I really want a Bama Ohio State final. And I want to shut their mouths forever. That would be a hyped championship game if there ever was one.

Ideally ND wins out. Oklahoma blow it. We eliminate Ga. Ohio State wins out. We get ND in the semis. Easy win. Ohio State beats Clemson. And then the beat down.


This would be a perfect scenario, and I hope it plays out that way. It'd be great to stomp Notre Dame again and then get revenge on OSU for 2014 all in the same season.

I have a feeling UGA will drop a regular season game. I'm not sure against who, but I think it will happen. When it does, we'd hand them their second loss in the SECCG and eliminate them from contention. Georgia is a good team, but they are not BAMA, and Kirby Smart is not Nick Saban.

I believe everyone jumped on the Kirby bus way too soon. He's done a nice job in a weak division and with two easy schedules in back to back to seasons, and I'll give him that. He can recruit. I'll give him that. But the idea that he's going to manage his roster, manage complacency, expectations, and entitlement "just like Nick Saban" is ridiculous. With all this early success, the longer he's there the more difficult things will become to manage.

Also, I've watched UGA this season and I already don't believe they are near as mentally tough and physical as Nick Saban coached football teams. They are talented, yes, but talent alone won't beat BAMA. They've got some Charmin in them imo.

You don't take over the role of GOAT through osmosis. You don't copy the genuine article and suddenly the copy is as good as the original. Kirby is a copy of Nick Saban, not Nick Saban, and it's going to be proven true with a little time. He's a good coach and I'm not trying to say he's garbage, but he's not Nick Saban. I don't even think he's Urban Meyer. He may prove to Jimbo Fisher in quality, but he's got to prove it first.

Sorry for the rant on UGA in the middle of your Trevor Lawrence thread (maybe said with the tone of Forest Gump having a fight in the middle of a Black Panther party would be appropriate LOL), but I get tired of all these assumptions about the greatness of UGA.

Tua would have 350 and 3 TDS on Syracuse right now.

Trevor Lawrence just got smashed and taken out of the game. He is so lost. He's over his head, and Clemson's offense is very limited.

16-7 Syracuse over Clemson right at the end of half. Trevor Lawrence just got concussed imo and I doubt he comes back in. Clemson may be going down.

Clemson is what I thought they were.

After the way our game is going I’m glad it will atleast be a hell of a game. Dabo might be feeling like he made a mistake right now.

Dabo took a shot. He could never beat Bama with the other guy. But this cats not ready.

They would have lost to A&M earlier this year if not for Bryant. Jimbo rushed to this decision and it looks like it may have bit him in the arse.

Nope.

They lose a game to a nobody every year. It's the main thing that causes me concern about Dabo taking over at Bama

Clemson finally takes the lead. It looks like they're going to luck out this timw, but they have a lot of work to do. I think we'll see more games like this one this season.

The only reason Clemson won was because they have the 5* horses. Syracuse would take anyone from their 2nd string and play them on Saturday.
