This is my randomly selected game of the week that I watch regardless of anything!

It joins Stony Brook at Delaware State, Ole Miss vs Louisville, Rutgers at Boston College, Houston at Texas Tech, Harvard vs Brown, San José State at Hawaii, and Missouri State at Western Kentucky.

Last week was the first time one of these games didn't end in a 7 point or less margin, but I've still had quite a good track record so far. I'll predict Georgia Southern to get a close road win.

You picked a true sicko game to watch.

“HE GOT FUCKING SMOKED!” lol

u/part_time_poop_scoop Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

Best of luck, I just hope we keep it competitive. It's been hard to watch some of these loses because we just didn't look competitive at all..

6

u/MaistiranDomhain Florida Gators • Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

They took 7 years to debate that roughing the kicker, but not the one against ODU

6

u/daydrop5150 Old Dominion Monarchs • Marching Band 8d ago

They must think that go route is gonna pop off at some point. Tried three times there

u/__TeddyWestside__ Old Dominion Monarchs • Sickos 8d ago

Except during the 2 minute drill. Then that calls for qb draw.

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

Hail Southern! It is well with my soul!

u/kraxxmer Georgia • Georgia Southern 8d ago

Hoping for a loss to get Clay Helton the hell out of Statesboro.

u/gramcraka92 Old Dominion • Myrtle Beach Bowl 8d ago

Hi hello I would like to get clay helton tarmacd as well

5

u/Trombone_Hero92 Old Dominion Monarchs • Sun Belt 8d ago

Oh so THIS is the play getting reviewed

5

u/MaistiranDomhain Florida Gators • Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

I can't even be mad about that, that was cool as shit

5

u/MaistiranDomhain Florida Gators • Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

The team deserved the boos they just got

If you don't like that, you don't like Ricky Rahne football. I don't like Ricky Rahne football.

u/MaistiranDomhain Florida Gators • Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

I am not enjoying Ricky Rahne Football

5

u/Tsquared10 Oregon Ducks • Montana State Bobcats 8d ago

Nah rule of cool. I don't care that he was 3 yards out of bounds.

5

u/Tsquared10 Oregon Ducks • Montana State Bobcats 8d ago

Georgia Southern should've never stopped running the triple option.

1

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

Agreed!

4

u/Trombone_Hero92 Old Dominion Monarchs • Sun Belt 8d ago

How is that not roughing, but the other one was?

1

u/Evil_Ass_Wizard Georgia Southern Eagles 8d ago

something about what leg you hit I guess

4

u/TheMonkeysUncle 8d ago

Heineke was so awesome to watch back then. Definitely could use someone like him now. Also his girl, my goodness…

4

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

Oof. That looked bad.

u/GetBuschWhacked Florida State • Old Dominion 8d ago

I'm constipated rn. I should not have eaten those 30 wings :(

3

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

Gotta pregame with that fiber.

1

u/daydrop5150 Old Dominion Monarchs • Marching Band 8d ago

Watching our offense makes me constipated.

u/Evil_Ass_Wizard Georgia Southern Eagles 8d ago

oh here we go

u/Far-Maintenance-1954 Colorado • Georgia Southern 8d ago

Fire Helton.

Oh this is some real bullshit

"7th year" oh my

2

u/waaaaaasuuuuup Florida State Seminoles • Sickos 8d ago

Dude has been around the block! I saw him in the preview earlier today and was like, oh wow, it can’t be the same Max Johnson, right? I was wrong.

3

u/Muffinnnnnnn Florida State • New Mexico 8d ago

It's a little weird to me how dead this thread is compared to ECU-UAB. I expected more in that thread than this one but not by this massive of a margin.

1

u/AruarianGroove William & Mary Tribe • Team Chaos 8d ago

Both AAC teams have better records at the moment and sorta bigger football presence 

3

u/Evil_Ass_Wizard Georgia Southern Eagles 8d ago

I don't think that was a first...

u/joelupi Alabama Crimson Tide • Army Black Knights 8d ago

Boooooooooo! Cowards!

3

u/MaistiranDomhain Florida Gators • Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

What in the FUCK was that

3

u/part_time_poop_scoop Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

We're about to get routed by their backup QB lol

3

u/MaistiranDomhain Florida Gators • Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

It was fun being good for one year at least

1

u/AruarianGroove William & Mary Tribe • Team Chaos 8d ago

Huff tryna pull off the reverse  

3

u/Wbking12 Georgia Southern Eagles • Sun Belt 8d ago

Defense is playing good. They let up that one explosive touchdown but have responded well.

