Matt Luke is still your OC, right? Blaming him for a loss doesn't mean your team gets credit for the W, it's just an explanation for why your team's offense is inconsistent.

Clemson's win was impressive, but their best three regular season opponents lost handily in bowl games. Meanwhile, a majority of Alabama's regular season opponents just won their bowls. The strength of schedule update should probably jump Bama over Clemson. Vegas agrees. But this will get settled in a week, so we can agree to disagree on the academic point. Roll Tide.

How'd the defense get him extra yards?

I just love the recruiting advantage Bama is likely to get from all these arguments (by LSU fans no less) that if only Fournette had picked the Tide, he'd have broken every NCAA record and ascended to Heaven on a winged horse. I suspect that it may not be true, but I sure hope that recruits buy it.

See, I'm not sure why this is considered bad for Georgia. Their new coach is going to be getting tons of free national attention, and during the few weeks when he's not spending all his time recruiting for Georgia, he might be getting an extra ring to show of to those recruits.

I hate LSU more than is reasonable, and was (I guess) hoping for UF to pull out that game. But FLorida pretty clearly failed to recover that fumble in bounds.

It's great news for Bama if Arky's O-line is that good, because then we're likely to hold a bunch of remaining opponents to negative rush yards.

And whose fault is that?

There's a difference between arguing for calls and going out and pushing an unpaid student athlete on another team. No coaches (other than yours) do this. But the SEC has said this is fine now, so calm down. I just hope he pulls this on a less disciplined player.

"Usually your opposition only likes you when they're regularly beatin' you." It's cute how you think that with a 9-game losing streak against Alabama, we dislike you 'cuz yer just so good.

Coaches aren't allowed to go push opposing teams' players, and players are absolutely not obligated to just allow that coach to keep pushing them. Robinson was a gentle giant, and I'd like to see Bielema try this on a less disciplined player.

Compared to Bielema, he was.

You're gonna talk about Bama getting calls after that RPO y'all scored on this year? Does losing so often make opposing fanbases stupid or is it the other way around?

"... they'll flag that every time..." I don't know what the refs would do every time this happens, because having watched an awful lot of college football, I have never before seen a coach run onto the field to push an opposing team's player who was already backing up. If you can find some video of what this looks like "every time", I'd be very interested to see it.

I can't wait until he tries this new strategy on a team whose players are contending with his for the bottom of the division (coincidentally, they play Auburn in two weeks), and he gets clocked. That team's fan-base is gonna be livid over the ejection.

I hope y'all keep riding your delusion that this guy's more than a loudmouth moron and the 3-16 record right into the ground. This division is hard enough without Arkansas being decent again.

There's audio, and you can hear a lot of different voices. So if Robinson said something, he said it pretty quietly.

"Playing well and losing". I mean, last year, sure, you had a couple. The defense is still doing alright. But the offense is not playing well enough for y'all to win in league play consistently.

He walked onto the field of play to push an opposing player, and when that player, while moving backward, removed the fat-ass's arm from his chest, the big dumb jackass fell backward. Most generous interpretation possible: It's kind of a miracle he manages to stand upright at all, and he fell backward from the unfamiliarity of doing anything more athletic than standing motionless with a clipboard. Reasonable interpretation: He's a flopper; get over it.

Apparently he should have played dirtier. 9 in a row for Alabama over the Hogs, and this is all the effort he could put into it? He's gonna have to pull out all the tricks to even get past Auburn this year. But seriously, good luck on that.

In fairness, about once a year it's hard to tell Georgia and San Jose St. apart.

Yes, we had a down weekend (i.e., 2 of our teams lost out of conference, one of them to a likely Big 12 champion). The previous weekend, the Big 10 went 6-6 out of conference, and the marquee program was trailing at half time before they broke VT's QB. There are only two teams in the Big 10 with quarterbacks at all. So, um, let's keep things in perspective maybe.

Are they though?
