Maryland is winning the turnover battle in Columbus.

My little joke immediately went south.

I suspect Deej knows the numbers, but feels that withou including Florida's huge elder population, the states' population totals are more in line.
I suspect he is just a Fucking Idiot and has no clue what he is talking about.

The only thing inaccurate about RedJim's post is he should have rounded down for
 Florida's population.

There are a fair number of schools that share THE's advantage of being the only Power 5 school in the state. Which is why Rutgers has been so dominant over the years.


2021 Florida RIVALS has the state at 35 four star and higher prospects. Ohio has 8.


Doing the actual "MATH" that would put the ratio at a little over 4-1. Which somewhat belies the population difference of roughly 2-1 the Skippy interjected as being relevant.
The two ratios are not comparable. Florida’s advantage over Ohio is the result of having twice the number of High School football players. Obviously it would have more superior players (at least on paper).
But it is a far cry from citing potential future players in stead of tracking what actually happened.
When you do that the numbers are different, but consistent.

Share of Blue Chip Recruits-SB Nation

State   '17          '16          '15          '14           '13
Texas   14.2%   15.3%   13.7%   11.6%   14.1%
Florida   12.7%   13.9%   14.6%   13.2%   14.1%
California   10.6%   13.3%   12.9%   10.7%   12.6%
Georgia   10.0%   7.7%   9.9%            7.2%    7.7%
Ohio           4.8%   3.5%           5.0%   4.7%            5.8%
Alabama   4.5%   2.4%           3.5%   3.4%            4.0%
Virginia   4.5%   1.8%.     3.8%   3.1%            4.0%
Louisiana   3.6%   6.2%           3.8%   5.0%            3.7%
Michigan   3.0%   2.7%.     1.2%   1.3

It is isn’t Rocket Science to infer that to win consistently you need to recruit globally, especially given the built in geographical advantage  in place for the SEC and the PAC 12.

Twice the number of high school football players doesn't equate to 4-1 any more than twice the population. Maybe someone else will explain it to you.

The other day I called the Gophers a pretty decent team. PSU was obviously overrated.

I don't want to KoD anything, but Trump couldn't carry Alabama?

Maybe he can call the Russians to help out.

The Alabama locker room at half time is going to be an interesting place.

An Illinois player was ejected for punching an MSU player in the ass. That is a free shot for anyone who wants it.

I thought it was the Macedonians who attacked from the rear.
