Tell Me About Texas a&m
I don't care what they wear as long as they win. As much as it pains me to say that, Texas has a better shot at making the SECCG if Aggy wins. We need LSU to lose to Aggy and Alabama for us to finish 1 or 2 with a single loss, assuming UGA wins out. We have to beat Aggy either way which give us the head-to-head, so we want them doing half the work to clear LSU out of the way. 1-loss LSU finishes ahead of us and I don't see Tennessee knocking off UGA. Need LSU to lose 2.

Texas vs Georgia - 6:30pm on ABC
I said last week if you're gonna pull Ewers and put Arch in, you have to do it BEFORE the game is out of hand. Down 7-10 points is one thing, but you can't send the kid in when it's "we're getting killed and need you to save us." They're fucking this one up all around. Not a single good decision being made.

No thanks, sport. But I appreciate the offer, I guess.

I agree this played a big part and I'm glad Sarkisian let him play through it. I don't know what you mean by this. If you're suggesting I "play scared" and am projecting that onto Ewers, then I'll just say no, neither is the case. He was playing very timid, like he was afraid of re-aggravating the injury. For starters, he was throwing with mostly arm, seemingly self-limiting body rotation. Everything mid-range was sailing and the one ball he needed to put something on was 5yds under thrown. I don't think it's a reach to think he was worried about the oblique. His body language looked off too. There were plenty of comments on it at the time, so I'm not sure why it's such an incendiary opinion all of a sudden. He woke up toward the end of the half and I think the biggest part of it was the TD run where he took contact and got up feeling fine. I think that unlocked him mentally and he played a lot better after that. I hope we get him at 100% tomorrow. If so, I don't see UGA having a chance in hell unless our defense stays in the locker room or something. If both sides play their B games in the same game, and we don't have special teams miscues, we're unbeatable.

Thank you for the assurance. I doubt we'll ever know, so I'll take your word for it. As for the "defeatist bullshit (I've) posted", which part would that be? "We could use Bond's speed" "I feel pretty good about the defense" "Ewers doesn't throw a good deep ball, but UGA probably wasn't going to give us many chances deep anyway" "I think we're good if we play solid fundamental football" "We don't need heroics; the absence of turnovers/bullshit is probably enough" One of those, or something else? Perhaps my comment that Ewers played like shit for most of the 1st half against OU?

You and a few others seem to be super quick on the trigger to get all spun up and talk shit to people, saying things you'd never say in person. All the "pussies", "retards", "fuckbois", "you fucking dolts", etc. aren't really needed and nobody takes people who act like that very seriously. We're just talking football. I don't recall worrying about how Ewers was going to play. I said he doesn't throw a good deep ball, but UGA probably wasn't going to give us that anyway. Ewers doesn't throw a great deep ball. That's not news. Yep. Probably not getting a lot of chances deep, hence the need for what Bond provides on the perimeter. Point out where I mentioned Beck, much less that I'd take him over Ewers. I'm a big fan of Ewers and he's our QB1, period. Not Arch, not anyone else's QB, just Ewers. Sark was right to leave him in and force him to work through the rusty start against OU, and I'm glad he did. That doesn't change the fact that he played like shit for 1.5 quarters and put Bond in some bad spots on a bad ankle (the under thrown ball where he awkwardly tried to get back to it and the high/behind overthrow that he had to get acrobatic on and wound up leaving the game after). Saying it isn't some kind of sin. Football opinions, all of which would be said in any forum or any context...unlike all the internet tough guy shit.

Ewers played scared in the first half. He wouldn't step into anything and he was obviously worried about contact. It happened and he's not exempt from the truth. High performers don't worry about criticism. They address it, fix it, and move on. I'm guessing you wouldn't understand. You seem like the type who'd wet your pants, act passive-aggressive, and then be summarily dismissed/ignored.

I'm bullish on the team and the game. This is what you'd call a context clue.

#1 defense in the country. Feeling pretty good about that side of the ball. UGA will score some, but I don't see it being a shootout. Definitely could use Bond, but he's listed as Questionable. Thanks, Ewers, for being a vag, playing scared, and throwing your WR1 into an injury. UGA probably wasn't going to let us take the top off anyway and Ewers can't throw a deep ball for shit, but Bond's speed would have been nice on the edges. I think we're good if we just play fundamentally sound football. Don't need heroics, just the absence of turnovers and bullshit.
