Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[rikberry31]

I bet DW would definitely have some games in Neyland if it was big enough. Don't think it's wide enough for a baseball game. I like your thinking.

No room.

We need to get the trifecta. Is '98 the last year we beat Florida, Georgia and Alabama?

Don't need, but would be a huge cherry on top.

We do need to take care of business vs UK and Vandy. Continue to progress and peak in late December by the time of the playoffs.

So much love for the DBs last night, and nobody even talking about this one…

Boo after taunting the WR and then slapping back at the WR, but then seeing only the WR get an unsportsmanlike penalty:

And they had to find a reason to fine us too

The DBs were not messing with Ryan Williams. If the message was to be physical, message was received.

The way UGA DBs have played for years.

Glad we're playing the game too.

Did anyone else double take on this kids last name?

Good god that's crazy to be so dominant in so many categories.

Banks needs a raise and about 50,000 apology letters.

I had to post the recruiting buzz in the recruiting forum.

Also credit to Heupel for such a big time hire on the other side of the ball.

Never saw that under the other HCs who just wanted safe retreads on the opposite side of the ball. Hype went young and aggressive.

MaHomes doing MaHomes things. Crazy run down the sideline after juking the DB.

Did we figure some things out in the second half last night
I feel like we have a ton of positives from the second half to keep improving through the bye week
This team is real close to being the team nobody wants to see in the playoffs

I thought Nico looked better all game long.

He just finally hit a couple long shots 2nd half.

From Arky and UF I think he's made strides. Just settle in and chill and we can score 30+ from here on out. Which, with this defense, is a sizeable margin.

 

[DD4ME]

Just because I’m a worry type of person.

Anyone think Sampson sits out for the draft if we make the playoffs? Not just him, but whoever else is draft eligible.

No

And there was a reason we didn’t play the way Banks has always wanted to play. It aligns with the staff letting pretty much the entire secondary walk in the offseason.

While so many were saying that our biggest concern was the secondary l was saying nope, we’ve upgraded. Fact is this defense is an evil kinda nasty. Al Wilson and Leonard Little are saying, “Those dudes are filthy.”

TAMU
LSU
UGA
Vols
Ole Miss
Tejas
maybe Bama

probably 4, maybe 5, make the CFBP..gonna be crazy ride.

Lots of cannibalism yet to occur.

We have made it past the worst of our schedule compared to some of those teams.

 

[JCVol00]

I love that our 3 best secondary players are 2 transfers and a walk on lol

Boo is so good. And just a frosh.

 

[JCVol00]

I noticed that we have a new sprinkle with our offense, Nico acts like he is rolling out then hands it to the rb, has a lot of potential tbh

 

[Devo182]

I think you can put Ole miss and Bama on the outside looking in. They have no room for error and both still have tough games left.

None of LSU's remaining games are gimmies.
aTm has USCe and Texas, and LSU/aTm still have a head to head.

Lots still to play out.

I think the floor is 4 SEC teams, with a better than average chance at 5.

4 SEC
Oregon, OSU, PSU
2 ACC
1 Big 12
G5
ND (or Indiana?)


The SEC could very well deserve 5, but will keep knocking themselves out, so I don't see 5 making it in. And yet some want 9 SEC games...
