    Genuinely can’t tell if this is a matchup of two good teams or two bad teams, like the signs point to both

    Sark: We gotta play better to beat Alabama.

    Me: No duh.

    Me drinking burnt-orange kool-aid: Nah, we’re gonna be wearing the icy white away unis, we’ll be fine

    Jesus, Brian Kelly is going to straight up murder his receiving corps after tonight.

    I’ve always thought announcers are a little too hard on receivers, possibly because there are so many old QBs in the booth.

    There’s a lot of “maybe not a perfect ball but you have to catch that!” when the replay actually shows the ball on his wrong shoulder, or behind him while the route has him sprinting, or the poor kid is completely screened by a closing defender on an underthrown ball. A lot of times it was a miracle the receiver got a hand on it at all, but as soon as he does it becomes his fault.

      And to that point, it’s maybe not the receivers Kelly will murder, but the entire defense. They’re cooked.

    They’re acting like that interview was live but you could see refs hanging around on the field behind him lol. And a HC would never not be watching the game

    First ranked vs ranked matchup of the year!

    I’m excited for this game. I always am so football-starved by the time week 0 hits thay I dive in and end up watching a lot of blowouts since most teams schedule cupcakes for the first week (which is fine, that’s how it works). So I plan to really savor this game. But I’ve probably jinxed it and now it’ll also be a blowout.

    I’m still not used to seeing BK wearing LSU gear. But I’m not part of the Tiger fay-muh-lee so I don’t see shots of him on the sideline that much
