This round seems so much more rushed than the other two. They even had the Fiesta Bowl parade before either team or their fans arrived.


Yeah-I don't understand this. Both games should be played on Saturday, and the final should be played on the following Saturday. Probably ESPN and the NFL TV scheduling, if I had to guess.

Right . The longer break should be between the semifinals and the final. But we must all bow in reverence to our god the NFL . Cant go against them. It’s so stupid

Roasted one of my very best friends today that’s a UGA alumni.. I let it simmer for a few days and hit him with the “have you seen the twitter meme of the Trinidad Chambliss dragon?”

He says no.. I said it’s him dragon these nuts all over Kirby’s face. Go Rebs !!

Phoenix update - Rebel’s dominated the airport today. No joke, half the people had on Ole Miss gear. We’re at a hotel in Chandler and there were a dozen unrelated parties of Rebs checking in. I could count the Miami fans I’ve seen on two hands.

Friends that are there are predicting 70/30 Reb fans or more.

Large Rebel contingent on the flight I came in on last night. Only a handful of Miami fans.

Officially game day. Excited but also getting a bit nervous. I’m sure tomorrow morning it’ll really sink in that we truly are playing to go to a national championship and it’s not just a dream. Quite possibly the biggest game in our athletic departments history (sorry 22 baseball). Whatever happens tomorrow night it’s been one hell of a fun ride. Hotty Toddy!

I'd rank em 1961 Sugar Bowl, 2022 CWS, 2021 NCAA WGolf vs OSU. If we win it all, that'll easily take the top spot

Too excited to sit still. Too anxious to move.

Kickoff feels like it’s a week away.

Going to be a wild game. Miami is loaded but Mario Cristobal reminds me a lot of Miles with his in game management, despite this nice playoff run. Gonna give the coaching edge to Ole Miss. also a team if destiny vibes with the Lane saga

I’m so anxious to see us run the tempo and how Miami responds to it. I really think that’s the neutralizer to their Defense

Also: whatever we do, do not kick or punt it to Toney. Can NOT let him take it to the house. That will be the difference in the game

Like most football games, we need our offense to remain on time and stay in short yardage situations - and we need to stop the run.

It’s funny, but I think the winner take all game against Arkansas in the CWS semis felt bigger than the final. Because it was our only elimination game all tournament. Every other game we knew we would get another shot if we lost even the final. Obviously winning it all meant the most, but that was the most electric atmosphere I have ever felt.

Also, we need our next hype video to either be Tim Elko or DeLucia
