I think they should fire BK at this point. He can take his 60 million buyout, on top of the 30 million he's already earned, and retire, and sit on his pile of money, of 'generational wealth'. Thanks to ND fans, LSU fans have become equally bonkers and almost violently agitated over a three game losing streak. And they can replace their hated 'yankee' coach with someone hailing from south of the Mason Dixon line. Personally, I thought he was doing great. He took a legit dumpster fire program in total disarray, that he inherited from cajun favorite son Ed O., and had them in the SECCG first season. Recruited and developed a Heisman winner, who's probably even better than their beloved Joe Burrow. And was 6-1 this season before an improbable 2nd half comeback loss to A&M, and now the wheels have fallen off a bit, but it's not that god-awful of a crisis, and they stand at 6-4. And of course the bigger blow, losing BU. To a massive NIL deal that LSU wasn't able/going to match, that had absolutely nothing to do with BK himself. But he is the coach, so he does have to bear the blame anyway. He was not able to somehow save the situation, with some last minute in home visit or something. So that's his fault too.

So they should fire him. And just eat the money. And they learned their lesson. Don't hire BK!

Nah, reacting to your opinion that we’ll be fine with having one of Bettis or Richardson be solid, etc…. In combination with an unknown transfer. I agree that Burress is much better than generally thought, but I think we need a couple outstanding receivers to get this team to the next level. I agree we have some talent and some very solid receivers, but we don’t have those difference makers. If our goal is to make the playoffs and seriously compete for national championships, I personally don’t think we’ll be fine with next year’s receiver room. I’m hopeful that Richardson turns out to be the guy, but that’s asking a lot.

Well, I have to go to a surprise birthday party at 6 p.m. Saturday, which means I can't watch the game. And that means I'll be peeking at my phone all night long, which means that this game is going to be agonizing, with ND eking out a 24-17 victory or something like that. Before you scoff at me, you should know that I've had to miss more games than I'd care to admit to over the past 20 years, and almost every time, it has come down to the wire. This year, I missed the second half of NIU and the fourth quarter of Louisville.

Ohio Dt has the better loss, but again it is not by much. Texas lost to what is likely the most talented SEC team the week after they played their historic rival, clear hangover game.

I would need to see GTech play very competitively against UGA to buy that. We already saw the Dawgs cakewalk over Clemson.

You thought what I said was overly optimistic?

Saying it's not a mess is optimistic? Interesting

How so? What is Texas' best win?

Ohio state has a better win and a more competitive loss.

Honestly we should be ranked ahead of them. They've done nothing. Probably the 4th best team in the sec

The ACC games have been great. SMU, Miami, Clemson, Louisville, Duke and Syracuse have played some good ball. Pitt has had it's moments but they were escaping some games early in the season and their good early record was fools gold. The SEC schools are no better than the ACC schools and that will be realized next week with the SEC ACC matchup's outside of FSU vs UF.
FSU is dog water this season.

Yes, I think it’s pretty hard to be as optimistic as Golson or as pessimistic as Nasty regarding our receiver room, and the class of 25 in particular. We clearly have some intriguing guys with big upsides…Gilbert and Burress and Richardson to name my top candidates. Williams is an enigma for me and a low floor high reward prospect at this point. Frankly, if we had commits from Golden and Zachary as receivers instead of defensive backs, I’d be pretty pumped with the class of 25. Watts to safety proved genius, and perhaps we’ll see a similar result with one of these guys moving to receiver.

I agree w a lot of that.

But we don't throw. And Leonard isn't a guy who's going to facilitate a WR putting up big numbers.

That'll change w Carr.

Williams and Gilbert could end up being big time. And I think Burress too, is going to emerge

Truth be told Army has zero business being ranked given the schedule the Cadets play.

If Army played a full SEC schedule, they finish st best 6-6.
