Pat McAfee accuses ESPN employee of trying to ‘sabotage’ his show
I think it’s fairly obvious why he’s on College Game Day. Just look at Lee Corso, he’s not even on the whole show. It’s no secret that Lee’s days are numbered. ESPN was clearly testing the waters with making McAfee his permanent replacement. With how hot and cold his support is, I’d say that he won’t be the replacement. Especially with his calling out of an executive in the company.
Playing behind a great O-Line will hide the fact that he can’t pick up a blitz. I wish well upon the young man, but he’s not a NFL caliber RB and likely never will be.
@JTF I guess you missed the part where I said great talent with elaborate sign stealing equals a dominant program. All respect to UGA here. They built a monster, no doubt. I’m just saying that the Michigan thing is blown out of proportion because most teams do it too. You don’t think all those analysts just plug numbers into a computer algorithm or spend every waking second watching game film on upcoming opponents. I’m sure the get sent on “scouting” missions. And before any backlash happens, I am also accusing my beloved UF of the same thing, they just don’t have the talent to effectively use it against a team like UGA.
I’m of the mind lots of teams steal signs. UGA, Bama, UT, even UF. Michigan was just the dummy program that got caught. Great talent with an elaborate sign stealing scheme equals a dominant program. Makes you wonder how the UGA defense sniffs out plays with such ease. But hey, everyone knew programs were paying for players before NIL and nobody seemed to care at the NCAA, I doubt they care much about sign stealing either. Michigan will get a little slap on the wrist at worst.
You clearly didn’t watch that Utah game. Florida outgained them and went into the TN game with the number 3 defense. Florida shot themselves in the foot with stupid penalties which killed drives.
UGA can’t move the ball like Bama can and UGA won’t play an offense as good as UT all season. UT 42 - UGA 34
It’s funny, you keep calling people a POG. Statistically speaking there’s a very small chance you ever served in the military. So I ask, do you even know what that means?
There it is. The dumbest thing I’ve seen on the internet all day. Go back to the big 12 loser.
The fact that UK got a whopping 2 penalties for 10 yards in a game where their head coach could hit a milestone on prime time tv is a bit fishy.
That being said, you can’t leave it in the hands of the refs. UK deserved the win.
This win doesn’t make UK a contender. Calm down Tex.
Agreed. I’d say both QB’s aren’t actually 1st round talents. They’re hyped by their strengths. I thought Levis had poor awareness in the pocket.
It’s hard to tell. AR could have been hurt early, but I have also always been of the opinion that we’re a bunch of Monday morning QB’s vs coaches who literally get paid a bunch of money to coach and make decisions. AR has all the tools but I don’t think he’s put it all together yet, if he ever will for that matter. Some guys are just great athletes but dumber than a box of rocks.
Recruiting isn’t a regional thing anymore. Sure Florida has lots of blue chip prospects, but you’re never going to get them all. That’s why you have to be a national power in recruiting. Regional recruiting just won’t cut it anymore.
Can’t you say the same about UGA? The SEC East was a weak division as well. If you’re gonna throw shade at one conference and program then you should be able to throw the same shade at your own.
Now I think UGA is better than Iowa, but they’re hardly the best team in the nation. I think OSU would smoke them. I think Michigan would smoke them. And I think Iowa would actually have an old school football slugfest with them.
That’s a dumb statement and you know it. All it takes at Florida is the right coach and staff. Will Billy Napier be that guy? I don’t know. Maybe , maybe not. Time will tell. But if he gets recruiting going and pushes other programs out of Florida then look out. Deep down you know it’s possible and you know if Napier is the guy then UGA won’t be a lock for the east anymore.
I believe the best way to describe Kirby is Richt 2.0. Mr Do Less With More.
It’s not the X’s and O’s that got Dan, it was his lazy attitude toward recruiting. Now us Gators are ecstatic that Mullen is gone. He’s OC material but definitely not HC material.
They’ll be in. I don’t think they should because their schedule was weak, but they’ll put them in because of the SEC name.
IGA isn’t elite. Everyone thought they had a pretty tough schedule before the season started but it turned out to be a joke. They finally played an elite team and got smacked down. Now they’ll probably play Michigan in the playoff and maybe they win that one, maybe they don’t. But let’s not pretend that their schedule only had to good teams on it (UK and Arkansas). And before anyone says anything against me, yes I believe UF was a sad joke this season and was essentially a cupcake game for UGA.
The thing that gets me with Lincoln Riley is that he has never proven to be a program builder. He’s maintained a top program, but OU was already built up by Stoops. So we will see if USC invested wisely with Lincoln Riley.
Napier built the ULL program from the ashes so his resume in that aspect looks better. The rumor was part of the deal was UF increasing its recruiting budget. If that is true the Billy gets it. He knows what it takes to build a program.
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I think you’re not using logic here. Napier revived a poor program at ULL. He rose then in the recruiting rankings to about the ceiling for that program. No G5 team in Louisiana is going to out recruit LSU or any SEC team recruiting in that state.
The key for Napier for early signing day isn’t so much signing recruits, but convincing them to not sign on ESD. That way he buys time to convince them to go to Gainesville and not another program. I think you may be surprised at how well he can do.
Now I’m not saying Kirby Smart should be afraid of this hire. If he were then he should immediately resign seeing as no coach should fear another program’s HC. I don’t expect a powerhouse program in the first two or three years, but after that if he builds this correctly you could see the script flipped and UGA could very well be playing second fiddle and see UGA, Bama, OSU, etc. boxed out of recruiting in Florida.
Yeah they do their state university system similar to North Carolina. What we know as UNC is actually UNC-Chapel Hill. You have UNC-Pembroke, UNC-Charlotte, etc. You even have Fayetteville State, while not in name, it’s still a part of that system and effectively it is UNC-Fayetteville.
I see what you did there. Pretty funny I might add.
Riley’s agent would have used UF, much like he used LSU, to drive up the price tag for USC. I’m glad they stayed out of it. Brian Kelly did ND dirty. I don’t doubt for a second that once old man Saban retires Brian Kelly will insert himself into the Bama job conversation and leave LSU high and dry. If Bama were to be serious about hiring him of course.
There’s a very good opportunity for chaos to ensue this coming weekend. What if Iowa beats Michigan, Baylor beats OK St. and Cincinnati loses its conference championship game? Should be interesting.
I’d agree there. It really paints him in a bad light when in reality these media personalities don’t even know the guy and how he is.
Perfectly balanced, like all things should be.

Matt Ryan had 19 interceptions in his final season at Boston College. Granted he also had 31 TDs. But that’s still a ridiculous amount of picks to throw. Point being, there’s been worse seasons from better QBs in that regard.
