    If SEC wants to do the right thing, Smart and the official would be suspended for this.
    Kirby Smart just lied about calling a timeout and got away with it This League

    In 2005, I called Mike Leach to introduce myself before writing a piece on him. We talked for 45 minutes -- not once about football. Then I heard a toilet flush. Me: "Were you on the toilet?" Leach" "Yeah, uh, figured the conversation was good and didn't want to stop."

    Stop this nonsense that SMU shouldn't be penalized for playing the ACC CG. Georgia was No.1 in 2023, and 12-0. Then lost SEC CG by three points, and was knocked out of the CFP. End. Of. Argument.

    These two are actually good friends. Imagine what happens when it’s Georgia vs. Florida, Kirby vs. Lane. With similar personnel.

    Power 5 AD just texted me: “It’s looking more and more like it’s Big Ten and Pac-12 vs. SEC, ACC and Big 12."

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Alabama — with the best player in CFB (Bryce Young) — is going to get in. And win the whole damn thing.

    #Mizzou coach @CoachDrinkwitz on @1010XL, explaining irony of beating #Gators & Mullen after last year’s near brawl: “My father was a farmer, and there’s an old saying you reap what you sow. If you sow kindness, you reap kindness. If you sow jackass, you reap jackass.”

    Keon Coleman was best player at Michigan State. Jaheim Bell was best player at South Carolina. Fentrell Cypress was best player at Virginia. Braden Fiske was best player at Western Michigan. They all play for FSU.

    Best part of the #CFB meltdown: @trevorlawrencee doesn’t have to play another snap, and he’s the first pick in the 2021 @NFL draft. And he’s he’s doing everything he can to save the season.

    I swear I’m not making this up: a Gators safety just yelled to the FSU sideline that it didn’t have 11 guys on the field. To which FSU promptly added a receiver. And threw an incompletion.
