Kelly might want to get a special teams coach

Can't you also run back a blocked Xtra point kick for 2 points?
Yeah I was watching and I thought, they’re acting like the play is dead but unless they heard a whistle I’m pretty sure it’s not dead. And then the dude picks it up. 

lsu looking ok so far. 7-7. LSU should be winning 10-0 but rules.

I completely disagree.  But just for arguments sake I hope they get in because I want to see how they match up to either UGA, Mich, or whatever the 4th team is.

Going 12-0 vs a soft schedule is not the same as 10-1 vs a difficult schedule.
yeah except TCU had a harder schedule than Ohio State. TCU had the best strength of schedule of every team ranked in the top 5. They played I want to say 6 games vs teams currently ranked in the top 25. I think the next closest was Georgia with 4. 

Ohio State's schedule was not extremely difficult. The B1G was pretty damn bad this year outside of the top 3 teams. Ohio State played 2 really good teams- Michigan and Penn State- and they got their doors blown off at home by 3+ touchdowns by one of those 2 teams- and that team was missing it's best player on offense and best player on defense.

Spare me the oh they played ND in non-con! ND is straight garbage. ND got beat down by that soft no defense playing USC team that just got their doors blown off by Utah. ND lost at home to freaking Marshall and they lost at home to a dreadful 3 win Stanford team. ND has been terrible vs every team that isn't in the ACC. That tells you all you need to know about how truly awful the ACC is.

I am generally against drafting a TE in the top 10 or even 1st rd. I've railed against the Lions for this time and time again. 

I would draft Brock Bowers in the 1st rd and not think twice about it. Guys like him are the exception to that rule.

Georgia getting some crazy luck so far. First the blocked FG where LSU just stands around for UGA player to pick it up and run back untouched. Now that INT? WTF was that helmet bounce INT? Sheesh.

and just like that it's 21-7. Think that's all she wrote folks. UGA defense is too good to surrender a 14 point lead imo. This ain't that USC defense that gave up a 14 point lead only to lose by 30. This a real ass defense.

Wait, what ?  That’s like saying A&M beat 3 top ten teams this season. It may have been technically true but it doesn’t mean much when you finish the season at 5-7. 

There are only two top 25 teams from the Big 12 today other than TCU. Texas and Kansas state, with 4 losses and 3 losses each. Tcu split the two games with KSU, I’d say they’re pretty evenly matched. The rest of the Big 12 is hot garbage this year. 

I’d straight up take ten teams in the top 25 above TCU.

Why not?
Is Michigan still eager to play UGA?

Michigan is eager to play for the natty. That means playing Georgia. So I'd say yes.
