OK, you know what? I can get behind this. Sure, that's all plausible, and I agree with the learning process. And yeah, it's football, weird shit happens. I want to see more Manning to Wingo connection, as well as Moore. They need it badly. Wisner, and it's not his fault at all, and I was shocked to hear we haven't had a single game with over 100 rushing yards all season. I thought he did against ou, but nope. He did what he had to do, and that was make chicken salad out of chicken shit. If our OL were just above average and consistent, this would re-shaoe the entire team completely on offense. As for defense, man, we looked really good at tnes in the secondary, but then you would see stupid shit like McDonald face-mask penalty. Akina needs to be replaced, that's his position, and Taaffe took a step back this season. That's not his fault, that's coaching. I don't know anything about Orphey, so I put him in the Kenny Baker category of I'll wait and see. But we need a safeties coach in the worst way. I miss Gideon. We gotta get that shores up, and it was great to see Kobe Black ball out against 3 of the best WR's he's gone against. Littleton is just a gamer.

@Drew Stop being overly emotional. You're better than this. You don't have to agree with it, but dude, be cool.

Fuck yeah we're winning 10! We are gonna roll in the bowl game and it's a successful season. After how we started to even get to the point of 10 wins is nothing short of amazing. We truly looked like Rosie O'Donnell's asshole has raging diarrhea. There was a point where I wondered if we would win 7 games — total. We just have to put it together. We can't keep having this first half stagnated, fossilized turd. Having to hope and pray we come out hot in the second half is not a recipe for success. Hell, early on there were people saying we weren't winning 5 games. I knew 3 things for certain, and you can verify my posts on them- 1. I said we would beat ou 2. We would beat Arky 3. We would liquify aggy at seasons ends. Those were my 3 guarantees. 4. OK, I said we would beat Ohio State, too, but...uh....we'll skip that one.

Then you and I are in the same boat lol.

All I left were my keys at your mom's house, that wasn't money. I came back for them.

Yeah, man. That TD run he looked absolutely smooth. I had never seen him play before, but damn I was impressed. They should have played him over Owens. Smith just has something different in him.

Jesus Christ, dude.

You guys are letting emotions override rationale. That's totally understandable after beating aggy like a mule in Mexico, and I understand being down-voted because as you see it "I'm not a real fan" simply because I've laid out the why. I graduated and have a masters, but somehow I'm not a fan? I know Surly is knee-jerk, and that's fine. That doesn't make me any less of a fan. It means we see it differently. I'm not here trying to change minds like some guru, I'm just being real. Who the fuck are you?

Exactly. That's the Paradox of Futile Desire, which I laid out below. I understand why people want it, and I do too, but there's a rationale that says it's just showing up this year. I'm not just a fan, I'm a grad and I bleed burnt orange, but I also understand that sometimes you have to be real. I will obviously cheer if we make it an hope for the best, obviously. But Georgia was just 3 games ago, and it was brutal. Beating your rivals is one thing, but getting beaten at every position while also losing out best defensive player in the process showed how far behind we truly are this year.

It's not about making the CFP, it's about making the CFP with a team that can win it all. Obviously I would love to make the CFP, but I know we don't match up well with most of the top teams. What's so hard to understand about that? Did you miss what Georgia did to us? Mike fucking Bobo has out-coached Sark on offense 3 times in two years. Do you think that's going to change because...playoffs? Do you want that to happen again but by someone else who doesn't stagnate in the first half? Beating aggy is fucking awesome. But damn, dude. You're missing the forest for the trees. You're wanting a plaque and a lottery ticket that you're fantasizing about that we can compete with anyone. No we can't. That's being unbiased. This isn't TexAgs, bro. We can be real here and not live in some distorted reality. If this were.a 4 team playoff and we had an outside shot, fuck yes. But this is 12 teams with at least half of them having the same amount of talent, but better offenses. We are inconsistent at best, and I'm being generous. It's paradoxical- Make the CFP for the sake of saying we made it and not having areal chance to win it all, while ignoring losing to Florida, and going to OT against shitty Kentucky and Miss St Don't make the CFP, still make a good bowl game, get to 10 wins and get Arch ready for next year when he really breaks out. It's the Paradox of Futile Desire 1. Desire — There is genuine want (making the CFP) 2. Futility — the object of desire is known to be unattainable (making the CFP but knowing we have no chance at winning it all) 3. Paradox — the knowledge of its impossibility both suppresses the desire and fuels it

It's all good, man. We can always disagree and still be cool. No issues with you at all, my dude.

Let me ask you guys something — Would you really want to make the CFP with this team? You think this team can win it all? Ask yourself that. You want a meanungless consolation prize that means nothing? It doesn't help us with recruits, they have seen what they want/need to see, and we for sure aren't beating Indiana, Ohio State, Georgia, Ole Miss, and maybe Oregon. I don't know about Bama because, well, no one does. They lost to ou and FSU, so who knows? Deboer has Sark's number, just like Kirby. We can probably beat BYU, Tech, and Miami, but we would be going on the road to some freezing ass Midwestern state, and we ain't built for that yet. Hanging a plaque in the hall of honor saying "We made the CFP 3 years in a row!!!! " means nothing. We don't want to make the playoffs, we want to make the playoffs and realistically know we can win itt all. This team can't. Next year Arch? Sign me tf up! Who cares? We build from this year and be fucking ecstatic that we won 9 games, but we looked like an asshole enema for the first half of the season, lost to a hapless Florida team who finally fired their inept and obtuse HC, and then had to go to OT against the dregs Kentucky and Miss St, got fucking rag dolled against Georgia. It changes nothing. Luck isn't helping us make the semis. We don't have the talent this year. Our OL punked aggy because they were always fool's gold. I fucking love winning 9 games with 3 of them against our biggest rivals, but you have to look at the bad, too. Our OL is not good. They're bad. Not Stroh bad, but they're weaklings, as Georgia showed us. We are not a complete team and we play down to competition. For fucks sake, we had to go into OT against ASU when we were up by 3 scores last seaaon IN OUR HOME STATE. But you think this team is making a difference? Nah, fam. Let's build from this season and fucking roll fOSU at home to start the season and LFG. Next year's Arch will be on a new level.
