  1. Don't even worry about the Georgia loss, that's kiddie shit. We got our teeth kicked in last year in Austin and still made it. The loss to UF did us in. People really can't see the forest for the trees regarding that loss. We went from #9 to #27 after that loss. We dropped completely out of the top-25. Even getting rag dolled by UGA only dropped us a few spots because, well, that's kind of what was expected playing a top-5 team in Athens when you lost to a hopeless, downtrodden, directionless "team."
  2. That loss alone crippled us and is the absolute as to why we aren't making the playoffs. I don't care about ND losing to Northern Illinois, that loss quite literally was so bad it took us from #9 to #27 in one weekend. That's how bad it was. You don't just go fronm top-10 to not even top 25 if you're looked at as a pariah who lost to Billy Napier. Losing to Napier was so bad it made the ND loss to NI look like they lost to 2023 Michigan in comparison.
  3. He was a freshman, man. I'll take Saban's word that he was the best RB they faced over message board hand wringing. Before his injury he could break tackles and he had speed. He's a shell of what he was. People hang on to the fumble against UW, but the dude has 9 carries for 64 yards and a TD at 7.1 ypc a clip. Dude still had almost 700 yards rushing @ 5 ypc and 5 TD's, with 156 yds receiving. That's over 800 yards from scrimmage, and he shared the ball with Brooks for most of the season. Had he not torn every ligament his knee had to offer, he was going to absolutely punish people with the muscle he added. I really don't get the hate. He has exactly 1 fumble in 186 carries. That's, uh, pretty fucking good. Yeah, it sucked that it came at the wrong time, but people are living in some kind of time distortion or alternate dimension regarding his abilities. I wouldn't say "quiet." Dude has done really good for a first year starter with 2,763 pass yards, 23 TDs with only 7 INT's. Not to mention a 67.7% against top 25 teams, and 62% overall. People also shouldn't forget he has 7 rushing TD's. 34 total TD's and 7 INT's is more than solid. He's grown up before our eyes, he's processing the speed of the game much faster, and he's not trying to fit a square peg into a round hole by forcing the ball into triple coverage for the most part. He went from being enigmatic to understanding the assignment. Next season he's going to be indomitable and inexorable. He's already showing his rating and now after he pummeles aggy on Friday we can look ahead for him hulking out. I understand the hesitations and reservations regarding Wingo (who is on his way to close to 900 yards if he balls out Friday and he could reach 1k if he plays in the bowl game, along with 6 TD's at 16 ypc), but he's gotten better each season, and I expect him to take the next step, along with Moore (who is arguably our most underrated WR), Mosley, Livingstone, McCutcheon, and we'll probably finally get to see some more of Lockett, Ffrench, and Terry in actual game time. As for RB help, other than Wisner, hopefully Baxter is much healthier and more dominant between the tackles as his knee should finally be healed. He will never be what his ceiling could have been, but that doesn't mean he can't be a healthy co-starter. Hopefully one of Cooper, Simon, and/or Clark steps up along with a (hopefully) elite portal RB (they're not like WR's out there, but there are plenty to be had). Our OL hopefully gels and we never have to see Stroh again. Goosby (LT) [maybe Neto/Cojoe here] (LG) Robertson (C) [Chatman maybe here] (RG) and Baker (RT). These are just guesses for G, but I can't think of anyone else who would be old enough or good enough to overtake them. The LG battle will be one to watch for. If Neto can't take the job at that point, he's a lost cause. TE we'll still have Endries, Washington, Winston, and Townsend; Shannon as a blocker, who surprisingly wasn't as bad as I thought. He's not really good or anything, but maybe average to a smidge above. He's not total dog shit, tho.
  4. Shane Gillis will not stand to hear you talk about his twin like that!
  5. Lol. Miami is not talented enough to beat anybody, Booger.
  6. I'm usually a great party guy, I'm just horrible sober. Too bad my job frowns on drinking at work.
  7. I do, but damn. It's annoying getting all this talent and we should be shutting people out, not going to fucking OT against the dregs or letting them toss up 37. A backup at Arky out up over 200 passing yards and 2 TDs. A dude who had a total of 18 total passes before this game.
  8. Well their defense is worse than ours. We just let a backup put up over 200 passing yards.
  9. Our defense is utter dog shit. PK should be sending Joseph and Gideon gift baskets for making him look competent
  10. All those top 5 classes and we've been to OT against Kentucky and Miss St, lost to UF who fired their coach, and allowed a shitty Arky team to layup 37 on this defense.
  11. Awesome penalty, Phillips.
  12. Our tackling is so bad. We tackle about as well as America is tackling the opioid epidemic.
  13. Umeozulu failed twice lol. He's a freshman, but still. That isn't a learning moment, that's full on fail.
  14. Lulz. Moore looking G5 against Arky.
