If there is one missing piece to Georgia’s national title last season is they didn’t play Bama. Plus they were 1 and 1 the previous season against them. Don’t get me wrong, Georgia is great. I’m just not ready yet to say Bama is chasing them since the Tide has won three out of four against Georgia with Smart. If Georgia can beat them again, I might be ready to say that.

I think we are starting to see a slight decline with Bama, as was expected, and I won't be shocked to see Sagan just retire at the end of the season.

He may not have known he was going to Alabama. Then, they probably gave him the talk about committing to them, or his spot would be taken. After that, he decided to get his spot and commit. You have to realize a lot of these things are fluid and can change real quick. At the end of the day, these players make decisions that will impact their lives and their future. Another thing could be he was looking around before he decommited and decided that if Bama had a spot for him he would go there.

I'm not mad that he is going to Alabama or that he made the best decision for himself but he decommitted yesterday or Friday and the published piece comes out that he is going to focus on 3 teams moving forward that's the issue I have. So that piece comes out on Saturday by Sunday he goes and commits to Alabama. All I'm saying is that he had to know or that he wasn't really looking at 3 schools when he made that decision to decommit. The bold I'd highlighted it, if that's the case say that then and don't beat around the bush.

It is interesting because UGA won two in a row with a QB they did not want, that they did not offer and that they did not start until an injury.
And face it, OSU had them beat in the playoff.

On the flip side they have busted hard with any QB who was rated highly. And yes OSU was a freak injury to Marvin Jr from a title. After a lot of their own players getting hurt as well.
And morale was the lowest its been at OSU in sometime after that Michigan loss. IIRC some of their fans wanted Day gone. Just goes to show you things in college football can change from week to week

Kirby owes everything to that walk on kid. Which is why he basically let him skip all his classes, fail all his classes and just d!(k around.

probably get a 4th * soon. I don't think Alabama is allowed to have 3*'s on their roster

I know it’s a joke but given Saban’s success that’s probably pretty accurate as to how it should work

It could be true he had a top three. Once he released it Bama could have told him to commit by a certain time or his spot would be taken. Since Bama is an elite school that is tough to turn down he decided to commit. It doesn't matter he focused on three teams and decided to commit. It really has nothing to do with any of us. This player got a very rare opportunity and took it. Good for him. Nebraska will have to recruit a different LB.
