Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I've read a lot of posts worrying about 2-loss Tennessee vs 2-loss this or that and how the committee is already working on ways to screw us...


Some reminders:

You cannot have a 2-loss problem until you have 2 losses.

Other teams can't have a 10-win backdoor to the playoff until they have 10 wins.

With the exception of the National Championship game itself, college football games are not played in a vacuum. There will be meaningful wins and losses across the nation in the coming weeks that will impact our path(s).

For now the only game that matters is this weekend. For now the only other team that we should care about is Georgia.

My security cameras caught a black bear passing through my backyard around 1am last night.

You sure it wasn't @Weezer? Check for poop all over the place.

Win one game at a time.

If you have watched UGA at all, you know they are beatable. We match up very well. Pressure Beck, stop the run, hold them to less than 20 points - just like our D had done all season. UGA's O line is very average.

Even Moore can win against them if he plays within himself and finds the open receivers underneath. Our heavy run personnel packages are awesome. However, I expect Nico to be back.

If Indiana beats Ohio state who does Ohio state get in over?

I nominate Bama to be eliminated. We will eliminate Georgia ourselves.

Are you suggesting all hairy creatures look alike???

Definitely racist.

If our OL plays their best game, part of which is not having a ton of false starts, and our D plays their normal game, we win.

Utah's AD took the podium postgame an ripped officiating and the Big12. Said Utah won the game and it was "stolen from us," by unprofessional officials and rigging essentially. Said he would be calling the Big12 commissioner.

We've been leaky on 1st half run D the last to weeks. Gotta fix that.

Beating Georgia in Athens will be so SWEET.

As expected

Surprised but not unhappy that the "Michigan STOLE" sign is so prominent.

 

[Weezer]

Beat Georgia, beat UTEP, beat Vandy. Then comes the SEC CG against either Texas or TAMU. Just need to keep winning.

Wishing Vitale nothing but the best. The guy has always brought the enthusiasm to the game he so dearly loves..

Hope he does well. Once it gets into the lymphnodes it's bad. My dad died of that two years ago. He would have loved this year's Vols. Defense and a running game was his kind of football. I miss him.

He wasn't wrong

Whoa...just saw that Tony Todd died yesterday. RIP Candyman.

Moore did a good job last night. Without those two DPIs being committed, Gaston would have had a big night. They took a lot of yardage away from him. And both drives would have not unlikely ended in TDs.

I nominate Bama.

Exactly I don’t understand how the Big ten gets 4 in anyway? Let’s say Indiana wins wouldn’t that mean Ohio state is out because teams like 2 loss ole miss or bama would get in over them based on strength of schedule?.. but if Ohio state wins its Oregon and Ohio state and Penn state getting in, but where does that leave Indiana?…again you going to put them in over ole miss or Notre dame? What’s the point of strength of schedule then? So many variables still at play.
