TCU’s complete lack of a pass rush seems like the biggest reason this got out of hand so quickly.

Duggan hasn’t played that great either.

Outside of Bowers, UGA’s skill talent isn’t anything special. Bennett doesn’t get nearly enough respect.

I don't think we're discussing the same issue, Phil. I don't doubt the quality of your shop's work.
no - we are questioning the SECs brotherhood vs true college football fans on THEIR team.... I'm not going to root for Purdue, Mechicken, or Boston College.... but any $EC team will chant $EC for any team in the conference when they are last in the either division because they ride on the coattails of their own teams which is petty... very petty.

Looked at Twitter... saw "Notre Dame" trending...
Thought maybe we'd picked up another transfer.
Uhm. Nope.
Comparos to our 2013 drubbing by Bama

The final score will obviously look worse, but at least TCU scored when the game was still hanging in the balance.

The south does football better than anyone else. Taking pride in regional superiority at something is human nature. It’s in our DNA to engage in tribalism.

It is no different than someone from Chicago telling someone from Charlotte they don’t know shit about dogs, beefs or pizza.

Yeah that ‘Chicago Pizza’ chant that every the mid westerner belts out over two pizza joints in Chicago that outspend every other pizza joint in the country is equally annoying

For real though, you have NEVER watched a game ND wasn’t playing in, and actually cared about the outcome? Because if you have, you were rooting for another team.

I know the whole "SEC! SEC!" thing seems nonsensical to most, but I can tell you exactly what it's about. The attitude is, "I may be the 'Xth' best team in my conference, but that's about two levels above being the 'Xth' best team in any other conference." Right or wrong, that's most of the mentality behind it.

I will, when they play USC, Michigan, Florida State, or Ohio State. Those 4 are to me what the SEC is to you.

Why???? I don't get it brother..... Why worry than any other team than the Irish?

WHO cares who plays the Irish opponents or their conference(s)?????

I don't get it....

Ach! I can't go with that approach. I'm pulling for Georgia tonight. Kirby, having been our DC for years, is like family. I'd MUCH rather Georgia win it than TCU. That's like preferring your brother or cousin to win an award instead of a complete stranger. There are also lots of times when I'm watching a game where I pull for one team over another even if my own alma mater isn't involved. I'll almost always pull for ND or for whoever is playing a team I dislike and have no respect for... here's looking at you Miami or Oregon or a few others.

You said it’s like anywhere else tho,…. Except,….. the above is not like anywhere else,… pirate fans don’t talk trash when the cards win a WS

Imagine flying from Texas to LA, paying insane hotel rates for multiple days and buying a $1,500 ticket to watch Georgia do a Bane to your team on national television.

Kirby could safely pull his team and show some mercy by putting some of the tuba and sax players, plus a couple of cheerleaders, in the game. I know he's playing backups and emptying the bench, but dayummmm, this is getting ugly. Those TCU kids got mamas & daddies and folks that love them. They don't need to be seeing this.

Really remarkable how bad TCU's defense has been all night. I guess they forced one punt, and held Georgia to a field goal once, but it feels like Georgia gets a first down every snap.

Probably shoulda seen this coming when they couldn’t stop Michigan from scoring either.

Again- you are doing an SEC thing but Kirby is now an opponent but... he's SEC..... seriously - hypocritical

Dugan has been remarkably bad for me,… I’ve watched him enough to know he’s had a terrible night

I think playing two straight physical football games absolutely killed TCU. Yet another reason why the playoff will only result in the same top schools. Only the elite of the elite can get up in consecutive weeks for top talent.

I can't imagine losing a meaningful game by 50+.

Truly wild.
This is what happens when you rank teams based entirely on resume, stats, or how "deserving" they are instead of how well they actually play and how you think they'd fare against other teams. TCU was never one of the best 4 teams in the country and hardly a single knowledgeable fan or analyst truly believed they were.

Is it remarkable, though. TCU had the #78 ranking in total defense coming into this game. They had no business being anywhere near a college playoff. When SMU scores 34, OK St. scores 40, Kansas and WVU score 31 on you, what do you think Georgia is gonna do?
