So true about xCJL.  We would destroy good teams and definitely lose to UMass of UConn.

Disagree about losing to UMass. xCJL was 10 - 0 in OOC games against non-power teams from 2005 onward. The average final score was 31 - 14 so while you probably wouldn't have seen a UMass blowout by xCJL, we would have handily won the game.

These games tended to go one of two ways under xCJL: 1) Jump out to an early lead and then kind of let the other team hang in there. 2) Struggle the whole way through and explode in the 4th. He never lost the games, but never dominated them, either. They were normally pretty unsatisfying.

This game under xCJL probably would have looked something like the 2009 WKU game -- maintain a 7 - 10 point lead through 3 quarters and then put it away in the 4th. The defense would have done a good job of shutting down the UMass O, but they'd stay in the game until the 4th due to dumb penalties and a miscue here and there. The O would underwhelm until the 4th and then the talent gap would become evident and the tired UMass defense would give way to 2 - 3 scores. The game would be closer than the final score indicates.

This is a joke hypothetical thread.
