  1. Expectations

    Agreed. Every game except the one at the end is essentially a toss up. It comes down to who performs on game day. I wouldn’t be surprised if we beat Louisville by 10 and I wouldn’t be surprised if they ran us off the field by 20. We have players and coaches who can compete. It comes down to...
  2. Expectations

    No it hasn’t. You have a very few elite teams and then about 70 teams that are all very similar in talent. This mantra that there are the haves and the have nots is not nearly as big an issue as fans looking for excuses believe it is. There are 134 FBS teams. Of those you have about 10 that...
  3. Expectations

    None of us know because parity has reached college football outside of the top 10 or so teams. There are good high school players all over this country and the portal is allowing them to be spread out. We have no idea who will win between us and Louisville because it all depends on performance...
  4. Syracuse Post Game

    That’s all it is. We lost to a motivated team at their place. Not the end of the world or season. We have 2 weeks to get over it, heal, and be ready to face a ranked team.
  5. House vs. NCAA

    I totally agree. Look at our game tomorrow. Two high level QB’s that were buried on depth charts or with high level teams who were always looking at the next shiny QB recruit. Both portal QB’s have revived mid level programs. For a school like GT, who is in the middle if a flaming hot bed of...
  6. House vs. NCAA

    You aren’t taking into account the punishment factor. Everyone assumes the same teams will outspend everyone. I totally disagree. A lot of teams didn’t buy players before, not because they couldn’t afford to, but because they knew they wouldn’t be protected by the NCAA. SMU is 100% proof of...
  7. House vs. NCAA

    I just disagree. We have spent decades playing without enforced recruiting rules. And actually it’s been worse than that - it’s been unbalanced enforcement. The entire world knew UGA paid Herschel yet nothing. The same for Cam, half the “U” teams, Pete Carroll at USC was buying houses, etc...
  8. House vs. NCAA

    I just don’t understand this way of thinking. NIL collectives have been around for decades (just under the table) and is the main reason we have the ”haves” and “have nots” and is why this sport has been fake. It’s basically been watching 230lb wrestlers play against the 155lb classification...
  9. Injuries

    Yep. Amazing how something that is on video that we all watched gets so easily missed by guys posting for the world to see. My biggest question for our team so far is how hurt is Alexander. Thus far, he has been a Haynes clone so losing him will hurt. Hopefully he is fine but we won’t know...
  10. AP Ranking

    And this is why I am celebrating the death of the bowl system and praise the larger playoff and will continue to praise it until it’s 30 plus teams. Most GT and college football are clueless as to how corrupt and fake the past 100 years of Natties have been. And they clearly have no idea how...
  11. Injuries

    I watched Fran Browns press conference and he was asked about his linebacker and he straight up said he’d be out maybe 6 weeks. Coaches can say what they want. I’m glad Key doesn’t say anything but you can’t say he is forthcoming with info. He learned from Saban and Saban kept info locked...
  12. Injuries

    What? There hasn‘t been any clarity on injuries at all this entire off season or the past 10 days. We know nothing about Cooley. We didn’t know anything about Seither for weeks after it happened. We don’t know anything about Alexander. I’m fine with not knowing but you can’t say Key doesn’t...
  13. Conference Realignment

    Did strength of schedule help FSU last year? They will use any reason or no reason to not give anyone outside the BIG or SEC a bid. Strength of schedule won’t matter one bit so feel free to root against them if you want. They may say it for cover but don’t listen to words, look at action. We...
  14. Conference Realignment

    Perceptions? Those are set and won’t change until the ACC wins for years. The ACC will get 1 team in the playoff because that is what the powers have already shown with actions. The ACC could have gone undefeated yesterday and it would have zero meaning in late October and into November when...
  15. Georgia State Post Game thread

    Happy with the win and team. We have sat thru too many games like this that we lose. It’s been an emotional 10 days for the boys and us fans so we need a mental rest and then move on to Syracuse. We saw their QB last year so unlike GSU we have film. I think we’ll be ready after a brief...
  16. Conference Realignment

    I know. Just bustin chops. I would absolutely expect coaches to want to limit games. If I were a coach I’d want to play one game against directional U yet get my full salary. My overall point is that everyone excepts the fans are getting what they want. Players now getting Benjamins over...
  17. Conference Realignment

    Why do you want to mitigate games? I hope we expand to a 16 game regular season and 32 team playoff. Players are now getting paid and there is an endless supply of players so let’s play from mid August to mid December and then use January for the playoffs. We sure don’t worry about mitigation...
  18. Conference Realignment

    Or have a 64 team tournament after a 14 game regular season.
  19. Conference Realignment

    I totally understand that. Not much I can do about that. Hence, I gotta work within what is actually possible. When they created the BCS it was one of the happiest days of my “free time life” because as a kid I remember asking my dad, as we watched the New Years day games, why is #1 playing...
  20. Conference Realignment

    The problem no one ever brings up about conference champions only is that schedules are not balanced. How many coastals would GT have won if we didn’t have an automatic ACC loss on our schedule while VT did not? Conference championships are nice, but they are not the end all. Ask FSU how they...
