You really think we could destroy Ga Tech in the Peach bowl? A team that runs an offense that demands discipline on defense to stop? Sorry - I have zero faith that the existing defensive staff can get this done.

Not as bad as we destroyed Miami. The score will be like 51-31. Yes the defense will perform pitifully. I think JJ, LaFell, and Williams are going to whop some arse though.

If they hire a new DC they aren't going to use him for the bowl game, that would be utterly ridiculous. If there's one thing Miles can do right its take all the lessons he's learned throughout the season and digest them in 4 weeks to the point that he is able to obliterate bowl opponents. Changing DC's at this moment would change the defense - its too late to learn a new DC's way of doing things


I don't care who we play in the bowl game. Mark my word - we'll destroy them.

I think Texas got screwed IMO. Head-to-head matchup. Enough said.

So Texas should go because they're one loss is to a worse team than OU's one loss? That don't make sense either.

I think this is called a "Kansas City tiebreaker" ??

Basically, the two tied teams get together and play overtime rounds until one team wins.


With three teams you could just have each team play one round against each of the two other teams. If at the conclusion of that first one, one team has totalled more points than the other two - tiebreaker is over. If two teams are tied and have more points than the third, then do a tiebreaker with the two teams.

Example of one round:

Team A plays offense against team B and scores 7
Team C plays offense against team A and scores 7
Team B plays offense against team A and scores 0
Team C plays offense against team B and scores 3
Team A plays offense against team C and scores 3
Team B plays offense against team C and scores 3

So A has 10, B has 3, and C has 10. B is eliminated, and A and C play OT rounds till one wins.



It sounds silly but I don't think its any sillier than the ridiculous tie-breakers that are used. Anything past head-to-head is just arbitrary BS. A tiebreaker like this would settle it on the field of play without having to play a full game, and it would make for an excited 15 minutes of football

Not as crazy as you think. If Florida beats Bama, Texas probably stays above Florida in the computers. Its a solid 3 spot lead right now, which will dwindle some with a big win over Bama, but how much? Can Utah and TT maintain a bit of a wedge between the two? Maybe. Best case scenario for Texas (other than an Mizzou upset) would be the human polls to look like:

I would disagree. Florida's beating Bama will add a very tough win to their schedule in a week when Texas doesn't even play.

, an ugly win by Florida (how is a win over a #1 team ugly?),

---

Heck - our win over UT was "ugly" last year. We were on track to lose 14-13 when Zenon (sp?) got that pic-6 (pic-8?)

I think that this is the one decision by Miles that pretty much all fans support. It was a tough decision and other coaches may not have done the same thing. Long term he did our program a huge favor by getting rid of the cancer of RP. The guy had a tatoo of himself on his back holding the world in his hand - we don't need egomaniacs like that on our team.

Don't get your panties in a bunch, I was just kidding around.

BECAUSE HE WASN'T READY TO PLAY

If you'd seen the Troy St game you'd know this.

I thought blocking below the waste was legal in a certain zone around the position of the ball at snap.

Total defense 37
Scoring defense 66

An obvious reflection of the number of "near pick-6's" J Lee through - interceptions that result in the opponent taking possession in the red zone.
