DJ will be a hell of a player for us. Has ridiculous bounce.Quote:

1st of many bumps for trolling dumbasses. This Fall is going to be funQuote:

And honestly, like him or hate him, he does bring info to the board. And obviously an opinion or two. And he like most on here just wants us to win. At least I'm pretty sure that's the case. Almost positive.Quote:

You slowly weaseled your way back into board, which was unfortunate. You should quickly sprint your way back out.
You were wrong and you are a moron. This wont be last time you get called out. Take your medicineQuote:

But last time they were coming off a down year and nobody thought they were going to be good,(and they didn't have the returning dL they have this year) they beat ga and bama and were a win away from being in the playoff. So I'd say 9-3. Lots of talent in that lockeroom
I dont think Nick or Carter are true points but both can acquit themselves at the position.
This team should make the tournament, though.
If it?s Carter, we?re screwed. There is more to a PG than just being able to get the ball up the floor.Quote:

I don’t agree w him that Auburn returning the entire OL that was bad a year ago and is now blocking for a true freshman qb makes for a promising season but it doesn’t make me not want him to post.
I’d rather read strident takes than boring ones.

We have enough talent around him to put him there in stretches.
Gus will be coaching desperate and that might give them an edge in toss up games. If Gus doesn’t have a 10-2 or 9-3 season, he’s going to be fired.Quote:

We will be undefeated going on the road against Auburn and whoever can win that game could propel themselves to a great season if Auburn is also undefeated. Auburn also could have 2 losses at that point and see their season as over. You really never know until you get to that situation.Quote:

They went 8-5 in 2016. So yeah. That's down for auburn.Quote:

I'm guessing Bama and UGA are just too good for them barring some flukish luck, and then @LSU and @FL are going to be extremely tough.
I think their offense, even if it's extremely run heavy, is going to be tough for us with our interior DL. I just have visions of them stretching us out with their sweep stuff and then just punching us for steady gains up the middle.
How many years can Gus go 8-5 and not get fired? How's that?? So they had 3 outliers in less than a decade?? That's a third of the years????Quote:

Probably the same thing is true for their 2014 8-5 team that lost to Wisconsin in the Outback bowl.Quote:
