NCAA GDT: Week 5

[Gene Parmesan]

He could play like a Middle Schooler, it probably wouldn't matter. Kansas State is that bad.

They just don't have the athletes.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Tennessee is playing their asses off. Georgia just lacks a punch on offense. Fromm isn't a gamechanger and the backs are too young.

I think I asked last year re: players and transferring, but why is it coaches can bounce around, no hold up, but players generally have to sit out a year?

I'm guessing the NCAA, with their "but the student-athletes!", but CFB is such a big business, and honestly, the top programs and players are likely taking a token attitude to school work, the players likely have to practice a ton too.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Northwestern forgot to cut the grass again lol.

Nevada returned a fumble for a touchdown. They reviewed it and marked them down on the 1 inch line correctly. Next play false start. Next play chop block. Next play pick six the other way.

Probably has to do with school stuff. And the popular narrative is that football players don't care about school but the graduation rate speaks otherwise.

Those kinds of swings just kill covers. My ECU -5 pick is on thin ice right now when they should be up at least 11 points.

Northwestern is up 10-0 and just stoned Michigan on 4th down.

I dunno. Team just lacks explosive athletes.

 

[Canes]

LOL at Michigan. Forever overrated.

Just when things seemed to be settling down, the seat of Jimmy Harbag's khakis is suddenly getting really toasty again.

It's almost like...teams get better.

Wow, NW is beating up on UM, and it's still early in the 2nd quarter.

They beat up on the little sisters of the poor but this has been an awful performance on both sides of the ball.

Unfortunately Tennessee’s offense did not get the memo

Next month or so will be telling. If they don't go on a run here, he's gotta be thinking about the NFL, and Michigan has to be thinking about a lot of other things.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Michigan has life.

Because they are bad.

Tbh I don't know if the suitors would come beating down his door. I think the shine is off of him.

Always been like that. They likely don’t want schools picking off upper class men from other schools. So, they have a requirement for the player should they transfer to sit out a year.

As an 18 year old kid, you really do have to make a choice with your head as much as your heart. Take into account how long the coach has been there, is he likely to be moving up to a bigger program while you are there, and especially if you are a QB what is the depth and talent of the position like. What are the assistants like. And that’s just the football side, not taking into account the academics and your field of study.

#19 for Tennessee has been the best player on the field.

The way OU has looked the last few weeks it feels like a gimme to bet Texas big next week for the upset. I’m guessing OU will be favored by 4-5. Of course my luck it’ll be the week their defense finally shows up
