They gave then-#1 Georgia a pretty spry test in Athens, though it was one of those games where UGA outgained USC by a ton but just didn't finish off drives. 24-10 final.

Yep. They haven’t been as dangerous as they could have been with Deebo but all around pretty solid. Bentley can make some plays and it’s not as though Muschamp can’t coach a defense.

I would think they beat Michigan in a typical ugly Muschamp game.

Michigan getting a better bowl game than MSU is really dumb, but at least it's also a worse opponent and a much less interesting game

It's because Michigan carts around buses full of rich alumni with puffed out chests about the Proud Blue Tradition despite the fact that 1) they ain't poo poo, 2) they ain't been poo poo for a minute and 3) they ain't gon' be poo poo for a minute neither.

The prestige of the bowl game is tied to the quality of opponent you're facing and the quality of your own team. If you're a team that goes bowling almost every year, it can be humiliating to get relegated to the K-Mart Bowl versus the team that came sixth place in the Sun Belt.

The one exception to this is the Bahamas Bowl, where it is awesome to go to even though it's hard for fans to get there and doesn't feature high-profile matchups.

I hope Leach is still coach for Washington State by the time the game is played. I don't think Michigan State has the personnel to win that game otherwise.

We are so young, we will have a million penalties and a few broken plays in the secondary. Offense, who ever knows which Lewerke will show up.

While I wanted to play a P5 team, a bowl that we've never been to against a team we wouldn't normally otherwise play is fine. And it's on a weekend, which is good.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
San Francisco Christmas Week is probably pretty cool but I've only been on this job a month so don't have my normal stash of PTO for things like this.

I really don't like the matchup. Purdue is pretty slow and boring and like if their defense wins out, you have a slow, bad game. If it doesn't, Arizona outscores them by like three touchdowns and it's also not very interesting. There were so many potentially fun matchups out there.

As someone who has never seen Georgia play this year how does their passing game stack up to a dumpster fire of a secondary? Conversely how does the Georgia defense stack up against the run? I'm not really worried about their secondary so much with Mayfield at the helm.

I'll forever be grateful to Danielson for quelling the tOSU-Michigan rematch nonsense in 2006 with actual facts about how horrible Michigan's schedule was and how much more qualified UF was - but yeah, he's an insufferable dick who's impossible to listen to.

I still know people who think he's anti-Bama and it cracks me up.

Also it's hard not to like how Bama just ruins football for some people so much that they won't even watch the loving games, even to root against them.

Run defense is a real strength and I would be willing to say we have a top 5 linebacker corps who are insane at edge to edge running, pass rush is generally solid, but pass defense can be questionable at times.

We can pass when we need to but because we have been able to run on literally everyone (except Auburn round 1) at will, and not to mention that every single one of our running backs would be starters in any team in the country, most of the games we have played have less than 20 passes total. Fromm can extend drives with his arm when called upon, and he has hit some beautiful mid-deep balls when the receivers don't drop them.

Mecole Hardman learning how to catch passes somewhere midseason has been quite advantageous; he was by far the worst dropsies offender.
