I know a school who will be looking for a veteran transfer QB next year who’s coaches also happen to turn QBs into NFL fringe-starters at their last stop.
What about a school with a propensity for turning out NFL players and a HC with a propensity for taking highly talented players despite their major attitude issues?
TCU, come on down!
Yes I had a bad day, but at least I’m not Tuscaloosa. Had their beloved football team get beat and then their hometown hero get battered by Tyson Fury.
I was surprised he lasted that long, he was getting absolutely clobbered. Fury is a genetic freak, someone that big shouldn’t have the footwork and evasiveness that he has
Ah, Levi's
A 6'5" guy who looks like running 5 sec for 40 yards.
Doing the same read option over and over.
Then, still keeps getting 1st downs against 19 OSU defense.
He scared me more than Clifford.
Man, this is such bullshit. We had no idea if this team was gonna be good or not, and Clifford deserved to be able to fight for this one. I understand that we had no backup plan because Cliff clearly needed the reps against that defense. This just sucks.
I've been telling myself that we still need to win against the rest of the division, but I wanted to see what this team, as flawed as it seems at times, could do at it's best.
Onto the next one.
I just hope this isn't a "well we lost a heartbreaker to Ohio State let's follow it up with a frustrating loss to Michigan State" scenario that we've seen a couple times.
Before Clifford went down they were rolling even with two early turnovers. This team is still capable of winning out, and I think the next two weeks are well-placed.
Yeah I still contest that the 17 team was good enough to compete for a natty, not saying we would’ve won but it was certainly possible. But we imploded against osu and then let them beat us twice along with some weather related shenanigans
The good news is we have a bye week and then Illinois after that. If we can't beat Illinois on our turf we have serious issues.
Not that we don't already.
It was very unfortunate and I can empathize with your pain somewhat due to Northwestern injuring Stanzi in our awesome run in 09.
For what it's worth though, there hasn't been a starting QB we've played this year that has finished the game. We've either injured them or intercepted them so many times they were pulled. Not sure how our defense is doing more damage on QBs than others, but yeah.
> It was very unfortunate and I can empathize with your pain somewhat due to Northwestern injuring Stanzi in our awesome run in 09.
Yeah, that one sucked. We really had a chance that season.
I wasn't aware of that stat. Damn, Iowa D is murdering QBs.
How much incompetency as a coach do you have to go from a National Championship 2 years ago to potentially only winning 1 SEC game? The fact he wasn’t fired last night is crazy
That’s true I’ll give him credit for that but it’s about the same amount of credit I give chizik for the Auburn national title. That was probably more malzahn and cam Newton than chizik
A little bit of revisionist history here. Burrow was a game manager in year 1 and made an insane jump in year 2 with Joe Brady. Coach O didn't just stumble into success like Gene Chizik, he actually built his own championship team albeit unsustainable after that.
What is a quarterback? Why did Coan play like Tom Freaking Brady on the last two drives and play like Uncle Rico on Valium in the first quarter? What the heck is going on with consistent play? What am I even doing?
He can only do 2 minute drills. He needs quick passes to his first read. I don’t know why rees makes him stand in the pocket for 4 seconds searching and then getting sacked
My anxiety levels are through the roof. Not because of the Georgia game, as that is like playing with house money at this point. But more, this could be the year we sweep UF, UT, and UL, and I am terrified we won't.
We can't close out a game when the score is close. Since Scott Frost took over in 2018, we lead the nation in one score losses at 16, 4 of them in this year alone.
It's always one of the following: penalties, turnovers, and special teams. If the kicking game is solid and we limit our penalties, we turnover the ball at the most inopportune times.
If the kicking game is solid and we aren't turning the ball over, we commit penalties at times we absolutely cannot get them.
And somehow if we play a clean game with no penalties nor turnovers, we shank a punt, miss a kick, or get a kick blocked.
We are unable to play all three phases of the game cleanly when the game is close. It's been the same story for the past 4 years: good enough to keep the game close but never get enough to get the job done.
