Would be too much to ask for the Georgia Rivals board to just be happy and enjoy the win right? Yep. Let’s complain about WR blocking.

Re: seats. My season tickets at Sanford are in the endzone in the 300s, and I love them. We've been given the option to move to the sidelines, and I turn it down each time.

If you get the chance to get in the 200's, take it. But be ready to be among a bunch of old guard class of 60-70 something alumni who look at you funny if you do things like cheer or stand up.

Grandmother in law is right below us in the 200s and they are indeed pretty good. I'd make the move, but I don't think we have enough points yet to make the move. I've only had an account since I graduated ~5 years ago

Your own link reveals they were stopped for speeding. It's really unhelpful, at best, to resort immediately to "driving while black" when a speeding vehicle driving in the night time happens to have a black driver in a state where an entire 1/3 of the population is black.

It looks like a constructive possession case that was too weak to prosecute. :shrug: So, good result I guess. I agree that marijuana should be legalized. I have a similar problem with underage alcohol investigations being conducted when there are unsolved felony cases lingering in our communities. That ends my soapbox.

Maybe not for the initial pullover, but you really think a white dude speeding at night in Georgia is going to get his car searched for drugs?

Hell yes GA cops will look for weed if they smell it and arrest you if they find so much as a roach.

So this guy is speeding, the car smells like weed, and presumably they ran him and found his previous two arrests. Of course they search his car and arrest him.

The article above doesn't say anything about the car smelling. And certainly an amount that small wouldn't smell that strongly.

Truth. A good 32 oz Gatorade bottle makes a strong waterfall as well.

I don't know that I'd quantify either as a bottle rig though, I think of a bottle rig as one you smoke horizontally not vertically.

I mean yeah but if you want to use pure point differential you got to use both games.

I am not saying UCF is like obviously better but that they have a strong case to and their win lose is comparable to any of the teams in the playoffs. This is not a Hawaii thing no matter how they pretend.

Sure. Both games of course count. They both beat auburn in Atlanta. So UCF at Jordan Hare?

Kentucky claims a title from the 1950 season based on Sagarin rankings or something similar of previous years. They went 10-1 and beat OU in the Sugar Bowl ending their long winning streak, but the AP didn't vote again after bowl games so Oklahoma was already crowned champion.

UK also won the NCAA tournament in the 50-51 season. They gave Rupp a Cadillac. They gave Bear Bryant a watch. God dammit Kentucky could you not have ponied up for a car for the Bear too? Is that why we are cursed? Is Bear Bryant's watch our billy goat?

Do the 6 titles they give Bear credit for count that UK title? If not, Nick is 2 behind right?

UCF are champions, Georgia can take an asterisk, gently caress Alabama

If the NCAA ignores what UCF is doing, then I think it will exist only for goons to troll UGA/Bama fans, etc. The official record will almost certainly be the playoff winner, with UCF maybe added as a note.

I couldn't care less about what UCF does, and think it's a beautiful troll to the system, which will likely be expanded to 8 teams sometime soon after this year. I've watched enough UGA football over my life that they couldn't ruin it for me making it this far.

An improvement on what they were doing before? They've never awarded titles at the DI-A/FBS level, it's not something unique to the current system

Out of curiosity, why has the NCAA never awarded titles for football? Like, what is the difference between March Madness and the College Football Playoff? The number of teams? The way the teams are selected? Are there rules the NCAA would mandate on schools that they don't want to follow?

lol no. It has nothing to do with it being 98. If i was I’d point out how Tennessee was undefeated too so it doesn’t matter anyway. Like I said I find the UCF stuff funny. It really does come off as them seeing the attention UCF was getting and latching on. They had 19 years to do this and they do it after UCF does. If anything I’m more bothered by it for UCF’s sake.

But whatever you say buddy.


e: can’t speak for Tennessee fans in general. I’m sure the ones that were convinced Gruden was coming would probably wig out, those guys are idiots. I personally wouldn’t give a poo poo.

e2: I looked at a couple UT boards and don’t see anyone talking about it so it either hasn’t gotten traction yet or no one cares :shrug:

I was referring to Tennessee being involved this year as Bama or UGA not 1998. Worded that weird

Edit: It blows my mind how variable ticket prices are for this poo poo.
