Both the Auburn and UGA scores were 21-21 at halftime and the exact score at the end of the game.. why then, does ESPN say Auburn "hangs on" and UGA "destroys" "demolishes" Clemson?




UGA played well, but so did Auburn. Is this just because Clemson was ranked?

Cuz yall are the reigning SEC Champs vs an unranked opponent that was winless in the conference last year.


UGA had a shite year last year, and was playing a ranked opponent.

Where does it say UGA demolishes or destroys Clemson?

Probably. Expectations. Last years success will hurt you this years. Unfair? Yes. Keep winning and you will regain the accolades and attention.

I personally don't care what they say. From the games I watched AU, UGA & A&M all looked to be the better (WEEK ONE) teams. It's all gonna play out.

Maybe cause Clemson scored their last points of the game at the 7:28 mark of the 2nd qtr. & UGA proceeded to score the next 31 points in a row...

After Clemson missed a FG at the 4:28 mark of the 2nd qtr. they never advanced past their own 31yd line with 15 total yds & 1 1st down for the next 34:28 of the game...

Because espn hasn't realized Clemson lost their entire offense and thinks UGA beat someone good.

I think I see where smart Dawgs answered in detail all your concerns here, was their anything else we could do in easing the insufferable win from last Saturday?

A lot of people thought Arky was going to cover the spread. They didn't. The first half was ugly but we did a complete 180 the 2nd half. It's too early to tell how good any team is and I hope going into the future more people will understand that. Preseason rankings are shite and we should treat it as such.

1. Clemson is a much better team than Arkansas.

2. UGA was more dominant in the 2nd half than Auburn was, despite the identical score.

B/c espn is a shitty arse sports channel. For being sports experts, they sure do frick up a lot of shite! I only watch espn if a game is on, and even then it would be best to put it on mute.

The bottom line is that Clemson is A LOT better than Arkansas.