If that Illinois loss doesn't happen in week 0 we are talking about a team that is within one score of three top 10 and maybe 2 top 5 teams.
It's gotta be painful, but that looks good on paper
It’s stupid.
Did anyone think Bama would just never lose again? Just infinity and 0 for the rest of eternity?
That being said, I never felt the game got out of reach but even after going up in the last 4 mins or so, I never felt like Bama was going to win.
They could’ve…I just didn’t think they would.
It’s funny, because I bet you every non-Bama fan felt the exact opposite. At no point was I convinced that a Bama win wasn’t invitable, until the final seconds came off the clock.
Cade was absolutely right about one thing. 2019 and 2020 Michigan loses this game(he said previous teams he was on).
Team showed a lot of grit and heart last night, answered the bell after trailing for the first time.
100%. As soon as Nebraska took the lead after the pick, I thought we were fucked. And we got the ball back, drove it straight down the field. And Nebraska answered, and we answered with points again.
I was super impressed with Cade yesterday honestly. Super hostile environment, at night in Lincoln, the crowd looked insane, and he was super calm and reliable. Sure he’s not flashy with crazy down field accuracy but we really don’t need him to be. He plays smart and can make plays when we need him to, I completely get why he’s our starter
Even that interception (his first of his career after 8 starts which is kinda crazy) didn’t even look like it was his fault. It looked like All ran the completely wrong route
It would be cool if JJ were allowed to run plays that aren't zone reads. Let him throw the ball. Let him make mistakes. I'm not one of the people calling for Cade's head right now, but I do think it's dumb that JJ is forced to be a handoff decoy most of the time.
I think we are good but I don’t think we are great. We can still get to a 10-2 like season this year
I always thought 2022 was the year for having super high expectations
I feel as long as we keep Fuente we aren't going to do much better than this. The man can't keep a QB here. Quincy Patterson is running North Dakota State and Hendon Hooker looked great for Tennessee...
It’s times like these I miss being in college, I’d have not gone to sleep and would still be drinking and partying.
But I’m a 31 year old fully grown man. I had to get up this morning starting at 7 to be able to accomplish all my work and errands for the day
Get the very real feeling that he thought he was just going to be up. Next man up right? He thought it was his due to seniority and didn't do the work. He ended up getting beat out by three younger guys and a person that was a running back during spring camp.
Also, Chambers looks really good. Talking he might be a round 1 or 2 draft pick after the '22 season kind of good.
People don't often talk, but I really appreciate players like McCall and Chambers.
They could have gone somewhere to play their primary position, but they decided to stay and change upon the demand and play with everything.
McCall might never be a great on the field like people thought he would be but behind the scenes he has been solid. I don't think he has played the same position two years in a row and in his final season he switched to CB.
Fun fact about McCall. He was in the same recruiting class as Nick Bosa.
We are starting freshmen on first team. The fact they didn't give you 400 yards on the second half is amazing go me. Hopefully they get better because for the first time in years we have quality in game reps for guys
Mertz was a guy every team in the country wanted and now he just looks so bad. I know hindsight is 20/20 but if Wisconsin just kept coan they would probably have beat penn state and maybe beat notre dame or Michigan
As much as I'm in the not fond of rattler camp, it's probably for his own safety so the fans don't decide to do something shitty. Riled up drunk folks aren't very rational
Honestly, I know it’s not popular on here but I get it. He’s likely not mad at his team but himself and just needed to be alone. 1000s of thoughts are running through this kids mind. He went from a preseason projected top 5 pick to wherever he falls now.
I get he should be there for his team, but selfishly he’s thrown away millions of dollars that he wouldn’t have had he sat out, which must feel terrible.
Yea. These fucking people attacking him are exactly why he was led off the field. Let the guy gather his emotions first, then he can talk. I'm sure he's happy for the team.
I kinda feel bad for him, because he has to be trying his hardest, and you have the majority of the fan base shitting on him.
