The conference being granted a automatic bid to the playoffs isn’t very appealing to me. I’d rather be in the PAC12 and if we weren’t ranked high enough not get in. Over the years there were very few times that ended up hurting us and that was a 4 team playoff. With 12 teams the need for an automatic bid is nil. It’s just for seeding purposes. I…[Read more]

The good ole emotional hedge.

Doesn’t work for psychopaths

4 B1G 4 SEC 1 BIG12 1 ACC ND and G5. Thanks but I’m fucking done with college football if that’s where we live.

I’ll live with approximately
3 SEC
3 B1G
2 BIG 12
2 ACC 1 G5 and 1 Whatever year in and year out but fuck no to the rest.

I’ve probably watched 150 less hours of CFB this year because 1) utah sucks and 2) big12 games are both not…[Read more]

umm prove that we have statistically more injuries across the team and that you’re not just noticing it more because you pay attention to Utah and not the 130 other programs.

I agree. Barnes was able to beat get something out of the offense. JJ was chronically injured last year so it’s not like our RB room was any better and we had far less talent at the other skill positions. He played much tougher games to this point in the season. This season is purely abysmal from a SOS standpoint which makes the losses even more absurd.

It’s not MB fault that we don’t have other backs on the roster that can compliment him / carry some of the load. You can’t blame an airplane for not being a truck it just doesn’t work that way. He has done exceptionally well this year given that defenses are stacked against him, and he’s being asked to run a lot of times in a style that isn’t…[Read more]

I don’t see the physical tools in Wilson that I saw in a Jayden Daniels or Cam Ward. Both of them had a lot more raw physical gifts in terms of arm strength/talent and mobility. In Wilson I see a kid who has grown up being spoon fed the QB position and I’m not convinced his ceiling is all that high.

To the extent that Whittingham stays on as an assistant can/will help with recruiting it’s worth keeping him around the program. Much like having a Dennis Erickson around helped bring in us players from Miami/Florida that I’m pretty damn sure weren’t coming otherwise. And then once he is no longer the face of the program on the sidelines in press…[Read more]

It would be nice to know more about how the protections are called and shifted. I think the players are solid and since we generally have had good run game you can’t really say the OLine is all bad.

But against defenses shifting and blitzing that seems to be a shit show in terms of assignment although I agree with those who are putting a big…[Read more]

I don’t agree at all with the take on the offensive side. Outside of Kuithe who I do think has lost a step I don’t think we’re lacking at all. Singer & Parks are solid. Singer in fact to me is one of those “always open” guys and we just don’t throw him the ball nearly enough.

and then they stop running Bernard because his well publicized pitch count. Funny how we publicize that more than injuries.

we are very not that far off what did we start 12/13?

Florida St is a cautionary tale of what happens when people give up.

they have had the luckiest streaks. they should honestly have 2 if not 3 losses.

I’m apathetic. More interested in hoping Texas smashes Georgia. After coming into the year with such high expectations and hopes there’s nothing left.

we’re already eliminated. all we can do is ruin it for tspp and iowa st.

Ok all the people saying Cam would be able do this and that and how great he could be for some other team while ushering him out there door.. why is it you don’t think he’d be able to do that for us.. again?

My current cope is that we’ve only lost to former Pac12 schools so far.

The success of a Scalley transition in my mind depends a lot on whether the program is in the toilet or winning. Right now it would knee cap the hell out of him. If it was announced before the Penn St Rose bowl that it was Whitt’s last game it probably would have work ok. Right now… not so much.

the offense is the play calling. especially with a true freshman who either can’t or won’t change out of a play. the defenses we play are going to not get fooled for an entire game just based on initial formation and a little movement.
