OT: All Purpose NCAA Football Thread Part IV (Summer)

[Cody Webster]

Georgia is a completely different team this half. They are running all over them and their D stepped up.

That terrible squib kick changed the game

Dawgs take the lead!

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Another great Rose Bowl game.

 

[Cody Webster]

What a game

 

[Cody Webster]

Another great Rose Bowl game.

We all thought last years game was GOAT, this takes the cake.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Not really sure what Oklahoma was trying to accomplish offensively that OT period.

They literally only ran trick plays...

 

[Cody Webster]

What. A. Game.

 

[Petr Svoboda Mullet]

Hell of a game. Best game so far this bowl season.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

They literally only ran trick plays...

It’s not even that. They took the ball essentially out of Mayfield’s hands.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

This game might be lucky to break 40+ overall.

I have no voice left. Now I have to find tickets for next week.

It's tough to say for sure since I'm not a neutral fan in this case, but that one is up there for me with the '06 Rose Bowl for the best damn game I've ever seen.

If my wife wasn't within 10 days of due date for our second, I'd be getting tickets tonight.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Obvious pick leads to a big man TD.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

That should do it for this one.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

I don’t really care that these kids sit out of bowl games but they shouldn’t be making the trip & certainly shouldn’t be on the sidelines if that’s the decision they make.

I am not a fan of these kids sitting out bowl games. Why play at all once you have established yourself as a high draft pick?

Random bowl games are meaningless. When a player sits out the Playoff, they'll have my attention.

But why just sit out the bowl game? If you are a senior and your team is 0-5 why not just call it quits at that point? If you had a great freshman and sophomore year why play at all junior year? Just train somewhere and enter the draft.

would you draft that player?

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I would. Probably a good half round or more later than I otherwise would have since at least 3/4ths of the teams would be scared off because he "doesn't love football." Love me some free value.

Hence why nobody does it.

I would not. I dont want the guy who could stop playing for you when the chips are down sort to speak.
wouldnt even sign him as a undrafted free agent.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

would you draft that player?

Why not? If you get a guy that dominates the first two years and says "f*** it I'm going to just drop out of school and go train somewhere" I would definitely draft him.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Especially the guy that just stops at 0-5 (or whatever). Why wouldn't you?

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

It’s not like players haven’t quit before when their teams seasons went down the drain. They were just still taking the field but playing not to get hurt.

 

[sabremike]

The difference is that the kid has already proven himself with a body of work and playing for free in the Poulin Weed Eater Bowl isn't worth the risk. I don't think any rational NFL exec has a problem with this.