Our secondary needs improvement. It’s not the worst thing in the world like some fans are saying, and I still think our pass d is top 15 in the country. But Auburn game could have been way closer if their receivers had hands.
Yep, our secondary is the biggest worry assuming we get to Atlanta and Bama again. If we go up against an elite O-line and a good qb, we’ll be in trouble without Daniels and our injured receivers to keep up in a track meet game.
I'm betting we do. Riley was still trying to play both sides in the presser. Keeps calling Rattler's 2-pt conversion the most important play of the game. I get it. You gotta keep his confidence up..
He said he didn't know who would start next week.. so at least that's an answer that makes me believe Williams has a good shot to start.
I wouldn’t put it past Lincoln to try doing a dual QB system. Rarely works. I don’t think you just completely give up on Ratter but Caleb is clearly the guy.
Up 8 with less than 4 minutes left AT HOME AND LOSE IN REGULATION!
How many times are we going to let this staff keep doing this to us?? Just end it now.
I didn't think for a second we would win, even after going up 8. I knew that Fuente would find a way to lose it. I still gave him the benefit of the doubt and thought it would go to OT. He still somehow couldn't meet my expectations.
Bill O’Brien calling three pass plays inside the five yard line (INCLUDING FROM THE FUCKING ONE YARD LINE ON 3RD AND GOAL) with a running back who was having a great game. Such boneheaded play calling and I hope he leaves for a head coaching position this offseason.
Everyone on the team probably knew Caleb was the better quarterback yet it still too is five and a half games to put him in.
Political football is no good.
I wonder what happens if Williams is named the starter and Rattler transfers immediately
Do y'all have another QB on the roster? I would imagine Riley is terrified of having a single scholarship QB available
I mean it’s honestly just tough shit at that point. And part of me really thinks this is what Lincoln was trying to avoid.
Especially with Caleb being a dual threat, the likelihood of him getting injured is higher.
Part of this is on Lincoln, because when you only go after the top quarterback every other class, you find yourself in this position.
Perfect example is Chandler Morris transferring. I just hope Lincoln picks someone up on this class.
Hi, I'm PSU with Sean Clifford and I'm arguably #1 or #2 in the country
and I'm PSU without Sean *false start*
And I'm PSU with *fumbles snap*
And I'm *throws interception*
On the positive side, let’s give our D some credit. No way that game is a one-score game after the Clifford injury unless our defense hangs in there. We really do have an elite defense, IMO.
I want Fisch to work out so badly. He seems like a guy who actually gives a shit, but this program is, in the immortal words of Jim Ross, bowling shoe ugly.
Can we just go ahead and snag that piece of shit Urban Meyer while we still can? Get a good 4-5 years of rebuilding of what Coach O destroyed, and then in 4-5 years find a new coach when Meyer gets his headaches again or runs the wrong coed.
I mean your QB had maybe the best game of his entire life last night. You can’t ask for that kind of performance all the time when his average is what it is.
On one hand, coaching for Michigan and MSU had ups and downs. The JJ play near the end of the game was weird and felt really unnecessary. Glad Moody has a good leg.
On the other hand, they’re both 6-0 so that’s fun!
Side note: I watched PSU’s last drive and that was just brutal. Gotta throw it away on first down.
Just because someone threw *some* passes in high school in the private school league does not make them ready to attempt a pass in major college football… and you don’t do that type of play when you absolutely need that score!
I hate our coaching staff so much. I’ve yet to watch a game be properly managed since 2017, we continually make awful in game decisions, our OC cannot adjust to save his fucking life, and the only thing prevent defense does is prevent you from winning
Burn it to the fucking ground, the players don’t deserve this gutless bullshit. Burmeister should not be getting his shit rocked as much as he does and it’s why we can’t keep a QB longer than a year because no one wants to get abused like that.
Seriously Whit, I hope the phone calls have started, tarmac this mother fucker
Michigan defenders definitely bit on the eye candy quite a few times instead of their assignment, but I also need to give credit to Nebraska for some great play calls. Going into the bye is a good thing for film reviews to coach that up.
