My dude - objectively the purpose of a defense is to limit points scored by opposing offenses. Not yards gained, not first downs but points.

Our Lions were head and shoulders better than anyone else in IL. By definition, objectively the best defense. See that wasnt hard and clearly serious

Please be nice, it is the holiday season.

Taking my cues from you GG. Happy you’ve noticed

Now I have to start coming up with reasons why my Big Red are truly #1 as well. Probably something to do with thrashing Dart - no disrespect intended

But in successive posts - snd news to me - you've referenced 'our Lions' and 'your Big Red'; so perhaps you've taken ownership of the IL and are thus entitled to calling the shots as you see them on postseason participation. Mazel tov!

... if Columbia led the league in third-down conversions, our Lurker friend would find a way to insist that should be the standard to determine the champion.
