There's too much material out there for the majority of Dawg fans to say boo about anything if Gunnar doesn't play well and Georgia loses
They kinda both stunk this past Saturday, though you do have to give Stockton some leeway since he wouldn't have been practicing with the first stringers like he will be now. He's got a good 3 weeks to get ready. Stay tuned!

Would expect nothing less than semi-chaos based on this year.

Only 2 of the last 10 teams to win National Champions have won with a 'pocket QB' - Burrow and Jameis

I think Beck has been dealing with really bad skill guys, but Gunnar at least adds a mobile factor


PS Not one First Round Game is within a touchdown on the betting lines
Notre Dame -7.5
Texas -11
PSU -9
Ohio State -7.5

You don't consider JJ a pocket QB? Burrow ran the ball a lot more than JJ.

You're right! Didn't even look up McCarthy assuming he ran a fair amount
Wasn't the case

3 out of 10

The only redeeming thing about being a part of this whiny, entitled conference ( ) is the weekly masterpiece that is "SEC Shorts."



Absolutely amazing.

The speed with which they get out content should be studied

- The Penn St. v. Top-5 teams joke.
- The pepper spray
- SC getting taken out by the refs
- The "Bama Protocol" being initiated
- FSU on crutches

Everything.

The short has everything.

I'm stunned by how good it is.

The SEC Roll Call with Matt Mitchell is pretty funny and spot on as well

Weren't there five attendees in years like 2016 with Lamar Jackson, Deshaun Watson, Jabrill Peppers, Baker Mayfield and Dede Westbrook?

Probably better not to have an ASU guy roaming around NYC.

Historically, our guys have been a little too eager to party and get themselves into trouble.

I was looking at making the trip to Orlando, but I’ve done that bowl trip before. I don’t like going on the same bowl trips. A week in Orlando sounds fun, but I don’t think I’d find enough to do that I haven’t already done.

Do any of you see conferences going to a playoff format for the conference championship as conferences get bigger and bigger and so many teams don’t play each other? Divisions are a thing of the past, but what happens when you have more than 2 teams with the same conference record at the top? I know they have tie breaker policies. We all know that tv revenue is what drives college football, so does a conference say we’re taking our top 4 after the regular season and having a 4 team playoff?

As these conferences continue to get larger and larger, I can see a situation where 4 teams could all have 8-0 records and a decisions like that is made.

What they should do is relegate 14 teams. Bring the total down to 120 even.

12 ten-team conferences. Nine-week conference schedules. Everyone plays everyone. At the end you have 12 conference champions for your 12-team playoff. Keep the polls and let them determine the four byes.

Trying to decide if my favorite part was PSU missing the Win Against Top 5 Team guy, or the crippled FSU guy hitting Bama. Hilarious stuff.