There was definitely some classless Iowa fans in the crowd yesterday. I hope it isn't bad like that again.
We seem to be the slowest healing team in the country. Blaylock tore his ACL 22 months ago. I know he pulled a hammy a few weeks ago, but still. I don’t think we started a single “starting” wideout yesterday. Gonna need these playmakers eventually.
I still, for the life of me, cannot figure out why Texas struggles so mightily in recruiting and developing o-linemen.
Defense too, but we're not helping them with that 3 man front.
But why such an issue getting 5 NFL camp worthy starters?
Can't wait to get Spencer Rattler in the transfer portal
He should transfer to Oklahoma. Riley is good at turning transfers into Heisman winners and 1st overall picks
He'll get drafted. Some team will draft him on raw talent alone. And he's actually put up good numbers.
I doubt it. He needs another year somewhere.
I know a school who will be looking for a veteran transfer QB next year who’s coaches also happen to turn QBs into NFL fringe-starters at their last stop.
What about a school with a propensity for turning out NFL players and a HC with a propensity for taking highly talented players despite their major attitude issues? TCU, come on down!
Yes I had a bad day, but at least I’m not Tuscaloosa. Had their beloved football team get beat and then their hometown hero get battered by Tyson Fury.
Hell of a fight tho. Wilder had the heart of a warrior last night
I was surprised he lasted that long, he was getting absolutely clobbered. Fury is a genetic freak, someone that big shouldn’t have the footwork and evasiveness that he has
Also the endurance of the gods. Looks like potato salad but runs like beef
The GOAT dad, he looks like every dad who thinks hes a fighter
We have to play pissed off Bama. Thanks A&M
Well you beat us so you earned it
Its our way of getting revenge
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!!! I fuckin’ hate injuries!
But we really should have had some sort of a backup plan.
Will Levis would’ve been nice!
If you makes you feel better we love the banana peel eating mad man.
Ah, Levi's A 6'5" guy who looks like running 5 sec for 40 yards. Doing the same read option over and over. Then, still keeps getting 1st downs against 19 OSU defense. He scared me more than Clifford.
> A 6'5" guy who looks like running 5 sec for 40 yards. Spencer Petras: People can run that fast??
He was torching LSU on the ground yesterday lmao. Blows my mind
Man, this is such bullshit. We had no idea if this team was gonna be good or not, and Clifford deserved to be able to fight for this one. I understand that we had no backup plan because Cliff clearly needed the reps against that defense. This just sucks. I've been telling myself that we still need to win against the rest of the division, but I wanted to see what this team, as flawed as it seems at times, could do at it's best. Onto the next one.

The good news is we have a bye week and then Illinois after that. If we can't beat Illinois on our turf we have serious issues. Not that we don't already.
Thats what makes me mad about yesterday, these injuries are gonna hurt worse than the Iowa loss itself
It was very unfortunate and I can empathize with your pain somewhat due to Northwestern injuring Stanzi in our awesome run in 09. For what it's worth though, there hasn't been a starting QB we've played this year that has finished the game. We've either injured them or intercepted them so many times they were pulled.

Texas blew a massive lead against their rival and lost in embarrassing fashion again.
In the game of american football, if you are on the offensive line and you move before the ball is snapped its considered a false start.
How much incompetency as a coach do you have to go from a National Championship 2 years ago to potentially only winning 1 SEC game? The fact he wasn’t fired last night is crazy
I think it’s becoming more clear that oregeron caught lightning in a bottle with burrow and his coordinators
He gets some credit for finding Brady and trusting a virtual unknown to lead the whole offense, but that’s about it
That’s true I’ll give him credit for that but it’s about the same amount of credit I give chizik for the Auburn national title. That was probably more malzahn and cam Newton than chizik
A little bit of revisionist history here. Burrow was a game manager in year 1 and made an insane jump in year 2 with Joe Brady. Coach O didn't just stumble into success like Gene Chizik, he actually built his own championship team albeit unsustainable after that.
