Likely NCAA rule change next year regarding overtime.

If still tied after two possessions the teams to engage in a 2 point shootout.
The goal is to prevent long overtimes.

Wonder if that would work with me and Stevo?
Well, since you have never even tied Whiskeypriest it is a moot point.

Of course you're right.


In a blind squirrel sort of way.

I never understood what was wrong with ties.

Some schools I could name would deliberately play for them to advance their National Title aspirations in an underhanded way.

I don't think it was underhanded as such.  it is just playing towards a purpose.

Or playing smart. Which is kinda the reason for going to college. ;-)

What happened to everyone on NSD?  Lost interest?

I'll take Kyle Ford over Bru McCoy anyday.  Texas can deal with that Prima Donna.   We're making a move toward substance over flash.  (You say those kinds of things when your class ranking takes a nose dive)

https://n.rivals.com/news/georgia-seizes-the-day-wins-second-straight-recruiting-title



To me it looks like Bama is the clear winner here. Both have 3 five star. Bama has 21 four star and Georgia only 15. Georgia has 5 three star and Bama 3 three star. Add it up do the math. There is no way Georgia comes out on top here. Go in and add the individual points each player has and again, there is no way IMO Georgia comes out on top. Close yes, but no cigar.

https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/national-signing-day-2019-college-football-recruiting-rankings-key-commitments-and-moments/

CBS's take on the final results with some key signings:


DE Khris Bogle (71): Committed to Florida

DB Christian Williams (160): Committed To Miami
WR George Pickens (24): Flipped to Georgia from Auburn
OG Doug Nester (106): Committed to Virginia Tech

DE Charles Moore (69): Committed to Auburn

RB Jerrion Ealy (29): Committed to Ole Miss
WR Mark-Antony Richards (90): Committed to Auburn
OG Enokk Vimahi (124): Committed to Ohio State
DB Kaiir Elam (48): Committed to Florida

ATH Devonta Lee (166): Committed to LSU
DT Ishmael Sopsher (47): Committed to Alabama
DT Jaquaze Sorrells (157): Committed to South Carolina
LB Daniel Heimuli (199): Committed to Washington
LB Henry To'oto'o (44): Committed to Tennessee



Dan Mullen has done very well with his first full season of recruiting. The biggest surprise to me was wresting in-state DE Khris Bogle the #71 away from Nick Saban. Mullen's overall class was a surprising( to some ) #9 on the team list. Bogle needs to get stronger at the point of attack IMO, but the speed and agility are already there. Diwun Black is going to be a good one for sure. Looked like a man among boys last year. Elam and Steele are of course special players. Impressed with Diabate and he'll need a year to put on some muscle just like Bogle. More later, I'm all footballed out. Need some down time.

Bunch of 3s, two 4s - both from the same HS. A QB with the great name of Payton Thorne, who I will begin touring for the Heisman shortly. 30ish nationally. The usual.
