Said many times before: lack of leadership ability.

I'm confused as to what's complicated about 'Kirby still can't manage a QB room'.

There was one hint: Kirby has a history of mismanaging his QB room. It shouldn’t have been inconceivable that it could happen again.

Tired of reading what a basketball geek writes about football. Football isn’t basketball: the two games have distinctly different paradigms, patterns, rhythms and truths. Why can’t they find someone who has the slightest clue about the game of football to write it instead?

Overrated.

One-score game until final minutes against Florida's back-ups. QB needs to be tested for color-blindness. A win is a win ... but there have to be a lot of questions inside the building in Athens.

Head coach fired for blowout losses. Interim head coach will be ... the Defensive Coordinator. Really? Hey, ECU, this is why you are not 'the premier job' in football with 'unprecedented support'.

This is only actually news if Freeze *didn’t* respond by immediately throwing the players and/or assistant coaches under the bus.

Who's the next coach going to be?

No one is going to win a National Championship in Oxford any time in the next decade.

Texas plays four quarters and starts hot. Georgia hasnt put four solid quarters in a game since sometime last season. Georgia gets solidly beat.

The 'scared money'canard is wearing thin. A lot more goes into these decisions - with information you don't have - than 'always go for 2!'

It's 2024. See the blitz. Protect the blitz. Attack the blitz. Man beaters is Day 1 of install. Zone blitzes are 'magic': Missing A Guy In Coverage. Sometimes 'death by a thousand cuts' is preferable to giving a bunch of explosives. Yes, you have to mix things up, but 'Moar pressure!!!' isn't always the answer. The coaches might just actually know what they're doing ...

Say hello to the new Head Gator. It can't be done in Oxford.

Classy ...

You play to win the *entire* game, taking into account the existence of over-time, not just one snap. Going for 2 or on 4th every time because 'muh aggressive!'is stupid.

Takeaway 3 is a bad joke. You'd blast either decision equally if it was unsuccessful. The outcome doesn't dictate whether or not a decision is sound. Rule #1 is don't lose. That's not playing scared, that's understanding the reality that far more football games are lost by bad decisions and physical mistakes than are outright won by 'a gutsy call'. Take the % and extend the game. The other team is entirely capable of screwing up. Give them the chance.

Thank you. Outside of the context you described, it's a meaningless stat. Also, oftentimes the reason your opponent ends up .500 or less in conference is ... because you beat them. It's a zero-sum, and not very revealing. But let's be honest, it's just a go-to stat to put down teams that don't enjoy the advantages that the top tier has, and which the entire system was devised until extremely recently, to ensure they keep. It's lazy writing, disguised as analysis.

A 3-loss, non-conference champion team isn't getting in. Such a team, regardless of the sticker on their helmet, would be clearly undeserving.

On a neutral field? With 2924 Georgia unable to play 4 full quarters? Be honest, you haven't watched a full PSU game yet, have you? I'd expect t Georgia to be favored by 3ish, maybe 4.5, but 'pound into oblivion' is a bit silly.

Vandy can't even get a #25 ranking after manhandling #1 Mighty Bama?

*hoops

"I hope Saturday convinced you that college football has become college basketball." That you think this is a good thing speaks volumes. Everyone remembers their bracket. No one remembers how it ended. There is no such thing as a consequential regular season basketball game. In any other season yesterday would have been historic with season changing impact. Instead, the odds are that most - if not all - of those teams still make the bracket. They should not let Carolina hopes geeks write about football.

It took so much mojo for Vandy to beat #1 Bama that the it turned the whole CFB world upside down!

Been waiting a long, long, long, time for a night like this.

Like him or not, he's right. The current lack of structure is unsustainable. You guys wanted to pay the players. Ok, fine. But with that you're *inevitably* going to get: Salary caps Revenue sharing Tampering rules and penalties A players union The current 'Wild West' era is going to end. Furthermore, free transfer and NIL can't perpetually coexist. Coaches can't be expected to produce results when they don't know who's showing up week to week.

Newsflash for Klatt: winning a game is better than losing it. Joel seems to forget the epic beatdown that the first 18 minutes was. Somehow, it doesn't count or something because a talented (yet unprepared) Georgia team didn't just give up. Isn't 'not giving up' the expectation in football? 1 month into an expanded playoff - so we can 'determine it on the field!' - and we are already being told that the losing team is the better team. Smdh.

Likely need to be 10-2 to make the playoffs. When they beat Texas, Ole Miss and Tennessee (2 out of those 3 on the road), then we can have those conversation. The question is, if this was Georgia's best with an extra week to prepare, how realistic is that?

Please Google 'Are verbal agreements enforceable in a court of law' and then kindly stfu.

So you're saying the first 30 meant nothing? What caused the big 'L'? Lack of preparedness. After a bye week. Thats an undeniable sign of poor coaching. No one expected them to give up. I just think you'll be disappointed when he doesn't get a COY award for this performance. Hm ... CKS has never gotten an AFCA COY (the one voted on by the coaches), has he? Maybe I'm not the only one who thinks he's got some obvious weaknesses.
