Game Thread: Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl: Ole Miss vs Penn St (Ole Miss wins 38-25)

[CoolBreeze]

What Ole Miss is doing here makes me think we should try quick tempo vs. Michigan.

State Penn was totally unprepared for this snap speed. Got players down all over the carpet.

He was not ready to win championships while at Alabama, and still is not there, but who knows about the future.

The 2020 offensive juggernaut should get the lion’s share of credit. Pete’s D gave up 48 to Ole Miss and 46 to UF in the SEC title game.

These announcers..... the first couple of drives they were saying how Pedo defense was killing the oline and they were the best in the country and Dart may not finish the game.
Now they're telling us how many players opted out after every play.

I noticed that little change in tone too.

I’ve always thought James Franklin was one of the most overrated coaches in the country. Today’s game is doing nothing to change that opinion.

Yeah. The two advantages Ole Miss has in this game are the better QB and the fact that Kiffin is so much better than Franklin with X's and O's.

Golding strikes again.

Are you watching the Maryland game?

Saw it. What’s your point? Have you seen AU’s recruiting under Harsin? I never said that the B1G sucked or didn’t have any speed etc. never said that they can’t beat the SEC. Usually tOSU is the only team that matches that SEC style speed on their roster top to bottom. They practice against elite talent everyday which is why I think they are competitive in the CFP. They just needed a QB this year. I still don’t understand why Day continues to play Michigan’s game each year.

No BB game thread today so FYI: Bama 52 Liberty 32 early 2nd half. Defense looks much better today.

PSU tries a FG down by 14 with 11 minutes to play. Blocked.

That Preiskorn dude has magnet hands.

Announcer just said Ole Miss is getting ready to make a run at a national title next year…

Just call the game, dude. Do drugs on your own time.

 

[colbysullivan]

We held this team to 3 points in the 2nd half. Make of that what you will.

I caught the last 1 minute of Gameday waiting for this game. Rece said something similar. He said ole miss will be preseason top 5 in 2024

Pretty much everyone coming back. But they will still have Golding.

 

[CoolBreeze]

That Kiffin fist pump is eerily familiar to a former auby coach...with the visor too.

With their (relatively) easy SEC schedule combined with what they have returning and the NIL-heavy portal this off-season, 2024 has the potential to be a very good year in Oxford. Remember, THIS OM team only dropped two games, to Bama and UGA.

Looking at who they are bringing back, who they hauled in with the portal, and their schedule it really doesn’t require much of a leap to think they are a top 7 team entering the season.

That's a nose spewer, glad I'm not at the bar. Hilarious dude!

The SEC will have Alabama, Georgia, Texas and Ole Miss in the top 7 to start the season next year. Crazy.

 

[colbysullivan]

There’s a world of difference in “being a top 5 preseason team” and “winning the national championship”. Gol*ing will still (presumably) be their DC.
