Yeah, got no clue who's dick Tennessee sucked to start the season ranked in the top 10. Whatever, they won't stay there long.

As for the bad calls and bad refs in the Georgia UNC game... nah, not really. Those pass interference calls would've been called on anyone. When the DB is making hand contact with the receiver without his head turned to look for the pass coming, they're gonna flag it all day long. That last incomplete pass call on UNC was legit too. He didn't maintain firm possession going to the ground. They were officials from the Big10 too, they had no interest in the outcome.

I do feel bad for UNC though. Kirby Smart's first game was definitely flawed. Surprised the Dawgs managed to win. If that dumbass keeps playing Greyson LAMEbert at QB, they're gonna get shitfisted. The retard took 3 or 4 needless sacks in 1 drive alone. I keep yelling at the TV, "THROW IT AWAY, ASSHOLE!" but he refuses to listen to my advice like the prick that he is.

Oh yeah, almost forgot... the LSU player that shoulder blasted a Wisconsin DB after he caught an INT and the play was over for a good 8-10 seconds. LOL!!!! Fucking poor sportsmanship, and he should probably kicked off the team or at least suspended a few games. But still... funny shit, hahaha!!!

Every single call went against NC man, come on.

Incorrect. Georgia had some false starts and offsides calls.

In my opinion, UNC really doesn't have much to be ashamed of from that game. They needed to do better against the run, and they certainly did. Georgia kinda flashed glimpses of their new freshman RB Brian Herrien, who's supposed to be a little faster than Nick Chubb and Sony Michel, and UNC largely kept him walled in too. Pass coverage was decent except for deep balls when DB's were playing the receiver more than the ball (gotta look back for the pass or else it's gonna be pass interference). Any mistakes were small ones that can and will be corrected. As for the offense... If anything, I'd be highly encouraged by what I saw. UNC obviously has a great QB now. He got the ball out accurately, completed shitloads of passes, didn't take large numbers of sacks, can run and be mobile when he has to. I'd kinda fault UNC's coaching/playcalling for not putting them in position to score more points. The uptempo offense in the first part of the game "seemed" like a good idea, but it really only served to get them off the field faster. Georgia almost always winds on defense by the 4th quarter, and going uptempo isn't gonna make it happen faster. They should've slowed it down a little early on. You saw what happened in the 4th though. By the time there was under 10mins left in the 4th, Georgia had NO fucking pass rush up front on defense to speak of. It looked like they were playing pattycake with UNC's offensive line. And by then, UNC was passing on every down and completing 95% of the passes for 5-10 yds each.

Well yeah, they have to call it when the LB runs 5 yards over the line of scrimmage or someone is obviously offsides. Those calls were all on one drive. Every single borderline call went in Georgia's favor, not to mention they were all potentially game changing and chance-crushing for unc. Fedora got his 1st unsportsmanlike conduct, he has never freaked out like that. Not that I'm fedora's biggest fan, some of the play calls were silly.

Chubb played well, Georgia's corners were surprisingly really good. They also stopped Elijah hood and tj Logan from running really well except when they actually found a gap. Chubb just ran unc over half the time. QB situation at Georgia needs some time. I agree with all of what you said foc and I don't mean to sound like a sore loser, but after the borderline calls going a certain way and that last one: the announcer said EXACTLY what I was thinking "this one they'll HAVE to side with unc, they need substantial evidence to overturn and he was ruled in bounds controlling the ball".... i didn't see clear evidence that he didn't have control of it. Did you? Yeah it was questionable, but enough to overturn? I just completely disagreed with that one.

haunted · « **Reply #50 on:** September 04, 2016, 07:36:04 AM »

I actually just read your post without being drunk and pissed off. The coaching was at fault for sure. Some crucial times they wanted to do the uptempo shit and always pass when they could've slowed it down and ran it some. Lost some crucial 1st down opportunities from it. Unc blew it.

Sgt. Dick · « **Reply #51 on:** September 04, 2016, 07:58:24 AM »

LSU is doomed by not having a decent QB once again.

Teams are filling the box to shut down the run and daring the QB to beat them, and Harris cannot.
I wonder how Fournette is feeling about this years team.

The Gators won but did not look very good.

The SEC overall did not look good.

|iR|Focalor · « **Reply #52 on:** September 04, 2016, 01:48:37 PM »

He didn't control the ball in his arms as he hit the ground out of bounds. It bounced loose against the ground momentarily when he fell, and the replay on TV clearly showed it in slow motion. It sucks if you're a UNC fan, but it was the right call. The commentator saying the ball moving from ground contact out of bounds or that such a call would be impossible to reverse... he showed his ignorance. All night he wanted to argue with the other guy over Georgia swapping out QB's when CLEARLY it was a good decision (no sacks after the change, and he actually THREW it instead of freezing like a deer in headlights). He's just a dumbass.

