    Two examples of horrible coaching yesterday.

    The coaches are judged foremost on one thing: winning. As much as I appreciate what Dontae was able to do in the past, if they haven't put someone in the game, I trust that the coaches have a good reason for it: they think that the other players higher on the depth chart give them a better...

    Boston College Post Game Thread

    I agree with everything you said, and I would like to add something (although I hate to continue the Collins thread, but I think it's relevant to our current state): In addition to not developing as players due to having their hands tied behind their backs in practice, I think there's a more...

    Non-adidas GT Swag

    Well, I mean, this only makes sense. Everybody knows we do play better when wearing our black uniforms, right?

    Game 8 #UNCvsGT Media

    The worst part about this is that the press picked it up and ran with it. I believe I recall a number of articles from the start of the season that mentioned Mack Brown decrying UNC's tough nonconference schedule. All of them seemed to tacitly acknowledge his claim by not actually looking at...

    Haynes King Update: How Do We Feel About Him?

    Agreed. I'm one of the ones not calling for King to be benched - but calling for a potential cool down opportunity when the offense can't get moving and he starts turning it over. Correct me if I'm wrong, but turnover margin is one of the most reliable leading indicators of who will win a...

    Haynes King Update: How Do We Feel About Him?

    Speaking in response to some of the comments higher up in the Brent Key thread from earlier this week...at the start of Nebraska's season, Matt Rhule brought in a guy at QB who has great physical attributes, and looks tremendous in practice. And then he got in the game and turned the ball over...

    Brent Key is not the answer

    This. Sometime at the end of last season, when everyone was settling into the idea of Key as HC (some readily, others reluctantly), I posted about how we need to give him the same expectations we would any other new HC. Quite simply, it doesn't matter that he was on TFG's staff. It certainly...

    Early BC spread

    So do we, now. (See: Moala, who hopefully learned his lesson after BG…along with the rest of the team). 🤞🤞

    Early BC spread

    Agreed. I’ve been thinking about this a lot. While a bend-but-don’t-break defensive style can be maddening, when done right, it does what its name implies: it keeps the other team from scoring. And in spite of the yardage given up against Miami, that’s exactly what our defense did. On the one...

    Posted a thread on Miami's board as a response to them complaining about the officiating. Was I too harsh?

    To the OP, while I understand your motivation, I agree with the others who've pointed out that it's best not to let them trouble you. Miami fans are some of the worst of the worst, so it's especially best to just move on. They're not going to get smarter, and their stupidity is just going to...

    Conference Realignment

    Based on the stat above, roughly the same chance we had of beating Miami with about 40 seconds left on the clock. 🤔

    Ladies and Gentlemen...we're once again landowners.

    And not only that, per the Reddit CFB Imperialism map, we have more land than UGA. We were the 5th top gainer in square miles this week. (For background, take a look at this thread, page 5 & 6.)

    Let's keep some perspective here on our NEW HC

    Yep. I’m reminded of the expression: “luck is where preparation meets opportunity.” That was 100% an ugly win. And painful to watch at times. And yes - the other team deciding to not kneel down ultimately led to their losing the game. But (I think I said this somewhere else) - every close...

    ACC Standings

    Agreed - unless it's FSU. With the shenanigans they pulled this year (putting themselves ahead of the conference), I will continue to cheer for any team in any conference against them - excepting those people from Athens. (Clemson and UNC also are on my list.)

    On to Miami

    I'll (respectfully) agree to disagree with you on this one. There are indeed those who had doubts and were pessimistic after our last loss. Personally, I think that includes most of the fanbase - myself included. But then there were also those who dug in their heels and argued that one game...

    Ok lets see who is honest.

    Not sure if I’m a glutton for punishment or a die-hard fan, but I almost always watch every play of a game - even when I already know we’ve lost. But this time is a special memory for me. (Long story, feel free to skip). My 7 year-old son has never really been a football fan, but has recently...

    Brent Key is not the answer

    Hey there - No one should be getting personal attacks for their opinions. That sucks, and shouldn’t happen. That being said, some of those opinions should be dragged behind a car down Spring Street, then tossed casually into a dumpster. (But that’s the opinion, not the poster.) Appreciate you...

    Brent Key is not the answer

    I’m finally reading through this thread, and wanted to pull this back up. Two awesome quotes from future hall-of-famers. Saturday says a lot about our HFC, our coordinators, and our team. As much as I hate the BG result, sometimes you need to get smacked in the mouth to realize what you were...

    Where do we go from here?

    (I believe this comment actually aged a little more poorly, but to each their own.)
