Seeking6 Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Just a general observation. Florida St, Florida, Tennessee, UCLA, Nebraska, Texas....these programs have been or were the gold standard for so long. It's amazing to me given the resources they commit to football what their programs look like. I know things can change with new coaches...but wow. I mean watching a bad Florida team beat up Tennessee in a half full stadium? That game was THE game for so long. Kind of sad to see actually as a fan of college football.

I can definitely speak for UT as I follow the Vols. They did the Bill Mallory/Joe Tiller thing when they ran Phil Fulmer off the field. They have never recovered. Bad hires out the ying yang at HC. Nebraska is one I will try to tackle. They had their coach. They just didn't stick with him. He is doing great at Ohio. They made a HR hire this time but the Huskers are at a disadvantage geographically when it comes to recruiting. To me FSU, Fla, and Texas have no excuses regardless of the coaching changes. As far as UCLA? You sure you didn't mean USC.? I never considered the Bruins as a gold standard. That is all I have right now!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is all I have right now!!!!!! Should have put USC in there too. I put UCLA in there because they made the Rose Bowl or other New Year's Day Bowls (when that was important) I think 7-8x over 15 years during 80's and 90's. Basically have sucked since 2000.

Seeking6 Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 Interesting development. Clemson announced this week starting qb Kelly Bryant would be backup to 5 star phenom Trevor Lawrence. That now makes 4 qb's who have left Clemson since January. Move was made only 4 games in so I'm assuming Dabo was doing him a favor so he could still redshirt. Anyway...Lawrence is really, really good but Dabo and Clemson better hope he doesn't get injured. Could derail a Final 4 team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could derail a Final 4 team. And Bryant missed practice both Monday (excused) and yesterday (unexcused) lending fuel to the fire that he may be looking to transfer. Would qualify under grad transfer rules to play immediately next year if he does not play anymore this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do still have Chase Brice who was a very highly rated QB (so I assume capable to serve as a solid backup) out of high school but my guess is Dabo didn't anticipate this move at all or he probably wouldn't have done it. Buyer beware to any kid who wants to play for this guy...as a modern philosopher once said...these ho's aint loyal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Purdue won last week, they take all of BC's previous land. You lose all land you have previously acquired if you lose a game, but then you can win back new land by beating a new team. It's not a situation where the chart continues to be whittled down until only one team is remaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that is what Bama fans thought a few years back when tOSU kicked their southern butts. BTW, anyone keeping an eye on UK? I bet Bama and UGA are.

Seeking6 Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Interesting comments from Saban yesterday about student section being empty at last week Bama game. I know we've had some issues with our students being late or no shows. Just thought it's funny that if a dynasty has trouble filling the student section...should Fred start exploring the idea of reducing the number of student tickets again?
