Big difference between saying we have 63 guys that can play and 63 scholarship guys. But, I really believe I heard the original statment as 63 healthy scholarship guys.

SECN just said we have 63 scholarship players which is bs and makes us sound like a scrub program. Stupid.

Fwiw 247 page lists a bunch of walkons as their mods have stated in the past, idk why..but note they are on the 2019 page, if you change to that. Stay on the deafault 2020 page and things are correct.

SECN (Rodgers) also said Bowden was a good thrower....LOL

I can't recall Pruitt ever saying it as only having 63 on scholarship, I've only ever heard him say the same as you. 63 healthy/able body guys on scholarship

Weird thought:

What if 1) Bama wins out, 2) LSU wins out, but loses to UGA in SECCG, 3) UGA wins completely out???

Does the SEC get 3 teams in or wtf happens there?

I doubt the committee puts 3 SEC teams in the championship. There would be a revolt is college football. Hell, I doubt they will even get two teams in the playoffs.

Offensive “tageting” should be addressed. Many times the offensive played drops his head and forces a defensive targeting call (Bama game). This is something that needs to be looked at.

I disagree. I think that if a defensive player lowers his head and then an offensive player lowers their head and they make helmet to helmet contact there should be no flag either way.

He would absolutely get my 2nd place vote if we win out.

Orgeron
Pruitt* if we win out
Mullen
Malzahn

I think have been the best coaching jobs this year. Auburn’s schedule was absolutely brutal this year. Maybe the hardest in the last few years.

He will most likely be fired, but Muschamp's schedule is insane: Alabama, FLorida, Georgia, Clemson, Texas AM... Of course, VOLS have had this kind of schedule for years, and nobody has shed a tear for us.

LSU would be out b/c of timing of loss. GA and AL likely in.

Bye week is at a really good time. Maurer was definitely rusty tonight. Still like the quarterback by committee. I think if one is off, bring in another. JG seems to do better when he's not the starter--maybe just a matter of getting the butterflies out..

I agree - plus I think it gives him a chance to watch the defense and figure out wha’s what. I think it helps him “read” it when he gets in the game - he can play instead of “think”.

No way. It's a harmless presnap penalty. 1st down is waaay overboard. It is a standard 5 yd penalty. Can't think of any other 5 yd penalty that results in an auto 1st down.

A couple of things about this. I don’t think it should be a presnap penalty. Other than offsides with contact or a clear path to the qb the offense gets a chance to “succeed” on the play and decline the penalty.

And the main reason I think it should be an automatic first down is the reward the defense gets If it’s not called. It’s a huge advantage and if the officials miss it they have a much higher chance to succeed. It’s certainly way more beneficial to the D than say lining up in neutral zone so thus thus the penalty needs to be more imo

I think its hard to say at all at this point. I think Clemson is definitely going to win out, but LSU could lose in the SEC championship to Georgia. Georgia could lose to Auburn. Alabama could lose to Auburn. Ohio State could still lose to Penn State and/or Michigan, and Minnesota could be undefeated with a couple ranked wins heading into the BIG10 CG. A 1 loss Oregon or Utah will win the Pac12. Baylor could be undefeated and win the Big12 with several ranked wins.

Whatever causes the SEC to have as many teams as possible LEFT OUT of the playoffs then I am for that scenario. UT or bust. None of this SEC bullshnizzle.
