Watched a good bit of football yesterday.

1. OU/AU-While I always enjoy seeing those giant walking turds lose, the no call for the OU TD was terrible. Should’ve been 15 yd unsportsmanlike conduct on OU. OU seemed like they were doing shady stuff the entire game. Make no mistake, OU has a good, maybe really good team. Really good defense. John Mateer is good but he looked very mortal, especially in the first half.

2. Florida-Miami. Gator defense=Good. Gator offense=Horrible. Carson Beck looked really mediocre. Can’t believe Miami spent $4 million (maybe more) on that goober. Billy Napier is the definition of Dead Man Coaching. The real question is does Florida fire him now or at the end of the season?

3. South Carolina-Missouri. Kind of surprised me a little. I thought having Sellers back for the entire game would make a huge difference. Apparently not.

4. Clemson-Syracuse- I was a little surprised but on the other hand, not really. Teams aren’t afraid of Clemson anymore and Klubnik is a wildly overrated QB. He’s serviceable but not elite. What does Clemson do about Dabo? How do you fire a guy that won two NC titles there? Or do you stand idly by while he drives the program into the dirt? Tough decision.

5. Texas and LSU-when will these two play someone with a pulse?

6. Indiana-Illinois-I was so glad to see Illinois lose big. Cannot stand their arrogant tub of lard HC Brett Bielema. Indiana maybe proving last year wasn’t a fluke?

Looking forward to some really good games this coming week.

It made a massive difference. USCe went on the road against a pretty good ranked Missouri team and had a very good chance to win. If Luke Doty is playing QB instead of Sellers, they lose by 30.

Brent Venables is a massive piece of shite who steals signals to help his defensive scheme.

He's also addicted to booger sugar.

Something going on with the officials in Norman. Remember the touchdown that was called back last year by Alabama? Worst call I have ever seen.

Yet no sympathy from other fanbases like they’re defending AU now. Screw em

Give him next year to see where it goes. If it's bad again give him an ultimatum about NIL and the portal and pray that he lets his emotions get the better of him and resigns.

They owe him like $60 million and Clemson isn't a rich school.

OU's defense is good but Arnold threw all over them in the first half. And then in the second half he held onto the ball for like 6 seconds every time he dropped back, yet they kept dropping him back, and never really tried to commit to the run.

Matteer is talented but nothing special, very odd delivery. The Oklahoma OL and RBs looked small. The wrs looked pretty good but small. Their DBs were no good. Real impressed with their d front

No worse than the screwing Bama got in Knoxville in 22.

17 penalties 130yds to Tenn 40yds

With a bullshite pass interference that cost Bama the game after the ball was intercepted.

I being saying it ever since that game. Fire Sankey. He’s the problem with the SEC. He’s fricked up the best conference in the country.

One game you didn’t mention; Wisconsin vs Maryland. Wisconsin is truly awful.

South Carolina is going to take a major step back this year. I checked their schedule. Could easily see them going 5-7

I’d hire a GM to run NIL independent of him.

If he doesn’t like it he can leave.

But his temper tantrum the other day before they got embarrassed by a Syracuse team without their QB tells me exactly who he is: a mediocre coach who made his reputation based on three elite QBs, an outstanding DC and buying recruits through that church on the lake they have up there.

Now his ego is too monumentally big to do any introspection or make real changes and so he just throws temper tantrums when anyone dares to challenge him on the issues they have because he views himself as untouchable.

I’ve always thought that without elite QB play that Dabo is a decent but not great HC. Cole Klubnik is NOT elite.
