If he wasn't so incredibly dumb (in the classroom), he would've made a pretty good quarterback.

His arm talent was incredible.

Sporting News released their bowl projections

They have Bama vs Oklahoma and Oregon vs FSU in the playoffs and Oklahoma vs Oregon in the Championship game.

They have us in the Chick-fil-A Peach bowl vs UCF.

Oklahoma is up there solely because they beat Bama but yet we are only good enough to play UCF. But I like being the underdog.

You don't understand.

We were just "lucky".

I'm really surprised at the lack of love we're getting from the media right now. I understand we had luck on our side for a few games last year and won some close ones, but in a few of those games we had nice leads and let the other team back in the game.

It doesn't bother me and I like being the underdog just surprising

As long as the selection committee can tell the difference we're okay.

I can't wait to see how fans of a team at 5 or so will reacts towards the committee when they get left out and how much drama it creates in the media. They thought the BCS was bad. They'll have the playoff expanded in no time just to calm the mess down.

Justin Garrett moved back to Star will share the role with Therezie. Not sure what that means for Mackenro.

If Justin is as good as we hear, would be cool to have him and Therezie on the field at the same time on some plays…

Here is the deal - Carl and my son played together in high school at Milton. When he hurt it in the spring he went to Dr. Andrews and he only saw a strain (due to swelling). Carl began rehab and had full range of motion. He went back to Dr. Andrews to get cleared and the MRI showed a partial tear. He had surgery taking a ligament from his hip. Originally the thought was that he would miss the entire year. He is so far ahead of schedule that the projection is that he may miss the first two games. His return date is not firm.
Carl Lawson update (kind of).

From a poster on another board.

just FYI, Phil Steele doesn't have us in his top 5

1. FSU
2. Alabama
3. Ohio State
4. Oklahoma
5. UCLA

so we're somewhere between 6 and 11 according to him...but then again we weren't in the top 40 preseason for him last year

I think we are in the best place we could be. No one is picking us to win the NC even as good as we should be but if we win we will easily still end up in the playoff. Possibly even high enough that if we slip up early on we could still make the playoff by winning out.

Oh, I'm sure he'll throw us in his "Dark Horse" category like he always does to hedge his bets.

I still don't know who Phil Steele is or why I'm supposed to care about his opinion.

Side note: Has anyone seen Jaylon Denson's huge back tattoo? It's a big arse lion head with the writing "Heart of a Lion Since 1993"

I think Phil Steele is the guy who put Duron Carter on his preseason All-American list.

Also last year or year before had Bama's center as the best center in the sec. The funny part was the kid wasn't even a starter. Bama's center was injured out for the season so this guy got moved in and phil steel automatically named him the best in the league. Even bama posters on the rant said the kid sucked lol
