Hell yeah, relitigating the Barrett era!

The best Orange Bowl thread we could ask for.

yeah, I agree with you. The fact that Urban recruited him tells you that Urban can spot raw talent. Burrow was not some highly touted recruit or a raw but talented project with insane physical skills. He was a run of the mill, barely 4* QB recruit. Like say, Cade McNamara.
He threw for 11,400 yds in HS,Gatorade Player of the Year & Mr Football in the State so ya - run of the millish.But MDot let's focus on what we can do to get  Cade and Jeem a National Championship because JJ sure as hell isn't going to get the chance 😎

Urban fingers women not his wife in his own bar with camera's rolling while he's in the act.
Well we were just saying he had an eye for "talent"...

I mean, I think we had this talk a bunch of times, and it usually ends with you dog cussing me. We know where each other stands, I think. (I am a little confused. I thought your take was for Burrow to play in 2016, as a redshirt, or Haskins to play in 2017, as a redshirt. Are we arguing Burrow should've played in 2015?)

It seems as if UGA has almost no chance of winning this one.

yeah I don't know what you're reading but i haven't seen anyone saying that. they definitely have a chance. a great chance. to me it's a pick 'em- which is all i've said this entire thread even when i go on one of my stupid rants. Georgia was made out by ESPN/sports media to be the "GRAYTUST DEFUNSE EEVVVVEERRRRR" and a shoe-in to win the national championship and were 8 point favorites over Alabama I believe. Whoops. Georgia is a good team- but nowhere close to that hype. 

And that line vs Michigan is absurd to me. This looks like two pretty close teams to me and one is peaking while the other is reeling from a bad ass-whooping, and to me it's a complete toss-up, pick 'em with either side getting 2 or 3 points.

You're comparing apples to oranges. Ohio State was literally his only P5 offer. He was a fringe 4* recruit. JJ was a very high profile 5* 'croot with P5 offers from everyone. JT was an entrenched starter who had been putting up huge stats and winning lotta ball games. Cade wasn't the stater last year- Joe Milton was- and Cade barely beat out JJ in fall camp this year.

Cade is not putting up those kind of numbers that JT Barrett was and he's nowhere near that kind of player- he does not belong in the same conversation as JT Barret- Cade is barely above 2,400 passing yards and has 15 TD passes in 13 games for christ sake. He wasn't an entrenched starter- god awful Joe Milton was starting ahead of Cade last year- and the only reason Cade ever got on the field last year was because Milton was so bad. Cade barely beat JJ out in fall camp, and they've taken Cade off the field to play JJ in every single game this year.

this actually surprises me. I have seen most people picking Georgia and Georgia are -8 point favorites right now.

No for '16,and yes we have and that wasn't my intent,if i dog cussed you it's prolly because of the little yapping jackel in the background.Mdot was discussing McNamera and McCarthy I was pointing out similarities with the some times underwelming play in C-Bus.Gator guy couldn't contain himself before plunging into his usual lack of tack barking bombast,popping off, stirring things up.Mdot is adament JJ should get more snaps which he may have some traction. I pointed out the same,but at that time in '16 this was discussed on the old board and Home boards, long before Orange gator guy chimed in with his unsolicited carnival barking.Yes let's move on umolested at this moment from mayhem

Depends on momentum and intensity this could ebb/flo.Dawgs could come out hot and M - flat.If they were to play this week after the recent results,gun to my head I'd take crazy Jeem even if he plays McNamera :D J/K Mdot,thought i'd give you a bone

I think coaches typically go with upperclassmen, they typically go for the guy with more experience and with the guy who knows the system better, and who they feel like has less risk in turning the ball over. this is pretty par for the course shit.

McNamara is also a leader on that team. And leadership can't be discounted. While I don't think he's a high level player, he isn't god awful like say Joe Milton- and he does not turn the ball over very much- and he's a bonafide leader in that locker-room. It is what it is. This is Cade's team this year. Next year it'll be JJ's.
