Awful throw great catch

 

[Summer Wheat]

How did Mel Tucker bamboozle Michigan State into being one of the highest paid coaches without ever doing anything? Did nothing at Colorado, one good year at MSU that was all portal.

Kenny Walker probably won 3-4 games on his own last year. Mel needs to give Kenny a stipend.

OSU could have hung 70 on them last year and today but both times let up. MSU seems to quit and play without the fire of the previous coach.

Byu by 24

You officially pissed off Michael Mayer

 

[scottybo]

Milroe isn't up to snuff. This should be 28-0, if not more.

 

[Jayded]

ND is allergic to 2nd half defense. It’s so inexcusable

 

[gump]

Bryce hurt = Bama’s hopes done

Cracks me up when you post this

QBs are everything now in college…Milroe can’t win a championship.

 

[General Malaise]

It's so strange to see UCLA with a legitimately good team. Been a long time.

And their fans just.....don't care. What a weird city.

 

[belljr]

Needed a td there

 

[Jayded]

Al Golden has the absolute worst sense of timing with blitzes. He always picks the worst possible time and bites him every time. No idea why he continues to do it.

 

[Jayded]

Needed a td there

Not taking 3 and also not taking the XP earlier looking huge. That’s first year beach coach stuff we had to expect but ugh.

 

[Schmeabs]

Ejection for targeting, by far the worst rule in college football

 

[Jayded]

Escaped that one. ND has got to figure out halftime adjustments on D in particular.

 

[belljr]

My first successful reverse jinx!@$#'!

LA is the worst sports city in the world. Yet the nfl keeps putting teams there where the opposing fans outnumber the weirdos by 3 to 1 at least. And you can always count on someone being assaulted in a parking lot. Why anyone would go to anything in that cesspool is beyond me.

 

[scottybo]

If Bryce can't go next week, the streak against Tennessee will end. Milroe is good, but needs time to fine-tune.

Its the Big Ten effect.

Holy crap what a catch.

We’re going to LA in two months lol. Can’t wait.

 

[Galileo]

Bama survives...terrible play call by A&M in my opinion.

 

[Bluesbomber]

Illinois 5 -1...won without top qb and kicker or a TD lol.. Very solid defense.

 

[FreeBaGeL]

That was worse than the Broncos last play.

 

[dickey moe]

Well dangit.

 

[NutterButter]

what a horrible play call or decision by the qb on that last play

 

[Capella]

You gotta pay Jimbo 15M for the good play calls.

 

[scottybo]

Bama gave King the chance, but he didn't even throw it in the end zone on the deciding play. Tough ****. Georgia should regain #1 now, rightfully. Milroe has the playmaking ability, but needs refinement. This should be a good learning season for him and hopefully Bryce is back for Tennessee.

I believe OSU will jump Alabama as well. I don't think it really matters. Alabama so fortunate to win tonight. Even if Bryce plays I'm not sure we beat Tennessee. WRs have no separation ability. Gibbs is dynamic but you can't hang everything on 2 players. The OL has been a little better.

Not that bad, but pretty dumb

Not sure, it still shows up fine for me.

Bama dropped to third as expected. I believe Tennessee will be favored as they should be next week. I think Bryce will play but who knows how effective he'll be. That UT offense is explosive, and I can't remember a time where Alabama can't force any turnovers.

Bama -7

 

[facook]

Was at a UT/OU party so I missed most of the other fun. I see Big Game Brian is back in full force. Enjoy that LSU.

Weird to say but I’m looking forward to Tennessee/Bama next week.

Side note, as Texas moves to the SEC there’s gotta be some UT vs UT language that has to form around that game, right?

Peel vs. Burnt imo. NTTAWWT

I like Tennessee, and I'm glad to see them relevant again but LSU made them look better than they are IMO. They missed so many tackles in the backfield, dropped balls all day, turnovers and bad special teams. I don't see them beating Bama. They may cover, but I'm not betting on it.

I'm still losing sleep over the Miss State loss to LSU. LSU is talented, but just not a good team this year. We completely **** the bed that night. Leach has us playing pretty good since then. Nice to see a bounce back.

We got Kentucky and then Bama. Not that Bama ever falls into a trap game, but they look beatable this year. This might be a year we can actually hang with them.

I've noticed that - especially on mobile. If I accidentally tap a username instead of the thread title, it's then REALLY easy to hit the ignore button.

I feel pretty good about this week for Bama also...if Young plays. TAMU wasn't as close as it appeared. Odds are UT breaks this streak soon though.

I don't know. Pretty shocked Bama is a TD favorite, I'd be on UT on that one as I think they have a good chance to win even if Young plays.

Yeah streaks are meant to be broken so it will be a matter of time. Still hard to believe that no Tennessee fan has had the opportunity to retweet Rocky Top after a win over Bama.

 

[General Malaise]

Going to the UCLA/Oregon game in two weeks. Should be a good one. Too bad I'm now a Kansas fan.

 

[culdeus]

Rhule to Nebraska or nah?

Lots of people saying Auburn.

Obviously I'm biased...but I can't believe a big name would select to join that situation right now. $31M in dead money even before they fire Harsin, a bare cupboard of talent, in a conference about to get much tougher for them to compete in on and off the field.

Now that I'm off your ignore list, I would say a better fit would be Wisconsin - if he's looking at B1G schools. Wisky has had decent success recently and NU is a dumpster fire.

Wisconsin peeps can chime in, but I'm pretty sure they already have their next coach.

Just guessing, but I think the Chryst firing was accelerated because other schools had been inquiring about Leonhard.

Again, just a guess.

Can he (Leonard) fix the recruiting problems at Wisconsin? That Athletic article about their woeful recruiting department was damning.

sounds like the recruiting department problem was a one-year thing due to budget cuts. they've had well rated classes until 2022.

sucks that the University let it happen and no one stepped up to do something about it (surely Paul Chryst wasn't the only one who noticed and/or had the ability to do something about it).

Badgers have had an incredible 30 year run in football relative to where they'd been and probably belong. Chryst was fine and would be a legendary HS coach in the state, probably, but he's maybe not suited for coaching at this level.
