I hope Danny Figurelli is crying himself to sleep tonight

If I’m reading the tiebreakers correctly, after Bama lost, all Aggy had to do was beat a lowly 1-5 Auburn and they would have clinched a spot in their very first SECCG last night (believe they would have been ahead of UGA and Tenn at 6-2). What a moment that would’ve been for them! Never go full Aggy.

The blindside hit he took on the corner blitz 100% rattled him. He played extremely scared after that IMO. I still believe in his talent, but ultimately 75% of football is about toughness and I think he might be Charmin. Hope he proves me wrong.

We got our shit absolutely pushed in during the first half, but good to see a semblance of a rebound in the 2nd. This is a LONG season and think we learned a valuable lesson that nothing is going to handed to us. But there is too much talent on this team to go quietly in the night. Confident we’ll bounce back and make a deep run.

We ate the rat poison. We bought into the sunshine. We ate the orange slices. But this team is not as bad as we played that half. Have some fucking pride and lock in. Show some fucking Texas fight and set the tone for the rest of the season.

This team fucks

Get ready for some football weather!

Any recs for Friday night in Detroit? Looking at pre-dinner drinks at Kamper Rooftop and dinner at Selden Standard, followed by live music somewhere (seems like Midtown is the hub for that?)

Will getting an Uber from the MGM be a pain?

Decent

Gabriel carved our ass up running and throwing. Maybe something about the southpaws against us. He’s a beast and I don’t envy you having him on the schedule next year.

Penix was unreal, hats off to him. Sometimes it’s pretty simple, in college football the team with better qb play wins 90% of the time.

January 1 is going to be a familiar feeling for you Seattle folks. Just like NHL, MLB, and NFL, your team’s season is about to be ended by a team from Texas.

Wow glad I found this thread. Some great info in here. Wife and I are headed down for the game and making a weekend out of it (Saturday-Tues) Any thoughts on NYE strategy? Doesn’t look like there are many tables available at the good spots, so we figured we’d eat a late brunch and drunkenly bop around the Quarter and find something casual to coat the stomach (any recs?). Also any general areas/streets/bars we should stick to? I imagine Bourbon will be a shitshow. Haven’t been to NOLA since I was a senior at UT so super pumped to be going back.

So now they say the shin was down
