2017 College Football Thread: Hawaiian QB devastated to find out Jesus was "kinda rooting for Georgia" (2 Viewers)

[AAABatteries]

God dammit - 2 fumbles and a missed kick - all turned in to TDs.

 

[AAABatteries]

Football team from Atlanta blows huge lead 

You go blow something 

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

If this goes multiple OTs Marshall might get up to 50 carries

 

[sho nuff]

Tennessee bails them out with the timeout that late in the play clock?

 

[AAABatteries]

If this goes multiple OTs Marshall might get up to 50 carries

He'll be in a body cast by week 3 at this rate.

 

[ffldrew]

Butch better worry about the FG or OT rather then that call

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Oh boy... this

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Ugh

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Terrible

 

[ffldrew]

Tech needs some work on the FG package

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Center the god dang ball on the run before

 

[Dickie Dunn]

I would have run the option there to the wide side with the kicker as the pitch man. #hindsight

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Harrison Butker ain't walking through that door, coach

 

[AAABatteries]

He barely kicked it over the line.  Horrible.

 

[AAABatteries]

I've still got eligibility - I kicked some in HS - calling CPJ tomorrow.

 

[Jayded]

You've got to feel for Marshall. Bad turnovers and horrible kicking. 

 

[Christo]

You've got to feel for Marshall. Bad turnovers and horrible kicking. 

Game should have been over 15 minutes ago.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Tennessee should punt IMO

 

[ffldrew]

Herbstreit says go for 2?

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Herbstreit says go for 2?

He acts like GT's defense can stop Tennessee.  The only advantage GT has right now is they've run 92 plays.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Herbstreit says go for 2?

If the situation is reversed in this OT, I want Tech to go for 2.

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

If Tech scores a TD Paul Johnson gonna go for 2.  He ain't putting this #### defense back on the field

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Swag copter needs to crash into the Vols sideline, they have no business winning this game.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Does @Abraham even come here any more?

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Does @Abraham even come here any more?

Not since he predicted the Vols were #1, and they really weren't. 

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

this game

 

[ffldrew]

this game

Dynamite game

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Replay please

 

[AAABatteries]

 

[sho nuff]

He didn't get in even had he caught that.

 

[AAABatteries]

Don't like the play call but Marshall had a helluva game.  Kicker and #28 ####ed us.

 

[Jayded]

Butch is such a schmuck. 

 

[Beef Ravioli]

I don't understand running sweeps to the short side of the field?

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Butch Jones is an awful coach.  Glad he's not associated with any of my schools.   

 

[Capella]

Paul Johnson is the guy who goes to holiday dinners and tells every single family member there exactly what he thinks of them. I love him. 

 

[AAABatteries]

I don't understand running sweeps to the short side of the field?

They overloaded the left and then pulled the guard - I hated the call, not sure we ran that play/formation all night.

 

[Christo]

I don't understand running sweeps to the short side of the field?

Especially when the QB waives off an extra blocker and sends him to the wide side.

 

[Christo]

Don't think so.

 

[AAABatteries]

Paul Johnson is the guy who goes to holiday dinners and tells every single family member there exactly what he thinks of them. I love him. 

My only problem with him is he will absolutely throw the kicker and the kid who fumbled under the bus - it's one thing for some idiot (me) to do that on a message board but I don't like it when he does it.  When he's honest and talks #### to other teams and coaches - that I love.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Kevin Sumlin just wished he was Butch Jones.  While drunk of course, but still.

I'm not a Florida State fan, but why is everybody acting like their season is over? They lost a close game to the best team in the country, but played with them most of the way and the Seminoles defense looked just about as good. I know their starting QB is gone for the year, but this is a great team that nobody wants to play. Who else is favored to beat them, besides maybe Clemson? Florida State is just as likely as anybody else to be in the last four, IMO.

They have Louisville and Florida.  And NC State has the talent to beat them.

All of those teams could beat them. And I know Louisville crushed them last year (still can't believe that result), but do you honestly favor Fla St to lose any of those games? I don't. 

 

[timschochet]

Florida looked like crap against Michigan. And Louisville struggled with Purdue. So I don't know that you can call them fearsome opponents at this point.

Without Francois I favor Clemson and Louisville 50/50.  Florida have to see how things are going that game is three months away.  FSU defense is still elite but offense took a huge hit

 

[timschochet]

Upsets of the week: 

Auburn over Clemson

Stanford over USC

You realize teams don't play the same every week?  We don't really know how good or bad anyone is.  A lot is still paper predictions based on talent. Florida has talent. So does Louisville.

Because the difference between a good and bad season at FSU is making the playoffs. Which means style points count. Teams don't usually make a lot of style points when they are breaking in a new QB. Even if they end up winning the ACC, there are several other teams out there who are going to have a better chance to pass the eye test this season.

 

[bigmarc27]

FWIW, after the Francois injury ESPN analytics now place Auburn as a tougher opponent than FSU for Clemson this season. 

 

[Jayded]

Notre Dame opens as a 6.5 point favorite against Georgia. Bet the house on Georgia.

Seriously, Michel and Chubb go for over 300 yards against the run defense. ND won't be able to keep up, and no way in hell, even if they do win, will it be by a TD or more. No way.
