Woke up to a few fellow USC fans crowing about UGA losing.

Reminded them that UGA played for a title last night and USC won bloomin’ onions for the country.

Was Georgia going to house that blocked punt that got called back?

If so, fix was in, refs gave Bama another title, UCF real champs

It was a false start anyway so the play would have been dead. They saw the movement just called the wrong team on it

This is maybe the worst bad call to harp on, because it should have been a false start, which would have just blown the play dead and resulted in a second punt anyway. A true connoisseur would choose the face mask on the 15-yard sack. Step your game up

I'd have to really see the breakdown but my gut sense was that Sony Michel looked like Georgia's best player and didn't get the ball enough, and those Wildcat possessions seemed too conservative.

Definitely right on #1. Love me some Chubb, but there's just more stuff you can do with Michel. Chubb was best this season when he'd be fresh in the third quarter because of UGA's RB depth and then just wear people down, but you don't ever wear Bama down. Also wish Swift got more touches, like some slants.

Well seeing as we can't possibly have every single loving linebacker injured at the same time again, probably better than this year.

The team who wins them sparingly if at all is easily going to be more incensed about the idea of sharing.

Did it get mentioned in the GDT what a cluster it was getting into the stadium last night? 2 hours in 40 degree light rain. Trump shut things down for a bit then some gates stopped working. Worst experience like that I’ve ever had.

You gotta take the Ws where you can. Georgia and Clemson both making the playoff was a nightmare scenario, so to have somehow escaped that ordeal with neither of them winning is a relief. It's not something I'm gonna be talking poo poo about, but I'm pleased with the outcome.

Scionix posted:

by the way tua in the postgame described in detail what his read of the coverage was (it was right) and how he looked off the safety to the other side of the field

yall are hosed :twisted:

Dom Sanders, with his 8 million games started at safety, was in Cover 2 and shouldn't have even been looking at Tua. For fucks sake he had the deep boundary to cover with 1 WR on his side. Had he played it correctly he at least would have been in position to make a play instead of trying to be a hero reading Tua and sneaking over to the other side of the field.

Great game, but talk about a lovely way to lose it all.

Tua and Najee are going to be ridiculous.

Well that's an interesting development. I know for next season, Browning will play it out. But after that, I have no idea. We just signed to recruits for quarterback, I wonder if Petersen is planning to play them in different positions.

Well he only has 2 years left of eligibility since Kirby burned his opportunity for a medical redshirt this year. So I would assume it would be a QB battle this year with Browning, next year Eason would be the starter and then leave, opening it up for your QB recruits of this year to take over.

I think that, in these troubling times of nuclear proliferation, terrorism, and economic hardship, that one thing, an Alabama title, provides us with a little sense of stability and normality in this crazy hectic world. Thank you Nick Saben.

The corner also absolutely needs to slow the WR down and not get roasted in that coverage. Two guys hosed up big time there, but the safety hosed up worse for sure.

He won't be able to play next year because of the transfer rules, but would be eligible in 2019 and have 2 seasons of eligibility left then.

I know poo poo happens and he's good-looking and will probably eventually be rich, but I can't keep feeling like we did Eason wrong, tbh. He always could've just peaced out on UGA during the transition, but he stayed loyal. Having him come in to hand the ball off to the 4th/5th string RBs, then not ever using him at all...bummed me out. But like I said, poo poo happens.

Washington fans: Eason throws a beautiful deep ball. Not the greatest at going through his reads. But really, we know nothing about 2019 Jacob Eason.