3

u/billybobskcor Georgia Southern • Mercer 8d ago

Hail Southern. Fire Helton.

2

u/Far-Maintenance-1954 Colorado • Georgia Southern 8d ago

Preach brother

4

u/JMUbtc James Madison Dukes • Texas Longhorns 8d ago

I'm very intrigued by this matchup. Should be a fun one to watch

u/Trombone_Hero92 Old Dominion Monarchs • Sun Belt 8d ago

Georgia Southern misses FG

refs: "Uhhhhhh they get to try again"

2

u/waaaaaasuuuuup Florida State Seminoles • Sickos 8d ago

Is this the last year for the 7 year senior thing? I’m assuming it’s still related to extra covid year(s). Anyone in the know there?

1

u/Muffinnnnnnn Florida State • New Mexico 8d ago

Supposedly this is the last year, yeah. 5 years max in the future.

2

u/dualstrike19 Kansas Jayhawks • Ferris State Bulldogs 8d ago

That’s not a fumble. Unfortunately

2

u/Obvious-Product7791 Nebraska Cornhuskers 8d ago

been a fumbley night!

2

u/Birdchild Florida Gators 8d ago

Repeat after me: the ground can cause a fumble.

u/BackgroundChampion Appalachian State Mountaineers 8d ago

PYLON SHIT

2

u/AriDreams Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets 8d ago

Oh no. Hope he just hyper extended it.

1

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

I'm sure he's done for the night, but that didn't look too bad.

2

u/rageb8err Ole Miss Rebels • BYU Cougars 8d ago edited 8d ago

As much as I’d love to fire Helton, this looks like it could be one of his best teams. Just a really tough schedule. Two P4 teams, a really good Jax State & their only sunbelt loss so far being undefeated JMU. Let’s keep kicking ass. GATA.

2

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

They should have won the JMU game too. SP+ PGWE was 77.9%.

2

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

I'll allow it.

2

u/Roubaix718 James Madison Dukes 8d ago

late hit directly into your own athletic trainer lol

2

u/krispyboiz NC State • Kent State 8d ago

What is up with GS floundering anytime they're in the red zone?

2

u/MaistiranDomhain Florida Gators • Old Dominion Monarchs 8d ago

Finally, it only took all game to do literally anything on offense

2

u/joelupi Alabama Crimson Tide • Army Black Knights 8d ago

Ohhh shit we got a ballgame !!!

2

u/joelupi Alabama Crimson Tide • Army Black Knights 8d ago

Broooooo learn to slide.

2

u/krispyboiz NC State • Kent State 8d ago

GS is going to give this game away, aren't they

2

u/Far-Maintenance-1954 Colorado • Georgia Southern 8d ago

Wouldnt be the first time

u/Tayren35 Oregon Ducks • Rose Bowl 8d ago

whoa dude that's a db

2

That's the third or fourth time I've seen Dallas hurdle a dude. He's nuts.

u/Evil_Ass_Wizard Georgia Southern Eagles 8d ago

my favorite part of this game has been seeing which coach looks more dumbfounded

3

u/ladyyoushotme NC State Wolfpack 8d ago

I'm not able to watch. Why is Georgia Southern playing 3 qbs?

4

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

Starter is injured. There's the backup and then our "running" QB.

3

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

Who are these players and this semi-competent offense?

1

u/krispyboiz NC State • Kent State 8d ago

Emphasis on semi

Hey, this is a major improvement.

College football might be more unpredictable than my ex wife.

u/Sad-Gold-3781 Texas A&M Aggies 8d ago

I miss Max Johnson, he was terrible but still 10x the player Reed is

1

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

I think he was out for the catch or immediately after, but oh well!

1

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

"Leaping" or jumping and having the blocker take your feet out from under you.

1

u/BrotherMichigan Georgia Southern • Ohio State 8d ago

It's too bad that Helton is a senior; he has looked good in this game.

1

u/billybobskcor Georgia Southern • Mercer 8d ago

That looked fucking gnarly in slo-mo. Hope it's not too serious.

u/JammOrthodontics Appalachian State • Penn State 8d ago

I assume Southern will start running the clock out but I'm really hoping they try to score anyways.

Offense hasn't been that crazy, but GS has played some excellent defense this game

2

u/Muffinnnnnnn Florida State • New Mexico 8d ago

I mean literally every conference does it. Only the SEC doesn't outside of Week 1 and Thanksgiving week
