Notot talking about being buried alive or getting your hand stuck in a swimming pool drain.

Today's game – Defense can't figure out how to tackle Riley Leonard because Riley Leonard has crazy legs and is like a Boar's Head brand Haynes King. Our offense comes out slow and it turns into one of those "we just need to get to hafltime and regroup" kinds of games. Those kinds of games are never fun, even when we come back and win.

Odd year honestly, nothing would surprise me, but Kirby tends to rise to the occasion.

Just having a game where nothing is working on offense. That’s what I’ve been fearing in the lead up to this one.

You must be talking about the Boars Head plant that got shut down for safety reasons. Riley Leonard can't physically do what Haynes King did to us that night. Haynes King had the game of his life....over 400 total yards, over 300 in the air, 5 tuddies, and took brutal hit after brutal hit. It still wasn't enough to beat us.

I'd contend that Riley Leonard is the way better runner and athlete and will be drafted way earlier than Haynes King, but it's all good.

Yes, but he can't throw. He simply doesn't have it in him to throw the ball downfield.

King tore us up because he was (uncharacteristically) on fire throwing the ball. We couldn't stack the box nor could we man up the receivers or charge the safeties down. He was wreaking havoc on our LBs, too.

Notre Dame looks like they'll close as the favorite after being the underdog all wee. Weird shite. Hopefully it's not one of those "somebody knows something" situations.

My only bet is Dillon Bell +23.5 yards at -115.

This is why I picked ND. Regardless of today outcome… Does anyone really wanna be prepared on a platter for OSU? They’re a fricking buzz saw waiting to happen. You know they want revenge on us.

Kirbys two main concerns involve making tackles at the point of contact and holding onto the football.

If we do those two things well, we should be in a great position to win the game.

IMO, there's a standard amount of over reaction to OSU's last two games, just as there was to the game before those two. I thought OSU was the favorite even after they lost to Michigan, but I think they're also not as unbeatable as they looked against Tennessee and Oregon. Those two teams played horrible pass defense that would've made a lot of offenses look really good even without Jeremiah Smith. Had trouble with basic concepts like picking up a back or receiver in motion.

Also, both of their OL's played poorly. Tennessee ended up using a couple of former walk-ons who have never been good enough to face top college DL. Their OL was never playoff quality. Saw multiple times in both games where OSU pass rushers were hardly touched.

In that matchup, if it happens, the biggest question will probably be same as today. Can Georgia run a diverse offense, maintain drives and score points with a (still relatively) unproven qb? I believe we've scored >30 pts in every playoff victory so far. Don't know if we'll need that today, but I'd feel better if I knew we'll score that much.

Recency bias and instant overreaction, Jesus.

I am seeing it play out which is the moment is too big for Gunner. I can't imagine the pressure he is under.

Fumbles and that stupid sideline penalty where the ref was slightly brushed.

Meanwhile, Georgia is dominating the statistics.