Dallas Signs Mark Sanchez - http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/17465263/dallas-cowboys-officially-sign-quarterback-mark-sanchez-keep-tony-romo-active-roster

I hope he plays, something entertaining usually happens when he plays

Cross pollinating threads here, but if you wanna see some REAL bad calls, check out the UFC Fight Night 93 (Arlovski vs Barnett) Rustam Khabilov fight. I swear, every time they fight outside of Vegas, and especially in Europe, it's reeeeal funny how the judges always give decisions to the fighters with more star power or the fighter deemed to be a future top 15 contender. Unless the least favorite fighter CLEARLY dominates his opponent for all 3 rounds, they always seem to skew their scoring in favor of the more popular guy. Khabilov stood there feinting the whole 15mins like a bitch, threw maybe 8 strikes all fight long, and he still wins. Most boring shit I've ever seen. They're fucking flyweights or bantamweights, not heavy handed heavyweights for fucks sake. HIT SOMEBODY!!!

FLA surprised me how they dominated KY.

What surprised me more was UGA against Nichols

|iR|Focalor · « **Reply #56 on:** September 11, 2016, 09:57:00 AM »

Yeah, Nichols ain't no joke up front on defense. Georgia probably shouldn't have won that game. That one Nichols fumble call where Georgia recovered it and scored maybe shoulda-coulda-woulda should've been called an incomplete pass. The dudes arm looked to be moving forward to me right at the instant that the Georgia defender hit him. I dunno how they call things based on what they see in a replay, but I guess they only call it an incomplete pass if the passers arm is moving forward BEFORE contact happens. The ruling after replay review was "fumble call confirmed by replay". Georgia better get their shit together though. LOTS of dumb mistakes made in that game that led to the score being so close by the end. If they had played that sloppy against North Carolina last week, it would've been an embarrassing fucking blowout.

But FUCKS SAKE, I wish they'd permanently bench Greyson Lambert. He's GARBAGE. Jacob Eason might be green as baby shit after eating pureed collards, but he's got real potential. A couple of throws Lambert made that ended in incompletions were REALLY stupid fucking choices. He had other options for more yards that were more open with 1-man covering them no where close enough to defend a catch, and he didn't even look at them once. Instead, it's like he picked one man to throw to before the snap, stared them down once he took the snap, and threw it to them even though there was 2 and 3-man coverage in the area. Fucking retarded! Like I said, Eason might be green and make a mistake or two, but at least he seems to be looking at ALL his targets to find the best one. This damn coach not trusting him... he needs to get the fuck over it and let him earn his stripes.

Gonna be "same shit, different day" in the SEC again this year. Doesn't matter how good Georgia or Florida are in the East, they got JACK SHIT for Alabama in the West. More than likely gonna be another National Championship for Alabama this year.

The big 12's playoff chances are fucked because I don't have too much faith in Texas. A 1 loss other power 5 team would get in over any of them now. I made $1300 yesterday. Deposited 250, made a few bets including ecu beating nc state parlayed with over 60 points(60 to win 360), then took all my midday winnings going all in for UNC covering a 7pt spread parlayed with it being over 60 as well. Balance was $1505 this morning haha. No clue why they'd set the spread at 7 when Carolina beat em by 40 this year. It went about how I thought considering it was home for Illinois and they got a better coach: nc won by 25. Larry Fedora still making stupid play calls too. Every good play I see are made by the individual talent of the players just about.

NC dropped in votes for the AP poll, lmao. I should care less about the rankings, but I knew a loss to Georgia would screw them. If Georgia keeps winning then down the road it won't reflect too poorly though. FSU plays Louisville then NC back to back. I could see them stealing the #1 spot from bama, even if temporarily, if they dominate them.

Sgt. Dick · « **Reply #58 on:** September 11, 2016, 03:33:37 PM »

Louisville has looked really good, but it has been against weaker teams. Louisville/FSU will show if Louisville is for real.
I was surprised by the play of FSU's QB against Ole Miss. I don't follow FSU that close, so I had no idea who the guy was.
If FSU gets that kind of play from the QB all season, they will be in the playoffs.

haunted · « **Reply #59 on:** September 18, 2016, 05:34:31 AM »

So.... Yeah. Let's say that FSU's defense all got drunk last night. Let's also say that obviously they didn't show up to play and Louisville did. I can't think of any other excuses, Louisville just smoked them and they had no answer for anything. Yesterday they were certainly looking like the team to beat in the country.

Watch fsu get a major kick in the ass though and come out in full force against NC soon though, lol. Between a starting LB facing rape charges, their best defender(only elite defender unc has) Nasir jones DT being injured, and the freshman starter at right guard being injured, NC's defense went from average back to pathetic. The offense is really good though.. Nc's qb just broke the record for most consecutive completions in the ACC. He's definitely very accurate, takes care of the ball, and can run insanely fast(faster than our good dual threat qb last year, he's just smaller). It just blows my mind how horrendous the defensive line is. NC may be able to out score fsu though. If they want a good post season game they'll need to beat fsu and hope Georgia wins out.
