Well, SEC play begins this weekend but, with Arkansas being as putrid as they are, I think the game plan remains as it was over the first 2 games, get the starters some live reps, get up big early, get some bench players some game experience and everyone walk out healthy.

Go Dawgs!

Good morning! Welllll, let’s see… Texas did indeed pull it off last week. I knew whichever team won, that their fanbase would become insufferable. What’s worse? Insufferable assholes at an Ohio State or Lawn Corn assholes in Texas?

Then there’s that game tonight…

The number of people, in the comments, swallowing this hook, line & sinker is…. concerning.

Ranked matchups of ranked teams this week include #16 SMU @ #23 Louisville and the aforementioned #7 LSU @ #8 Ole Miss. this week’s meteor game. Mercer, we’re all rooting for you, go be great. Reckon how many seconds will be left on the clock at the end of the Michigan/UTEP game? Western Kentucky, we’re all rooting for you, go be great. Does Auburn/Florida have any luster to it at all? Neither ranked, yet they get a night game while the #2 team in the country plays at noon (technically 11am). Nebraska favored by 25.5 over North Dakota? Hell, an upset here wouldn’t surprise me. Kennesaw State, we’re all rooting for you, go be great.

I don’t think any coach’s seat really got any warmer last weekend? Anyone that may be in danger of bricks through the window this week?

If you sit up and watch all of the Fresno State/San Jose State game…

Week 3 kicks off in 2 hours. This post is open for your comments throughout today’s games.

Go Dawgs!

Chopped pork for lunch – Arkansas preview

It’s only 2 weeks into the season, and Arkansas fans are acting like Saints’ fans from the 80s. They are calling for boycotts, paper bags (no way would I wear one in what the weather is going to be like tomorrow), and black outs. I do wonder if the Arkansas coaching staff is channeling an “it’s us against the world (including our own fans)” mentality as the 2nd ranked Dawgs come to Fayetteville in the SEC opener for both teams. Let’s get to the preview.

When Georgia has the ball

Given Arkansas’s trouble with the Utah passing game last Saturday night, today may be a great time for the Georgia passing game to get unleashed. While the Arkansas run defense was serviceable, the Utes still had 4 rushing TDs last week. I expect the Dawgs to generate yards and points. I would love to see Jaden Reddell get turned loose later today. It won’t be like the last 2 games, but anything below the mid 30s is probably a disappointment.

When Arkansas has the ball

As mentioned in the first look, Arkansas has had trouble generating any kind of running game. I expect Silverfield to run KJ Jackson and play 11 on 11. Both quarterbacks struggled in the passing game. Utah rang up 4 sacks on Saturday night, and I expect to see Georgia open up the defensive playbook a little to get pressure. Zayden Walker didn’t play much last Saturday, but this could be his kind of game.

What will happen

No turnovers. No sleepwalking. No playing with your food. If the Dawgs show up ready to play, I expect the Dawgs to win and win easily. I don’t think Arkansas is going to be able to do much against the Georgia defense. Therefore, field position should tilt against the Razorbacks for most of the day.

Dawgs win, but can they cover a big spread on the road? Dawgs take care of business and get ready for the Sooners’ visit to Athens.

Final Score: Georgia 35, Arkansas 13

What a Bargain

Honestly, they’re probably one step away from paying you to come to the game in Fayetteville today.

Nine dollars. Mind you, after the processing and fees, that’s probably twenty dollars, but if you’d told me I could get in to an SEC venue cheaper than a Georgia Tech game, I’d offer up the two hot dogs and two cokes to you as part of the deal.

If you happen to be in the area, it’s likely you can just walk in to the place.

I’m Not Paying for the Crab Legs

What was old is inevitably new again. Especially at Florida State.

Interesting. Why, though? Well, like all things college football today…it’s money.

Norvell remains unlikely to be fired if the Seminoles lose that game, but if the scoreline is ugly enough, it could lead to an immediate change. If that were to happen, the nearly $50 million he would be owed in a buyout would strap FSU financially in its coaching search, and that could give Fisher the upper hand.

Fisher was fired from Texas A&M in 2023 and became the recipient of the largest buyout in college football history, $77.6 million. So Fisher could take a cut-rate salary to lessen the stress on the program and offer an immediate arrival.

Hey, he’s already rich…so it won’t really cost nothing, will it?

Never mind Fisher couldn’t accomplish anything with what was assuredly some of the highest paid rosters out there with a stacked blue chip class of players (who ultimately never panned out)…but he’s affordable!

There’s a reason Florida State hasn’t been relevant since the 63-3 drubbing by Georgia, and it’s not all because Georgia killed their will.

Good luck with that, Seminoles. When you have Publix tastes on an Aldi budget, sometimes you have to look for a steal.

Bring back Jameis while you’re at it.

Reminder: It Could Always Be Much, Much Worse

Jebus, just click on this and read through the replies.Esepcially ones like this.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a team’s fanbase yearning so deeply for us to come in and whip their own team’s ass.

Gotta admit, I feel for the Arkansas team players, it’s gotta be something knowing that literally everyone there is rooting against you…and you’re at home.

ROI Don’t Know

This is an interesting graphic.

Color me surprised that Auburn and South Carolina are spending more than Georgia and have nothing at all to show for it, except a new coach and one who could be on his way out.

Ditto for Nebraska, Michigan, and USC. What’s lost here is the individual payouts, where I’d imagine Kirby takes a more balanced approach to spread the wealth while a team like Michigan invested heavily in a QB that has people wondering why they did that.

And then there’s Oregon, Texas and tOSU. Top of the list yet no titles for two of them and Ohio State seemingly lucked into theirs and still can’t buy a decent kicker.

Indiana is lower than eleven teams that has a combined single national title, and one (LSU) that hasn’t even made the expanded CFP. Tennessee has made it once, getting hammered by the Suckeyes 42-9 and didn’t make it in last year at all.

And while Dabo preaches that he doesn’t like transfers, he is investing a lot of money into something…but what it is is beyond me. From another vantage point, consider this:

Which team is most surprising to you, and why?
