Kelley Ford on Mississippi State's and Memphis' shocking rating. · The Jake Wimberly Podcast

  Here's two surprises, well at least for me, when I think about ten
• 0:03
  years because of some of the ups and downs. Memphis at number seventeen,
• 0:07
  and we know they've had some high powered offenses, but then some years where
• 0:10
  they're not. And then Mississippi State at twenty four. And I say that
• 0:13
  because yes, Dan Mullin had some high power offenses, but then you look
• 0:18
  at that the back end of his career, they're Assissippi State not so much.
• 0:22
  They had the Joe moorehead hiccup for two years, the Mike Leach pop
• 0:26
  off, and then the Zach Arnett deal last year. Still at twenty fourth.
• 0:30
  Yeah, and another thing to consider your jake again, it's a ten
• 0:34
  year period, all all weighted equally. Every year wit at equally. So
• 0:37
  you look at Memphis at seventeen, like you said, they have a seventy
• 0:40
  three point one ross four, Mississippi State at twenty four sixty nine point five.
• 0:44
  So in any given year, those numbers aren't going to jump out at
• 0:48
  you. You know, sixty nine percentile, seventy third percentile. That's good.
• 0:51
  Certainly, that's good, and you want to be closer to one hundred
• 0:54
  than not. But over the any given year. That's not really that much
• 0:59
  to write at home about in terms of the ruchelon of college football offenses,
• 1:03
  defenses, whatever unit we're talking about. But to average that over ten years,
• 1:07
  that's where it gets impressive, because you just talked about some of the
• 1:10
  ups and the downs of those programs, every single program all now one hundred
• 1:14
  and thirty four of them. Of course Kennisas State not included in this since
• 1:17
  they haven't met FBS for any of this periods, but all one hundred and
• 1:19
  thirty three that I ranked here over the last ten years, they've all had
• 1:23
  their own ebbs and flows, their own ups and downs, and so these
• 1:26
  two programs, in particular Memphis Mississippi State, have sustained a higher level of
• 1:30
  success. They've had more ups than downs relative to most of SBS football,
• 1:36
  and that's how they get the numbers that they have here in the graphic
