  1. I suspect PK's defenses look worse when measured by success rate than scoring or other metrics. He'll give up yards and first downs, but the other team will have to earn them. Teams will have a bunch of 4-8 yard gains, but can't string enough of them together to score. It seems once a game the other team puts together a long TD drive where they convert several third downs and an explosive play or two. It's frustrating to watch, but not many teams can do it consistently. Arkansas only did it once. More often than not, Texas gets a turnover, a sack, a tackle for loss. That's exactly what happened when Collins forced the fumble.
  2. His career after beating Georgia has to be one of the worst coaching flame-outs in history. He was 39-14 over 4 years as a head coach with two top-10 seasons (2015 and 2019) and a Sugar Bowl win. Then he gets fired by Texas two years later, has a cup of coffee in the NFL, and gets fired by Florida Atlantic in less than 2 years for going 6-16. Lots of guys fail to live up to expectations, but dayuum! Plenty of guys had success and didn't pan out: Guys who had success at a lower tier and couldn't win at a higher level - Charlie Strong, Scott Frost, a bunch of other guys Cavemen who caught lightening in a bottle - Gene Chizik, Ed O Guys who were in the right place at the right time - Sonny Dykes, Dave Aranda Terrible human beings - Art Briles, Joe Paterno Addiction - Sark at USC How many coaches went from success at the highest level to G-5 schools that quickly based solely on their record and personality?
  3. This is what LSU gets for trying to be something it's not. It's like a bizarre inversion of reality where reading at a third grade level makes you more successful. It makes no sense most places, but Louisiana isn't most places. They need someone like Les Miles or Ogre. You know... morons. Also, too, I hope they keep Kelly forever.
  4. They don't seem to apply that same logic to Texas' win over Michigan.
  5. A forced fumble is always good, but that crushed whatever hope Arkansas had.
  6. I giggled when Jesse Palmer said you couldn't execute a RB screen any better. And then the replay shows Conner just running around not really doing anything downfield.
  7. Sark has earned the benefit of the doubt for just about any WR or RB he wants.
  8. I have so many questions. This is crazy even by Louisiana standards.
  9. But I hear New Haven is really nice...
  10. Huh? I think you misspelled intermediate passes over the middle. Georgia's game plan was to stay disciplined/ignore misdirection, pressure Ewers, and tackle. The exact opposite of willingly giving Texas the edge. They executed it really well, which meant there were opportunities deep if Ewers could find them. Vandy tried to do the same with worse athletes and tackling.
  11. Ignore the haters Riley, you're doing great! You can't really evaluate a coach until at least year 15 so USC shouldn't make any rash decision.
  12. During their bye week, UGA self scouted the offense and realized they suck at passing.
  13. Well, overconfidence won't be a problem. That's the most unprepared the offense has looked since Strong was here.
  14. There's plenty of blame to go around. Sark sucked, Ewers sucked, the OL sucked. Basically, the whole offense sucked.
  15. That adds to the misery of this game. Beck played like shit and the outcome was never really in doubt.
  16. Huh? They got humiliated for most of the game.
  17. This felt like one of those losses to TCU back when Patterson spent months preparing for Texas.
  18. This is where I'm at. Tackling was sloppy and they got bailed out by some dropped passes, but they weren't embarrassed. Sark and the offense were a whole different story.
  19. You must be new here. It means they're clutch.
  20. Venables is sucking too hard. He needs to pace himself.
  21. I mean, he's not wrong. And neither is he.
  22. I'm pretty sure they mean Tennessee
  23. None of this matters as long was Texas keeps winning. How many elite teams has Georgia played the last few years? For the most part, they've dominated lesser opponents. The better question is how have they fared against the handful of teams with similar talent. They are 1-3 against Bama and 1-0 against OSU. Who else? Kirby Smart beats the teams he's supposed to beat and is a coin flip against other elite teams (actual elite teams, i.e. not Ole Miss). Sark appears to be on the same trajectory, he just has to keep doing what he's been doing.