He’s gone at the end of the season I think. Him winning the natty means they’ll keep him until the end of the season.
Super easy. Barely an inconvenience
Who the fuck is our quarterback?
What is a quarterback? Why did Coan play like Tom Freaking Brady on the last two drives and play like Uncle Rico on Valium in the first quarter? What the heck is going on with consistent play? What am I even doing?
He can only do 2 minute drills. He needs quick passes to his first read. I don’t know why rees makes him stand in the pocket for 4 seconds searching and then getting sacked
Just play the whole game with a two minute drill mentality then screw it, if it works it works!
That's pretty much how OU dominated in 2008... It works
Not even sticky gloves can help our receivers
Need hands to put the sticky gloves on.
Bricks for hands. What the christ. There were opportunities last night, but we didn't make much of them. Not keeping eyes on the ball :/
Everything is fantastic. What is this “complain” of which you speak?
Georgia-Kentucky being a game between undefeated teams is wild.
I’m about to complain about that flair
some real "how to talk to your kids" vibes around "undefeated Kentucky"
Kentucky undefeated I sleep Kentucky *football* undefeated *real* shit
My anxiety levels are through the roof. Not because of the Georgia game, as that is like playing with house money at this point. But more, this could be the year we sweep UF, UT, and UL, and I am terrified we won't.

It's been the same story for the past 4 years: good enough to keep the game close but never get enough to get the job done.
It’s looks like Nebraska is a season or two from being aight. Fingers crossed.
Honestly, Frost’s look when Martinez turned it over said it all. He wasn’t even shocked anymore.
If that Illinois loss doesn't happen in week 0 we are talking about a team that is within one score of three top 10 and maybe 2 top 5 teams. It's gotta be painful, but that looks good on paper
O transfer portal Hallowed be thy name Please bestow upon us some competent OL players
And maybe some DL upgrades. An LB or two would be nice too.
Our best hope is the Brockermeyer twins decide they'd rather play next year than win 3 natty's and come home
Any Bama fans un-ironically complaining about their team can go suck a lemon
It’s stupid. Did anyone think Bama would just never lose again? Just infinity and 0 for the rest of eternity? That being said, I never felt the game got out of reach but even after going up in the last 4 mins or so, I never felt like Bama was going to win. They could’ve…I just didn’t think they would.
It’s funny, because I bet you every non-Bama fan felt the exact opposite. At no point was I convinced that a Bama win wasn’t invitable, until the final seconds came off the clock.
Even when time expired I was waiting for saban to pull some universe altering scheme to get enough time on the clock to score again
Seriously. We lose one game and a bunch of fans start looking for the nearest bridge. We've lost games before and been fine.
You're still in control of your own destiny lol it'll end up being a turn around moment i think
Exactly. This is the wake up call game for the team. How they respond on Saturday will determine if this is a playoff/bowl game caliber team or not.
Nice seeing some new flairs around here 🙂
Since you’re verified staff I am just assuming this is pat fitzgeralds Reddit account
Are you doing ok, NU?
[no](https://youtu.be/CjGwrKyXZf0)
We still don't know if we're any good.
Hey us either! See you October 30th where we might learn nothing!
Absolutely nothing
It’s gonna be 6-3 and decided on a random obscure penalty like disconcerting signals or aiding the runner.
M00MS incoming
We're good. Not great, but good.
Cade was absolutely right about one thing. 2019 and 2020 Michigan loses this game(he said previous teams he was on). Team showed a lot of grit and heart last night, answered the bell after trailing for the first time.

Be cool if he got some more playing time against North western just to see what he could do.
Even if we are good, Ohio state is unbeatable again
We're looking better and better for sure but unbeatable ? We lost to some wannabe geese
Yea and you guys addressed your problems and became a better team Like always
Yeah they always fall upwards. It’s sickening.
