    I've been off the thread for a while and, well, this college football season is going to be weird.

    Yes. Preventing any team from crossing the 50 is awful defense. Allowing only 3 passing touchdowns last year is embarrassing...

    Busted CV boots and lots of squeaks.
    Anybody else see the Iowa Hawkeyes thing with the children's hospital?

    I thought that was/is a pretty cool deal.

    We'll have to see if Fromm lights up our weak deep defense and if Chubb and Michel will shred our defensive front.
    Vegas is giving you guys a touchdown.
    Tempted to bet?

    Whaaaat? Last I saw, we were 4 point favorites, and that was before Eason went down.

    I have one friend who went to TAMU. He's a realistic fan, but it was still tough to watch the game with him last night. How the hell do you blow a 34 point lead late in the 3rd quarter? Why. the. hell. didn't TAMU just run the damn clock?

    Also... GA Tech is only up by a touchdown, but they're whoopin' the hell out of Tennessee and it's been quite enjoyable.

    Honest opinion, what do you make of the 2?

    I really like Fromm, hate that it happened like this and hate to think that Eason could lose his job due to an injury. But if Fromm should lead us to a win in South Bend and beyond Eason may just be in trouble imo.
    They got them as 6.5 point favorite now.

    Don't talk to us about blowing leads and just running the clock. :anonymous:

    Fair.

    If Bo hadn't gone down.....

    But also... I can't imagine Alabama ever blowing a 34 point lead. Can you?

    As far as UT goes I think Butch will likely be looking for work at the end of the year.

    I hope not. I hope they keep the King of the Life Champions for a long, long time.

    Fromm may be the better QB...next year. I find it hard to believe he's going to come in and be that much better than Eason after Eason has a year of experience and an extra year of the playbook under his belt.

    If you have a better O line last year, I think Eason looks like a totally different QB. It's hard to read the D and read progressions when you have 2 seconds to throw the ball.

    I liked what I saw from Fromm...but it was App state. I hope the kid is fantastic in Eason's stead, and I think they'll probably split time in the UT game, but I don't think he'll supplant him.....this year.

    I love watching UT lose. I HATE NATS, but I'm at the Ga/Tn line, so I have to deal with all the obnoxious orange all the time, so I really want to see them lose. And Butchy gives a lot of material to make fun of...soooo....

    Can somebody explain the trashcan that is being held up on the Tennessee sideline?

    Are they finally admitting that they're trash? Is that their new mascot, Trashy the Trash Can?

    But he had time to throw, especially on the the play he got hurt on. I was yelling for him to throw it or take off one rather than just hold it that long. He just seems indecisive and antsy early. He was the same way in the spring game. So I don't doubt he would've started playing better had he not got hurt but in this game you can't start slow like that most of the time. That was playing right into App States hands the way it was going.

    I do feel like they'll be splitting time when Eason comes back now.
