SEC Championship Open Thread: it just means more
December 1st, 2018 at 5:18 PM ^
Isiah wilson. Ugh.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:37 PM ^
He looks pretty damn good out there at RT...stone-walling those AL DLs. Georgia sure likes running behind him.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:20 PM ^
My wife asked what was wrong as I’m moody today. I’m salty AF that we aren’t playing today and I’m even more pissed because these pricks are blatant cheaters and that is what it will take. I’m just salty.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:20 PM ^
Fuck the SEC if they get 2 teams into the playoff again this year
December 1st, 2018 at 5:27 PM ^
This is exactly why there is no point in playing anyone with a pulse in the non-conference. The SEC plays no one and they still get two teams in. Alabama is awesome but their resume sucks. They beat LSU and pretty much no one else of substance. If the panel really wanted to send a message they would leave them out.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:00 PM ^
We need to drop ND right now. They offer no upside.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:06 PM ^
If we would have won last week, this board would be losing their bleeping mind over the thought of getting left out when we went on the road and lost by a TD in the first game of the year. If Alabama loses, that is exactly what would have happened. If the result holds this a great argument to expand to 8. You have the potential for two 12-1 conference champs to be left out in the cold.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:32 PM ^
Is that you, Dave Brandon?
December 1st, 2018 at 5:21 PM ^
Wow. Bama is taking an absolute drubbing so far. It's early, but...
December 1st, 2018 at 5:21 PM ^
If Georgia wins big Bama should be out. This is their playoff game.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:21 PM ^
Georgia ‘s offense es en fuego
December 1st, 2018 at 5:22 PM ^
well, this is interesting
December 1st, 2018 at 5:22 PM ^
I want Georgia to win so the committee takes two SEC teams and we finally get a 6 or 8 team playoff.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:24 PM ^
But . . . but . . . Greatest Team Of All Time!!
December 1st, 2018 at 6:22 PM ^
Like the ‘83 Cornhuskers and 2007 Patriots
December 1st, 2018 at 5:25 PM ^
Welcome to the $EC, where the bagman not only means more, he means EVERYTHING!
December 1st, 2018 at 5:29 PM ^
That should be a TD Alabama. He clearly had it back in his hands before being knocked out again.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:30 PM ^
That was a TD ? I can't tell
December 1st, 2018 at 5:30 PM ^
Super slo-mo replay is so misleading. He held that ball for 1/10 of a second; in real time that does NOT look like possession.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:00 PM ^
I agree, the call on the field should have stood. How many times do you see players grab the ball on a fumble recovery and it slips out? A lot. Players jump on it and have it squirt out from underneath. I’m sure in all of those cases you could slow it down and find one frame in which it looks like the guy had his hands on the ball. But that’s just stupid, and most of the time they don’t do that. It’s ironic because when it comes to receiving, especially in the NFL, you have to hold onto the ball until the play is over in order for it to count. But for a fumble recovery, you only have to have it in your hands for a tenth of a second? What?
December 1st, 2018 at 5:30 PM ^
Bama avoided a catastrophic turnover there
December 1st, 2018 at 5:35 PM ^
If Georgia wins this game it likely means Alabama and Georgia will go to the playoffs. This means Michigan is most likely headed to the Fiesta Bowl vs Boise State / Fresno winner. Peach would be Penn State vs LSU.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:40 PM ^
Thanks Joe Lunardi.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:51 PM ^
That would be cool.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:15 PM ^
If Alabama loses they need to stay home. If you don't win your conference you shouldn't be there.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:57 PM ^
I won't argue against that. I just don't think they will get left home if they lose close.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:35 PM ^
I just looked at the stats for this game Tua is 3 of 10 and has a pick. Does he get the belt tonight ?
December 1st, 2018 at 5:36 PM ^
What the hell is Bama doing?
December 1st, 2018 at 5:40 PM ^
Keeping aO$U in pasadena.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:37 PM ^
There was a crossing route and the WR didn’t have green grass in front of him. I’m confused.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:37 PM ^
Georgia looking like a world beater
December 1st, 2018 at 5:40 PM ^
Watching this game and seeing all the players that we could have had. Harris, Nauta, Wilson, leatherwood,Hardman, Holyfield.N. Harris. Hardman. Just think if we had just a few. We need a breakaway back. Higdon was good but lacks the speed of a big time back.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:42 PM ^
I'd like to have an experienced RB coach (Mike Hart hello?)
December 1st, 2018 at 5:46 PM ^
Hart isn’t coming here and the RBs were fine.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:43 PM ^
Harbaugh wouldn't have properly used any of them.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:47 PM ^
You’re. He has a history of not using back’s properly. Toby Gerhart, Frank Gore... those guys suck.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:51 PM ^
Higdon did a great job for us this season. Though he just didn't have the speed to do some of the things those Maryland running backs did to that OSU defense.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:59 PM ^
Yeah because Higdon is to blame for our defense shitting it’s collective pants against OSU.
Higdon was not even remotely the problem this year. Get a great OL and you can have RBs that play like All Americans regardless of their recruiting star rankings.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:26 PM ^
WE haven’t had a championship offensive line in almost 14 years. That is one thing I am most disappointed in with Harbaugh. I thought for sure when we hired him we would have a great o-line quickly.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:51 PM ^
Gary Danielson on Fromm having to take an actual test in school: "If I was his professor, I would just give him an A."
Of course you would.
The most SEC thing ever.
December 1st, 2018 at 5:58 PM ^
This UCF / Memphis game is gonna be a barn burner it looks like
December 1st, 2018 at 5:59 PM ^
Don't often agree with Nueheisel but when he says the committee will have a hard time finding 3 better teams than the 2 on the field, have to agree. Both teams athletic. Fromm is impressive today. Alabama not playing very smart but they do look to be loaded with physical athletic talent.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:16 PM ^
And they schedule cupcakes.
December 1st, 2018 at 6:05 PM ^
Why do Michigan’s teams of the early 1900s always get ignored?
Announcer: Alabama is the first team to win every game by 20 points or more since 1888 when Yale did it.
Ummm, Michigan 1901?
December 1st, 2018 at 6:19 PM ^
Because ESS EEE SEE!!!
December 1st, 2018 at 6:12 PM ^
This is how I thought we could play Alabama....before last week
December 1st, 2018 at 6:17 PM ^
C’mon Georgia pour it on
December 1st, 2018 at 6:18 PM ^
wow that was quite the throw
December 1st, 2018 at 6:19 PM ^
and this is a Georgia team playing freshmen on the OL...
December 1st, 2018 at 6:22 PM ^
Please stop you're making my butt hurt again :(
