    By definition, to throttle someone is to beat a team by 40 or more points.

    Conversely, to beat someone easily, typically means to win by 20 or more.

    Hopefully, that clears all the confusion on the matter.

    Yeah, no way would UF beat USC by 40. Maybe I should have said UF would beat USC with little problems. Say by 14.

    Yeah if it's over 30 but not over 40, it's a shellacking. So go tell everyone!

    If it's over 60, it's called a Nebraska, which refers to the Kansas, Iowa State, Colorado State teams of the 80s and 90s they played.
