Week 0 Games Discussion

Watched most of the USC game. They're explosive, but relied on a lot of broken plays, which was surprising with Williams back and their skill depth. He takes unnecessary risks and looks for the knockout, but it'll be there with their speed. If they play a patient defense there will be a lot of 3 and outs.

On defense it's the same Grinch. More talent, but full sending it too often. Will keep a lot of teams in the game. Their DL was sprinting up the field against a mobile QB. SJSU should've just run draws until they stopped it.

2025 GA CB Devin Williams (Auburn Signee)

TOP-60 CB DEVIN WILLIAMS PLANS PENN STATE GAMEDAY VISIT​

An Ohio State cornerback target in the 2025 class has confirmed he’ll be visiting for arguably the Buckeyes’ biggest home game of the season. Four-star Georgia 2025 cornerback Devin Williams confirmed to Eleven Warriors Wednesday he plans to attend Ohio State's Oct. 21 matchup with Penn State.

Williams is considered the 60th-best prospect and sixth-rated cornerback in the 2025 class and is the high school teammate of Ohio State 2024 defensive line target Eddrick Houston. He was offered by the Buckeyes on April 7 after taking a visit to Columbus.

“I’ve talked to Eddrick about Ohio State, and he’s told me that he loves it,” Williams said in April. “It’s definitely going to be a top choice for him. ... It felt great to be offered by coach Ryan Day. I just felt elite after that, hearing I got the offer. He said he cares about family a lot and he just wanted to see how my family and I were. After that, he gave me the offer.”

Madden or NCAA Football

The 10hr trial of Madden 24.

Meh, a good bit of the same old same. PC got the "next gen" stuff finally, but it really doesn't feel like it. Running game can still be incredibly bipolar, zone logic is hit or miss, pass rush is either in your lap or takes the day off. I have 30 days free of EA play, doubt I take it any further than that.
I am afraid the NCAA game will be Madden with different skins on the players.

Ole Miss Rebels (official thread)

The family of course has pushed back, saying they had to make it a conservatorship so that there wouldn't be "perceived impropriety" when he went to their family's school (Ole Miss), yada yada yada, and that they really didn't make money off of it and I'm rich anyway, yada yada yada. SJ seemed like he was speaking honestly, actually, but big daddy T, let's just say he was less than convincing.

The "I was already rich from my Taco Bell franchises" defense doesn't fly. There is a certain breed in this country for whom there's never too much. Piling more onto the stack becomes the driving force behind their daily existence. I'll wait for more to come out before I make a final judgement, but the notion that it's inconceivable that someone could grift this kid because they already had money is a non-starter.
