tell ya what I'd take that Tech QB right about now. Kid grew up in Ann Arbor and his pops coached at Michigan for 20 years. Shame he didn't wind up a Wolverine.

GY triple option looks a little loose this far, even when it works.  Funny, I've seen it look better when not working.

After getting my first look at Tech's QB, this probably goes badly.
I was incorrect.

Man, if Tennessee played Tech without that magical extra time to prepare, the Jackets might've had 1,000 yards.

rtf4 says it's that time of the year when TAMU pretends they are a top 5 team for the first 5 weeks.  
guess they decided to go ahead and get the collapse out of the way in the first 4... quarters.

I guess one of the regents already came out and said Sumlin should be fired.

Oh boy.

Who does the regent think will come there?

I really want to see the Badgers accelerate his departure from FAU first.

According to Bamaonline:
Alabama outside linebackers Christian Miller and Terrell Lewis are expected to miss the rest of the 2017 season, BamaOnLine has learned. AL.com's Matt Zenitz was first to report.


Miller, a redshirt junior, was listed as the team's starting Sam linebacker on the Tide's preseason depth chart. Lewis, a sophomore, was expected to make a significant contribution.


Evidently there was some hitting going on

bama had 5 lb's get hurt. 2 out for season, 2 out for 2-4 weeks, and 1 is day to day. good news for bama is lb is loaded, even by bama standards.
some major hitting going on.

This is going to sound like sour grapes but hopefully I've built enough equity on here that people will know it isn't.  Jackson played well but the jury should still be out on him.

Almost every big pass play Tech hit came off a blown assignment or an overreaction to a PA fake or pump and go off a bubble screen look or something like that.  WVU gambles and guesses a lot and when it works it looks good. When it doesn't you have receivers running 10-15 yards behind the nearest defender.  Even the nice runs he made were off fakes in the zone read game where big lanes opened up.

He was poised and didn't make any major mistakes. He played well but while Grier was going through read progressions and throwing darts into tight windows Jackson was throwing lollipops to his primary reads who were wide open due to play design, blown assignments, or both.  Jackson might end up being a great college QB but he didn't need to be great to make the plays available to him Sunday night.

I saw that, but the FSU QB's injury hogged up all the headlines Sunday morning.  Clemson can cement itself as the ACC favorite if it beats Auburn at home this weekend.
And yes, Bama should be fine.  The defense looks as strong as ever (you can place a team full of All Americans on offense - heck, maybe even mix in some NFL journeymen in there - and they still won't be able to run the ball on the Bama front 7).  Florida State did put up much more of a fight than the final score would indicate, as they kept the Bama O in check, but you just can't give them short field after short field after short field and expect the D to hold each and every time).
And FWIW, Damien Harris is Bama's best back.  Bo S. is good, but he's not Derrick Henry.
