CFB Weekly Thread 2017 Week 1 CFB Open Thread

FSU was preseason #2 last year and obviously didn't turn out to be that good. Bama still has major question marks around their passing game and he knows it

Oh yeah, I won't disagree with that. I'm saying our Urban doesn't seem to be the fire and brimstone Florida Urban from 10 years ago. If OSU beat FSU tonight Urban would be aloof and give his spiel about being a "Sledgehammer Game."

Saban has never lost his edge. That's why he's special.

Or a sociopath. All jokes aside, I don't remember Urban ever being on edge like that even at Florida.

He was extremely intense at Florida

Is there a pink contract? Didn't know that... media doesn't report this stuff.

Urban hasn't been the "clown show" type since his first year. Either he's gotten way too nice or this team is going to be special.

But did he ever subtly call his team garbage after a 17-pt win over a Top 10 opponent?

I believe so, yes. He was never remotely happy in 2009 when he had that loaded Gators team. He was wound too tight that year

Nice one corn...smh

Huh. I know he was pissed after barely beating mediocre opponents but he seemed happy when he beat LSU. Of course that Bama asswhipping soured thing.

Hello Nebraska?

And he does that creepy side eye scroll from the reporter to the camera every 2 seconds.

I mean, you're right he's different than Saban when talking to the media, but I don't think he takes a backseat to any coach in competitiveness. I have little doubt he's just as motivated as Nick to win an NC

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

program-defining win for corny aggy. congrats.

Etling is still at LSU? Wasn't he recruited by Joe Tiller? JFC, how old is he?
