Game Thread: Sugar Bowl (ND vs UGA) (ESPN | Jan 2 at 3pm CST)

[GrayTide]

Based on what I have seen so far, it looks like tOSU will beat Texas. Notre Dame should beat PSU. I also think Notre Dame will give tOSU all it wants, but tOSU has the best combination of offense and defense in college football and the best talent. I hope next year's selection process will have better teams and better games.

Its ironic B10 fans are pounding their chests when they've basically used NIL/the portal to get SEC players....imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

Right. Outside of their star receivers, which I'm always jealous about, Downs is probably their best player.

And Sayin will probably start there soon.

Yep, the "EAST" as it was previously known, was a Georgia peach for Kirby.

Anytime UGA loses a game, its the refs.................they claimed the refs helped us, and they are claiming the refs helped ND. I showed pics to a UGA fan of their dbs riding the backs of Bama receivers in the NC game, but the refs still helped Bama

they wouldn't have made it to overtime with georgia tech had the officials called the game anywhere close to even

No, and they laugh about the refs helping them............but let a call go against them and they raise cane

I have no sympathy for the dogs...none...zero...nada.

Just heard on Talking Ball that ND won $14M bowl money for their conference ... which is ND.

That guy is going to have to go into hiding. Witness Protection, or witless protection, as it were.

I would have sympathy for him, but he chose to attend the University of Georgia. 🤷‍♂️

Lanning thought he had too much of a hotbed to stoop to taking the Alabama job, when in fact if he had, he would have had a roster better matched with OSU. I know they won earlier in the season, but I contend that Oregon’s style of play is never going to win when it counts the most.

Funny. Miami “stole” Cristobal from Oregon…a very good recruiter but an awful in game coach. And Oregon replaced him with? A very good recruiter but terrible in game coach.

Granted that some of Lanning’s issue could be related to lack of head coaching experience. But I enjoyed seeing him getting a great big piece of humble pie on Wednesday.

@92tide and @DzynKingRTR have to be going through this am like....

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

Hopefully, but this bunch will not be humbled by this at all.

Which makes it even better...

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

With Beck they win. But they had a QB who was just not ready.

That's on the HC.

Bowl-cut should have played Stockton more in mop-up duty rather than pad Beck's stats...

SEC teams have taken players from all over the country, too. It is what it is.

Agreed, but he learned from Saban.
