re: Irrational Exuberance Rant

The best part will be when we eventually get eliminated from the SEC tourney and someone(s) will claim we should not be invited to a regional and have no chance to advance anyway and Jay should've (or should not have) pitched Holman in game 2 and that's why we lost. Ok not the best part, but it w...
He has the potential to be Jamarcus Russell. And that could be bi-polar freshman Russell, accomplished 3rd year Russell, or I am completely out of my element NFL rookie Russell. ...
[quote]He's a middle of the road game manager type of QB best case scenario. That's his ceiling which is lower than Nico's floor.[/quote] This might be the most inaccurate, backwards assement of any player in college football history. It is literally the exact opposite of what anyone with a brain...
[quote]This also tells me the obvious, they are a lock for the tournament after todays win.[/quote] They are indeed a lock, but team futures odds has absolutely nothing to do with that. And 20/1 is pretty bad odds for a team that had to win a virtual play in game 3 days ago. Taking away emo...

[quote]Neal has a better: BA, OBP, Slug %, OPS, more HR/AB[/quote] Even in a recent slump, Travinski's blows him away in those categories in SEC play. Of course he has a ton more post season experience and is the de facto team captain. That said, I am not as down on Neal as most seem to be. It...

[quote]No reason to push him, hold him back for thursday[/quote] From a competitive standpoint I agree and there is no reason at all to throw him on four days rest as the game is meaningless. From a confidence/team momentum standpoint I will trust Johnson on that decision as well as how to proce...
[quote]Only bad game in last 20 was to the #1 team (at the time) on the road.[/quote] And even that one we lead 3-0. I honestly think we started to turn it around against Tennessee. Yeah, I realize we got swept, but the games were close, the pitching showed up big time and we showed (up until t...
[quote]Literally the opposite needs to happen[/quote] We need to un-frick Alabama?...
[quote]We dont NEED anything. We're in. But I agree with your sentiment [/quote] You dig it the most...
To miss the chances in the middle innings to blow it open in a pitchers ballpark and then finally break thru in the 8th is huge...
Because frick Alabama. EDIT 1. Im day drinking B. I know we are in regardless. And frick Alabama 3A. frick Alabama 3B. Im day drinking...

I like keeping him in so that he can work on throwing strikes after the 8th inning walks...

[quote]Do not be deceived bama will bama as they have since 1922[/quote] Or they could be Bama in the 24 years between Bear and Saban when they lost an average of 4 games a year and won one NC. I'm guessing they will be somewhere in between those two extremes....
Its more likely we lose 2 out of Bama, Ole Miss, OU and USC. And I would be happy if we got that done and had a home playoff game in TS....
One thing is for sure. UGA is head and shoulders the favorite. I cant imagine them having more than 1 loss. If they would somehow miss out on the 12 team playoff, it would be the biggest story in college football. ...
If we can be average on defense, we will be better than both. Not taking anything from OU and UT, but Nuss isn't a typical first year starter, and this will be our best O-line in a long time if not forever. It wont matter though if we roll out last years defense at which point they would both be...
