FSU got to 12-0 by beating a subpar LSU team and then outclassing shitty to mediocre ACC competition… Louisville will probably roll over for them. And then FSU will lose by ~40 in the semis.
Please, please bring Kevin Johns as OC... His offense relies pretty heavily on the QB run -- straight into the teeth of SEC front 7s... Kevin Johns + A&M's offensive line = 3rd string QB playing by week 6.
Gordon had 38 touches against BYU… And 30 touches against Houston… That isn’t a sustainable workload — especially against this TX defense… Bowman will probably have 30-40 pass attempts, so Gundy will need him to magically overcome the turnover bug overnight.
Ha, you must not follow Duke sports closely… The entire campus rallied behind Elko and the football team (see UNC last year or Notre Dame this year). In the rare times when Duke football is winning, they have a small but avid fanbase. Duke’s AD fully understands that making football competitive is the #1 priority. Duke Bball is obviously huge, but football is the main revenue driver (and expense) in college athletics. And Duke doesn’t want to get left behind in the next round of re-alignment…
Hooray for us, I guess. Florida has won 2 titles in the 2000s (‘06 and ‘08). Texas has won 1 and played for another (‘05 and ‘09). Both programs have churned through coaches since then… I know you’d like to believe we’re special, but in the modern era, UF has achieved a similar level of success…
Lol. You do realize that UF is almost identical to Texas right? Won a championship in ‘08 but have struggled since… They’ll eventually be a marquee matchup again — it’s all cyclical.
Just finished reading “Napoleon: A Life” by Andrew Roberts to pre-game this… But I’m nervous because I saw an interview where Ridley Scott compared Napoleon to Hitler (which doesn’t lead me to believe he’ll portray Napoleon accurately at all lol)….
Duke's AD understands that their football program needs to win to keep the budget afloat... Duke Bball is obviously huge, but football is the real money maker.
So Traylor had the unique privelage of serving under the worst Texas HC of all time and the worst Arkansas HC of all time... Hope he applies all of their teachings at his next stop!
I bet A&M lets 2-3 years go by and waits for the story to die… Then we’ll start seeing articles saying that Jimbo’s payments aren’t coming in… Prolonged court battle ensues, and the aggies either play the sovereign immunity card or get Jimbo to settle…
As a Duke football fan (we exist), the big question mark around Elko is whether he can field an offense without Riley Leonard… Leonard is truly phenomenal and a big component of his success at Duke.
