No surprise to me. Philo is an emergency onluy QB in this game. He looked good against VMI. But that was against one of the weakest FCS teams after it had already been beat down. Can't really take anything out of that. It was basically a glorified scrimmage. Would not want to throw him in...

If Pyron is our QB on Saturday then I expect him to execute the game plan well. He has already shown he can do that. He engineered the win over VT 2 years ago and the GT-Miami game was 14-7 when he exited due to injury.

FEI has been updated through week 7. ND is currently at #8 overall, GT #50. ND is #21 in OFEI, GT is #79 in DFEI ND is #1 in DFEI, GT is #19 in OFEI ND is #71 in SFEI, GT #121 In addition to their All-American CB being out, there is some chatter that their primary kicker might miss the game...

Some not-love for Geoff Collins https://www.si.com/college-football/forde-yard-dash-rating-eight-new-coordinators-midway-through-season Geoff Collins (32), North Carolina Tar Heels defensive coordinator. Relationship status: Hate. Everything fell apart against James Madison on Sept. 21, and it...

Their D is going to be a legit pain in the butt for us. Their run D is arguably better than ours - they give up 3.4 yards per carry vs GT D's 3.6 and their yards per played allowed is a very low 4.2. We are going to have to take some chances through the air given their CB injury issues...

Will be an interesting game. Their D is the best one we will have faced so far. They are actually giving up fewer yards per carry (3.4) then our D is (3.6). They have the #1 rated Defensive efficiency at FEI. They are only giving up 4.2 yards per play overall. Only given up more than 16 points...

Interesting roundtable on the Super League idea (and revenue chasing in general) and whether it is a good idea for college football. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/as-college-football-relentlessly-pursues-something-bigger-what-will-it-leave-behind/ I Thought this question and...

Good article on the ACC-ESPN relationship and the upcoming 'look-in' and how it has been misinterpreted by many. Basically, the ACC has a contract with ESPN that runs through 2036 and is tied in with the GoR (part of getting the ACC Network was having a GoR), and the 'look-in' is less about...

If SMU wins today then I think they go at least 6-2 in conference and could potentially go 7-1 (everyone drops a game eventually). They have looked like a completely different team offensively since Jennings became the starting QB. They don't play either Miami or Clemson. In about an hour and a...

That is a very good win for Cuse. Going into last night's games, teams that had to travel 2 time zones to play were 3-7, teams that had to travel 3 times zone for a game are 2-5. So the home team in these long distance travel games have a large advantage. McCord is having a great year for...

This isn't even remotely accurate. You are comparing apples to oranges. You have to look at the actual payouts to see what is happening. Looking at the financial documents for each conference for the 2022-2023 financial year, ACC members received an average payout of $44.8M last year, with a...

While I generally agree with you and have always said that if I won the lottery the big pile of money i'd give to the AA could only be used for 2 things - paying down debt and funding scholarship endowments - this is just symptomatic of what college athletics, especially college football has...

I expect us to play better coming off a bye. A chance to rest and reset will be very helpful. I do like our chances. That said, I don't expect to roll over Duke. I also have a different view of the 2 losses than some seem to have. In the Syracuse game, we never had the ball in the 4th Quarter...

My fav take are the FSU kooks (actually really more just looking for something to hang a so far disappointing season on) who suggest FSU is purposely tanking the season, ruining ESPN's ACC viewership so that ESPN will end the ACC contract and FSU will be able to go to the SEC or B1G.

I tend to see 7 games that we can win or lose. Some will be harder to win than others. Ultimately I expect us to win 3 more, 4 if things go really well. Which 3 or 4 those will be I haven't the slightest idea. The 4 games that most GT fans consider the 'easier' opponents, I think we are likely...

The will be an interesting game. ND's offense is really pedestrian but their defense is really stout. ND's passing offense has not been very good and that is the weaker part of L'ville's D. I don't think L'ville will be able to run the ball against ND and ND will get more pressure on Shough then...

Here is a more behind the scenes article on what occurred. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/matthew-sluka-deserts-unlv-unfulfilled-nil-promise-drives-starting-qb-of-undefeated-cfp-hopeful-to-quit/ What should likely be pointed out based on this article is that fans should expect...

So basically the right side of the line has been sort of avg in run blocking and the left side has been below avg. Sort of fits the eye test. Definitely need to get that figured out.

This seems a good spot to put this. Not the first or last time we are going to see this UNLV's (3-0) starting QB has announced he is going to redshirt and enter the portal due to not receiving certain 'commitments' he was promised...

Those are pretty ugly. Feel similar to what 'my eyes' saw. The DT's were ok - they plugged the middle and kept L'ville's running game in check. The DE's, starting LB's and secondary were not very good. I was happy in terms of the defense only giving up 17 points. Though L'ville also only had...
