Interesting ... I hadn't seen this before, so thanks for sharing.

Hopefully this is an indication that he knows how to make good use of the extra preparation time.

This doesn't even count post season games with longer prep time

Beat Texas 37-31 in the CFP Semi final in 2023
Beat Texas 27-20 in the Alamo Bowl in 2022
Beat UTEP 31-24 in the New Mexico Bowl in 2021

Doesn’t matter how long the chef has, he can’t make chicken salad out of chicken shite and I am referring to our QB situation.

He has a good record, but he also hasn't played in Tiger Stadium at night. Will be a big challenge.

I'm going to lose my mind if we start getting a bunch of pre-snap penalties

I would love to see us have no penalties on our first drive and at least get a field goal. Gotta set the tone.

Well he did it this very year off a bye week with this very chicken shite quarterback versus UGA.

I know his scheme loves the motions and formation resets but I hope he learned a lesson in Knoxville and pares that down a bit. I know it is a big part of what he's doing but the simple fact of big-time college football is you run an abridged offense on the road. You can't run the things you run at home in the biggest SEC stadiums.

I think a lot of Saban's success on the road was due to him understanding this better than most being a defensive guy and seeing the advantages you have in your own stadium. Our teams were always a bit more vanilla on the road. Not conservative, just less complexity.

I’m going to lose my mind if every big offensive or defensive play is nixed by a damn yellow flag

What have you seen from this team thus far that gives hope things are gonna change in arguably the loudest, rowdiest stadium in the SEC?

Road games frighten me, but if there’s a Boogeyman that haunts Tiger stadium he’s wearing crimson. History is typically a poor indicator of present in college football, but there is no denying that Tiger stadium is our house, and rent is fricking due

One of the most overrated venues in all of sports. They're loud, to be sure, but it's no different than Kyle Field, Neyland, and Jordan-Hare at night.

It's still mind boggling that people can be so stupid as to act as if Jalen Milroe didn't drop 41 points on UGA this year in a game that propelled him to be the Heisman favorite and potential #1 draft pick.

Would I count on that? No. Does Milroe have a history of playing well in big games? Yes. Does he have a history of shitting the bed? Also yes.

This a million times. Some people on here have just become stupid regarding Milroe. Look, does Milroe have a very low floor and is it possible he comes out super cold against LSU and we struggle to score into the double digits? Absolutely, we've seen that before. But is it also possible that he comes out super hot, extends plays with his legs and is accurate with the long ball, and puts on a clinic while we score 40+ against a subpar LSU D? Absolutely, we've seen that too. His issue isn't that he can't play at a very high level, it's that he hasn't managed to play consistently at a very high level. I get being frustrated with him but let's not act like he's completely incapable of playing the position.