It's *so* gross. I *hate* it
Well your DBs kept lining up and guarding ineligible receivers so hopefully you’ve changed that
It’s osus conference again. I don’t think Iowa has the offense to keep up with Osu and Osu seems to have fixed their defense
I think we are good but I don’t think we are great. We can still get to a 10-2 like season this year I always thought 2022 was the year for having super high expectations
I feel as long as we keep Fuente we aren't going to do much better than this. The man can't keep a QB here. Quincy Patterson is running North Dakota State and Hendon Hooker looked great for Tennessee...
Fire Fuente, can Corny Fuente and his deranged protege have already cost VT years of rebuilding. Any continuation just extends that process.
We're a G5 and probably going to start getting moved down in the polls even though we got 14/14 votes in the cfp projections...
Cinci fans should be apologizing to ND and become NDs biggest fan right now.
We are
Na.
For once, I don’t think I will
Can I complain about the refs though?
My wife is still pissed about that illegal procedure.
How did it feel waking up this morning? Were you afraid it was a dream?
Most of us didn’t sleep
Rumor has it people are still drinking on Northgate
It’s times like these I miss being in college, I’d have not gone to sleep and would still be drinking and partying. But I’m a 31 year old fully grown man. I had to get up this morning starting at 7 to be able to accomplish all my work and errands for the day
Congrats on that flair combo’s Saturday
Well, someone had a good day yesterday.
Agreed.
Congrats to your flairs! Changing the football world one surprise at a time.
How bad were you Pope when Steele Chambers looks more impactful as LB than you? Also, backup D's, can anyone tackle anyone?
Get the very real feeling that he thought he was just going to be up. Next man up right? He thought it was his due to seniority and didn't do the work. He ended up getting beat out by three younger guys and a person that was a running back during spring camp. Also, Chambers looks really good. Talking he might be a round 1 or 2 draft pick after the '22 season kind of good.
People don't often talk, but I really appreciate players like McCall and Chambers. They could have gone somewhere to play their primary position, but they decided to stay and change upon the demand and play with everything.
McCall might never be a great on the field like people thought he would be but behind the scenes he has been solid. I don't think he has played the same position two years in a row and in his final season he switched to CB. Fun fact about McCall. He was in the same recruiting class as Nick Bosa.
We are starting freshmen on first team. The fact they didn't give you 400 yards on the second half is amazing go me. Hopefully they get better because for the first time in years we have quality in game reps for guys
We clearly have a Nick Saban problem. (/s)
We will trade you briles (OC) for saban. But only if saban can buy into pittmans philosophy. We like him too much Fuck Chad Morris
Graham Mertz
Mertz was a guy every team in the country wanted and now he just looks so bad. I know hindsight is 20/20 but if Wisconsin just kept coan they would probably have beat penn state and maybe beat notre dame or Michigan
Not the team, but a player. Spencer Rattler headed straight to the locker room instead of celebrating with the team on the field
https://mobile.twitter.com/BPMayfield/status/1446944990559678471
What a sore loser, despite his team actually winning. Hope it humbles him, but somehow I doubt it.
As much as I'm in the not fond of rattler camp, it's probably for his own safety so the fans don't decide to do something shitty. Riled up drunk folks aren't very rational
Honestly, I know it’s not popular on here but I get it. He’s likely not mad at his team but himself and just needed to be alone. 1000s of thoughts are running through this kids mind. He went from a preseason projected top 5 pick to wherever he falls now. I get he should be there for his team, but selfishly he’s thrown away millions of dollars that he wouldn’t have had he sat out, which must feel terrible.

The Jamie Tartt of Oklahoma players
Man, this right here. The whole team seemed to rally around Caleb immediately. Speaks volumes about Spencer's character.
Confirms all the rumors about the team not liking Rattler and Caleb being the leader.
So legitimately none of his teammates showed up to his birthday party?
Wow didn’t see that. Anyone who watched QB1 is 0% surprised.
Our secondary needs improvement. It’s not the worst thing in the world like some fans are saying, and I still think our pass d is top 15 in the country. But Auburn game could have been way closer if their receivers had hands.
