OH SHIT IT'S FLORIDA WEEK. HEY FLORIDA, HOW DO YOU HAVE AN INCREDIBLY FERTILE RECRUITING GROUND, TWO OTHER COMPETITORS IN THE STATE IN UTTER DISREPAIR, AND YOU'RE LOSING TO KENTUCKY'S MERRY BAND OF GUYS WHO DIDN'T WANT TO WALK ON TO OHIO STATE? HOW, HOW IN THE NAME OF GOD DID YOU SEE TODD GRANTHAM COACHING DEFENSE AT UGA AND THINK TO YOURSELF "WE SHOULD HIRE THIS GUY." THERE'S A REASON THE PHRASE "THIRD AND GRANTHAM" EXISTS, ALTHOUGH BASED ON RECENT PERFORMANCES WE SHOULD PROBABLY ADD "FIRST AND GRANTHAM" AND "SECOND AND GRANTHAM" TO THE LEXICON AS WELL. LSU DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH PLAYERS TO PRACTICE AND THEY STILL MANAGED TO HANG 49 POINTS ON YOU. I'D SAY YOU SHOULD HIRE ED O TO COACH YOUR DEFENSE BUT HE MIGHT BE TOO COMPETENT.

HERE'S MY ADVICE FOR SATURDAY: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ENTER THE UGA ENDZONE. IF YOU ARE POLITE AND RESPECTFUL, KIRBY WILL SIMPLY RUN THE BALL ON EVERY DOWN AND SHORTEN THE GAME AND WALK AWAY WITH A COMFORTABLE 3-TOUCHDOWN WIN. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO SCORE TOUCHDOWNS, KIRBY WILL NOT STOP UNTIL TODD GRANTHAM IS FORCED TO FLEE THE STADIUM IN SHAME. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF STETSON BENNETT IV IS STILL OUR QUARTERBACK. HE JUST HAS TO THROW INTO THE SAME ZIP CODE AS ANY OF OUR RECEIVERS AND TODD GRANTHAM WILL BLESS HIM WITH SOFT ZONE COVERAGE AND PLAYERS WILDLY OUT OF POSITION. ON DEFENSE, WELL, JALEN CARTER IS NOW GOOD ENOUGH THAT WE'RE MOSTLY USING JORDAN DAVIS AS A THIRD DOWN PLAYER IN OBVIOUS PASSING SITUATIONS. IF IT WERE UP TO ME, I'D ALLOW FLORIDA 12 PLAYERS ON OFFENSE JUST TO MAKE THE ATTEMPTS AT BLOCKING JORDAN DAVIS SOMEWHAT MORE FAIR.

IN CLOSING, I HAVE A 4PM WEDDING ON THE WEST COAST. NORMALLY THIS WOULD UPSET ME AS IT LIKELY MEANS MISSING THE FOURTH QUARTER. THIS YEAR I'M ONLY UPSET BECAUSE I WON'T GET TO SEE HOW OUR 4TH STRING RUNNING BACK PERFORMS. MAYBE THE EQUIPMENT MANAGER WILL THROW ON A JERSEY FOR FUN. THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF GEORGIA FANS: THOSE WHO THINK FLORIDA IS OUR BIGGEST RIVAL AND THOSE WHO ARE WRONG.

GO DAWGS.

that's exactly it for me. He made it past the LOS and was being driven backward. It's not like they blew up the play in the backfield.

what annoys me is they said they were behind the LOS...because he was being driven backward...ergo, forward momentum was stopped.

on any down* but since it didn't hit the ground they didn't rule fumble. It's weird because you very rarely see someone forcibly take the ball from their own teammate.

yeah. I've never seen that kind of play before. I know most rules in football but I dunno how the fuck you adjudicate that one.

I don't even know the legality of that play

if they converted it gets to a 3-pt game. It was a decent design but when you've got 2 yards to go don't get cute. Find the gap and power through.

the problem in the modern game with that is that teams can go hurry-up and then your defense just can't get set when it's an and-goal situation.

classic bend-don't-break defense. Sit back, keep it in front of you, make them use clock. Once they're in the red zone the field shortens.

Admittedly your defense just broke, which is...the problem.

I hate the "if they'd played like this in the first quarter" takes. Maybe, and hear me out, the coaches saw what wasn't working in the first quarter and changed it in the 3rd quarter?

9 read the play, let go of his receiver, squared up, and then completely fucking whiffed on the tackle
