You made a great post but I disagree on the above. OM and/or Bama winning would be fairly significant upsets. Source: what I personally believe having watched these teams lately, and what Vegas believes.


I also defer to Vegas. Being a 6.5 point underdog means that the oddsmakers (the people who do this stuff for a living and don't have biases) give 70 percent chance of losing.

UGA in the Smart era has not looked rusty in bowl games.....but it does happen. UGA was off all last season....the SB was not an outlier for that team.


I think that our players looked past Notre Dame. I also think they looked past Ohio State in the Peach Bowl because they were from the Big 10 like Michigan and our players figured it'd be another game like the Michigan game from the previous CFP.

I don't think we'll look past Ole Miss because we're right back in the Sugar Bowl. In a sense it's a revenge game for both teams. Ole Miss players will be out for revenge after losing to Georgia earlier in the season, and Georgia players will be out for revenge against the Sugar Bowl.

From a mindset standpoint, Kirby couldn't have asked for a better venue.

The D tackle said that Gaston "is nothing special." This is the danger a coach has when every player on the team is allowed to speak with the media, which the CFP people makes them do. We've been there, done that.

Correct.

This is why the future appears bright.
Decided that New Orleans was dirty and went back to the Beau Rivage, which was dirty but less dirty.

Cringe and trash are both questionable words for men to say.

"Curate" is the latest one.

Just in the last few days, I've seen a commerical about how AirBNB will curate your own personalized travel experince and how NFL fans curate their own fashion style while wearing NFL licensed apparel.

I saw a stripper with a C section scar almost break her neck at the The Hustler Club in either 2014 or 2015. After that I amost went on a guided Katrina carnage tour. Would you like to know more about my trip???

The recruiting gurus told us that Cortez Smith was one of the surest bets in the signing class to be a multi-year starter. Either he's still hurt or not ready yet.

One way or the other we seem to be in good shape at center for the next few years regardless of what Drew Bobo does, even though getting Bobo back would be huge.
Fat coaches have been the only ones that work for Tennessee in the last 30 years. I think that it's smart on their administration's part.

For a team like ours with multiple injuries the extra time to heal is beneficial but the idle time also creates lack of continuity leading to less sharp execution.



Whatever we did before the Michigan Orange Bowl, I think we should do that again. That game could've ended up being 65-7 if Kirby had felt like being an a-hole.

^^^Any theories about why our athletic association would pursue this this hard and why Kirby would be okay with it? It's really not a lot of money in the grand scheme of things. Seems like Kirby would think that it's rocking the boat and could be a distraction in the locker room and could be used as negative portal recruiting against us. The lawsuit makes us look sleazy as shite, regardless of what really happened. Perception doesn't always have to be reality.

Eh, the score is deceiving. I don't think Georgia put together more than one long drive in that game. I think they barely had 300 yards of total offense.
They had a short drive from a blocked punt, a punt return, and an interception.
The last TD they got, was a short field from 10 yards after Bama failed to convert on 4th and 2. Ty Simpson had a check down route for the first down but instead tried to hit Germie Bernard across the field and threw it out of bounds.
If Bama converts that, gets momentum and score, it's 21-14 at that point. Not necessarily headed to a blowout.


Alabama had less than 100 yards of total offense going into the fourth quarter. The score was 21-0

Georgia's offense controlled the tempo of the game and only had to throw one pass further than 15 yards past the line of scrimmage. Kirby knew it would be that easy.

Even Roll Tide Willie recognized a beatdown and left the party early.

Congraulations on almost scoring 14 points.

Alabama losing draws eyeballs to TVs. It is what it is.



You may be stuck in the past. It's happened 7 times in the last 15 months.
A thread analyzing how some dude chose to spend his Saturday after Christmas is basically TMZ man gossip.
It will be interesting for sure. Way too many people around here are convinced that a bye is a bad thing based on two games last season.

Arizona State was a 13 point underdog and Boise was the DEI team. Arizona State actually overperformed.

Georgia was a shitty running team last year, not nearly as awful as Alabama this year, and Georgia had a quarterback starting his first career game. Notre Dame scored 14 points in 40 seconds.

So it comes down to last year's Rose Bowl, which was definitely a shitkicking.

How is anyone with actual legal knowledge going to be able to offer an informed opinion without having read the actual contract?



It took a 30 second internet search to find a PDF of the lawsuit...:

This looks like the crux of it. A real lawyer would probably have to tell us what the hell a Term Sheet is exactly.

Lawsuits intentionally try to make the other party seem shady and unscrupulous, and this one definitely makes us look shady and unscrupulous. Regardless of what really happened, why not wait until after the season to create a distraction like this? Why send out a summons one less than a month before the playoffs start? You know our players are talking all about it amongst themselves.:rolleyes:

On the evening of November 24, 2025, a deputy with the Boone County
Sheriff's Office delivered to Wilson’s home a summons and “application” to compel
arbitration that UGAA filed in the Superior Court of Athens-Clarke County in
Georgia.


---------------------------------------------

Near the end of Wilson’s sophomore season, the Classic City
Collective, Inc. (“CCC”)—a supporter-funded platform used by UGAA to license
student-athletes’ NIL rights that later purported to assign any rights to UGAA—
presented Wilson with a three-page term sheet (the “Term Sheet”). Ex. A.
5. UGAA and CCC offered Wilson the Term Sheet in the midst of his
preparation for Georgia’s game in the College Football Playoff—the biggest game
of the year. In late December 2024, a UGAA employee approached Wilson and
several of his teammates at Georgia’s football facility and directed the group to “go
upstairs.” Once upstairs, Wilson was presented with the Term Sheet, which was
already signed by CCC’s Co-Founder and then-CEO Matt Hibbs.
6. The Term Sheet contained a non-binding list of key terms that, if agreed
to, would “be used to create a legally binding document.”
Ex. A at 2. The Term
Sheet stated that it “preced[es]” a “full License and Option Agreement,” Ex. A at 2,


Electronically Filed - Boone - December 23, 2025 - 07:07 AM
and specifically provided: “In the event the parties agree to this Term Sheet, then
they shall work cooperatively to set forth these terms in a full legal contract including
all the standard provisions of NIL licensing agreements.”
Ex. A at 4. The Term
Sheet further stated that Wilson “should seek legal counsel before finalizing the full
License and Option Agreement.” Ex. A at 2.

7. Understanding the Term Sheet to be a set of terms that would be used
in reaching a legally binding NIL agreement, Wilson—without counsel present and
with UGAA employees telling him that time was of the essence—signed the Term
Sheet on December 21, 2024.


8. The parties never used the terms of the Term Sheet to create and execute
a “legally binding document” containing “all necessary contractual provisions.”
Ex.
A at 2. Indeed, CCC failed even to present Wilson what it promised in the Term
Sheet—a “full License and Option Agreement.” Ex. A at 2. The parties thus never
executed a legally binding agreement containing any of the provisions in the Term
Sheet.

Iowa State doesn't have Mark Cuban money.



I had no idea Indiana had one of the biggest payrolls in college football.
Instead of sulking and thinking that the world has gone to hell if you're Iowa State, why not take that same energy and say "let's be the next Indiana."
Social media outrage is the number 1 factor behind more and more people quitting social media.
New Orleans has always been a shithole, but it's a lovable shithole.
