OU is breaking in a new QB.
They lost a bunch of guys and a bunch of coaches, and then they had to face the Pirate!  Arrrrrrrr...

Well, we got "Week One" sort of, in the books, so there is that.  Things are looking "OK" for week two.

I think.

UGA has a woeful offense.
See you in Jax!

LSU missing Aranda, Brady and the QB?
And 17 players who left early or opted out.

Nah not Tebow Jr.  He's actually much better passing the ball.

Yeah and Florida 51 Ole Miss 35 is a real defensive slugfest too.  Always love to laugh at hypocrisy.  Such a real treat.  That's fun.

Twelving:  when the losing team scores 40+ points (or 50+ if you prefer)



Example of twelving:  
63 Texas
56 Texas Tech

.
Non-examples of twelving:
51 Florida
35 Ole Miss
.
44 Miss State
34 LSU




Some of you are so eager to say I'm wrong, that you, yourselves are wrong.  It's super fun!

Ohhhhhh, thank you so much for going there!

Ehlinger passing (Tebow in parenthesis): 
63.7% comp (66.4%)
8.2 adj ypa (10.4)
78/23 TD/INT ration (88/16)
146.3 pass rating (170.8)

TELL US MORE!  Pretty please double down!!!

So D'wan Mathis was a Michigan State commit/reservation who was jostled the apple cart as South Carolina was trying to get one of its highest rated QBs ever. Mathis flipped to Ohio State just before the end of the Urban era, then flipped to UGA, I think as the Fields thing was going down. 

And as a RS freshman, he gets an opening day start and get's replaced by a badly rated JUCO kid who sounds like a law firm and had stats that could only generously be called mediocre. What a sport.

I'd don't know that it's supper fun, but saying that the SEC is playing defense is wrong.  I'd say their offenses just don't find the endzone as often.

Oh I'm not saying you're "wrong."  You defined twelving as narrowly as you liked and you like to bring it up like it's meanfingul. It's intended to disparage the defense.  We all get it.  Even the cows get it.

But Florida 51 Ole Miss 35 is not an example of "good defense" even if it doesn't meet your carefully crafted definitiion of a stupid and meaningless concept.  Nor does Miss State - LSU.  Those were games with bad defense.

It's just always super-fun to see you show your ass with stupid hypocrisy, so keep it up, it's quite entertaining.

sorry for the cornfusion, I was quoting Afro to point out that 968 passing yards is NOT playing defense

the quote just didn't format properly

He was committed to Iowa State, before flipping to Michigan State, then to Ohio State, and finally Georgia.

And FWIW, MSU's two highest rated kids in his class, were his former HS teammates, who committed to MSU within a week of Mathis decommitting.  There was talk that the two were not unrelated.
