2018, unless we all play in a bowl game like Ohio State did last year. Which, you know....

So now I think it's more likely than not that Gus Malzahn keeps his job. Vandy and a cupcake get us to a bowl; Bama is a loss but I would hope to earn one more between Arkansas, @Ole Miss and @Georgia with a nonzero chance of stealing another if we catch somebody on a bad day. That'd be seven or eight wins with a bowl for an eighth or ninth. That should suffice in a year where there will likely be at least two more attractive jobs open, and that number could grow. He won't be any more secure next year -- especially if the new president pushes Jay Jacobs out -- but barring a disaster I don't see a reason to move now.

I don't know why this popped into my head -- does anybody remember a B10 game from two or three years ago, early part of the season, early in the day, I think two relatively hapless teams like Illinois and Minnesota, where they both got into the 50s or 60s of them and we all went crazy in the GDT? Just curious what game I'm half-remembering.

Will GT improve on their record from last year? Maybe if they unfuck themselves and approach GA Southern with respect and Duke and Virginia continue to gently caress themselves.

I just caught the rant of Herbstreit making GBS threads all over Texas this morning and good lord it was glorious. Strong should just throw his stuff in a box, take a poo poo on the desk, and give the finger to everyone in Austin on the way out.

Yeah, I really don't see us dropping all three of those games. VT might be a blowout but I think UNC and UGA will be competitive, at least. My prediction is 6 wins in the regular season and I'd be shocked if we got below 5.

There's nothing to unfuck, the players just aren't good enough and the playcalling turns to poo poo right at the most crucial moments.

I'm going to need to take some time to process that. Offense sucked plain and simple.

Those refs were complete trash and came close to starting a riot. Fsu got away with a bad hold on their TD before ours which got called back. That targeting call was atrocious.

Can't leave it in the hands of the refs and Richt got out coached. Our oline should have to hitchhike home.

Crowd was a lot of fun and the place was rocking though.

Paul Johnson's 4th down calls are always good for a laugh. Pitt bullshitted their way to a tie game(and the win), the odds are really good GT would have won in OT but instead of punting it on 4th at their own 34 he fails to pick up the 1st and Pitt gets a chipshot to win it.

Burning his last two timeouts when it was mathematically impossible to get the ball back, in a hurricane, was a supreme dick move.

Only thing worse would be to send up a GA in a scissor lift during pregame warmups.

I could hear any arrangement for 2-4, I just have bought into Washington since the preseason. I do think Clemson isn't better than the other 4, though.

Realistically, there's your playoff teams, minus whomever loses between Michigan and OSU, barring an upset.

If Washington plays the Big Ten winner, mandatory move to the Rose Bowl, as God intended.

Agreed. There's 2-3 teams who could make things interesting but I'd probably wait another month before having that talk.

Michigan State will overlook the Northwestern Wildcat out of frustration, and it will lead to an upset

Today was a good day. SDSU wins, Houston loses, and our dead NY6 Bowl hopes are back on life support. We'll have to run the table and beat a (hopefully) undefeated and ranked Boise State in the MWCCG, and hope Houston loses to Louisville, but there's still a chance.

Pumphrey is still real good even if he had his worst game of the season and only got 140 yards

The past two years they've had trouble building up steam against the early opponent from FCS but then become dangerous in conference play.
