Game Thread: TCU vs Georgia

I agree, would have given up 45 by the half
Michigans Offense gave up 14 pts for starters. They also shot themselves in the foot twice on the goal line. That’s a 28 pt swing. Michigan beat Michigan.
But agree Georgia is great on both sides of the ball. It just so happens their Defense is shutting down an Offense that we all called great a week ago.
Some years there is more than one good team
This year isn't one of them
If Ohio St didn't have a crappy secondary we might not be be sitting through this slop
What a great game. Let's expand to 12 and get more games like this. LOL!
They gave up 14 and TCU scored 37 which is nothing to sneeze at.
Why is it only viewed as Michigan shoots themselves in the foot and not TCU made plays on defense against an offense that was generally one dimensional most of the year. If Michigan’s offense was more diverse and comfortable both passing and running all year maybe they don’t make those mistakes. UGA’s offense is versatile and you see they use tempo too unlike Michigan and make TCU play on their heels defensively.
Gee, an offense that actually throws the ball to the TE instead of slamming him up the middle on predictable no-gain runs.
Georgia is small time. Have they run the wildcat yet? :)
Most people thought the semis were going to be blowouts too with Michigan easily beating TCU and UGA easily beating OSU. Instead we got the two best semis we’ve ever gotten in the CFP era.
Not all playoff matchups will be such big mismatches. Some will be and some won’t be. You’ll get good games and bad ones. The same teams may end up winning it all but that’s not the point. The point is to give more opportunity to more schools and allow them to move up the ladder and improve themselves and their profiles when they’re able to get into the playoffs, especially if they can do it multiple times.
GA only beat OSU 42-41
I didn't see Michigan vs TCU but assumed they must be good
Ohio St could wipe the floor with TCU (that is if OSUs DBs didn't trip over their own feet lol)

I think TCU coaches did not have their team prepared for what they might see
TCU looked lost early and GA punched them in the mouth
When a football team gets blasted hard early they can often just wilt (see RU vs UConn 2011).
Not me. Simply not enough competition. The only way this changes in any meaningful way is to reduce scholarships from 85 to maybe 55-60, so that the talent is spread out much more and not concentrated among the top teams. Will also help with Title IX challenges. NFL-style revenue sharing would also help eliminate the rich vs. the poor disparity, especially in the NIL world we live in now. But not holding my breath on either of these changes.
This game is a wreck.
Knocking the scholarships down to 55-60 would be attacked on a different rich vs. poor basis.
UGA kicker just missed a PAT.
Think his leg may be done for the night - gotten a lot of use tonight

UGA only needed 2 possession on offense to score enough for the victory. Their defense is dominating
Or (never gonna happen), top 100 or 200 recruits go to the bottom teams in P5 conferences; make it like the NFL draft where worst teams get pick of best players.
I'm prepared to be laughed out of the room and berated.

I know several people in the South, including Georgia, that were pulling for TCU. Georgia Tech fans not Dawg fans.
Why would you want revenue sharing?
We are in the 1% with Big Ten conference revenue distribution.
We lose money with further revenue sharing in CFB.
Schools like Syracuse and Temple would get extra money.
Note - completely agree that sharing of media revenue is the true silver bullet to a more competitive CFB landscape. Even if just among the P5 conferences.
Like father, like son. At least Saban hasn't chopped off his hand.
Must be nice to have a kicker whose leg is sore from kicking extra points instead of punting.
