According to CFB commercials AI is as useless as tits on a boar hawg. Asking a computer how to do a pull up and read your HOA rules to you ain’t intelligent for either entity

One play and more commercials. CFB is almost unwatchable.

I was told Ohio State and Indiana were by far the best two teams. They may both be out after tomorrow.

. Statistically OSU defense is as good as there is in CFB. That’ll happen when you play a one game season even if you lose that game

Somehow I had forgotten Ryan Day was OSUs coach…they ain’t got a shot. How they managed it last year is akin to App State beating Michigan. Day is as good at choking as Linda Lovelace wasn’t….

SEC SEC SE….ahh frick it….

Did Texas score a touchdown during a commercial break? I went to check the smoker on a commercial and when they came out of commercial Manning was running out the back of the end zone.

The whole “x conference is better” crap is silly. The SEC produces more NFL talent than other conferences but it’s not always apparent on the field. In an 8 game season SEC teams will play 4 teams with a bunch of NfL talent and 4 with some NFL talent. In other conferences that’s 1 of the former and 7 of the latter. That takes a toll over a season. The only way that the SEC dominated, and it was mostly 1 team, was stacking NFL talent at every position. That’s not happening at the moment, may never happen like that again. The combination of weak schedules and similar rosters in August means the SEC is no longer dominant. It’s pretty clear. That said no one will be shocked when UGA and Bama show up in Miami for the natty. They are still stacked with talent and will put a pile of players in the NFL.

What was the distance to make on the punt? He had some green in front of him.

Anyone who thinks Ole Miss rolls over and plays dead is an idiot. It wouldn’t be shocking if UGA loses or wins a close one. It wouldn’t be surprising if UGA wins by 2 scores. It’d be shocking if Ole Miss did. That’s the difference. Ole Miss must be perfect to stay close. That’s possible. UGA can make a few mistakes and keep it close. That’s not insignificant.

UGA has an advantage on defense and is infinitely better on special teams. Watch UGA on PAT defense. There is a reason good kickers miss FGs against UGA and punters have days that aren’t quite up to par for them….they have seen the pressure UGA gets on special teams and it throws them off sync. You don’t have to block kicks but if you can make a 48 yard punt a 35 yard punt that’s a free first down. It happens in every game UGA plays and there’s not a lot you can do but rush the process and hope for the best.

The more important item is its Kirby Smart season. UGA tends to play to perfection in the post season. UGA lost this game last year in a lackluster showing that anyone being objective recognizes. That is unlikely to occur again….the most shocking thing possible is UGA show up unprepared and flat. It could happen…. It’s highly unlikely

I've never enjoyed it more than I do now.

I get that. There has always been some attrition as some fans get older….i have 4 UGA season tickets and 4 SECCG tickets and only go to a couple of games a year….used to never miss one but it’s just too much at a time of year when hunting and fishing and yard work seems more fulfilling….thats a function of age LOL. I don’t know that younger fans are going to be financially able to do that…I can’t imagine how a 30 year old would buy UGA season tickets for example. I’m sure they do but it’s not cheap.

A lot of the lesser bowls have been played in half empty stadiums for over 20 years. The fact that the inmates are running the asylum (letting high school kids rule over adults) is what is hurting the sport

Certainly part of it but the kids don’t schedule 17% of the regular season against teams that aren’t even in the same league (rent a win games) and in most conferences another couple of games against in conference opponents who aren’t even competitive one out of 30 or more years. The kids also don’t have a lot of say in the University and the conference inking massive television deals that require significant changes in the ebb and flow of the game in order to sell Dr Pepper and car insurance. Finally the kids have some say in playing in games long after the games are meaningful but only one year of their 3-4 years of eligibility. If one opts out of a meaningless bowl game as a freshman they’d never see the field again.
