    Not jumping ship 🚢 but it’s hard to be positive

    Are you talking about Clark Lee I thought from the beginning of the season I was kind of hoping that’s where Jerry kill would come in and help him

    Pavia didn’t really try to run that is what happened.

    At least y’all still have baseball

    Do we have a chance in Columbia?

    Look, GSU’s quarterback and his receivers are top players. The quarterback is a 4-star QB that used to be the backup at Penn State and later Pitt.

    This host mentioned some important things. Georgia is a talent-rich state because football is almost a religion here.

    GSU played Georgia Tech a lot stronger than the score reflected. Various announcers noticed. It was also a home game for GT. The crowd was small, but, it was pro Panthers.

    GSU has always been hungry against SEC teams. Had it not been for a glaringly bad call, they might have beaten Auburn.

    This GSU team is one of the best I have seen. The other solid one was the one that beat Tennessee.

    It is also important to note, in defense of Vandy, that a set of strange things happened that gave GSU just enough of an edge to win. Yes, success on the field bred confidence. But, the refs might have played a role, too.

    I was most shocked by the final drive. Again, GSU’s QB and receivers are simply, at minimum, solid…possibly slightly above average from time to time.

    I think Vandy made a good comeback at the end. However, I believe clock manager is what lost the game for them. using those time outs to fast gave Georgia enough time to comeback. Just my opinion.

    Chris Marv, but is he ready?

    Also not a bye week but we know that secretly your mind is on the bulldogs, Corey. Lol. Good job on the show regardless

    The refs were awful. The roughing the passer was completely unnecessary. If he’s gonna hold on to the ball that long he’s gonna get hit. Missed a face mask on pavia that the crowd saw from the other sideline. Ejected CJ Taylor for no reason.

    I’m not blaming the loss on the refs but in a game this close that stuff adds up.

    Kolbey Taylor reminded me of Will Shep last year, just looked demoralized and like he didn’t want to be there.

    I think the play calling was trying to protect Pavia, which I get, but by the time they let him play it was too late.

    I don’t know what to make of this team now
