I think Hunter's value is higher as a CB and part of that is simply because you can draw up a few plays to get him a handful of snaps per game on offense. He definitely won't be a full time both ways player at the NFL level but there's a long history of elite defenders getting some situational snaps on offense. We did it with Peppers. There really isn't with elite offensive players on defense other than putting in receivers deep against hail Marys.

I can't stand Clemson but he's right. If App State is your out of conference "cupcake" then you aren't padding your schedule. Look at some of the teams that ranked teams played this week. #2 Ohio State played Akron. 52-6. #5 Alabama played Western Kentucky. 63-0 #6 Ole Miss played Furman. 76-0. #11 Missouri played Murray State. Beat them 51-0. #22 Kansas played Lindenwood. 48-3. #12 Utah played Southern Utah. 49-0. #16 Oklahoma played Temple. 51-3. #25 Iowa played Illinois State. 40-0. #15 Tennessee played Chattanooga. 69-3 I mean, do people really not realize that most of these week one and week two games are the college equivalent of preseason? There are a handful of intriguing matchups and the rest is just straight up can crushing.

Oh, it'll be hilarious if Clemson loses. Them starting out 0-2 with a loss to App State? Pure pandemonium in Tigerville. LOL

I'd be surprised. Mainly because of that UGA outcome. I would expect the best version of Clemson next week. You don't want to face a team coming off of an absolutely humiliating embarrassment if they're a well led organization. That team is going to be prepared. If they lose to App State, it probably will be time to start talking about whether or not the Dabo era is over. Do I think that means they'll reclaim their former glory? No. I think they'll probably continue their slide back toward what they were pre-Dabo.

Bingo.

It blows my mind that there are legitimately Clemson fans who feel this way. Have they forgotten life before Dabo? I've never seen Dabo as a great coach, but he absolutely is a great program builder and recruiter and that's 90% of the battle on college sports and Clemson fans should have a shrine to the guy in their man caves.

There's a big gap between the legit top 5 teams and the top 20 type teams. I honestly thought Clemson was probably a little overrated at #14 and UGA probably is legit #1. An 11 point spread on a betting line between ranked teams is pretty significant.

I don't think anyone outside the Clemson diehards were surprised by that outcome.

Early season games are largely mismatched schedule filler. It's the preseason of the college schedule.

The ACC just isn't relevant on the national level anymore. I mean, when your uneducated conference champ gets past up for the playoffs that says everything

So electric people had to pretend like he was floating interior talent at Alabama. But yeah, he was a very good college QB. I just always thought it was plainly obvious that he was one of those classic great college football players who just didn't have the talent to translate it to the NFL. They're just different games.

If Bryce had jumped maybe I would've seen him. Camera must have been framed for a QB of normal height.

That's the case for all the elite teams. The talent divide between the haves and the have nots is extreme.

Wow. That UGA INT looked like the game closer Josh Norman had against the Saints. That was some elite poo.

Woodshedding underway. Clemson is getting humiliated.

Clemson just has absolutely nothing to offer UGA, particularly on offense.

If Clemson has anything up their sleeve they better pull it out. Looks like they're about to get taken to the woodshed.

Wouldn't count on it.

Damn. What a catch

Me too, but for different reasons. I see all the physical stuff you want I'm just honestly not that impressed with the player.

UGA made adjustments. We'll see if Clemson did. I think Kirby Smart is hands down the best coach in college football. He might be the new Saban. He's a Saban protege.

Okay, so do Cam Ward.

I don't know if these are two of the absolute best defenses in the country or two of the absolute worst offenses. I'm leaning toward a little bit of both. I don't think these offenses are very good.

We'll see how it pans out over the season. No one would've expected Jayden Daniels to be a top picks. Same with the McCarthy and Penix.

He sucks at throwing slants. Missed a TD on a slant throwing it high and just missed what would've been a 1st down conversion throwing a slant well behind the receiver.
