2013 SEC Football Discussion Thread

The CFB playoff system can't come soon enough....

Amen.

Targeting Rule (as it is currently enforced) is stupid in a full contact sport like football.

You talking about that call in the SC/Tenn game? That was a BS call, the receiver was lowering his head causing the Safety to give a glancing blow to the head. Why can't that also be called on the Offense? I have often wondered why a running back can have his hands all up in a DB's grill pulling the face mask but it is a penalty the other way. Should be both ways.

Nah, I'm talking about the UF/MO game. Very first play, MO throws a pass, receiver jumps high in the air to catch, safety runs up to tackle/push him out of bounds, receive on the way now hits his face mask on part of safety's helmet (not lowered.) They throw safety out for targeting.

Same sort of play, same bs call.

Not looking good for Gators.

It's gonna be a 'fan maturing' year for us Gators.

Watching a couple of games and checking the scores (W/L) I feel like I'm in SEC Bizarro-world.

The Safety lowered and led with the crown of HIS helmet on a receiver in the air. The receiver can't stop gravity from doing it's thing. Totally agree about the facemask/stiffarm double standard.

It was a bad day for ranked SEC teams.....at least we still have the Golden Knights and the Noles.

It was an incredible weekend of top 25 upsets. I just wish my Gators could have added to that list. After Solomon Patton returned the kickoff for a touchdown I was sure we were going to be a second-half team. Nope.

Just watching all those SEC teams beat hell out of each other planted a crystal clear seed in my mind: Oregon will play FSU for the title.

We'll see I guess.
