Define ‘better.’ I haven’t looked at statistics so I really don’t know. But when I consider how well NC State played against Wake Forest, well,....(rolls eyes).

Mac is cut out of the same mold as AJ McCarron. And he actually has 3 big rings. Nothing fancy, just a winner. I like your take on it, David. Regarding the teams, Della, I used to think Ohio State had the easy road to the top of the rankings because all they had to do was win that one game; Michigan. Now it’s the same thing for Clemson; win that one game, the one where someone almost surprises them. To their credit they have sprinkled in South Carolina and Texas A&M from the SEC, but let’s be honest, those are second-tier teams.

I had the thought that he was imagining sitting on the shore looking out over the water, thinking of the journey he has been on. From Hawaii to Tuscaloosa to Miami. It’s been a long journey and now this new chapter has ‘officially’ started. Blessings to you young man. You are deserving of what you have because of your hard work and you represent your family well. Go Dolphins!

Said the guy whose team has an L for a 52-24 beating.

Pre-season I picked Florida to win it all in the SEC East. But, the Georgia D is for real. Yes, Florida has a good QB and receivers but that D-line for UGA will be after Trask.

Yeah, but the Birmingham Bowl is guaranteed to have awful weather. This year it was a 2-1/2 hour rain delay for Cincinnati vs Boston College. Maybe, MAYBE 1,000 fans in the stands. It was in the contract that Birmingham signed with the NCAA that Birmingham must accept rain or snow from God. LoL

‘Saban is playing chess while Kirby Smart (and most other coaches) are playing checkers‘ —- Great line! The most impressive team this year is obviously Arkansas. For all the media types that had them in the L column before the season started, we accept your apology.

I lost a very good friend of 50 years today. I have nothing but sadness in my heart but at the same time that picture is calming and peaceful. Blessings to Tua and may he have a fabulous career in the NFL. Life is short. Enjoy your place in life, Tua. Us Bama fans will remember the joy you brought us and the hard work and sacrifices you made for the Capstone.

Sad, really, finding comfort in comparing yourself to bottom feeders.

Florida allowed 100 points, which is the most it allowed in a 3-game stretch since 1917. ——— Nova, that’s taken straight from the article. “Maybe” you’re reading into it like a political apologist having to cover for Biden or Trump when they say something we all know is wrong.

AUTville, you and others are correct. I re-read the rule. Thanks for correcting me. Now, about one of those really sweet comfortable looking luxury boxes they have at BD stadium.” The Saban’s have their own luxury box. It’s where you’ll see Miss Terry every home game. And, yes, quarantining does not mean you can’t be with your family. But burner phone? Coach Sark would have to have a discreet hearing aid to get that past the referees. Wait! They couldn’t even see a KY TD or Bo spiking the ball backwards!

Good point. The AU players knew the call was for a spike so they naturally would have let up. Another issue not factored into the referees thinking.

I’m with you on that KY TD. Everyone but Stevie Wonder saw the ball cross the goal line. What? What’s that? Stevie on line 2? Thanks.

No, but a referee who is within 5 yards of the actual hold could be expected to see it and flag it.Your turn.

Yeah, like ‘We would have won the Natty But Tua head faked our DB on that 2nd and 26.’ And we would have won the SECCG but Smart called a fake punt on 4th and 11.’ Or, blah, blah, blah. It’s game week. Let the bragging be in full force! Seriously, that Georgia D has this Bama fan worried. Najee and B Rob HAVE to be able to run or we’re DOA.

Timmy, you may be on to something; UGA 3 games into installing a new offense. Coach Chad could put in 4-5 new plays and catch Bama flat-footed. Wait. His playbook has been seen at Arky and Clemson. Nevermind. Bama by 6.

Bama Time cites the rule; “Rule 1-4-11-b is very specific and allows only voice communications between the press box and the team area. Sooo, if Saban is in a luxury box the press box rule is not a factor. He is NOT in the press box. AND he would only be having voice communications, not direct contact (within the holy grail of 6ft). I’m not a lawyer but I did drive past a Holiday Inn last night.

No offense, but ‘died from this disease,’ is being a bit loose with the numbers. If one looks at COVID-19 as a primary diagnosis you must then look at co-morbidities. There are many examples of COVID being used as a primary diagnosis when, in fact, the co-morbidities played a much larger role in the patients’ demise. I have taken care of several COVID patients and all, not some, all had a significant underlying disease, such as COPD, renal failure, or some other diagnosis.

But a Georgia win wouldn’t be any less meaningful, because it would finally present objective evidence the Dawgs have reached the same echelon as their rival from the West. ——- Tap the brakes, Phil. The SAME echelon as Saban, who has 5 Nattys at Bama while Kirby has 1 appearance at Georgia? (Uh-mm. Clears throat). To be sure, it would show Kirby is doing a lot of good things at UGA and is a fine coach, but, Phil. Put down the Kool-Aid.

I’m a Bama fan from way back but because my grandson is an Auburn fan I want them to win. The one thing I read over and over is the lack of an OL. Folks! Gus has been there EIGHT years! He’s supposed to recruit and should be reloading, not dealing with an inexperienced OL! It’s not Bo. Its not the OC. It’s not the competition. It’s not the OL. It’s Gus!

Hogs can take comfort we are 3-0 in the eyes of Vegas. ——— Sinatra, that’s what the Hog fan wrote. Not ‘we’re undefeated’ or we’re 3 and 0. He specifically referred to the betting line. He was correct. Reading comprehension is a wonderful thing.

With Shrader and Kylin Hill in the backfield a defense can’t sell out and defend the pass only. Even as a wildcat that would give a defense a totally different look. Leach may be trying to fit a square peg in a round hole here and not realize he has a real Rook card to play against his opponents. We all know Hill is an all-SEC back and Shrader is tough as nails and can take a hit.

Bingo! If defenses are going to give the run, do as we said at Bama when we had Derrick Henry ‘Run da BALL!’

LSUSMC, first thank you for your service. The Few. The Proud. The Marines. I do not want to discount the importance of this meeting. No one, Smart included, has beaten Saban. That MEANS something. Plus, a win gives a HUGE emotional lift to the winner going forward. And emotion plays big in college football.

We may need to give Monty an unlimited cash card and send him to a casino to distract him from this game. That would be ONE way to help Bama! The Coach Bryant quote, “I ain’t nothing but a winner,” applies to Rice! RTR!!!

Boys and girls, it’s time to step back and look at the big picture as A. Whitney Brown used to say on the Weekend Update on SNL. Georgia D vs Bama O. Debate it all you wish but remember, as Coach Bryant used to say there’s 3 phases of the game. Special teams may well be the unknown factor in this game. Fuzzyvol01 points this out and y’all know this old fart always looks at the 3rd factor, not just the obvious O and D. Both teams will buckle up their chin straps cause its gonna be 60 full minutes! RTR!

The Georgia D is for real. The Bama O is for real. Can SB IV get Georgia on the board for more than 3-4 scores? Pickens will likely score 1 or 2, but will the RB’s have strong games? That could well be the key. No one, other than the self-anointed King Negan sees a Georgia blowout.

The bottom line is, Arkansas got screwed by a referee who wrongly blew his whistle. But, the good news for Arkansas is, going forward they have Felipe Franks and Auburn has to deal with their high school QB who only knows one thing; how to tuck and run if his first option isn’t open.
