The OFFICIAL 2017 College football RANDOM THOUGHTS thread

Sounds like the rumors of him flipping to osu before signing day could be true...

Michigan's Peppers popped for failed drug test at NFL combine

Sounds like another school has the issues with players and drugs.

Looks like I whiffed on my top 10 games I forgot all about Bama vs Ole Piss so out of the 10 I listed I'm not sure who is out

Ya know, one thing that's underrated about Alabama under Saban is the ability to either come back and win or either come back and not get blown out.

Just based off my memory, the double digit comebacks:

2007: Down 0-17 to LSU, came back but lost 34-41.

2009: Down 0-14 to Auburn, came back to win 26-21.

2010: Down 7-20 to Arkansas, came back to win 24-20.

2012: Down 0-20 to Texas A&M, came back but lost 24-29.

2013: Down 0-14 to Texas A&M, came back to win 49-42.

2014: Down 21-33 to Auburn, came back to win 55-44.

2015: Down 10-30 to Ole Miss, came back but lost 37-43.

2016: Down 3-24 to Ole Miss, came back to win 48-43.

A lot of rumors about this kid having a major drug problem. USC told him to kick rocks, and Bama wouldn't take him.

Drug problem? Weed?

2016 Clemson

5 blown leads, 6 comebacks

That Clemson comeback was so similar to the 2010 Auburn came, Watson was getting beat up in the first half similar to how Cam did, and then in the 2nd half, he turned into a guy that should've won the Heisman Trophy. When Jalen scored that late TD, I was happy then the happiness immediately turned to "oh shyt we finna lose" because that Clemson O was hot.

I read thats your best commit since 2011 at qb

Didnt realize it was a big deal like that

Mcelwain starting to turn up recruiting?

Gators used to always have studs at QB's no matter who the coach was

Terry Dean
Danny W
Eric Kresser
Doug Johnson
Sexy Rexy
Jesse Palmer
Croc Berlin
Chris Leak
Tim Tebow

This is why I don't understand why they can't get a good QB. Surprised there are no really good QB's saying shyt this is an opportunity to start since their QB's are trash. I guess some of them are waking up. Dude dropped USC to go there. I think is a smart move because UF has way more talent across the board.

It's more of some of these QB's getting smarter and looking at golden opportunities. QB is the real only weak link at UF. If they get a really good one, they are contenders.

He on that yayo like Malik Henry? What a friggin waste. UF better get safety valve. Don't put all your eggs in one basket if this is true.
