Predicting the future is a tough job. At the start of the season its murky. But as we get a few games in, the picture becomes clearer.

And FTR its not like I'm picking the obvious favorite right now. Most people still think it'll be Bama or Clemson winning the national title.

Me picking Georgia at this time is still a bold pick.

Which is why when you do predictions period they are mostly wrong. It's because you don't know football. You certainly missed that bad coaching can bring down a team.

You picked 5-2 Tennessee after week seven last year.

That was me trying to ride out with my preseason prediction. When they were officially eliminated, I said Clemson would beat Alabama for the national title.

This year I'm earlier to the right choice. Its gonna be Georgia.

Alabama ain't winning another championship with Saban. Its over. Just face it.

Yet somehow, according to you, Butch was going to the 4 team playoff.

Said this before. I underestimated the importance of coaching in college football. I thought it was 90% about the players and maybe 10% coaching. And I repeatedly said I thought our players could overcome Butch Jones ineptitude as a coach.

Well I was wrong. Coaching is significantly more important in college football than I anticipated. I would say now that its 60% the players and 40% coaching. And thus given how important coaching is in college football, ineptitude to the scale of Butch Jones is simply too much for players to overcome.

Just watch how great these players look next year with a competent coach.

60/40 is still low. Football is 90% mental and 10% physical. It's not like basketball.

NEW PREDICTION: Georgia will win the 2017 National Championship.

I hate to say it cause I dislike Georgia so much. But this will be their year.

Kirby Smart will win the natty in year 2.

Damn you really are a bandwagon mfer lol sure they look great right now especially on defense

But still that don't mean they winning it all with a true freshmen no less

Now don't get me wrong they look far better then UF on both sides but this is a game that hasn't been close in a while we've kicked their ass with mediocre quarterbacks before

But if I'm being honest hard to imagine them not dominating our offense and giving our defense trouble

It makes me so much more confident when you pick against Bama.

If you admittedly know this little about football, why try to make predictions?

I honestly don't recall you saying it. But you make a lot of predictions. Namely, you had 5-2 UT winning the SEC and making the playoff. This is after your predicted that UT would be the first 15-0 team in history.

Basically, if you make enough predictions, one of them is likely to be correct.

But why do you feel the need to do this? Why??? You're wrong soooo much. Why?

I could take him seriously, except that during the preseasons is is adament about his predictions; even when say someone points out why they won't happen.

He's obviously a troll and all he is doing is pulling all of these explanations out of his ass. I'd have some respect for him if he stuck by his predictions and when they were wrong, he just said "Yeah, I sucked at that one". But no, he immediately just changes and makes a new one and downplays the previous one.

I disagree. A troll says things just to get a reaction out of people. I think he legitimately believes the reason he couldn’t recall details about Duke’s campus is because the lunch ladies are/were African-American. D4H is mentally disabled. That is my official diagnosis.

Lol like I always say, kiss of death. When this clown predicts something, you can pretty much bank on taking the very opposite.
