I know the Huskies had their coach, and a good portion of their talent, leave for Alabama, but damn, Rutgers being 3-0 and leading one of last year’s playoff teams going into halftime was not anything I considered a remove possibility.

They were put into a tough situation to be sure. He did very well following the Urban Meyer debacle year, for basically a season and a half. They should have extended the fifth year option to see what this season would hold. That’s why it’s there. As a #1 pick, that’s a substantial extension on its own. Instead, they rushed to commit to Lawrence and have to make it work cap-wise for a much longer period of time than if they waited. I will say that, even if his ceiling is Kirk Cousins-esque, there is something to be said for being able to get your team to the playoffs just about every year. It keeps the fan base engaged, you know that tickets and merchandise won’t be an issue and you get a piece of the post-season pie every year. So say the Jaguars did move on, and they go through a seven year period where they only make the playoffs once? As a Washington fan who experienced this, I would’ve rather kept Cousins.

Saban sacrificed enough of them to appease the CFB pantheon for the next decade-ish

Does Miami even want this game?

Haha yeah, they also want to have us over for the UGA/FLA game, and I’m not sure they’re ready for that.

My wife is an Alabama fan, I’m a Georgia fan, and we’re having dinner at a Florida Gators house hold.

People thought I was crazy, but I thought Johnson was a better coach than what many were giving him credit for. He’s not Bill Callahan, but he’s a good coach.

It’s a shame to see how these once prominent NCAA blue-blood programs have fallen.

Doesn’t make sense at all. Bad look to have teams travel through all of that.

It’s 5:00 somewhere…….

Would be interesting to see Jamin Davis in that role IMO

People wondered why he was on the roster…….this is why.

The Orioles are in Minnesota, and the Phillies are in DC so both of those sites are wide open.

Yeah, that’s certainly what it sounds like……but would MLB “flex” the game to the nearest MLB stadium that’s empty? Lots of stadiums in California to choose from. Which is why with the playoff implications, why MLB didn’t move the Braves/Royals to Baltimore or Philadelphia this weekend to prevent the delay from the hurricane.
