  1. Btw, the last FG by Tenn was a bit low.
  2. weirdest inside 2 minute drive with almost all running I have seen.
  3. good safe pass. bu not a 1st down.
  4. FG range...Georgia needs to start using TOs.
  5. Both teams with 3 TOs. should be fun to finish.
  6. TD Georgia. I was correct, this is an instant classic and they will go for 2.
  7. Here comes 4th down....
  8. Another big 3rd down coming, but Georgia will go for it on 4th down. too many missed tackles on Tenn.
  9. And again...Kirby is the luckiest damn Head coach ever, at least to my eyeballs.
  10. Okay we are still set for my hypothetical...Georgia scores and 2 point conversion to make it 38 all to go to OT.
  11. and the Tenn. D finally comes through!!!! the QB was getting hit a bunch the previous plays.
  12. Another HUGE 3rd down coming....
  13. great tackle by Tenn, heat sinking missile stuff. HUGE 3rd down now.
  14. Georgia has at least one more TD in them, probably this drive, and it could be 38 to 35, setting up a drive for Tenn. to tie and go to OT.
  15. It was looking bleak for Tenn, but they just hit a bomb for a TD. This is becoming an instant classic....should be 28-27 end of third quarter.
  16. Kirby may just be the best coach in CFB, evidence being they are taking it and running the ball down the throat of Tennessee, scoring on almost all runs and about 8 minutes off the clock to open 2nd half.
  17. wow, yes, he is a dead ringer for Chumlee...and Holly is looking pretty good..hasn't aged much in the last 5 years.
  18. wow, this Georgia QB is really good, evades just about anything.
  19. two more third down calls against TU, both deserved, but Kirby remains the luckiest coach wrt penalties in a long time. ...and here comes another 3rd down.
  20. one more sack, on 3rd down, here and Tenn puts some serious doubt in Georgia's mind. I mean to start the 2nd quarter.
  21. Texas ...42 UTEP 16 289
  22. I live in SA. Randomly tuned into the KENS 5 news the other night and found out UTSA was having a blood drive at Rolling Oaks Mall, and the prize was a t-shirt and 2 tickets to today's game against my alma mater, Texas State- (After two years at SWTSU I dabbled in academics one year at UT). So this was a chance to hear the modern version of the Bobcat Band I was part of for two years, and the first time attending a D-1 game since the Charlie Strong era. My dad was given some tickets to a butt-kicking that we knew was coming, probably Kansas or Kstate, late one year. From an old man's(60) perspective: Getting to the game via Via Transit was painless, and then comes the fun stuff. Standing in line before the gates open, thinking how lucky I am it is only about 88 degrees, compared to the normal 95+, and of course there were some interesting little bits to me, like the young men dressed in BDUs who tried several times to get inside the dome, and I told my wife they had to be color guard and it was going to be interesting to have no color guard because the person in charge kept sending them somewhere else. They didn't open the doors until just before one o'clock for a 2:30 p.m. game, which I found slightly annoying. I was thinking more like 2 hours would be good. If there were really old people there and a normal 95+ temp there could be health issues. By the time we got in after one there were a lot of people standing in line. I don't think UTSA is used to a large crowd at all. But wow, when they opened the doors and the AC hit us while we were still in line. I don't remember anything like all of this in-game productions stuff. Professionally done, obviously, games at every timeout, etc. Nothing too irritating, but there is no way I could put up with that stuff for a season's worth of games. Both bands were totally defeated if they tried to compete with the PA announcers, but I honestly think the in game productions crew may have run out of things to do in the extremely long 2nd half. Good seats for the price, goal line 3rd deck. I had a perfect view of the safety in the first quarter. UTSA long snapper blew it, big time. Bobcat band showed up late, started entering their seats with about 12:00 left in the first quarter. Insert joke about the band being hung over as to the reason they couldn't get there in time. Halftime was a blast from the past for me. Bobcat band stood on sidelines and played while the dancing girls(Strutters) stole the show at half. OMG! So much skill and legs. High kicks and splits from 20 to 20. Both bands were equal at marching to one song, both moderately average, I suppose. Game, bobcat D-coordinator gets something of a special award, because he kept switching out D-lines to keep people fresh. There wasn't a whole of D played on either side. Final score 43-36 Bobcats, and it is one thing to watch it on TV, but this was so much better in one respect. Coaches nowadays just don't like to punt hardly at all. Under a more normal situation, this game would have been over much earlier, but UTSA went for it on 4th and 8 or so around midfield, converted, then the next play was a TD run, followed by a 2 point conversion to tie the game. If this is a typical game, UTSA should strip all scholarships from punters, they're next to useless. Looked to me like the offenses got tired of scoring. I know the bobcat kickoff guy got tired. He hooked a kickoff out-of-bounds pretty late in the game after consistently nailing kicks to mid-end zone before that. Crowd- polite, nobody taking it too seriously, and the women! Completely different than anytime I have been remotely near a crowd anything resembling this, 45,000 plus. The huge difference is so many different shapes, any and everything from skinny to fat, they all show as much skin as they can. Honestly not too many skinny ones. We are talking San Antonio. Charles Barkley was not lying, that is for sure. And the best for last, the AC inside the dome. Fantastic!
  23. as far as I am concerned the group should do Super Bowl halftime. I couldn't stop watching that girl.
  24. Only two serious questions: 1. On fourth and goal at the one, if the QB comes to the line and there are two men on the center, is the QB supposed to check out of the sneak or not? Had he done that and run right, I think he could have gotten into the end zone. Whole different ballgame. 2. Arch looked so uncomfortable in the first half, it kind of reminded me of Vince his 1st year, true freshman year, I think. Is this a case of first game of season jitters or does the coaching staff need to "Let Arch be Arch", just like our QB problems were solved 20-21 years ago by "Let Vince be Vince"? And of course like everybody else I am sick of the opposing team being so perfect that they have 0 yards of penalties through 3 quarters, and like somebody said, "here's the obligatory holding call after the game is done" thing to make the yardage look close. The bright side is we have a kick ass defense and a kick ass punter. Easily best punter since Dickson, and since I consider myself an expert on the best Texas D ever, the 1983 D, I would say this D is right up there. If this Texas D had stopped OhioState on fourth down, it could easily be considered top 3 best D ever, up there with the 1981 and 1983 D, assuming this D continues to play this well throughout the season. Without seeing other teams play, my guess is one loss, maybe two more, and a top 12 rating
