I disagree. That O is stacked. The D is talented, but the DC has been an abomination.

I think a lot of you are going to be surprised with how poorly Ward does in the NFL. 

I am never surprised when any college qb does poorly in the NFL.  Any surprise that I have would be reserved for any college qb that actually lives up to his billing.  

That being said, Ward has about as much of a chance as most of the others, ie about 1 in five if you look at qb's picked in the first round.

The O has been poor the last few weeks. Disappeared for 2Q today. Disappeared for a similar amount of time against GT. 

You are one odd duck. Your offense has over 500 yards and you put up 38 points. Your defense blows. It's been that way all year long but you've insisted on putting the blame on your #1 overall caliber QB and the offense that has carried the load for a bad defense.

I honestly wonder if the 12 team playoff field made top teams more complacent this year? Seems like everyone has lost games they just shouldn't have lost.

This whole season feels weird.  There doesn’t seem to be the standard 2-3 stud teams.  I think there I still a top tier but it’s weaker than in the past. 

the middle of the top 25 I feel has better odds vs the top 5 than in years past. 

I and dislike the feel the new playoff system.  Imagine if Clemson wins.  You got the ACC and Big12 making the whole system a joke.   Because you would have 2 teams not in the top 15 taking up multiple spots.

NIL has made things more even in my opinion.  Top players aren’t looking to go to Alabama or Georgia per se, they are looking for the school that’s going to pay them the most money.  In other words, talent isn’t as top heavy anymore

Yep, when someone figures out a foolproof way of projecting QBs to the NFL they'll be very, very rich.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