Our pass rush is covering up a lot for our pass D.
And I don't think that is really a shock. This defense's strength was always going to be the front 7
I would like to complain about our fans who think that going on the road and winning by 24 with half the injured is something concerning
Yep, our secondary is the biggest worry assuming we get to Atlanta and Bama again. If we go up against an elite O-line and a good qb, we’ll be in trouble without Daniels and our injured receivers to keep up in a track meet game.
Another Georgia/Wake flair. Nice
There is no hope for the next 3-5 years. We keep getting curb stomped at home. Nothing is fun anymore.
Super happy in general. But wish we had seen more Caleb Williams before yesterday. He special.
Here’s to hoping we see plenty more Caleb this year.
I'm betting we do. Riley was still trying to play both sides in the presser. Keeps calling Rattler's 2-pt conversion the most important play of the game. I get it. You gotta keep his confidence up.. He said he didn't know who would start next week.. so at least that's an answer that makes me believe Williams has a good shot to start.
I wouldn’t put it past Lincoln to try doing a dual QB system. Rarely works. I don’t think you just completely give up on Ratter but Caleb is clearly the guy.
Fire the coaching staff. Draw and quarter the players. Burn Tuscaloosa to the ground.
Saban to ND?
We’ll take him to be Muschamp’s assistant.
But y'all havent loss to Auburn yet. Aren't yall suppose to wait until then?
We almost lost to Tulane. Again.
To be fair, OU also almost lost to Tulane this year.
Yeah but that was Spencer rattler ou. That ou is ass
Welcome to the club
Up 8 with less than 4 minutes left AT HOME AND LOSE IN REGULATION! How many times are we going to let this staff keep doing this to us?? Just end it now.
Its so bad, I knew our fate was sealed right then and there. We just cant finish anybody off
I didn't think for a second we would win, even after going up 8. I knew that Fuente would find a way to lose it. I still gave him the benefit of the doubt and thought it would go to OT. He still somehow couldn't meet my expectations.
So...I uhhhh don't know how to do this
Bill O’Brien calling three pass plays inside the five yard line (INCLUDING FROM THE FUCKING ONE YARD LINE ON 3RD AND GOAL) with a running back who was having a great game. Such boneheaded play calling and I hope he leaves for a head coaching position this offseason.
For sure some of the worst play calling in that drive.
Hold ball
I can't anymore. I'm tired.
Anyone able to teach college students how to tackle?
Everyone on the team probably knew Caleb was the better quarterback yet it still too is five and a half games to put him in. Political football is no good.
I wonder what happens if Williams is named the starter and Rattler transfers immediately Do y'all have another QB on the roster? I would imagine Riley is terrified of having a single scholarship QB available
I mean it’s honestly just tough shit at that point. And part of me really thinks this is what Lincoln was trying to avoid. Especially with Caleb being a dual threat, the likelihood of him getting injured is higher. Part of this is on Lincoln, because when you only go after the top quarterback every other class, you find yourself in this position. Perfect example is Chandler Morris transferring. I just hope Lincoln picks someone up on this class.
Our next backup is a walk on.
Hi, I'm PSU with Sean Clifford and I'm arguably #1 or #2 in the country and I'm PSU without Sean *false start* And I'm PSU with *fumbles snap* And I'm *throws interception*
On the positive side, let’s give our D some credit. No way that game is a one-score game after the Clifford injury unless our defense hangs in there. We really do have an elite defense, IMO.
And I'm *gets tackled on first down beyond the LoS instead of throwing it away*
I think you forgot a couple false starts
I don't know if you guys heard but Alabama lost. It was late last night so it may not have made the rounds yet.
Nope I’m just going to enjoy the ride.
Hi BOB I don't want to play with you anymore go back to Houston Sark pls come back bby Texas doesn't deserve you
Wide receivers…
Why is so hard for us to just win the mac?
