UGA beat Mississippi State, lifting the curse of the black jerseys in the process. Nit-pickers hated on the dog collars, but they really didn't stand out. I liked the block numbers. Looking forward to getting back to the red jerseys.
Not sure what happened to UGA's defense. Miss State put seven in the box to stop the run, but Daniels repeatedly converted downfield on third and long. Daniels spread the ball around to at least five different receivers. George Pickins was back, perhaps wanting to wear the black jersey. Still waiting for the huge freshman tight end Washington to be included in the passing game. Saw him open a couple of times.
Clemson@FSU: cancelled just hours before the game. Trevor Lawrence's Heisman hopes continue to fade. He could come back next year to win the award.
Justin Fields threw four interceptions to lowly Indiana. The Hoosiers made it a game. I'm still not impressed by the Buckeyes or Fields. But he'll get serious Heisman consideration.
Florida's Kyle Trask threw an interception at Vandy (or was it dropped?). Didn't throw for four TD's for the first time all year. Didn't throw for 400 yards. But he's near the top of the Heisman race. Will his hopes fade after losing to Bama in the SEC Championship Game?
Bama looked formitable. Kentucky didn't help, committing dumb penalties. Never saw such a late hit on the QB. Bama's backup QB looked as good as their starter. At least three great running backs. Clemson better watch out.
Arkansas just missed beating LSU. Good game by Felipe Franks. LSU played their backup QB, a Jemare Russell lookalike who could actually spot his second and third receivers.
Wore my new red UGA jersey over to Reid's to watch the game. His son Nathan sported a black dog-collar Pickens #1 jersey. We had a nice discussion.
