Now I'm not going to say any names here, but what if Shadeur Sanders set himself up nicely by playing like ass in the bowl game. His dad will only allow for certain teams to draft him, so maybe it helps to slide down the draft board a bit? I'm not the conspiracy guy, but I do like to start fights between friends, then run up the hill and watch the battle.

So during the game yesterday they said the portal closes last night? Does that mean we didn’t get any OL? Does it open again? Sorry I can’t keep up with all the madness.

TIA

Was wondering if Raiola stuck with UGA do you think he would be starting in the Sugar Bowl?

I feel like he probably would be, but could be off, Stockton has not played poorly and had a terrible dropped TD pass.

I just gotta say after spending some time scrolling through twitter this afternoon, that area is just devastated. I have seen a story about a guy that hiked 12 miles to his parents remote home because no roads were open and he found them fine thankfully. There is a guy on the ground that had a couple starlink setups that donated them to the people to use to connect to people outside the area and now he is having 10 more flown in for the others around that area. Other people finding ways to get to stores to buy all they can to bring into the community to help with feeding everyone.

It's moments like this that remind us all that if we can help we should help. Florida even sent air and rescue assets to North Carolina after they got done with what they needed to do to get people rescued in their own state. It's amazing what we can do when we help each other out. Please keep the thread if you choose to respond in the spirit it was meant.

We have anyone in it ? Or considering us seriously?

I'd like to give up these dang nicotine pouches but that's going to be a BIG ask so I think I want to lose 15 lbs instead

I think OSU and OR would have won it. Michigan and PSU would have been close and Michigan would probably be in the playoff if they were in the sec. Surprising to see the sec suck so much this year.
