Let’s go…Elon?
Duke has never intentionally injured an Appalachian quarterback.
Have they ever tried to play App though?

Probably not, but fElon is on my permanent shit list.

Clemson is getting boat-raced right now. I know we don't have Georgia's defense in any way, shape or form, but their offense has looked abysmal today.

The gap’s between the different levels of teams is really unfair. We have folks who think some infusion of money in Boone will transform us into a top 10 team. It’s now more impossible then ever before. Just let those 20 semi pro teams become something other than college football and let the other 110 have real games. I’m sure Clemson is otherwise pretty good but this is ridiculous.

What they have created at UGA these past few years is like nothing we've seen in regard to building a semi-pro program. They may lose somewhere from dumb mistakes, but they could also run the table. It's just nuts.

I'm anxious to see how we match up with Clemson next week. Will be interesting compared to what they looked like against UGA today

If they could just graduate more than 41% of their football players. But I guess that’s not what it’s about anymore.

I really have to wonder how much effort some of the highly paid NIL guys are actually putting into college academics. We all know most of this aspect has been a joke for decades but now it’s got to be much worse.
Pay a 20 year old 6 figures to play ball and expect him to take studying seriously? What is the absolute minimum course load a football player can take?

You make good points but the article I read earlier said Clemson graduates 99% of football players according to stats released earlier this year. Regardless, 41% is embarrassing.

Maybe the TE is open. WRs seem to be closely covered for the most part.
