I just heard a rumor from a pretty good source that is saying bama is going to offer drake maye a million dollar NIL deal to get him there.   Supposedly UNC is losing a ton on offense so it would behoove maye to switch schools.  If he sits out the bowl game then that would be the tell tale sign

That would be hilarious and kill the UNC fanboys, but his family has been a big deal in Chapel Hill for years now, so I wouldn't put much stock in the rumor.

Definitely. Glad LSU and Tennessee lost because they got way too much credit for beating Alabama, a team that could easily be 7-5. Might have been the worst Alabama team in a while and somehow LSU with two losses was knocking on the door for the playoffs. Same with Tennessee last week.

Bama, Clemson, Ohio St.  Could argue they are the weakest versions in a decade.   Those have been the big 3 the last decade.  

Michigan and UGA IMO only look great in the context of this season.    I think they get stomped by top teams of the past decade. 

Pros and cons to parity.  I think it is temporary under the current structure.  I think college football still has a lot of work to do with NIL.  It’s basically pay to play and professional sports currently.  And some programs are really going to take advantage of NIL and the transfer portal in ways we havent seen fully play out yet IMO.   Handful of programs are just going to write checks others can’t keep pace with.

Ohio State and Alabama are a bit of a surprise because they have solid QBs. Clemson has DJ Trash at QB, dude is legit terrible and loses games.

DJ is trash, but more of an impact going forward is Dabo’s refusal to utilize the transfer portal and the promoting coaches from within. His reliance on recruiting kids and developing them is not going to work in this era of college football. 
 

I’ve generally enjoyed Dabo over the past decade or so but his value system doesn’t match up with what college football is turning into. I do not think Dabo will change and I can’t fault him for sticking to what he believes in.  I think Clemson, will continue to do well in the ACC (while it lasts) but likely will not be competing for national championships.

I mean it works if you recruit a super stud QB and he actually pans out.  They have been just a QB short the past two years.    And they probably are in the CFP with just a decent QB the last two years (not even a stud). 
 

He has one of the best prospects on the bench.   A real head scratcher there why he is waiting on using him

Oh I definitely see him transferring.  He has 2 options: Pac-12 to get bonkers awesome inflated stats to hype himself up for the draft or SEC for a legacy run at a title.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      Say you don't understand PFF without saying you don't understand PFF... Every week seems like some of the same people are complaining about something they clearly don't understand.  I'm not saying they are the end all resource out there but once you understand their methodology you can start to appreciate some of their work. For example, their grading system isn't a high school grading system, try to look at some of it in relative terms.  Rico had an 82 rushing grade, that's pretty good.  I would be curious to know how that compares to every other running back this past weekend. Also, I think he had a few penalties, which if I'm not mistaken are graded pretty harshly.

      Can we go back to square one for a minute and remember what we paid for this guy and how he was sold?  He was like, the anti excuse. Makes everybody better, Did we get that?  I think the answer is still coming but so far you might can say that for a game or two.  Cam had issues with personnel every season almost. Horrible OL, but he had receivers. Decent to good OL no receivers. Etc. Bryce needs to stand up, or keep standing up, however you want to put it. It is big boy time in year 3. He doesn’t have to make the playoffs but there is a standard. We’ll see what happens.  But the excuses are just fuging tired.  ps, I mean let’s not crown him when he has franchise record production in two wins,.. let’s see when they stop that, how he does then.

      Where do you draw line top3 or top 5 money then? I wish he goes for a "hometown" deal and doesn't try and reset market but it's going to be tough to argue not paying him BIG MONEY if he continues do be a stabilizing force on the left side of line. DM got some tough decisions to make at the OT position coming up.
