Feldman: Those who never doubted Cameron Skattebo share validation: ‘No one understood what we were looking at’

 

Feldman?  From across the hall?

I want to shut that guy down, but I don't know how anyone can't admire the story.

News will break before next Wednesday that he’s been running a scheme to steal from old people. Be patient.

Feels very similar to the hype of Ollie Gordon ahead of the big 12 title game last year. Ollie was actually pretty fast though.
Unless we’re getting beat up front, this guy doesn’t worry me at all. They also don’t have much of a passing attack to pair with him without Tyson. 
We’ll see.

Hudson Grille and Stats are more or less "around the corner" from the stadium (closer to Philips Arena). They're typical sports bars.  You might want to give Wild Leap a try:https://wildleap.com/locations/wild-leap-atlanta/  Good beer, but I'm not sure about the game watch vibe, number of TVs, etc. 

Otherwise, GTFO of downtown, which will be even deader than usual on a Wednesday afternoon, and try Midtown or Virginia Highland (no "s" on the end).

Stays is a legit sports bar decent for game watching. We watched the big 12 title game there before ours.

Seemed like Ollie needed that initial hole to burst through. Problem for OSU was that we had two absolute fucking monsters at DT and a ton of lateral speed from the LBs to support them.

I believe the Texas State Bobcats held Skat to around 50 rushing yards and less than 100 all purpose yards. I don’t see where so many people are getting the idea that he is a problem the Texas defense cannot solve. Unless the Sun Devils catch fire and the wheels fall completely off for Texas in that game, the Horns are rolling.

His contact balance is his best trait as a runner. He’s also pretty versatile. 
 

Tahj Brooks had some success against us last year with his exceptional contact balance, but he was more explosive and elusive than this guy.

Wasn’t fast enough to outrun VD.

I feel like the average fan doesn't know Tyson is injured. It's such a huge injury. 

All 3 of Clemson's WRs and their TE are better than anything ASU has at the skill positions without Tyson. I see no reason why we wouldn't sell out on Skattebo and have 2 or 3 guys spying him the entire game.

Shatteredbrew kills men by the hundreds. He’ll consume the Longhorns with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his arse. 

All we can do is pray to a little 60lb baby Bevo that Schraderbräu and AZ State come out flat.

Otherwise, he will feast on our very souls.

Danny Kanell picked us against Arizona State. The guy is a walking/talking jinx.

Other humorous picks, Andy Staples picked Boise State outright against PSU. I’m here for it. The PSU president begging Paterno diehards  to stop threatening James Franklin would be a great presser.

The whole SkatBro hype reminds me of Tebus.

A serviceable white dude "with lots of heart" type shit.

I hope Taafe shows him what that really is. 

I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lot of McDonald in this game

I don't think a game over 3 months ago is very relevant considering his performances against better opponents much more recently.

Kind of off-topic, but I will be interested to see how the Big 12 does this year in these bowl games.

I know bowl games are not always indicative of conference strength but from watching WV and K-State the Big 12 looks bad.

I could almost wear that white one. I don't think they thought that through. It's orange and white with our logo, just pointed in a different direction.

But seems as if even the perspicacious faithful were ... perplexed.

No surprise. I was there for Georgia so am skipping this one.

I cant make these midweek games lol. Most people have jobs and cant just go to national championship games on Mondays and QF games on a Wednesday.

My sister (IM doc) graduated from UTMB, undergrad at Trinity University. I'm pretty sure she doesn't even understand the concept of the Big 12.

In the Stormtrooper Whites.  Oh, yes.

I hope Taafe never gets the opportunity because his ass is getting planted by Broughton, Sorrell, Norton, Burke, Simmons, Hill, Moore, et al 

Taffe will get a pick once we stuff Sk8rBoi a few times and they have to start throwing.
