  1. Galvan probably watched some Juan Soto in the off-season.
  2. I wouldn’t put some ethical considerations out of play here. The Pigs only chance to win conference is for us to lose more.
  3. Gotcha. I had not heard that phrase regarding Snows.
  4. But that’s probably cause you’re not young, strong, invincible, now are you? So if you are all those things, who needs a flu shot?
  5. I’m not completely certain how to take that but will do so in the purest sense. Yeah, 12 inches of brisket would be outstanding.
  6. Not to redirect but Snows sounds awfully good right now. Anyone hit it up today?
  7. This is one reason I like you. Ballsy. Not afraid to go against the grain. Yes. Throughout a season you’ll need the offense to win a handful of games. Auburn when not run ruling USC they won 11-10. And we are short on blowout wins and coasting too. I had a flu shot. Still got the flu so who knows.
  8. UF just won a Friday game with their starter going what was it 2 or 3 innings. There are alternatives. I’d put Ruger back as a game 3 starter next weekend. He’s likely worn down some so maybe a little extra rest would help. Thursday games have everyone off schedule anyway so it’s not like the traditional starter has typical rest anyway. Burns, Saunier, Bing, Flores all have starting experience. All have gotten outs. You can throw Grubbs anytime. Duplantier and Howard certainly can provide innings. We are a staff that can survive when a starter only goes 2-3 innings. The key is only giving 1-2 runs rather than 6 or 9. Id be hesitant to start Volantis because he’s not going 9 and not sure how long he’d go anyway. For a frosh, he’s pitched quite a few games so not sure he’d extend you beyond 5, maybe 6. Then you get to the 8th or 9th and have to determine do you go Burns or Grubbs. Until runs are scored, it won’t mean much anyway.
  9. Good call. Not sure that’ll be the call though.
  10. @HenryJames Tell the shithead home plate ump he’s useless on my behalf. UF is getting the outside strike, the inside strike, the high strike, the low strike. Been awhile since I’ve seen guys get all 4.
  11. You don’t Snow’s BBQ? What kind of man are you?
  12. No easy games in the SEC
  13. If y’all see me here tomorrow, come kick my ass.
  14. I know. He seems to be an open book. But it’s a bit surprising that level of engagement he drums up. He’s passionate about it. We all are to some degree. And many of us can be over the top. As for me, as of age, I become less mature regarding my sports opinions and dig in a little deeper. It was merely a joke directed at thatguy so Derks don’t think I’m coming at you.
  15. As to the first point, why? And some posters believe another poster has issues. As to the second one, I have some insight but working from educated guesses as to this particular point. There is subjectivity but working from what is likely a defined set of circumstances. It’s a bit fandom view, but the teams use the info so there’s likely team input even if indirectly. So on that play, obviously you’d need a specific visual, but generally speaking that’s on the Oline. If it’s 5 seconds after the snap and the QB runs into his lap in the opposite B gap, then the Oline won’t likely get tagged for that.
  16. Might as well just say shut the site down.
  17. I got you. I agree with you. My point still stands. The thrashing of players goes a bit far. I’m not even saying you even though I took a small comment out of context perhaps. Maybe slightly intentionally. That overall tone of negativity is present here on both sides. It’s always team.
  18. @Thatguy if nothing else you talk football, some don’t care to engage in that. You didn’t ask me, but generally I’d say not on QB. Flashing back to UW last year, there was a borderline QB fault on a Campbell sack. Not sure if it was a twist. Really more unfortunate timing.
  19. Steam, I believe those that track self sacks do attempt to define it. It is not perfect, but it is a data point. They’re doing their best to apply it consistently. It’s not even called a self sack I don’t believe. If the Olinemen is beat or missed an assignment, it’s not put on the QB. There is an analysis of every player on every play with a reasonable determination about what the offense and defense are attempting to do.
  20. So you must have shitty players. Right? Does a losing record qualify or some other qualifier?
  21. Let’s try to take Ewers out of the equation here. It could and does happen to all QBs. 1). If that WR runs a 4.5 as opposed to a 4.3, does he catch it? 2) If you’re an NFL GM, and you only have one play to watch, how would you rate this Qb play with respect to timing, accuracy, anticipation?
  22. You weren’t exactly demonstrative in your statement, but you did refer to shitty teams with the implication that we had shitty players. Every year we have multiple folks ripping players. That’s been done here throughout the thread too. There is a disconnect somewhere. Since Colt, we’ve had 3 QBs, Ewers will be the 4th, spend time in the NFL. I believe Ash medically retired. Swoopes made it in the NFL at a different position. Maybe we didn’t win as much as we’d like. But maybe our shitty QBs weren’t exactly the problem. People suck. More so on social media platforms. Ever buddy has an opinion. And we’re all right in our own minds. I’m just trying to determine if we shit talk some but not others. Is that ok?
  23. So in your defense of Ewers, you’re willing to shit on many other players and teams? This is part of why I push back. There is no hesitation to downplay others to lift up Ewers. It is a message boards right to do so to crucify or so it’s posters feel. Repeat it to yourself, a QB is the most important position but is easily the most dependent on every other mofo out there. There’s only one QB that’s had the same coach and same system for 3 years running since Colt. Probably didn’t help those other shitty QBs. Nowhere in the annals of college football history is Craig Krenzel considered a great QB. Yet he finished #1. Probably same for Greg McElroy. Boomer, you’re a reasonable bastard. There’s some element of truth here, but particularly in 2023, there were few here that contributed after Ewers arrival. It was reported that Taaffee and Arch were tight during his recruiting process. Arch is here more because Sark. And let’s not forget money helps. That ain’t Ewers. Anthony Hill and Collins Simmons ain’t showing up because Ewers is QB. All them DTs we’ve seen were here prior to Ewers. Sark ain’t recruiting a Colt. But if Colt were here upon arrival and won it all, people are lining up to come here.
  24. I will add that Texas was no. 1 in yards per carry prior to that 9th data point with only UGA having a 9th data point too.
