😂I don’t need information on either, but I remember someone saying something about Vegas knowing things going on. Was wondering why it may have went down again.

I'm not sure Iowa can beat UT, but it's yet to be proven that UT won't beat themselves. For me, the only way UT loses is catastrophic failures by the unknowns at some of the positions--primarily QB and defensive secondary.

It should be a close game. I think we win by 6+. I think we get up by 3-6 and make a late score to beat the spread. . .

😂 j/k

That same exact switch (DE to TE), produced the greatest TE we've ever had, and one the greatest the game of football has ever seen. Sooo...

Yeah, Jason Witten switching from DE to TE just didn’t work out
Terry McDaniel from WR to CB worked pretty good

Sorry, I should've clarified: those position switches haven't worked out very well for us post Bill Clinton being in office.

With Witten, George W was in the White House. More importantly, with ALL the examples a staff who could evaluate and DEVELOP were in place…like now.

I was just poking at you butchna. In our recent experiences most position switches result in transferring out. But I hope you're right. Technically Wittens position switch was his Freshman year, 2000. While Clinton was in office.

I went through 3 mock drafts and while they could be wrong, two of them had 2 FSU players in 1st and one of them had 1 FSU player.

Verse and Coleman are their first rounders. That’s 2 so I guess that could be considered “first rounder after first rounder”.

So 2 first rounders but 9 opt-outs for the draft.

Johnny Wilson will probably go before Coleman. The RB Benson is second round probably. Fiske, Bell, Lovett and Travis are first day guys. At worst the last four will go 4th round. How many teams do you know that have had 2-3 first rounders recently not named Georgia, Bama, Clemson, and Ohio State? I do know LSU had 2-3 in 2020 and Florida oddly enough had 2 in 2021. Outside of the few outliers. You are elite to have multiple first rounders. If Florida State gets 3, they are in rarified air for many teams. Those guys would’ve been big problems for Georgia.

I understand and agree with culture issues. The starters transferring indicate an issue. But listen to Devo, these kids would’ve played in the playoffs and would’ve been though to handle.
