Maria Taylor is gorgeous!

Meanwhile, Georgia back in this. Some awful tackling efforts there - but I'll take it...

Maria Taylor is awesome. She's pretty funny too.

Big momentum shift here.

Tied up now, start of 4th Q.

Terrible throw!

They are shook!

This game turned out alright.

It's been wild!

Wow! Crazy game.

Fark!

link?

Georgia just tied it up 45-45 1 min left.

One of the games of the year, playoff or not.

Mad, mad game!

OT!

Ouch. That drop from Nauta could be costly.

Game saving tackle by Roquan Smith. What a contest.

Dawgs will play for their first title since 1980. In ATL.

Thank God for that!

Great farking game!

Freshman Fromm out-duels the Heisman winner. Been high on this kid since his first game.

That's the guy that Mock Drafts have going to the Raiders.

Although that was before Jack Del Rio got sacked, Jon Gruden may want a shiny new toy on offense.

Why Atlanta is the capital of college football: http://www.espn.com/college-football/st ... me-atlanta

The Ohio State Alumni Club of Atlanta regularly draws 150 people to the Hudson Grille in Sandy Springs, an Atlanta suburb. Four times that many Buckeyes have gathered to watch the Ohio State-Michigan game, according to club president Shawn Murnahan, an attorney for the SEC (no, not that one; the Securities and Exchange Commission).

"The manager here said to me, 'Y'all are the reason I got a bonus last year,'" Murnahan said.

I spent a Christmas down in Athens about a decade or so ago. My friends were telling me how REM bought up swathes of downtown to stop investors from knocking down older buildings and putting up apartments etc. ruining the charm of the town. I went to their stadium as well when I was there.

So while I generally support the Big 10 teams (Wolverines - due to work and Wildcats - due to where I lived), my only SEC team I follow are the Bulldogs. I really don't like Sabin and Bama.

I have a cousin who's a UGA grad and another attending Bama. Needless to say they won't be watching the game together. I don't like Bama either.

Surely nobody does. Even the pricks that go there must only support them coz they have to.

The OK/GEO game was one of the best I've seen. f**king enjoyable. Pity Clemson couldn't finish the day off for me.

Bones, I'm with you on the Darnald and Rosen draft thing. They are shit in my opinion too. Darnald was atrocious in the Bowl game. Lamar Jackson is really talented but I'm not 100% convinced his skills will translate. A lot will depend on his ability to adapt, like Watson and Mariota have. I'd take him 10 positions above the Manziels/Tebow types above.

Hope the Dawgs win by 1,00000000.

Look at this. A Bama hater indeed!

Bleacher report mock draft reckons six quarterbacks in the first round. Would have potential for a record number of busts I reckon.

Yeah LJ is on another planet compared to Manziel who was small and entitled. I think a lot will depend on where he ends up. If he can sit for a year or two he will be in much better shape than if he's expected to start right away.

Apparently Manziel is eyeing a CFL comeback though so keep an eye out.

I woke the dead when OSU beat them in 2015. Never been so happy after a win.

Mine was that Chris Davis return in the Iron Bowl. Sabin's face walking up to shake hands with the opposition coach was just wonderful!

As long as he doesn't sign for BC, don't care. Useless is useless - anywhere.

That Iron Bowl return for TD was priceless. They have a map of the runback in the stadium.

Anyone drafting Lamar Jackson to play as a conventional, pro style NFL QB should be fired.

If someone wants to roll the dice and create a completely new offense for him then he might have a shot. But the guy is not a natural passer and his numbers reflect that. He is an unbelievable athlete though and runner. Manziel was a much better passer than him in college and the majority of his problems have been off the field which never gave him a shot at making anything of himself.


I have been off on Sam Darnold all year too. I watched them against Cal and he should have thrown 5 picks. The bowl game was just an extension of his entire season. But he looks like an NFL QB and someone will take the plunge pretty early on him based on that and last years tape. Plus his OL this year has been terrible tbf.

There's a certain buzz that the new Browns GM (Dorsey?) fancies a "Josh" with the #1 pick.
But it's Josh Allen - they see him as very much like the Carson Wentz that they whiffed on two years ago.



Also, Carson Palmer has just retired so add the Cardinals to the great 2018 draft crapshoot.

Is that the Potato Bowl kid?

Look the last guy to be Wentz was Flacco. Guys getting to the NFL from a non-FSB school are rare and don't happen often.

LJ may work if he is a system that gives him a 3-4 seconds and run routes. Honestly he needs to be the 3rd stringer on a team, with an established 1 and mentor as QB 2 and learn in the position. Like say a NE, Miami or Minnesota even. Just somewhere he will learn to be a QB.

Jimmy G went to Eastern Illinois. Big school QBs flop more than small school guys do. Especially the 4 and 5 star recruits out of high school types.

Don't disagree, except for 3rd string part. I have a thought in my head that he would be good in Detroit behind Stafford, who has a good few years in him to teach the guy, but he is going to get game time at various times in the season. Detroit know they have to find a run game to compete, and that is what would help LJ. They can all grow at the same time.

Now excuse me while I field all of these GM offers coming my way.

Tickets to the title game are going for like $3-4k.

Where are you flying into? Quick itinerary would be Ann Arbor-Columbus-Morgantown-Blacksburg-Knoxville-Athens. Once you leave Ohio there would be a ton of mountains, whitewater etc to check out. You could always skip Morgantown and go to Happy Valley instead, then hit Gettysburg. Would add a lot of drive time but maybe worth it.

A smaller school along the way would be Appalachian State in western NC. Very pretty area.

I would love to go to Beaver Stadium and watch Penn State. 110,000 people wearing white. Looks flippin' cool on TV.

Wyoming plays in the Mountain West. They're an FBS school playing the same level of competition that Derek Carr, Ben Roethlisberger, Case Keenum, Alex Smith and Andy Dalton faced in college.

So Fulton County (Atlanta) schools are closed today. Ostensibly for icy roads but it's close to 40 degrees so I don't think so. People hawking UGA and Tide gear all up and down the roads in the city. This is a college football town, no doubt about it.

So happy with my two team's success this season. UCF with their unbeaten season and UGA playing for the the title tonight.
