Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[PlanetVolunteer]

That’s really the best game of that week? If we keep winning other fans are going to get sick of our exposure.

First glance at the games that week it is

Kinda don't want it to be GameDay for that one lol

 

[BigSteve09]

Trap or nah?

I think it's good that Gameday will be there to give it a big game feel. Keep the guys focused.

A noon game on the CW is a trap game

Not true. If for example,UGA is 12-0 and plays GA Tech and three terrible teams you think they are not going to get in. Also, how to do fault a team for scheduling NC St which has been a fringe Top 25 team. When you schedule them several years in advance and they turn out to be bad.

I could see it hurting a team outside the SEC or maybe a team like Mizzou this year who does not play a great schedule. But for the most part, SEC teams will play a schedule that is difficult enough.

NC State is on par or better than Wake Forest, BC, Houston, Cal, and maybe even Wisconsin- all teams that SEC teams played this year.

And to think, today that would probably be targeting on the running back. This ain’t your daddy’s NFL anymore.

You see his freaking thigh pads?????

I find it hard to believe that GameDay will go to 3 SEC venues in the first 5 weeks.

GameDay will more than likely be at Oregon/OSU in week 7. Then week 8 they're gonna have to decide between Bama @ Vols or UGA @ Texas

Thorpe National DB of the Week!

Not going to be THAT guy, but my hope is we get good production from him the rest of the season and then be open minded to the possibility he portals back to his beloved LSU. Ideally Sanders backs him up next season but gets enough reps to seamlessly be THE GUY in 2026, but not petrified at the thought of fast tracking our better talent in our better OL classes. Perry, Warren, Ginther, Satterwhite and Anderson with the talent AND culture > best available portal mercenary imo.

If LSU is so "beloved"..why did he leave to start with? Looks like he would learn to love where he is...where he is a NC contender.

Side note...IF any of the crap rumors are true...just one more reason to hate pure mercenaries.

I said..IF..

I'm skeptical.

Watching Arkansas Auburn. Arkansas not impressive. Auburn is terrible.

Most likely depends on who wins this weekend

Any P4 team is getting in a 12-team playoff at 12-0 regardless of schedule. But remember that UGA opened with Clemson, meaning it will play 10 P4 teams: 8 SEC + Tech + Clemson.

I seem to remember that Kenny Chesney did something like that during the Tebow years.

Chesney entered the stage in a Gator jersey and helmet…other rivals also. Never cussed out UT.

Fair point, I was actually wondering if we thought it was true given they'd also want to be in Knoxville for Bama.

That's the meet me out back uniform...........word is Weezer has that tattooed on his chest!

Who is Wingstop?

One of @SoilVol's hunting rifles imo. Or maybe @Volunteer821's.

(Possibly also refers to the chicken wing chain.)

He was behind two NFL bound (most likely first round) OTs and was projected top backup for the second straight season. Not creating a conspiracy theory…just preparing for real life contingencies. I don’t know this kid’s heart, so “beloved LSU” could be unfair. Louisiana kid picked them as a top 10 prospect and played out a season. Could return home and be a top NFL prospect…not a wild shot. And not worried either way.

What is ment by the Knoxville news sentinel headline "If this new Heupel lasts"

 

[vol9799]

I will never understand the pearl clutching at what our crowd did that game. I don't condone it, but if you wanted a recipe for a crowd littering the field they perfected at that game. Kiffin + awful awful one-sided officiating + constant fake injuries + recently allowed alcohol sales. Piss off a drunk night crowd anywhere and that behavior may seem mild. The SEC can control the officiating (somewhat at least), liquor sales, and a rule for faking injuries and they went the opposite way to avoid that on each. They need to look in the mirror.

Exactly, what Ole Miss fans did to our basketball team just the year or two before was far more dangerous than what happened in Neyland that night but that got excused and swept under the rug. The officiating that night was criminal! The Singaporean government has executed people for less heinous crimes. It was stupid for the fans to do, but all the people acting like it was unprecedented, despicable and the end of the world were/are just as ignorant & pathetic as those people hurling things onto the field.
