I've written this before, but it seems as though Johnson places his best offensive lineman at RG. Uzzi manned the position before Shaq, and it looks like he's trying to get Devine to take the position now. I don't know if it's because our QBs have all been right-handed, and thus the pitch...

I've heard he's a mathlete, too.

It gets old hearing the same nonsense about the ACC. The goalposts continually move for the conference. Gotta win a national title. Check. Then it was gotta win out of conference games. Check. Gotta beat the SEC on the last weekend. Check. There's always something. Last I...

That's bonkers. 25th percentile SAT is approaching 1,400 (on the old 1,600 scale), and the admission rate is down about 40% in three years. I wonder how many of us would have gotten in if these admissions standards were in place when we applied. I'm not so sure I would have. Also, this...

The wins in 1998-2000 were initially vacated by the NCAA for using ineligible players, but that ruling was overturned. For a team that he's not too worried about and seems awfully bored by, he sure seems to spend plenty of time delivering some factually dubious #hottakes.

Both teams will be starting new QBs. I hope Christian Campbell is ready to go.

Wrong thread, probably, but apparently Tennessee-Georgia Tech at the new dome is done.

The offensive line crushing their defense I expected; our defense holding them to 17 offensive points was slightly less expected (even accounting for the fact that they had two fewer possessions in the 2nd half - the "fumble" and then the sky kick returned the ball to us immediately). They...

#14 was okay.

God, this whole thread is, as Bret Bielema might say, "borderline erotic."

Dude won at Navy. NAVY. One thing I think we've all kind of grown accustomed to is the quality time management. How often are we out of timeouts with 8:00 left in the first quarter? Go back to the Southern game. We managed the clock perfectly at the end. These are issues that other...

I often wonder how differently we'd feel about Johnson had we beat UGA in 2009, 2010, and 2013 (all one possession games). Hell, if we had even just won one more, I wonder how differently he'd be perceived.

If he gets debited for coaching more games in seven years, he should be credited for coaching in a more competitive environment. Obviously, comparing across eras is difficult, because it's nearly impossible to control for all the various factors (academic rigor, opponents' academic rigor...

There's probably more required, though. Without doing the research, it's difficult to know, but it seems plausible that the reason the two point conversion percentage numbers are what they are is because teams were going for them late in games in which they were trailing and trying to reduce...

Going for two should be the default position, except for times where we score in the final minute or so and a tie would prolong the game or where a false start or procedure penalty backs up the kick to the seven yard line. I believe the math has been done on this several times (and I'll try to...

We have scored 30+ on Miami two of the last three years (28 in the year we didn't), and the others we played once, all in bowl games, which, I don't think, qualifies as a meaningful sample. In related news, when Oregon plays Ohio State, Auburn, or Stanford, they have problems.

I actually have thought it would be beneficial to come out one game lined up five wide on the first play of a half just to force the other team to burn a timeout. There's no way they'd have the personnel on the field to defend it.

All I ask of our defense is four punts a game. If we live around 11 possessions, and we get a turnover or two, plus four punts, we're going to win. I think this unit can deliver that. The secondary should be very good, but they need help from the pass rush, which I believe we're going to...

Not sure it's good or bad for Tech, but I thought the lines on some of the games were closer than I'd expect, and the line for the VT game was larger than I'd expect. Just fun offseason fodder, anyway.

http://espn.go.com/chalk/story/_/id/13154574/college-football-golden-nugget-releases-cfb-games-year I'm pretty shocked at some of the opening lines in our games. +2 against Notre Dame, +3 against Clemson, -14 against Pitt, pick 'em against FSU, -10 against UVA, -9.5 against VT, -6 against...
