Totally random unfounded prediction: I see two scenarios in this game, we either get blown out by three TDs or we win. nothing in between
I think everyone has watched a bit too much Mystery, Alaska.
Or we get blown out by six touchdowns.
I would love for us to win this game. I want us to win this game. Hell, if things go the right way, I even think we can win this game.
But I don't expect to win this game, and I don't think it's fair to our kids to expect them to win this game. $C is flat better than us. If both teams play to their potential, $C will win, and it won't be close. That's not really a knock on our kids. $C has recruited so much better than us over the past decade that it's almost comical. They have because they can. At our very best, we have to win unlikely recruiting battles, pick up guys that other big-time schools might have missed out on, and have better position coaches to compete at an elite level. And we're far from our best.
Our kids need to come out and compete, play the best game that they can, and hopefully they can catch a few breaks, keep it close, and see if they can pull it out at the end. If they do that, they can pull the huge upset. But as long as they compete and play their best, they can hold their heads up high. I don't think we can ask more than that.
Just don't start the game with an onside kick please. Maybe we should try a squib. Those work well hahahaLimited scholarships and after winning a big game vs Stanford, USC due for a letdown. HCMM should coach this game like he has nothing to lose.

Did you see how pissed Coach Mac was at Neinas after the "onside kick" against Cal? Never seen him so pissed at a coach.....
The wind ?He was pissed at Neinas? I thought he was pissed at Oliver for such a crappy excuse for a squib. I guess it makes more sense to be pissed at Neinas, because I didn't understand why Oliver was squibbing the kick anyway.

One of the things not in our favor is the job Orgeron is doing. My friend, a hard core SC fan, says Orgeron has been doing a heck of a job. He's got the team playing loose and having fun and it is showing on the field. I'm hoping that SC will start playing tighter and begin pressing now that they have a chance at the CCG but I think it's mostly wishful thinking to think that SC will change their profile that much when facing a lowly team like our buffs.
Is your friend Irv Brown? Not sure how some random fan's opinion is in any way legitimate proof that we should be more worried (we are gonna get spanked anyway).
Because there were 60 MPH gusts and the wind kept changing directions
I watched the recording, and saw Mac screaming at Neinas.....looked like Neinas crapped his pants as a result
how weird is it that Sefo was totally unaffected by that wind? Hope he does as well with biting cold.Fortunately the sun has not broken out so the snow we did get is hanging around. That will get the mental aspect of the cold working in our favor. Will it ultimately make a difference in the outcome, maybe not - but I want those Sophomores and Freshmen to remember brutal conditions and a team the kept fighting when they come back two years from now. Wish we could have saved up a bit of that wind from last week too.

Correction: compared to Goff, he wasn't.He was affected. I was standing in the perfect spot where a pass to Spruce completely changed trajectory and went incomplete.
