re: Three wins by home teams send UGA to Atlanta

[quote]Winning the SEC Championship in a stacked year like this would be a feat, and yes, it IS ONE of our team's goals.[/quote]
To reiterate, I didn't say it wasn't one of our goals, I said it wasn't our ultimate goal. If playing in the SECCG reduces our overall odds of winning a national champ...

If beating Alabama is your big goal, that's fine. It's not UGA or Kirby Smart's ultimate goal. ...

[quote]Missing the SECCG would be all fun and games until we ended up having to play on the road against Ole Miss again in the first round. Or at Ohio State.[/quote]
Those things are possible but winning the SECCG would be a coin flip. That leads to a much greater chance of the worst case scenar...

The way I see it, there are 3 outcomes.
1)Play in the SECCG, win the game, get a bye in the first round, play 3 post-season games, the same number as everybody else who missed their conference championship games, and play a tougher, more physical opponent in the SECCG than we would have in the 1s...

Maybe that was the plan. The way they used King is still a bit odd to me. They repeatedly called what looked like designed runs, several times straight into the teeth of the defense. If I'm a junior quarterback with an injured throwing shoulder, not sure I'd want to play that role. And I'm not s...

[quote]Too many times he played on 1st down last night, and we all knew it would be for no gain. Might as well just take a knee on those plays. I hate it for him, because he's been a warrior. But he can't do it right now, and towards the end of the game the coaches finally figured it out.[/quote]

[quote]Helps us zero for them to lose.[/quote]
I don't care if they win or lose. Beating UGA is always Tech's #1 priority and the outcome of this game won't change that. If Georgia gets some players healthy, it'll very likely to be a win. If we're shorthanded at multiple positions, it could be...
re: Did I hear right?...Underwood to Michigan and not LSU?*
Posted by wdhalgren on 11/21/24 at 9:14 pm
Michigan is trying the Tennessee strategy. Hire a questionable new coach and then massively overpay a top ranked high school quarterback to try and jump start recruits' perception of their program. It's a bad idea born out of desperation....

True. And Brent Key is smart enough to know that if he beats Georgia one time, he has job security at GT for another half dozen years. Everything else is irrelevant....

NC St is one of the worst teams in FBS. They were losing to Western Carolina after 3 quarters. Looked uncoached against Tennessee. Clemson was leading 52-7 midway through the 3rd quarter before inserting all backups. Tied with Louisiana Tech until 12 minutes left in the game. Beat Northern Il...

[quote]Do we feel that if they get beat by OSU they deserve a home playoff game more than UGA? [/quote]
Saying that I can't find it in me to criticize their ranking is not the same as saying I agree with their ranking. I think that particular case will work itself out in the next few weeks, and ...

I can't find it in me to criticize Indiana's ranking. I know there are some long-suffering fans in places like Evansville who think they've died and gone to heaven. ...

I don't care that Texas drew an easy SEC schedule this year, and it wasn't your fault that Michigan sucks. But I would like to know how you (and everyone else) got the same SEC schedule again in 2025. One year of unbalanced schedules, it happens. Twice in a row, that's intentional....

Having to play at Penn State is the part that's a joke. I don't care if they only have one loss; their best victories are Illinois an...

re: That second half was one of the most satisfying home game arse whoopings in a long time
Posted by wdhalgren on 11/18/24 at 9:13 pm
I assumed that Bobo and company would notice that Tennessee's secondary is a liability, despite their season stats that seemed to indicate otherwise. In particular, they have some small DB's who would not be playing for Kirby because of their lack of size/strength/tackling ability. You may have se...
