was at the home of a friend who’s a 60-something theatre kid for a Labor Day cookout

after dinner we all decided to watch an episode of ST:TOS and she said “you pick the episode”

knowing her Shakesperian background i chose “Conscience of the King”

hadnt seen it in a few years, basic plot holds up really well, if you can get over the fact that a 35 year old Starship captain is trying to get in the panties of a 19 year old ingenue

the teenage bimbo also had one of the best lines in TV history:
quote:

And this ship…all this power, surging and throbbing yet under control. Are you like that, Captain?

Jameis covered for those employees. Great man. Snitches get stitches
just like Cam covered for the UF student who sold him the stolen laptop

shirley it’ll be a learing experience
quote:

We are literally at the very bottom of a 16 team SEC conference. The only team below us might be Vanderbilt right now. That is very hard to accept, but it is honesty.
we arent at the bottom so long as Arky is still in the SEC

but your point stands, we are looking up at most of the rest of the conference, and will be til we prove otherwise
quote:

Not making any opinions on comrade Golish right now. Not after one game. Same with the players. Gonna give them a while let's see what they do and how they respond
that part

Alexsey is everything i have always wanted as an HC at AU: intelligent, focused, passionate, committed to excellence, and seems like a great guy as well - i can’t imagine him ever embarrassing himself or the school like pretty much every one of his predecessors since Shug

that said, eventually he’ll have to prove it on the field - not this year, perhaps, but over the next 3 seasons
quote:

Fortunately, for us this year, we play four of the bottom five teams in the SEC. If we can win those games, it will show a lot.
win those and we get to 7-5, which is what i called in the predictions thread - here’s hoping

This QB nicknamed scooter immediately comes to mind
we sometimes forget that on his twisted 6-year journey through the various levels of FBS that he put up 3400 yards passing in his lone season at TX State

but TJ also averaged right at 1 yard per carry over his career, so BB has it all over him in that area
37-10 AU.

continue to struggle offensively before the USM defense starts to wear down and we get into a rhythm in the second half

defense looks solid but unspectacular

3 FGs from AMcP
pull for LSU and Kiff

It just means more….senseless bullshite :dope:

reminds me of Harlem Nights

i could almost excuse a 16 year old for creeping like this

but 61?

ffs, have some dignity, dude :casty:

We didn't need back to back Hail Mary's plus divine ref/conference intervention to give us 1 second back to win our game.
nor did our fans storm the field and celebrate like we won the CFP Championship after beating a directional school

What tangible, society altering thing, did all of this accomplish?
probably the very last time Trump, Tucker, Cruz, Loomer, Rubio, Boebert, RFK and Musk were all in the same room together :dunno:
quote:

We got one sack against that bum leg and that was in the first quarter. That's pathetic and Randy fricking approved.
the sack was before DJ’s ankle injury

i think what happened is Spavital recognized immediately that DJ’s mobility was severely compromised and started calling quick throws to limit the opportunities for the defense to get to the QB

Durkin failed to compensate and play tighter coverage and let the little white dude almost beat us by himself

hell, the announcers commented that the only time DJ threw on the move from the injury on was on the PAT attempt

hmm, Cube makes it sound like our OL wasnt as bad as they looked

but damn, they looked bad
the worst part for me was watching a guy who’d never caught more than 7 passes nor gained more than 78 yards in a game in his previous 4 seasons light us up for 12 and 154, including the 4th and 10 and the potential gamewinning TD

how do we always make these mid guys look like superstars when they play us?

Just to be clear so far we are the worst in the nation for opponent plays per game going into week 2.
and gave up only 16 points - and that was with 3 turnovers by our offense

if we just get a hand on the ball on play #99 we would have given up only 10 points
quote:

Clemson is the second worst at 94
and allowed 51 - and some of those were against LSU’s 3rd stringers

A small lead in the 4th ... would have been a loss without any doubt last year.
pretty much any of the last 5 years, going back to 2021 vs MSU

including that game, we’ve lost 13 times when we’ve had a 4th quarter lead
only a more dominant beatdown

it ended Tommy Bowden’s career and announced that Saban at the Capstone was a force with which to be reckoned in the SEC

poetic justice that Dabo’s HC career began and ended* with Clemson getting bent over on national TV


*they probably wont fire him immediately like they did Bowden because it’ll cost them way too much, but Dabo’s a dead man walking going forward

QB Sucks In His First Game, Season Is Doomed Despite Close Win Over P5 Team

quote:

He's looked like shite...it may be a long season for this offense
quote:

He was awful. If he's that fricking bad, just start (true FR backup) and be done with it.
quote:

Kodi Burns 1.5
quote:

After what I saw out of him, I'm trying to figure out how we'd be in worse shape with the true Freshman starting.


final stat line
passing: 9-19 (47.4%) for 99 yards, 5.2 ypa, no TDs or INTs
rushing: 9-27 yards, 3.0 ypc, no TDs
quote:

I knew the OL was bad. I did not know Byrum was so slow. Byrum is screwed.
i’m not convinced he’s at full speed, he had burst ability last year that was completely absent last night

OL looked subpar, but its still possible for them to improve - but thats far from a certainty

i remain optimistic we can get to 7-5, but like i said preseason that’s our ceiling this year
