Gonna be a hell of a game against Georgia in Austin next week. 
UGA got burned repeatedly on long passes by a freshman QB yesterday.  Guys were really open, and he over threw them a few times.

I've definitely been surprised by UGA's defense the past couple of games.  I expect them to play much better in Austin.

I do have to wonder what will come of this-- I saw this live yesterday and couldn't believe my eyes:
:o That QB handled it well Kirby should have been slapped with 15yds and a 1st down maybe even shown the door for blindsiding & striking him. It wasn't like Smart didn't see him. Even the ref gave him a double take I guess he was "displeased" with the DC or who ever that was he was approaching

They showed the Kirby "push" in replay, and it didn't look like anything, to me, he was trying to get to a UGA player or coach and didn't see the QB, or so it looked.

I think he's used to pushing people out of his way in a game, they usually are other coaches or players.  He thinks he's a safety.

Kirby Smart Doesn’t Remember Shoving Mississippi State QB In Fourth Quarter | OutKick

"I think I was going after Schumann," Kirby Smart said postgame. "I was trying to get Schumann's attention. We were trying to change personnel. I think it's the play they came over to our sideline. And I'm trying to get Schumann's attention. But, no, I don’t really remember it."

During the Mississippi State media availability, Michael Van Buren was just as confused.
"I'm not sure what that was. I was must trying to play my game. I didn’t really see it," Van Buren said postgame.
Either way, this was not a good look for the Georgia head coach, even if he was just caught-up in the moment during the game.
Officials did not see the play, and no flag was thrown. We will see if the SEC has anything to say.

Lost in everything else, Vandy beat Kentucky on the road, 20-13.  UGA beat UK 13-12.  Vandy is now 4-2, I think I undermisestinated them last week.

They face Ball State next week and then Texas Auburn USCe LSU Tenn.  They probably will make a bowl game and have a decent shot at 7-5, and then lose their coach.

Upon further review - is Kirby out of eligibility? If not the Buckeye defense could use a hitter like him

I think you're a little quick to dismiss it.  He didn't just lay hands on a student, he shoved him pretty hard. A kid from the OTHER team.  That's a really big no-no. It's really irrelevant whether or not he remembers it or did it with intent to injure.  In fact to me it's worse that he had so little regard for those around him that he d id such a thing mindlessly.

If this were a college prof he'd be immediately suspended and possibly fired.

Well, I don't think anything will come of it, I could be wrong.  I think it was inadvertent, and motive matters.  He could apologize.  I don't think any punishment is forthcoming.

Had it been the other coach pushing our QB I would think the same thing.

The QB certainly took a lot more punishment by playing than with this push.

Yes, you've already dismissed it out of hand once, we all understand your position.

I agree probably nothing will come of it.  I don't agree that it's not a big deal.  Woody Hayes approves.

Well, classes aren't held on football fields, so...

Smart is obviously on the way to someone and pushed not knowing or caring who it was.  You could say that aspect is bad or not okay, but I think it's clear he didn't do it because it's the opposing QB.