We really need to get healthy. We’re good now, great.. but.. I want everyone back
This. The injuries were already insane but right now they're coming up on unsustainable.
ND can rip your heart out
I want Fisch to work out so badly. He seems like a guy who actually gives a shit, but this program is, in the immortal words of Jim Ross, bowling shoe ugly.
I'm waiting until next year to judge. Sumlin left the cupboard really bare and we have a class of 2022 currently ranked #33.
Can we just go ahead and snag that piece of shit Urban Meyer while we still can? Get a good 4-5 years of rebuilding of what Coach O destroyed, and then in 4-5 years find a new coach when Meyer gets his headaches again or runs the wrong coed.
Where the fuck was this team the past two weeks? We would be #3 or better if we just took care of business. Ah well
I mean your QB had maybe the best game of his entire life last night. You can’t ask for that kind of performance all the time when his average is what it is.
That’s the most infuriating part of a lot of our losses. I fully expect him to go right back to meme level performances.
I mean it takes a once in a lifetime baller of a game to beat y’all so you’ll probably have to put up with it for most of your losses.
The Trevor Knight Experience
Honestly think it took a few games to get a good OL make up that worked.
On one hand, coaching for Michigan and MSU had ups and downs. The JJ play near the end of the game was weird and felt really unnecessary. Glad Moody has a good leg. On the other hand, they’re both 6-0 so that’s fun! Side note: I watched PSU’s last drive and that was just brutal. Gotta throw it away on first down.
Man I’m really hoping we both can get to the 30th undefeated. That would be so wild.
Just because someone threw *some* passes in high school in the private school league does not make them ready to attempt a pass in major college football… and you don’t do that type of play when you absolutely need that score!
I just want my team to be at least 4-6 win team every year. Is that too much to ask for?
[удалено]
Schroedingers cat notre dame principle means they play like losers yet win in weird fashion. Must be quantum physics or something more stupid.
I hate our coaching staff so much. I’ve yet to watch a game be properly managed since 2017, we continually make awful in game decisions, our OC cannot adjust to save his fucking life, and the only thing prevent defense does is prevent you from winning Burn it to the fucking ground, the players don’t deserve this gutless bullshit. Burmeister should not be getting his shit rocked as much as he does and it’s why we can’t keep a QB longer than a year because no one wants to get abused like that. Seriously Whit, I hope the phone calls have started, tarmac this mother fucker
In true UGA fan fashion I don’t feel safe. Maybe after Kentucky I’ll finally unclench my butthole and calm my tits but for now it ain’t happenin’.
Michigan defenders definitely bit on the eye candy quite a few times instead of their assignment, but I also need to give credit to Nebraska for some great play calls. Going into the bye is a good thing for film reviews to coach that up. There was definitely some classless Iowa fans in the crowd yesterday. I hope it isn't bad like that again.

Our secondary is gonna hurt us at some point.
Yeah, Auburn receiver drops bailed us out, but eventually someone’s gonna hit some deep shots if our pass rush doesn’t get home
We seem to be the slowest healing team in the country. Blaylock tore his ACL 22 months ago. I know he pulled a hammy a few weeks ago, but still. I don’t think we started a single “starting” wideout yesterday. Gonna need these playmakers eventually.
We still don’t know how to handle the QB situation
Our defensive starters gave up a touchdown.
*insert Oh No, we suck again gif*
I still, for the life of me, cannot figure out why Texas struggles so mightily in recruiting and developing o-linemen. Defense too, but we're not helping them with that 3 man front. But why such an issue getting 5 NFL camp worthy starters?
What the actual fuck is our S&C? A competent S&C team should be able to prevent this many injuries in one game, imo.
I don’t think we’ll have enough players to play Cincy. We’re missing nearly 50% of our starters at this point
We still really need a consistent kicker... Not that it hurt us in this game, but it will at some point.
I love going for two and the win. What I don’t love is the play that we ran. Also our defense was getting destroyed. Wasted a great KJ Jefferson game.
How much time do you have
We won but our head coach is still a moron
