iirc he has no football exp outside of coaching. dude is like a scientist or some shit by trade. someone feel free to correct this. just thought I heard it and don't feel like looking it up.

You are correct. He never played football. Graduated from BYU, then Pepperdine where he got a JD, and I believe some kind of sports academy after that. I know Hugh Freeze is the same way, never played college ball.

I've always thought it was hilarious that he went to BYU and is like he is.

Mizzou 20, Georgia 14, 3:24 to go in 2nd. This is like the 4th most interesting game on. Thank you, college football.

indeed. this year has been pretty damn good so far IMO. and as a UGA fan it's nice to finally have a team that doesn't just quit when they get down.

saw that Texas game too. boy howdy did they get screwed. even I couldn't find a way to justify that

If we stuck with the highly successful running game, we win that thing going away. Shane wasn't the same after the huge hits he took early on and then our offensive play calling just seemed scared late.

I guess I'm saying I don't think we win even if we get the ball at the 20 with no timeouts, but it sure would've sucked less. Hell, even if they just score the same TD and we're down 2 scores needing an onside recovery...

But instead, the way the official explained it implied that if we'd picked the ball up sooner or had fallen on it, selling that we thought it was live, we'd have had it. The fuck? So incredibly arbitrary. Dylan Haines casually picked it up after about 3 seconds.

Silver lining: that's as close to a B12 offense as we'll see, and we have a well timed bye week to get healthy and get the secondary sorted. The constant blown coverages were the main issue. Bye, then Okie State and then OU. The B12 is down, so Texas could get this rebuild a little ahead of schedule IF the secondary can become the strength it looked like on paper.

it's early. how many times have we thought teams X,Y and Z were going to dominate only to have half the field flip?

all I can hope for is Ole Piss is just flat worn out from the last to weeks and we can jump on them early and get Kelly to play for us early instead of late like he tends to do.

and for gawds sake our O line... please stop sucking.

I think Louisville is for real. I'm tempted to go watch them beat the shit out of Marshall this Saturday. I'd probably end up in a fight though..
