I got pretty down early in the year, but it turns out Lagway probably is the real deal, Billy has coached much less stupid as the year has gone on, and the players stayed bought-in.
Win at least one of these last two, preferably both LOL, and we’re on track to meet pre-season “best realistic case scenario.”
Not paying real close attention to the playoff race this year, but I assume knocking off Ole Miss gives Mopac UT more paths to get in, and if so then happy to help, LOL.
Go Gators. I wonders what Ole Miss’s run D numbers look like without all those sack yards? They’ve seemed good but not particularly special against the run today.
I feel like announcers, always lean on aged conventional wisdom for things like, “Is it time to start milking clock?”
If there’s a pretty good chance that you, with a one score lead, are not going to make it a two score lead, there’s no particular reason to worry about the clock with five or six minutes left. You may very well need to have a possession after the other team gets one.
I want maximum chaos. All underdogs or worse-ranked teams must win today.
To be clear, I went to a D3 school with no football team, and I don’t have any money on the games, so I don’t have a personal interest in any of the games. I just support #TeamChaos.
Glad we weren't looking ahead to a&m, but not thrilled Ewers got a little banged up. I hope he can get back to 100% next week because we need everything we got
This is becoming a bloodbath. I'm torn: on one hand a&m losing is always fun but on the other we really need them to be perceived as a strong opponent for our resume
In a weird way the transfer portal and NIL probably help the service academies. Teamwork is still a huge part of the game and the constant transfers hurt that. The lesser teams also lose their better players after a season or two to the bigger programs, which makes up the majority of Army's schedule.
I haven't been able to catch any of this because every time I try to tune in it's in an ad break (because ou probably just scored again, somehow). I feel similarly about this as with the aggy game -- I don't want the land thieves to pick up a signature win but on the other hand it helps our SOS...

Can I cordially invite any Gators to join us at: https://fanaticus.social/c/floridagators

Subbed. Also, make sure you stick around here. Fun crew, even if most of them have questionable taste in football teams.

Florida: In victory formation for a major SEC win.
ESPN: Screw that, let's zoom in and show Dart crying instead!
What a dick move!

Well.
JacksonJaxson Dart must have money on the Gators. What a terrible decision.ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social · 3 pts · 1y
LOL, he almost did it twice (although the actual turnover was way worse a throw than the near-pick)
Edit: It's even funnier the third time!
wjrii@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y
Spoke too soon. I suddenly love Jaxson Dart.

Into the half tied at 14. Can’t complain.
wjrii@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
Oof. Just a pretty throw from Dart to answer the Gators’ score.

other than the UTEP - UT game I support this.
If IU doesn't beat anOSU they'd better drop out of the top 15, Penn State didn't for some reason...

Kentucky @ ^3^ Texas
Let's just get a win today. Not interested in any of that chaos stuff (with regards to my team)
g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
Kentucky has the ability to be good, they may be past that point this year tho

Chaos looking good in this one. The turnaround KU has had this season is quite frankly stunning

Really hope this one lives up to the hype of being a thriller for longer than what happened in Columbus earlier today
ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social · 1 pts · 1y
Okay, so it's gonna be just like the ND-Navy game. I'mma head out of this one - hopefully one of the other prime time games keeps things interesting

^7^ Indiana @ ^2^ an Ohio State University
I'm setting the o/u on Gus Johnson saying "World Famous Ohio State Buckeyes" at 15. He's already got one in and the game hasn't even kicked off yet...

Wisconsin @ NU. Meltdown in the final quarter by the team in red and white.
Without looking, which team do you think is drawing penalties left and right?

I really hope Army can keep their undefeated streak alive. It's been a real pleasure to see a service school do so well in an age of NIL Deals.

Game going about how the Frogs' entire season has. They look solid and intermittently exciting but just missing a certain something.

Wtf happened in the last few minutes of the half here?
Was that a defensive 2 pt conversion?
