The Official 2019-2020 Season Football Thread

Tough to say who will win the natty this year. Everyone can beat each other, but I think clemson is the best team in the nation. Even though the rankings won't show it, I bet Clemson will be favored slightly in all playoff matchups assuming they beat Virginia.

As much as I am happy ALA lost to Auburn, ALA really outplayed Auburn and the FG for Auburn at the end of the first half was a legit but a fluke play.  If the Auburn player goes down with 3 seconds left instead of 1 second, Auburn never gets a shot at the FG. 
ALA gave up pick six TD's and the fluke FG, and that did them in.

FLA dominated FLA St.  I was pretty happy with the way they played except for that bone head fake FG on their own 19 & the receiver who had a first down but ran backwards and lost 5 yards.
FLA had 8 sacks and one of their DE still is not playing.  I wonder if he will play in the bowl or sit out for the draft

Yeah my team totally crapped the bed against OSU.  I cant stand the fellow fans who overhype the game every year.  Im a realist and see a good OSU team.  Id like to see a OSU-LSU natty game.

Gonna start making my slogan GO BOO.  Buncha BS from a coach Id expect better from.  And Don Brown (defensive coordinator) crapped the bed once again.  He has lost his touch.

Michigan was outplayed but the game could've easily been within 1-2 TD's opposed to what the score actually was.

Just a reminder: if I sound a little dumber than normal it's probably due to me posting on my phone. I use Swype text plus put forth less effort because it's annoying compared to a keyboard, then autocorrect butchers it after. I reread my posts and say  sometimes

Auburn just country-mouth-fucked Alabamas free SEC Championship bypassed ride to a playoff spot.

THANK YOU, AUBURN. 

I'm now an avid Auburn fan ...until next season, anyway.

And I predict that LSU will ABSO-FUCKIN-LUTELY DESTROY Georgia in the SEC Championship next weekend. OR... Georgia will really surprise me and keep it a close competitive game... but will still lose, regardless. So if they lose, I won't be too shocked or upset. And if they win, I'll be pleasantly surprised. Out of anyone else projected to get a spot in the playoffs, I think LSU is the only team Georgia can't beat. In other words, I think whoever wins the SEC Championship will go on to win it all.

I think the Big 10 & Big 12 should not be allowed in the playoffs because of their poor academics. You know these teams are cheating, I bet their  players don't attend classes.  When the people at the top can't get it right, there is definitely a problem.

The Big 10 has 14 teams 
The Big 12 has 10 teams 

The PAC 12 sucks, but at least they have 12 teams.

It's smart of the committee to seed LSU and Clemson at 2 and 3 if they're trying to help OSU. LSU just has to beat Georgia, then the 2 best teams in the nation duke it out while OSU plays Utah, Oklahoma, or Baylor. Georgia is a tough game for any team in the playoffs, but if their offense can't click, but their defense plays GREAT, they still likely lose a close-ish one to LSU and Clemson. Assuming Georgia is playing at a realistic level of their potential, I see it as a 1/3 chance to win 28-24, and a 2/3 chance of losing 28-24.... if not I guess they'll lose by a bit more.

But, it's possible that Georgia is the worst map for OSU. OSU's offense gets slowed down for the first time, and Georgia's offense gets comfortable playing against the #1 defense in the country since their stats are padded with overrated teams. A lot of gray area and presumption there but I'd certainly enjoy it being that way at least

Oh baby. The thoughts of Georgia getting a crack at Ohio State makes my he-pussy all kindsa wet.

[Sgt. Dick]

I can't say that I have followed this closely, but I seem to remember the OSU QB Fields talking some trash on UGA a couple of times this year.

It would be great to see a UGA/OSU matchup

Oh baby. The thoughts of Georgia getting a crack at Ohio State makes my he-pussy all kindsa wet.

Yup. The playoffs seem very matchup dependent this year than normal. I seriously think that Georgia might be OSU's toughest opponent(I said "map", I meant matchup). After that, Clemson. Despite how good LSU is, OSU has a chance to score more on them than the other teams. I've always been critical of the people that say "defense wins championships", because ya gotta put points on the board haha. But, ONLY offense leaves no room for error. Of course, the beating LSU put on a&m was pretty nice. I'd just be bummed if OSU beats Baylor to get to the national championship then barely edges LSU in a high scoring "shootout".

Carolina panthers fire Ron Rivera. There's a lot of mixed views on this. Off the top of my head, Rivera has won his south division 3x, nfc championship once along with a super bowl appearance, and has won coach of three year twice within 8 years. That is probably... 5 playoff appearances probably, as many as 6 and a minimum of 4. That's not bad, but it's not great either. I think most would say that's above average. The panthers trend wasn't looking so hot and it may have been a good call. What's surprising is that I didn't know the Panthers had such a high standard of greatness lol. Definitely has me scratching my head. If they find someone good it'll be a good call.

It's nowhere near as stupid as the Atlanta Falcons and owner Arther Blank's haphazard willingness to fire coaches and players from the head coach down to the fucking water boy... while stubbornly refusing to fire his butt-buddy boy-toy GM Thomas Dimitrov no matter how fucking terrible the Falcons become.

Not long ago they signed Matt Ryan to a ridiculously lucrative contract extension, and you just watch,... I have a sneaking suspicion... at the end of this season or the next, they'll want to fire him, at which point they'll have to dump a fuck-ton of guaranteed money on him to buy out of his contract, and it'll fist-fuck their ability to obtain a good replacement. 

...but they'll keep little Tommy Dimitrov with his lesbian haircut and "Queer Eye" thick framed hipster glasses and give him a yearly raise.



Seriously. FUCK THAT GUY. What a homo.
