Why do these "the team didn't win" excuses not work for Alex, but they work for Geno and his Big 12 record?

Post from milkman in another thread explains it very well...It's not very hard to understand:
People that ask this question clearly do not understand the difference between the college game and the NFL game.
The talent level of the best team in the NFL and the worst team in the NFL is marginal at best.
In the playoffs, the thing that separates one team from another is usually at QB.
In the college game, the thing that seperates one team from another is the overall talent level of the teams playing one another.
Syacuse was a more talented team.
Even with that difference in the levels, Geno Smith almost singlehandedly carried WVU to an Orange Bowl win last year against a far superior Clemson team.
