How much money did ND save extending MF before he beat Georgia and made it to the final 4 ?

You aren't understanding some of the points im making but trying to counter the points anyway and its not working.

I'll just say this: when i refer to "skill" im referring to the opposite of luck im not referring to recruiting rankings specifically.

"skill" is what a team can effect/impact
"luck" is external events (events out of a team's control) that impact/effect the outcome of the game

"skill" is an all encompassing term in this case used to describe a programs production and talent.

The more quarters two teams play against each other, the larger the sample size grows and better the opportunity gets for the more skilled of the two teams (the more talented and more productive of the two teams) to rise to the top of the scoreboard and win.

In many college football games 4 quarters is enough to get *some idea* of who the better team is, but if you turned a football game into a best of 7 series (where potentially 28 quarters were involved instead of just 4 quarters), we'd DEFINITELY know by the end of the series who was the better of the two teams (and luck would play way less of a factor in determining the winner)

TLDR: In college football, because the sample size is so small (just 4 quarters), even teams in the FCS or G5 FBS can sometimes steal wins over much more skilled P4 teams by mere luck (the NIU vs ND game being a perfect example)

Again, this is where you look like a fool or you're just too dumb to understand.

High School skilled athletes still need to be developed. It's a very big step to go from HS football to college football.

These 17-18 year olds are still developing those skills. In fact they are developing those skills through college and even into the pro's for those that get there.

A 4 star athlete can easily surpass a 5 star athletes skill level over a 3-4 year period, and it happens more often than not. It depends on the work ethic and desire to get better and improve.

Coaching has a lot to do with this as well. Coaches that know how to develop talent and skill.

All of these factor into how well a team is going to perform. Take Alabama for example, they lost 4 games to far less skilled teams, why? what changed? Saban, who was a great developer of talent retired, and his successor can't develop as well as Saban.

you talk about Georgia having so much more talent and skill than ND, yet ND did a great job developing those 4 star athletes out of high school into 5 star athletes. Georgia on the other hand has far more 5 star athletes out of HS, yet they played like 4 star athletes this season.

Coaching and development are for more important than what star rating a 17 year old kid is coming out of HS.

Again until you understand this concept you'll forever be someone that doesn't have a clue.

lol at you taking recruiting rankings as gospel when they are in itself, projections


Lmfao

“Not to mention they were an offense-leaning team this year and their veteran starting QB was out vs ND”

Wrong again (which is redundant w/ you). Georgia had the 24th ranked defense in the country & the 37th ranked offense in the country. How can a stats genuflector like yourself miss that?
