The OT College Football Thread....

War Damn Eagle gonna have a great year, I think. As much as I despise their DC, (who's name I refuse to mention), I think he's a pretty good one and he has a LOAD of talent to work with this year.  

Tarheels and the "Lamecocks" in Charlotte tonite! 

Gators going with QB Treon Harris against New Mexico State Saturday. I'm guessing that local phenom Will Grier will replace him by the time they play the vols.

Speaking of UT, I'm getting REALLY tired of all the smack coming out of Knoxvegas about how this is their year to beat Florida. Well, I heard the same thing last year...(and the year before...the year before...and the year before)....yet victory against Florida has eluded Big Orange since 2004. 

I personally think Butch Jones is a good guy and the team has bought into to his plan, but you still have to go to The Swamp to beat The Gators, who just so happen to have a VERY formidable defense again this year, especially the defensive backs.    

What's on the line is:

GO FROGS!!!!!!

But...even today the media is reporting there's still a "QB conundrum" at Florida between last years starter, Treon Harris and red shirt Freshman phenom Will Grier. Really??? 

I think both QB's played a pretty good game, and in fairness, I can certainly see where yanking a guy out and putting him back in later like the coaching staff did with the two can be hard on a QB finding his groove, but the more the game went on, the more Mr. Grier separated himself from Mr. Harris. Clearly.....

Grier has a lightening quick release, great accuracy and was able to go through his progressions and read defenses, where Harris seemingly held on to the ball a bit too long and had trouble finding open receivers. Harris didn't have a bad game really, actually pretty good "statistically", it just seemed the game came easier to Will Grier.  

Grier did have a fumble for a loss and put the defense, which played great, in a bad position though. Don't get me wrong, I like Harris a lot. I think he's a great kid and super athlete, but Grier is The Man moving forward. The media can keep stirring the pot of conundrum all they want.... 

Shout out to Texas A&M yesterday and they rolled over Zona State. "The Chief" has the talented defense playing lights out. MUCHO improved from last years squad that frankly looked confused and out of position last year. The little I saw of that game, showed the defense SWARMING to the Sun Devil ball carrier on nearly every play. 

Myles Garret maybe the best defensive player in the country this year. He and Hall on the other end are gonna make a lot of offenses MISERABLE this year. They are absolute monsters and there isn't a better DE tandem in the country now. 

Running game got going better than last year from what I witnessed too. 

Carson looked good, from what I saw. 

SEC held their own yesterday. (And Thursday when the Lamecocks BARELY beat NC.) The Game Cocks have issues this year on both sides of the ball.
