And what were those matchups? I know I for one put a lot of weight into games like UNC vs. Minnesota in week one to gauge overall conference strength.

I'd extend Moton 2-3 years. Lord knows we should realize that good OTs don't grow on trees.

Mack ruined his legacy. Imagine how different he'd be viewed had he rode off into the sunset and handed a hot up and coming coach Drake Maye. He was hired to put the program back on the right track and be a stop gap to the future. Instead he just lucked into a couple of NFL QBs and then hung around to drag us right back into the gutter. https://www.si.com/college/unc/football/unc-football-recruiting-efforts-look-crumbling-11-24 If he's not willing to retire, fire him. But we have to move on and now we're on a worse spot to land a good coach than we were a couple of years ago when Mack should've logically retired.

I'm not talking about the last 20 years. I'm talking about right now. Today.

Circle back when you get thumped by three scores by a top 5 type of team in the playoffs.

I mean, the ACC is definitely nowhere near as strong as the SEC and Big 10. That's just reality.

Yep. I've been saying all year that Miami is reminiscent of the Howell and Maye Heels teams. Their D sucks but it doesn't suck THAT bad though.

Miami is a pretty mediocre P5 team carried by a #1 overall pick type of QB. Subtract Cam Ward and replace him with Average Joe P5 QB and they have 3 or 4 losses.

People still argue about teams getting snubbed from a 64 team basketball tournament field (sorry, play in games are still play in games in my book). There's always going to be snubs but I feel like a 12 team field is going to include everyone with a legitimate chance to win it all.

I'm just glad he's alright. Anything that looks neck related and has you leaving on a backboard is scary.

There were more ref huddles in our game yesterday than you'd normally see in a full week's worth of games. It was ridiculous.

Mack Brown has backed off that return talk now saying his focus is on State and not the future. If we win he'll be back for sure. A competitive loss and he's probably back. But if we aren't competitive I think he's probably out. So with that said, as hard as this is to say... State PLEASE best the poo out of us. Embarrass us. Taunt. Celebrate. Turn Keenan red. Save us from ourselves!

Three straight is a tremendous stretch. He had a good game yesterday. Let's see what he does going forward.

Zero quality wins and two bad losses. Not even in the conversation.

True. But he probably wasn't even getting drafted as a QB at Bama. Riley turned him into a Heisman contender and a 2nd round pick. He probably fell out of the 1st solely because that Bama tape existed. LOL

Milroe needs to get with Lincoln Riley. He looks just like the Bama version of Jalen Hurts. He looks like a talented athlete who needs to be playing a different position. Riley turned Hurts into a legitimate QB.

The lack of generations of history is fair. That's a very real factor. The whole "transplant city" thing isn't. Every city that is growing substantially is a transplant city. Go out to Denver and try to find somebody who was born and raised in Denver.

Yessir, great white knight. Sorry for bringing up relevant numbers that provide perspective. Sleep tight tonight. You have a long day of defending Bryce's honor ahead of you tomorrow. Want some more relevant numbers? Bryce completed 60% of his passes today, his season average. Legette caught 67% of his targets.

Other posters have posted the numbers. They are what they are. About what I expected. If you looked at the times Legette was open and Bryce just flat out missed in a clean pocket it would probably be a similar number. That's why Leggete's catch rate and Bryce's completion percentages are mirror images of one another.

If Barkley wasn't in the MVP conversation before tonight he's definitely in it after tonight.

It makes me interested to see what he does going forward. Nothing more, nothing less. He had a good game against a good team. Right now that's a massive anomaly in his career. So let's see what happens going forward.

Rookies gonna rookie. Legette looks like he belongs which is all I'm really looking for in a rookie. Which is also a lot more than we could say for Bryce in pretty much all but a small handful of games. And saying "handful" is honestly being generous.

Everything I'm seeing is just speculating that it feels imminent which it does.

Sean McVay has some Mike Shula in him. Bro, your OL is trash. The ball needs to come out fast. But he just keeps dialing up downfield routes.

What you're calling "drops" are contested catches. We either have other guys open that Bryce is missing or Bryce trusts Legette to win. Either way, contested catches are obviously going to have a lower conversion rate. This is what a "drop" looks like
