  1. Insurance companies killing people by denying essential care? Better call Luigi.
  2. You haven't been paying much attention, then. Granted, nobody's paying as much attention as we are, but the past 15 years have been a shitshow that we've only just started to improve upon. What's happened this year isn't the culmination of that change; it's the beginning. Now go grab a dictionary -- I'm sure your school's library has at least one book that hasn't been colored in yet -- and look up those words so you understand what I'm saying.
  3. what the fuck is RROE and why are we so bad at it
  4. Which one? The one on the left, or the one on the right? that gif is amazing and no apology needed
  5. The thing that strikes me about this year's team, though, is how we've got starters, absolute playmakers like Helm and Taafe, who developed and grew into those roles, who were hardly top notch recruits. When is the last time you remember THAT happening? That, even more than star rating, is why I'm here for the Sark arc. Guys are going to reach their potential here if they work at it. On the other hand, this is also where you see those same players' limits. Badly coached talent like aggy? We beat em. Well coached JAGs? We beat em. But well coached talent like Georgia? We're struggling. And yet, we still could've and should've won the SEC title game. They just got into our heads. But as for the running game, this is, I think, where that talent gap shows. With a guy like RoJo, or Bijan, or Brooks, we get yards on these runs that Wisner doesn't get. He doesn't have the speed to hit the edge against Georgia's LBs (you really saw this in our game in Austin), nor the strength to get YAC against Georg's front 7. It's great that we've made a feature back out of a 3rd stringer impressed into service after injuries, but it isn't going to impress the Bulldog D.
  6. No. Look at Georgia's recruiting rankings over the past few years. 2024 - #1 (us: #6) 2023 - #2 (us: #3) 2022 - #3 (us: #5) (lol aggy #1) 2021 - #4 (us: #15) 2020 - #1 (us: #9) Now there's all kinds of caveats to throw out here and there, but the bottom line is that they've outranked us year after year. We've gotten this far by doing more with less, getting guys like Wisner, Taafe and Helm to develop into really good players. Against a team like Georgia, you see it. Anyone else? Naw.
  7. don't kink shame me
  8. that db was juked outta his jock
  9. ok, Colt is doing ads *as* "backup QB"
  10. If my name were Oghenerukevwe Orhorhoro I'd force cold-callers to pronounce it correctly if they wanted to contact me. Captain Kirk sacked because, again, Atlanta's OL is ass. Meanwhile, Jefferson drops what should've been a sure TD for what are apparently the Vikings and not off-color Colts.
  11. Bijan gets the ball on 1st down and does Bijan things, but then a dumbass OL drags 'em back 5 to make it 2nd and 9. this is bad football
  12. Oghenerukevwe Orhorhoro with the big TFL. His friends call him "Ruke." Ruke Skywarker.
  13. I'm just a very serious person, you know. Complete lack of jocularity. So square, I'm used as a reference for construction tools.
  14. Why so negative about our offense?
  15. oh yeah? well YOU'RE regarded
  16. This is the kind of deep X's and O's football discussion that keeps me coming back to Surly day after day.
  17. Absolute legend.
  18. I laugh out loud every time I see that stiff arm.
  19. Also, fixed that for you.
  20. Any of y'all predicting more than a TD for Clemson... have you even watched any of our games? Have you not seen our defense play at all? Do you watch our defense like this or something?
  21. WTF is up with teams lining up shotgun/pistol on 1 yard and less situations? I've seen it so many times this weekend, and it keeps looking stupid every single time. I saw it work exactly once, but even then it was more luck/execution/effort, not because it was a great way to line up. So stupid.
  22. Putting this here in case y'all didn't see it elsewhere they're calling him "Derrick Hungry" now
