I'm normally a bit negative but I don't see UGA coming back in this one.

The offense is truly a fucking wreck. This is not an amazing Ole Miss team. They're good but zero reason UGA only has 10 points at point in the game

Clemson up on VT. I need them to win that game, and that will only leave Penn St later to fill my parlay.

And it’s crazy how the overall quality of play has dropped off this year. Oregon is #1 overall, and last years multi-loss Duck team would have murdered this one.

Oregon dude stepped out and they decided not to call it on the TD
I think Refs central replay didn't want Oregon to only be up 16-10 at half to Maryland

Clear image of him stepping out and they call it indecisive.

Targeting rules need to be adjusted. Fucking insane.
I hate the targeting rules. There's too much ambiguity involved. You have players running full speed, trying to time the angle of tackles to avoid it...the offensive player makes a last second adjustment to his angle, causing helmet to helmet contact, and the defender gets penalized. That's bullshit. Sure there are some instances when it's intentional, but 90% of the time it's not.

The portal leveled the playing field. Instead of 2-3 teams that are dominant, like years past, you now have a bunch of teams capable of winning it all or losing to a mid-pack conference foe.

I think that's a big part but it's also an awful year for QB play. QBs are an exception to draft grade vs where drafted but I've read a few articles talking about this year's group of QBs. It ranges from none have a first round grade, none are graded in the top 50, the top guy this year wouldn't grade in top 4 of last year, etc.

It’s more than that. This is a down year in general. The level of play has dropped across the board. It happens every now and then.

Matrix @Matrix you son of a motherless goat don't ever attempt your Gritty juju on UGA ever again. 😂

Ftr, I predicted this would be one of UGA's 2 regular season losses previous to the start of the season.
