With everyone losing in the "mighty" SEC, Georgia clinched a spot in their title game. I really hope GT beats them next week.

Sounds like elder abuse.

Him coaching was UNC abuse, so we're even.

To be honest, he was so bad that I can't even play the "Tomlin" game with him.

UNC was in a dark place, and he gave us a few moments of light. It was fine, but it's time to move on.

And the first two out are ACC and SEC.

Also, you counted ND as ACC.

I did not know he used to play at UNC. I have a feeling leisher would let him walk.

TTUN loses a QB commit.

To be expected after the 5 star committed, but they sure as hell better hope that 5 star stays.

There's someone else that's apparently sitting too?

Honestly, this is an interesting thing that nobody has really dove into yet. Southern teams heading up North are inevitably going to have a losing record over the long term.

Just got home, and yes, I expect Day lost his job today. The only thing that could save him is winning it all. Apparently, they were a lock for the playoffs win or lose, so we'll see.

That was honestly the worst coached game I've ever watched and I watch a Tomlin coached team every Sunday.

Yes, weather is the great equalizer, our O line has been decimated, and the D played great, but holy shit I don't know what the fuck kind of game Chip Kelly was calling. "Our O line has changed multiple times this year due to injury and TTUN's strength is up front defensively. I think I'll run up the middle on every fucking series."

Congrats to Cake.

I was waiting for Leisher to post just to make sure there were no spoilers.

I didn't even bother turning the game on until 2:30 left in the fourth quarter and I was like "What the fuck?". I was that sure we were going to get blown out. So I did at least get to see the win. At one point, the camera locked onto Day and I said "That's the look of a coach that doesn't have a job next year." But ya, if he wins it all, hard to fire him. But still, 0-5 against Michigan weighs heavy.

Just like a game from the mid 90's. The team that sucks and had no season somehow ruins the other team's awesome season. We did it to each other for a few years back then.

Since I don't watch OSU, how off were you (the team) that game?

You shoulda seen the UNC/NCSU disaster. Good gravy.

Good thing OSU didn't throw it to any of their NFL-ready WRs.

Completely different team. Like no other game this year. They kept running the ball constantly and never really threw deep. The two times they had a guy open for TDs, the TTUN DB would intentionally get called for PI to prevent them from scoring. Not making that up, it was clearly a strategy coming into the game.

D played great. O was garbage. Day and his staff played to not lose and it was obvious. He just doesn't have the killer instinct needed to win big games.

Vrabel is trending on X for a reason.

I'm ok with that. I'm told we don't have good backs, so, take the penalty and make them try again.

Having just watched the whole game, holy shit did both teams leave a ton of points on the field. But I mean, I'd expect it from us.
