That was a helluva play by that LB. Howard did not expect him to be able to make that drop.

Yeah, basketball is a skinny, fit, or slender person's game.

You just need a little more mass than Chet Holmgren.  Don’t wanna be falling down and breaking your hip.  That’s old lady stuff.

What a down year for College QB's lol. They all are horrible aside from Cam and maybe Sanders. 

It's Cam Ward and that's it IMO if you're shopping for a starter. I don't think Sanders is a 1st round talent.

There is a lot of money in being a bad NFL QB in these college games.

Yeah I agree, Sanders had horrible O-line play but he's seriously flawed in other areas physically and emotionally

I do think a lot of guys are going to start realizing there's more value in being a good college QB and cashing NIL checks than jumping early to be a mid to late round pick. And honestly, it'll probably do them good for their NFL careers. If you have the talent to get drafted but you fall to the kid to late rounds you probably could improve your draft position with more college play.

Nice run defense by Texas

Yeah Beck did the math last week and Ewers should probably change his mind and milk another year of NIL before becoming a career backup

Well now you can change schools and make millions doing it.  Easy decision.

Yeah, Ewers has another year of eligibility. I wouldn't blame him for taking the NIL money either.

He made a statement prior to this game that made it sound like he wasn't planning to play college football next year but I don't know. He's a weird case IMO. It's not like he has great physical tools that will make the NFL drool and it's a weak class. He could potentially be QB3 in this class. He'd probably have to balls out next year to be QB3 in next year's class. 

[LinvilleGorge]

Oh wow. He got lucky he didn't throw a pick six on that one

He needs to transfer to the PAC12 but it doesn’t exist lol
