Nico is on the bus

Who has been QB1 in practice this week?

Ai can do anything

anyone that falls for the lame AI stuff floating out there needs their eyes checked.. Even if I didn't know who the two people featured in that video was it would be immediately clear they are not human. Maybe on a small low res phone screen to a person with bad eyesight or not paying much attention? AI-generated Videos and photos have weird artifacts. Its easier to pull of in photos because its a still but moving video, AI jacks up small details like natural movement, hair, background items etc.

Damron?

Don't matter raw NICO in this game can absolutely make a difference. Really think half his problems have been over coaching by Halze. Roll the kid out and let him drop dimes early and often

You're right, AI stuff is mainly 50 levels below junk news currently. But 10 -15 years hence, we will be seeing Eyeborg at least, and 10 more years beyond that, Terminatorish.

A win tomorrow would be one of the biggest and most consequential since 98. It would put our playoff odds well into the 90% range and (I think) would be the first time we beat all three of our big rivals since 98 (sorry if I am wrong on that score)

2004 I believe

I think he’ll start. But they won’t run him and we’ll have to see how he handles contact. Hope Gaston has had a good week of prep.

Agree on Gaston. Even if Nico plays, it only takes one hit with a concussion and he can be out for a while. Moore needs to be ready.

2004 I believe

yep, you're right

 

[OrangeEtBlanc]

2006

Lost to Florida 21-20 that year. 2004 was the last time we beat Florida, Georgia, and Alabama in the same season. Lost to Notre Dame & Auburn x2 that year.

I mean, they're not leaving Nico behind whether he's playing or not..... But it's still nice to see.

If we knew that, there's a really good chance we'd be on one of those buses.

If he were symptomatic he would 100% not travel.

 

[just bob]

If he were symptomatic he would 100% not travel.

If it was bad, sure.

 

[VOLLeeann]

If the person is experiencing mild symptoms such as slight headaches or fatigue, a bus ride might be manageable, provided the ride isn’t overly long or stressful.

Nico had a pillow with him, so I imagine he caught a nap. Whether or not that nap was enhanced by medical/training staff, we'll never know.

He'll play, I think, but if he's not playing UT gets props for letting this stuff get out to make Kirby wonder.

 

[BelievetheHeup2022]

Another big question, is did Thornton make it on the bus???

My bigger question, why did you place that comma in the spot that you did?

When Trump wins the presidency, we win in Athens.

All bus rides suck.

 

[imavolfan]

Of course he is traveling with the team. Even if he isn’t playing he can help from the sideline.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Of course he is traveling with the team. Even if he isn’t playing he can help from the sideline.

Thing is if he was still failing concussion protocol and having symptoms they wouldn’t want him in such a noisy environment even if he’s on the sideline

 

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

Holy cow…it’s hard to believe those two things were the same year. I guess in politics, two election cycles ain’t that long, while 8 football seasons is an eon.

 

[KINGSVOL]

And what would be the best, top shelf coach play of the year....start and play Gaston in the 1st half. Gameplan, slow down, play possession football. Let Kirby make all the halftime adjustments he wants, trot Nico out in the second half and open up the can....! I can dream!

show me that kid throwing the barbell.

He threw it so fast you couldn’t even see it!

My opinion - this week has been an absolute MASTER class chess match being played by an absolute MASTER.
Coach Heupel has FORCED Kirby and Company to split time and prepare for what would be two completely different game plans wiht an already thin Defense.

I'm feeling better every minute about UT snapping an 8 game skid to these guys.

I see this a lot. Personally I don’t think the game plan is different. Kirby Is still gonna play the D that he’s been more than successful against us with. Sure Nico has the run threat but really hasn’t ran much. AND if it was a concussion I wouldn’t expect to see him running a ton. That said I think Kirby’s plan was the same either way. People are looking into it to much.
