Yeah it was me. There was another poster a while back too. Did the 72 hour fast. Felt like death the last day but I made it. Had electrolytes but hated the taste of them by the last day. Excellent reset on the body. Complete gut reset and got rid of a lot of inflammation. Gonna do another one after Christmas.

Weight loss, meh. You want to eat like a lunatic for the next few days so it’s hard to control weight, but that wasn’t my purpose anyway. If weight loss is your goal, count calories with intermittent fasting.

Did you have any hair growth?

It's wild to think that "IT IS CAUGHT! JAUAN JENNINGS!" is to him what the 85 Sugar Vols are to me.

Also, is it crazy to anyone else that there are kids in their 20s now who can relive sports moments from their childhoods in HD?

My earliest sports memories of the early 90s now look like they were filmed in 1971.

I go back to the days of rabbit ears or listening to the game on the radio because it wasn't being carried on any of the 3 major TV networks.

I was the other one. Can confirm. No weight was lost, only sanity.

I pray Syracuse beats Clemson.

1. It makes our resume better
2. Dabo will go nuclear

Thought their fans were good in Atlanta too

Not happening. Won't even be close.

Yo @berryvol , I’m sure we are similar here but this is what I have: not pictured- Boise state -10 -108, Virginia -16.5 +114 (boost), Vandy -26.5 -110. Also have 2 man teaser Rutgers +7.5, Miami Ohio +8.5

Are those individual bets, or are you angling for a Powerball-style parlay that will never hit?

Upsets are really difficult to predict but if Clemson's offense is going to 'get-right' Syracuse's defense is who to do it against.

 

[GVol1966]

He's in a terrible jam. Staying at UCLA appears to be a poor option. As an aside, I'm no qb whisperer but is Nico's throwing motion off? It looks terrible to me.

Definitely. Needs 10 better players around him and a couple million $$$ to fix it!

Just a reminder. Phil Fulmer coached our last championship.

Ed Orgeron coached LSU’s last championship

Round robin maybe

Bring em both back. Heck, lets just have em wrestle shirtless.

State of Tennessee has 5 players in 247 top 50 for 2027. Let’s lock down the state and get every one of em

Good take, but I think I disagree. In the post-turnover series, UGA basically dared Tennessee to run: 6 defenders against 8 Tennessee players in the box. Any throw would have been into double coverage. On top of that, Tennessee was already in field goal range and near the end of the game. Yeah, in hindsight, three runs didn’t work—but it took a confluence of penalties, missed blocks, and good plays by the other team to keep Tennessee from converting a first down. If similar events had happened in the pass game—like a missed block or a big defensive play—you might be looking taking a sack or worse. In the end, getting 3 points and running down the clock is a species of success, even if not the dagger you wanted.

As for trusting the kicker, I thought Huepel was playing game control. Winning by kicking is the most likely result, and he got his team into position by taking a minimum number of risks.

Kirby clearly wanted to make Huepel run plays at the end. He called timeouts just to make Tennessee make decisions and snap the ball, all but daring Huepel to take a risk. Maybe Huepel could have been more aggressive in the face of these timeouts, but I think he had a plan and stuck with it. He ended up taking the game down to a situation where Tennessee could not lose in regulation and had a good chance to win. That’s good coaching—even if it’s not perfect in hindsight.

I think Huepel is a better coach when he’s coaching from behind. The pressure is real.

Either spell Heupel’s name right or gtfo

Individual bets. Hardly ever do parlays

Purdue was one I considered. May get there tomorrow pending how my baseball bets do tonight

You're really banking on the coin flip with a 3 score 1st quarter.

Is Gundy getting fired tonight?
