Ranking Spencer Rattler 6th is ludicrous. He may be the second best QB in the conference playing behind one of the worst offensive lines I've ever seen. He certainly belongs ahead of Dart and Cook, probably Milroe and maybe Beck as well.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but Missouri's last conference title was in 1969, and 10 of their 12 predate the cold war. Florida has all sorts of advantages Missouri doesn't, and it's absurd to act like they're capable of the same things. Should Florida fans be patient? Not really, but they'll have to ride out Napier for at least another year. Nothing about his tenure thus far indicates it's going to get any better than a tier 2 SEC program, though. And even that isn't a given.

I don't get the YPP thing. They averaged 5.1 for the game. After their first three possessions, when they averaged 6.6, they averaged next to nothing on the next five meaningful drives before it was 45-14.

When I see people say that Missouri should be upset about the officiating, I think they must have been watching a different game. The crew was terrible in general, but their incompetence favored Missouri a bit more than Georgia overall, to the extent that I think it was 3 to 7 points closer than it could have been. Missouri played a good game and held their own on both lines of scrimmage. I think that's partially because Georgia didn't play their best on either line, but they still deserve credit. I could also be overestimating how good Georgia's lines of scrimmage are. I guess we'll find out the next couple of weeks.

The Georgia defense isn't as good as last year, and it's certainly not as good as 2021. I don't think it necessarily needs to be, though. They're still very good on that side, and the offense is about on par with last year's very good offense. They don't beat themselves, and I don't think anyone in the SEC can beat them if they play well. I'm not sure anyone else in the country can, either. Oregon isn't good enough all around. Ohio State's QB isn't good enough. I'll buy that Michigan can when I see it. FSU probably poses the biggest threat, since they could turn the game into a shootout with Travis and those receivers. Their defense has some holes, though.

Seeing as they'll probably finish 8-4, this may be a smidge premature.

He most certainly is not a good writer. He is wrong a lot, though.

I don't really understand these rankings. Milroe was awful for a lot of the game against Texas, and Milton has been underwhelming in two games against overmatched competition, yet they barely move. Meanwhile, Beck has had two solid outings and dropped a spot. Hell, even Graham Mertz's ranking makes no sense. He's been okay through two games, yet he's Behind Thorne and Leary, who have been awful against bad teams?

In hindsight, it's amazing that Napoleon was foolish enough to invade Russia. In hindsight, these piles of Beanie Babies were a bad investment. In hindsight, giving Gus Malzahn a 7 year $49 million extension was a mistake...Okay, I think most people knew that one at the time.
