Golding has handled the press conferences well. I wouldn’t call him a premier DC. But he’s decent for SEC standards.Considering he’s had 7 years exp at blue blood coordinator positions, he has the resume for a head coaching job at a job like Ole Miss. I think the make or break thing for him is gonna be recruiting, but Ole Miss is one of the those colleges that punches well above its weight as far as NIL goes so that helps

Franks a great recruiter. That RB room has been loaded since he’s been at LSU

Hattiesburg’s gonna need their golf courses to ban him if they expect him to win there

State opens up -3. This game may just be a matter of who’s more cohesive within the next month. State’s bringing in a new DC and has lost some players to the portal. Not sure what WF’s situation is

Didn’t realize they were 8-4. And Wow what a strange resume. If I were to guess States gonna be around a -5 favorite? We’re not very good. But we’re not lose to a middle-of-the pack ACC team bad

Cignetti took one of the worst P4 programs and turned it into the best team in the country in year 2. Unbelievable

Best resume in football. And they’re playing the hottest team rn. They’ve paid their dues. Keep em in

Southern Miss would be a good spot for Hugh to reset and breathe

Arnett has been in the mix for DC candidates in the SEC. I think he was a solid DC at State. Good hire if true

Good hire for Penn State. Bout time somebody got him out of there

I think we’re 2 years from seeing the best football from Deboer and Grubb. I know they get to field 5 stars everywhere but they all don’t fit the system yet. Something interesting to note, arguably their 3 most important players offensively outside of Ty Simpson all came from Washington. Germie Bernard(4*) , Parker Brailsford(3*) , Josh Cuevas (no stars).

Penn State so far has 2 signees and 0 commits

50-60 new guys sounds pretty realistic for portal heavy teams nowadays

247 has us ranked 25th overall rn? Strange considering there’s only 3 blue chips I have faith in Lebby for getting a good portal class. Gonna be a lot easier to sell this year considering we actually showed signs of life this year

I’m on the unpopular side of opinions regarding that situation. Ole Miss has a legitimate chance at a title if they let him coach the playoffs. So why not? I’m not familiar with a situation like this so I’m not seeing the downsides in letting him finish out. I doubt he threatened Carter. He’s gonna take his players and coaches regardless of what happens

I expected fans to be emotional but man. It’s 2025 and we still get this upset about a guy making a lateral move? Low Tier SEC team to Blueblood program. Anything less than a thank you is kinda selfish

So is the OC spot favoring Judge? I guess there’s no point in sticking around if you’re Weiss

Man Ole Miss looked good. Best offense in the country right now. The QB and Receivers are on another level of timing and execution. Everybody’s worried about where Lanes going, meanwhile he could actually win a national championship with this team

Rivalry Week makes for hard predictions OM -7.5 @ State: I just can’t visualize a scenario where Ole Miss can’t run the ball and control this game. If State wasn’t completely inept defensively I’d take us with all the drama going on. Hoping this to be the best atmosphere all year in Starkville. And that’s a tough task because Arizona State and Texas were electric. But I just can’t pick State to win this game. Ole Miss 28 - State 20 Georgia -13.5 @ Ga Tech: This will look like the Georgia - Miss State game IMO. Ga tech has some ballers on the offensive side of the ball and they will score. But they may be worse off than State defensively. Georgia is one of the hottest teams atm. 42-28 Georgia A&M -2.5 @ Texas: A&M showed they can collapse against Scar. If they collapse against Texas there’s no coming back. Arch is balling right now. It’s hard to go undefeated in this era in the SEC. I think this is that game where A&M stumbles Texas 42 Texas A&M 30 Bama -5.5 @ Auburn: this has black magic written all over it. Auburn has the talent to win this game. They’re better off with Duece Knight but I think Daniel’s is starting. That hurts them. I think Bama stays down in this game until the 4th and come back to win 24-17 Vandy @ Tenn -2.5: this is the toughest game to pick IMO. Expect a shootout. Give me Tenn 42 Vandy 35 LSU @ OU -10.5: MVB has been struggling and now he’s facing arguably a top 3 defense. Don’t see a path of victory for LSU here. OU 24 - LSU 10 Ohio State -9.5 @ Michigan: This game is always one of the strangest. I think Ryan Day lets his ego get involved and plays into Michigans style of play. If he would just turn this into a track meet I think he wins last years game and dominates this one. Michigan will not score 20 on this defense. I can’t pick against Ohio State this year. Ohio State 30- Michigan 14

Having 2010s Big 12 flashbacks

Last year was just a matter of disaster on the offensive side. Injuries + Jackson Arnold + Bad OC hire. Moving forward OU should contend just about every year

Can’t believe Lane & grown up Bobby Hill were able to go for 400+ on OU’s defense. Venables is a mastermind

As far as week 13 goes. We have a very rare instance in which the Big 10 actually has a meaningful game this year : Indiana - Oregon Mich - OSU next week. But now we have USC @ Oregon -10.5. Haven’t seen either team play this year. Hoping Oregon eliminates USC from playoff contention so another SEC team can get in. Oregon 30 - USC 15 - 6.5 Oklahoma - Mizzou. OU shuts down Ahmad Hardy and wins 24-9 Tennessee -3.5 at Florida. This is a suspect line. Vegas must know something. Give me Florida 35-28 Arkansas at Texas -9.5. The rivalry’s back. Arkansas keeps this game close but Texas wins in a shootout. Texas 45- Ark 38 Upset of the week: Kentucky beats Vandy 17-14 and ends Vandy playoff hopes

I think Lane genuinely doesn’t know what to do. We gotta remember he’s human too with more pressure on him than 99% of the population can even comprehend. One of his former players told me he’s a little neurodivergent so he may not fully understand how he’s appearing to the public about this situation haha

I think a win vs Auburn clinches a spot for them. There’s no way to overlook their resume for 3 losses.
