Thanks, Boomer. This is much appreciated, apt and well done. Having re-watched the game, and recognizing that JT made two boneheaded plays, I think I have one comment. GT's offensive system, as a QB, is kind of like no limit poker--if you are playing against skilled opponents, you can make all...

You appear to be the only one who believes what you say is true, and you have sort of backed yourself into a corner logically so you are going to have to actually show us some evidence for us to believe the practice exists. You cannot prove that this is within the rules because it is not. So, to...

I can't say that it's not true some places, but I find it unlikely, it's not true at most every place and it's not the rule. If a single snap is played, the redshirt is burned. Then, if you are injured and have played in less than 30% of games, one can apply for a medical redshirt in the form of...

What I wrote above is completely confusing and useless, but I'm not going to correct it. Point is, the decision involves various scenarios and years, and it should. It should be well thought out, unlike my post!

It can be an involved logic game, if you are considering everything. The determination to redshirt or not and when is not as easy an answer as some suggest, or at least it should not be. Just throwing an example out, and not an analysis, but X and Z are starting DTs (Z is a senior) ahead of A...

I think and expect much more variation the third week than either of the first two, including variations of the same plays run the first two weeks.

Fans nicknaming players is not something I'm into--but of course do whatever you want in your own home. I will say that The Stove may sort of be an endearing exception that arguably came naturally. I believe that comes from the depth chart pronunciation guide, which essentially was saying, "hey...

I have not watched the replay and my FoxSportsGo was terrible with intermittent break-ups in reception. But here is what I saw, positives and negatives (only types of things that can carry over to games against better competition): Positive: - Searcy's move on the toss was as impressive as any...

I saw that and was curious if it was by design.

I have not watched the replay but I thought I saw Gray make two nice tackles on KR team, made a nice open field tackle on defense and, what was really impressive to me, was the "interception" on the botched PAT, only because his reaction was so quick to be able to catch the ball.

I am as big a fan of this guy as most anyone, but he needs to prove he can do it while protecting the ball.

I predict that if the first time GT has serious adversity, it overcomes it for a win then this is going to be a really special season.

I thought you just meant that the players physically beat Spurrier and the game is forfeited. I think UNC has a really good chance to beat USC (sorry, Eastman). Ohio State returns something like 18 of 22 starters, so VT could be really good, play well and lose. But, they could also win and it...

Right. Might would have been more indicative to shade that LB spot and use white background for the NKL.

That's not really how it works, which is why this is interesting. The readers vote and the writers provide a detailed write-up of the teams voted upon. The write-up is not dependent on how the readers voted, only that a particular team was voted into the top 25. The same writer also says FSU...

I dislike starting threads so I combined two into one. First, http://deadspin.com/*******-college-football-coach-comes-up-with-new-way-to-1726804159 Second, I've been following the top 25 (see background below--not your typical top 25) because the write-ups are pretty entertaining and...

Let's just hope everyone is healthy.

No disagreement here. I do not think the two are mutually exclusive. CPJ and JG are probably each looking for more, but kids are more likely to be honest while experienced coaches are likely to be coy while remaining honest. You nailed it when you said that CPJ wants his players to know he is...

Likewise. I also think each of them gave honest answers, which makes it somewhat interesting.

EDIT: selling short what he does...
