@Cheb this one has me incredibly excited for next season. I’m telling you, this kid is the real deal. The best one we’ve ever had.
I mean, not to be negative, but our history of QB play has largely been one of efficiency, not dominance.
And, just like with rookies, I don't give freshmen their flowers before they've played a snap. Let's see how the kid looks under live fire before we make plans to build a statue.

I don’t believe he’ll be at Michigan for four years. He’ll most likely transfer to a team that offers him more NIL. College football is changing; it’s not the same as it used to be. So no statue for him.

Penn State 30
Boise State 17
Texas 34
Arizona State 20
Oregon 38
Ohio State 34
Notre Dame 23
Georgia 16
Penn State 38
Boise 31
Texas 45
ASU 21
Oregon 37
Ohio State 41
Notre Dame 31
Georgia 21
You think Boise is going to put up points like that? I've only watched a handful of PSU this year, and even less Boise, but I don't see that for some reason.

I took the over in a bet is why lol. I think we win handedly, but I never count out an opponent.
Edit: PSU's weakness is the passing attack. They stop the run pretty well. The crossing routes seem to give them trouble. They play down to opponents on a regular basis too.

Jalen Milroe is probably the worst Alabama QB since at least the Saban era. He is a dumbass, a diva and a disaster as a passer and ball handler.

No doubt. He’s complete trash.
Watch somebody trying to talk up his draft stock when he declares for the draft. Anthony Richardson all over again.

I think that’s likely to happen, yes.
Destined for the NFL scout team to pretend he’s Lamar or Jayden Daniels.
Jalen Hurts had similar issues of seeing the field as well when at Bama. But to his credit, the guy has great humility about him and was a true leader that handled being benched for Tua well and was happy to be of service as a backup in relief duties or clutch situations when his running ability was needed. While it surprised me how much Hurts improved as a passer in the NFL, never had a doubt that he is temperamentally suited for the pro game. Milroe on the other hand....

@Navybuc Are you nervous about the Notre Dame-Georgia game?
Nah. I get more nervous with games like USC or Indiana were ND is expected to win and nervous they won’t. The Irish are underdog vs Georgia. Georgia has the more talented players. I am optimistic ND will win but not expecting it. I think it’s a true coin flip.

Boise State isn’t ready to play with the big boys. This is ugly. I like Penn State but how the heck did they get such an easy draw as a 6 seed?
Domino effect of Ohio State losing to Michigan.
I'd also argue Texas' level of competition is weak too.
