    Sayin doesn’t seem to have any pocket awareness with no sense of when to throw the ball away. He has to stop taking sacks.

    You misspelled what happens when you miss wide open guys, make bad decisions and lost your accuracy

    He had a bad half. He had time and that huge sack was entirely on him holding the ball forever and not getting rid of it. If he wasnt missing guys they have at least 17 points and most likely 24

    The ones who need to be out are Ryan Day and Arthur Smith. Where is the draw play, screen pass, swing pass, jet sweep, quick out, quick slant and most importantly the rolling pocket??

    None of that ever gets used and when it’s needed most, on a day like today, they seem unprepared or unwilling to use any of that stuff. But they leave a QB hanging out to be battered.

    Currently it’s hard to figure out the SEC and Big 10. Consequently, it’s hard to figure out the best teams in those Conferences.

    Former #1 Texas and former Top 10 Florida and LSU each have 2 losses, Alabama has a loss which leaves Georgia as the only undefeated team. In the Big 10 only UCLA is undefeated and both Oregon and Ohio State are now without their starting QB’s.

    We may yet see a Georgia loss and it’s not out of the question that Notre Dame finishes as the only undefeated team. The twist is that they are an Independent. The longer the season goes the more I’m thinking there will be some 2-loss teams in the Playoff and maybe even the first 3-loss team.

    Parity has arrived, thank you Transfer Portal and NIL Payments.

    You are wasting your time trying to reason with the basebal gu or get an unbiased comment. In reality, unless they are playing each other like Ohio State/Indiana or last week’s classic Alabama/Georgia game, these top teams shouldn’t struggle. That is amplified when it’s a Home Game and/or the opponent is unranked.

    The basebal gu knows that but he won’t admit.

    They always have a dog crap game and Stockton is trash today which is killing them.

    I know youre not used to a conference that isnt just top heavy and can be good almost top to bottom but the only trash teams are Arkansas and Vandy and Vandy at least has a good coach. Arkansas might fire theirs at the end of the year

    Georgia is held out of the red-zone and settles for a FG.

    Tennessee stretches its lead with a TD.

    Both Alabama and Georgia may and probably will come back to win, but denying that they are struggling is like the little boy who’s whistling past the graveyard on Halloween Night.
