The OFFICIAL 2016 College football RANDOM THOUGHTS thread

[malbaker86]

I've actually never said a word about the University of Tennessee football team till 2015. Remember I dont waste my time with scrub squads.

So the most you can accuse me is pumping them up LAST YEAR.

You won't find a single mention about Tenneseee from me before 2015. Ask the dudes who've known me since the AHH and SOHH days. I never gave two shyts about Tennessee.

I'm a fan of greatness. And I'm telling you the squad they have at Tennessee right now is special.

This is sad bruh

Hard to believe his career is almost over. We're really in a golden era of RBs. Cook, Henry, Gurley, Fournette, Chubb, Zeke, Gordon, Duke, McCaffrey all just in the past three seasons.

Running backs are back. This up coming season is stacked with them

 

[smitty22]

I actually think we run them outta the building. 20+ point margin of victory.

I have no confidence in Helfrich at this point... none

We are so freaking stacked on offense.. probably the deepest ever.. watch him blow it.. glad we finally switching to the 4-3

it's really beautiful I love the RB position. usually the most talented dude on the team. it's a damn shame what the nfl did to the position
these kids are amazing the way they carry the squad on their backs

I agree, everyone says you need a QB in College Football and you do. But the RB does all the dirty work and the QB gets all the credit

Don't are any busts in this draft either even the undrafted guys have a good chance of making a roster (Devall and Lee with the Saints and Coker with the Cardinals).

Give me OL and a RB all day with a DL on point. I miss them old FSU squads from back in the mid 90s that Boulware/Wilson combo at DE and Dunn with our OL run blocking shyt was we just didn't have enough at QB to beat UF a couple games or we probably have 2 more NC's on resume.

I can only think of one QB who legit carried a school to an NC and that was Cam in 2010 he was man amongst boys.

@Swagnificent If we turn in your crack dealer we can probably get a nice lil come up

That's why I think Cam is either the #1 or #2 greatest SEC QB ever. I mean this dude did not have an all star team. Mike Dyer and Nick Fairley were the only other notable guys on that team. With Tebow, you still had Percy Harvin, Pouncey twins, the Killer, Spikes, and Dunlap.

Speaking O-Lines though, this recent Bama O-Line really made me miss the 2012 one. Now you're probably thinking "well you had a 2,000 yard rusher and a 1st round O-Lineman" but mannn that 2012 line something special. Barrett Jones, DJ Fluker, Chance Warmack, Anthony Steen, and Cyrus Kouandjio were some straight up monsters

Like seeing some of the bullshyt rankings these mags come out with.

Was big into collecting covers back when I was younger loved getting those SI college football covers too. All time favorite was this one from 1996

and even they did running the ball. that veer was unstoppable. they weren't throwing the ball 35 times a game. power running is the key to winning. power running and a QB who can be a threat to throw down the field and not make a dumb throw is how you win offensively. ain't shyt changed
