I still think we can beat Purdue next week and go 2-2 into conference play though, which is better than a lot of people though we'd do. If VT can put up 50 points on Purdue, I can only imagine what Johnson will do to them. He's gonna destroy the passing record this year at this rate. Yeah I figured we'd emerge 1-3 out of the opening and didn't at all figure we'd win one of the first two. Emerging 2-2 would be phenomenal. Also holy poo poo can we cut down at least a little on the penalties, guys?

Those penalties do remind me very much of FSU at the end of the Bowden years, seemed like we'd get one called on us every other play for the stupidest poo poo imaginable.

I personally think Mac needs 4-5 years to clean up this mess--culture of entitlement followed by a culture of undisciplined, highlight seeking morons. I'm sure people will be calling for his head if we lose to UT. October looks to be a rough month. I'll just keep the bottle close on Saturdays. I think we should see real improvement next year, but we may lose 6 or 7 games this year, honestly. go3 posted:Texas had the same poo poo. Defense turns into a bunch of highlight reel building idiots because hey the offense will just go score again and then finally when we actually do need a stop and they get it the drive continues because some fuckhead laid out a dude after the play It blows my mind. What a cancer that guy is.

As much as I hate to say it, Chad Kelly made some clutch plays last night. I mean, you know, still gently caress him, but holy hell did he display the perfect balance of skill and pure dumb luck last night. edit: Not sure if this made it into the GDT, but this is hilarious.

A&M was inconsistent yesterday. I'm hoping it was due to it being an 11am game (gently caress that noise) and it being super hot. We throw a ton of screen passes and never run any quick slants or anything over the middle of the field. One drive we remembered we're allowed to throw deep and scored in 3 plays, so I'd like to see more of that. The upgraded Kyle Field is really nice and they keep upgrading buildings that were lovely when I left a little over a year ago, so I hate the students there now.

We have a great defense, but their QB went 9-28 with two picks. They're not going to compete with many teams this year.

I am confident in us beating Missouri, Vandy, South Carolina and FAU. That would get us to 7. And then one big win over Tennessee, Ole Miss, LSU, Georgia, or FSU. I don't know which one of those we can beat yet but I think Tennessee is our best shot.

Said this in the old thread but Auburn blows and I can't wait for the anonymous tell-alls that will be forthcoming about how everyone on the inside saw this coming. I do wonder if LSU or A&M should be the frontrunners; that Ole Miss defense still gave up 37 points even with five takeaways. But > Bama is easily the best win so enjoy your moment atop the pile.

There were 4 banners last night from fans: There is funding in the works for every single miami game, possibly gameday next week when Miami has a bye, possibly a dolphins game, and possibly a banner at nebraska's next game being angry at them not getting rid of golden. Also, at least one of those banners was free because we've already spent so much on banners.

What the gently caress kind of tackling form is that? All of the best games yesterday happened while I was out for 3 hours, goddammit. At least I finally got to sit down and watch a Sparty game in full. Final score is closer than the game really was, but the defense occasionally looked pedestrian against the triple option. Glad we don't have to see that again this year. Also Burbridge has really come into his own, finally.

That one was the better run too--flattened him like 2-3yds backwards, then ran through his chest. I'd kill to be a fly on the wall in Muschamp's defensive meetings today--especially with that safety intentionally whiffing the angle to avoid Fournette.

Also, Les Miles is a good person. Kid's name is Cid Ortis & he's from Birmingham. Huge LSU fan; unfortunately riddled with cancer. He's off of chemotherapy now & is simply being given pain medications since the cancer appears that it will likely win. Miles had Ortis & his family at the game yesterday & they were able to watch the game from the coaches box. Ortis said it was one of the best days of his life.

UGA afterthoughts: I'm not saying that all of our QB issues are done, but man our offense looked legit last night on all phases. Lambert has the all time QB completion percentage for FBS at 96%, and set a school record for most passes in a row (20) without an incompletion. The only incomplete pass was one of those where either the receiver was going to get it or not type of deals. Our running game was great but that wasn't really the story of the evening. The tin-foil hat in me thinks that maybe we were being a little vanilla the first two games or maybe it just took a bit longer to get playbook knowledge where it needed to be. On defense we did what we needed to do and really the second TD from Carolina was bad playing by UGA. I'm not super worried about our defense this year, I think we can hang tight with a lot of teams. I also think we lose to someone down the line, and probably will be a team we are "supposed" to beat. Could be Alabama, could be Tennessee. It would be some poo poo to Win out and lose to a reserging Kentucky or a Georgia Southern (Who put 21 on Oregon yesterday!). In other words I am just gonna bask in this win, not hang my season hopes on it, and enjoy the fact that we hung half-a-hundred on Spurrier hopefully sending him into retirement a broken and beaten man. And this too:

Kidd-Liggit posted:Took some time to come up with my thoughts about this UK team without being in the heat of the moment: The defense really deserved to win that game the way they played last night. The play calling and clock management on that last drive was atrocious. The D will keep them in games like last night, and if they can get any kind of offense going they should at least make a bowl. It's Kentucky though, I'm sure they will drop a game they shouldn't. Still disappointed in last night. Really wanted to see that streak broken.

Invicta{HOG}, M.D. posted:I think that the o-line looked much better this week and Collins did a good job. I think that the receivers looked good even though they weren't our starters. I think that Brandon Allen is doing much better but will never be a clutch QB. The defensive scheme was probably the main problem this game and I'm hoping that it will change. The problem is that I fear we just don't have the personnel to play the way we need to win the upcoming games. You guys came out flat as hell against Toledo. Tech's offense may be one of the top 3 or 4 in the country and you stopped us, what, twice? You'll only see two more offenses that dangerous this year in A&M and Ole Miss, and I'm still torn on Ole Miss. Was a fun one.
