    Dawgs...Why Are We Not Surprised?

    And what actions of the past on the part of UGA do you speak of? In the meantime, will/should the NCAA slap Oklahoma for the actions of guys like Rhett Bhomar, Baker Mayfield, Joe Mixon and Rodney Anderson? In the case of the last two ... wow, I guess the NCAA should act in order to keep women...

    Georgia's offense vs OU defense

    "I'll keep my own thoughts about that." It is no different from the frequent Oklahoma claims that SEC teams haven't seen spread offenses and don't know how to defend them.

    Georgia's offense vs OU defense

    Comparing opponents isn't that meaningful. If it were, Miami would never have won all those titles back in the day because it is difficult to find schedules weaker than their independent/Big East ones. The same thing could have been said about FSU in the ACC, Florida when the SEC wasn't as...

    TCU Defense and Georgia's Defense ...

    Sure. Name the 3-4 defenses that OU has played recently ... and provide the measurables on the guys on those defenses as well as the total defense numbers. Getting to the second level when UGA has Atkins, Thompson and Carter in the middle? Have Evans and Brown been clearing out guys like...

    TCU Defense and Georgia's Defense ...

    Yes, the comparison between UGA and Ohio State on defense is indeed apt! Because where UGA only gave up 20 points twice all season - and only gave up 30 points once - where Ohio State gave up 55, 38, 31, 21, 21, 21 and 20 in games this season. Now maybe the offenses in the Big 10 were much...

    TCU Defense and Georgia's Defense ...

    Yes, OU ran a 4-2-5 when they beat FSU for the national title. They switched to a more traditional scheme shortly after and I always thought it was a shame because I was a huge fan of that defense. Ha ha you are funny. If focusing on DL is "how the conversation works" then why on earth would...

    TCU Defense and Georgia's Defense ...

    Honestly this isn't true. UGA runs a 3-4 defense. So Bellamy lines up at OLB normally, and only shifts to DE in some i.e. passing down situations and packages. You can play coy if you choose, but that doesn't change the fact that UGA's pass-rushing OLB is bigger than 2 of TCU's 4 DLs. And he...

    Sooner vs Bulldogs stats

    Statistical comparisons are apples versus oranges comparisons because the SEC and the Big 12 are so different. And this isn't mere "conference supremacy" nonsense here. Look at the Big 12: Texas and Oklahoma are major athletics programs with a lot of resources, great facilities, outstanding...

    Georgia Boards ...

    To be fair, if you look at Oklahoma's results against top defenses in bowl/OOC play, and that of "descended from Mike Leach" type spread offenses in general https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Oklahoma_Sooners_bowl_games you can't fault them for believing this. Oklahoma - and the Big 12 in...

    While enjoying this moment ...

    This is not totally fair. Texas Tech at the time had 2-3 QBs that honestly were as good/better, and 2 of those guys are now in the NFL (Mahomes and Webb). Also, please remember that while Mayfield is very good, he benefits from Oklahoma's system and talent in which a lot of QBs - guys who were...

    How much are we paying coach Petrino? It appears we are paying way to much!

    Honestly, this isn't very helpful. Do you think that Clemson can be outcoached so easily when Clemson runs the same basic offense as Louisville does? You are going to trick them with the same plays that Clemson's defense sees every day in practice? The main difference between Clemson and...

    Except that the offense didn't do much either ...

    Clemson must be really scared

    The thing to remember is that Louisville was an independent forever, then C-USA then Big East. They are "new" at this big time football thing. Where like 10 teams - say USC, Texas, Oklahoma, Michigan, Ohio State, LSU, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, FSU, Oklahoma, Georgia, Miami - get multiple...

    Clemson Defense: IMPRESSIVE

    Clemson lost a ton of seniors - and juniors who came out early - off the 2015 team that came within a play or 3 of the national title. So their unit in 2016 was young and had to be carried by their offense at times ... of course it could also be said that they bailed out their offense a few...

    Petrino

    Except that Les Miles is an offensive coach. He is a former OL as a player. He was an OL coach for Michigan and Colorado in the 80s and 90s. Was OC for Colorado in the 90s, had some ideas but the head coach wouldn't listen to him so he split and was a TE coach for the Cowboys. Then he came back...
