  1. The announcers said the call likely got corrected due to the time it was taking to get the bottles off the field giving the booth an opportunity to review. I'm not condoning the behavior in any way, but it did have an impact on the outcome it would seem. You reprimand and possibly frame the refs for making such an egregiously bad call that incited a fan section to throw bottles. Again, not condoning the behavior, it was an embarrassment on the biggest stage (almost as bad as our offense), but the refs had their hand in it.
  2. No surprises there. UGA has been hit pretty hard, but won't accept any excuses after this game, as we have been as well.
  3. Whew! I started three different 'Nah-ah' responses as I read your post, then got to the end and thought, 'We're the same, you and me!' Gerry is spot on. If both teams play their best football (and I genuinely hope they do), Texas wins by double digits. With Georgia's extra-curricular activities, injuries, etc., I truly believe our ceiling is considerably higher than theirs. Having trolled a few UGA sites this week, their fan base feels the same in many cases. Their team won't have given up, but their fans are seemingly conceding the game. Crazy times!
  4. Texas 42 - UGA 17 QE has a career day and a Heisman moment or two that ultimately get him to New York, but not the trophy. The defense solidifies their #1 rank, but give up a TD late in junk time making the score look a little closer than it was. Smart continues his effusive praise of Sark in the post-game presser trying to save a little dignity after his team gets Kirb-Stomped.
  5. Very happy for this young man! Hope they let him eat!
  6. Sad for DW and the D will miss him. Heal up and come back stronger next year.
  7. BYU is playing good football... for BYU. Combine that with they don't have a ranked team on their remaining schedule and they could actually go undefeated in the regular season. They're my B12 CG against Iowa Steak.
  8. Just a quick note on a specific play: At 11:13 in the 2nd qtr, Hawkins rolls right after being flushed out by Burke. Burke doesn't give up on the play, attempting to chase Hawkins down after he sheds the block. He realizes he isn't going to be able to wrap him up, so he dives and throws his arm into the backside of Hawkins so hard you can hear the slap. To Hawkins' credit he didn't go down, but I guarantee you he felt it and woke up this morning with a bruise the size of Big Tex! Seemingly everyone on this team is bought in and playing hard through the whistle.
  9. I feel like we're going to get to the end of the season undefeated and people will be saying we aren't that good because Michigan wasn't the same team (defending Ntl Champs), 0u is in a down year, Georgia wasn't 'Georgia', atm just sucks, etc. I don't care what league you're in, our defense is playing lights out. Every team will have pieces missing (we're down 4 RBs..) this time of year. It's not our job to keep them healthy. If we come in healthier than the other team, it's another mark of excellence for our program. Our S&C staff and our depth of roster is part of what makes this a championship-caliber team.
  10. You're not wrong, but we can only play what's in front of us, and we have dominated what we've played against. If we beat Gorgia next week, that should quell the talk about not having played anyone yet.
  11. Oregon seems to have made this a 'defense optional' game.
  12. The Saban Mystique has left Bama. Respect the program, but they are not the same. Feel like they may go through their own Post-Mack era if they don't get on track soon.
  13. In this game, and based on how bad OUs offense has been this year, I'm deferring. I've got confidence in our defense to get us the ball right back after kickoff and then we get it to start the second half. Other games this year, give me the ball first, but in this one, I don't see it as a risk to give it them just to give it back to us.
  14. Vandy man crying his eyes out. Bless him. I'd pretend I'm tougher than that, but I may have shed a little tear when we beat Bama on their home field by double-digits.
  15. That's all she wrote, folks!!!! Holy Vanderbilt, Batman!!!
  16. Not so hot take: I'll take our run defense over Bama's.
  17. Sometimes they're just better than the other guy. A lot of teams 'accounted' for Bijan and X-Man. How'd that work out?
  18. Turns out the talent and coaching are pretty good at Bama. Who knew...
  19. Don't go into a shell now, Vandy! Stay aggressive.
  20. It feels like Vandy's going to get their heart broken, but the Vandy QB reminds me so much of Sam. I think he's going to close it out, but orifices are puckered.
  21. Lol! Who had Vandy dropping 40 on Bama on their bingo card this weekend?! College Football is the greatest game ever played.
  22. Interesting topic. One thing to consider is that many of our top-rated would-be seniors are now in the NFL.
  23. Ah well, I messed up. Regardless, the number is the same.
  24. You're 100% correct, my bad. I was thinking about the one Cook had taken away due to holding. I'm trying to figure out how to edit the OP, but in the meantime, thank you.
