The OFFICIAL 2018 College football RANDOM THOUGHTS thread

Baseball players don't make the same in endorsements. How many times have you seem Mike Trout in commercials. The MLB had to beg their best player to get out and do more commercials because baseball players aren't really known anymore

They also have a lot of lowkey personalities that don’t actively seek out those opportunities. Kyler would be the most personifiable baseball player the second he got drafted

damn, tua threw 24/27

Maaaaaan I hope LSU rapes UCF by 30 to shut all these fools up

I know ESPN paid billions for this playoffs but their heavy handed promoting of the semifinal game during and around every bowl game is hurting CFB IMO

People said the same thing about Bryce Harper too. I don't see him in commercials that much either. People don't really fukk with baseball like that. The recognizable athletes in America are basketball/football and Tiger Woods

why you say that? like they are marginalizing other bowl games or something to that effect?

@malbaker86 in hindsight, it looks like Mullen was the better fit for UF than Chip.

How are you feeling about the hire after season 1?

You would think that’s obvious to them like it is to us but that doesn’t seem to be the case

Even the other NY6 bowls are only getting half a bar for the majority of the postseason (first time I heard them advertised was about 3 days ago)

I'm liking the hire and appreciate how he's embraced being our coach. He's done just about everything you can as for OFF the field to rebuild the Gator name.

Took me about a week or so after he was hired to realize that Mullen was the better fit and he won't bottom out at UF. Not saying we're destined for tittles , but I'd be hard pressed to predict a bowless season under Mullen.

We're still not title contenders yet, not close imo, that's a good 2-3 more seasons of better recruiting, something he def can stand to improve, and more quality depth along both lines.

Man I had to look it up to even remember who the hell does, UGA, OSU, Texas, and Texas A&M play this bowl season. They're getting NO attention lol

I thought LSU and Michigan were playing up until y’all game yesterday UGA mightve as well been playing nobody, nikkas care more to discuss why they should’ve been in the offs than the game ahead of them

During the BCS era the non chip bowls were heavily promoted and talked about now

Now you have announcers breaking down the semi instead of talking about the bowl game their calling and entire halftimes of bowls dedicated to the semifinals talk

In Hindsight? I told everybody a year ago with foresight



I'll give Chip 3 years to see what he can do though........you lil hoes looked impressive in some games this season. BUT if Chip was as good as he is supposed to be offensively, yall should've had much more improvement than what we saw. Lil Daddy Briles be flipping offenses like it ain't nothing
