Football Week 1 SEC Power Rankings

Tell me where I'm right or wrong!

Would expect plenty of different takes after Week 1 when we saw a lot of ugly lopsided scores.

JaMori Maclin

I had no expectations for him and wow he is fun. The Cats have some ballers in the WR room now. I bet Hamdan is having a blast coaching with all these options at his disposal. It already feels so different compared to last year. It’s just one game but I like what I saw.
Yeah because we probably win 50-0 if not for the weather.
Were favored by just 25.

Where is the guy who said big Deone doesn’t get held ?

I said it’s a shame Big Deone is an interior rusher for us.
He gets held mercifully, but officials let it go because the crowd can’t see it.
When edge rushers get held the whole stadium sees it and they are forced to Call it.
His reply:
Good lord, already complaining about officiating. Deone doesn’t get held more than anyone else.
Can someone with tech skills post a clip from YouTube with 1:34 seconds left in the first quarter? A still photo would be hilarious as well.
Deone flys past his man. The dude with both hands jumps on Deones back. With his legs wrapped around him as well. Deone carry’s him 3 yards on his back and collapse's at the QBs feet. Should have been a sack.
The funniest thing is you can see the official standing there staring right at the play. I paused my TV to still and it’s hilarious the dude hanging on deones back from behind. Piggy backed him 3 yards.

We Are A Bad Match Up for South Carolina

Oh he will. You can tell he hates beamer. That said we are a game sc absolutely has circled and will be massively up for. Just remember last year they flew in the sandman guy just for our game. That tells you how much focus they have on us.

At the same time theyre all in on beating us, we're trying to take the next step by beating Georgia and UT.

So its a dangerous situation. Not just a trap game but a trap program so to speak.
Our D wont allow for a let down.

POLITICAL THREAD

Not only is it completely absurd its totally unworkable. Your point about unrealized loss deduction is the biggest. Guarantee they wont want to allow that but i can't think of any other current concept that lacks the balance of the deduction in the event of a loss. Without that deduction opportunity i don't know that its constitutional, but admittedly i don't know much about constitutional issues as applied to tax or revenue law/code.

Also - are you taxed on it once? Or every year till its actually realized? Who even placed value on such items or investments?

Its a gigantic boondoggle from every angle except political pandering to the insane far left.


There’s a bunch of bullshit in their plan that allows you to defer and pay a penalty if you’re illiquid, etc. I haven’t taken the time to read the actual details. Would have been nice if the Roberts courts would have defined realization as a necessary component of taxable income when they had the chance over the summer. Instead, we get to deal with this bullshit.

Maybe the biggest off-season move…

Not sure about 'OL was awful at pass blocking' - Brock seemed to have time to throw pretty often. He was good about extending plays, stepping up/out in the pocket, rolling out and still looking downfield. I was very pleased with OL performance. Wolford may not be the coach that Schlar was but he's renowed as a great recruiter. Think he'll prove to be a big step up over Yenser. And, 'Alabama's OL underperformed all year'? The same Bama that made the CFP playoffs? With a poorly performing OL? I don't think so. Maybe didn't dominate every single game but they did fine, imo.
There were several instances where a block was missed on the edge. And I don't just mean that someone wasn't assigned that lineman. I mean a Sunbelt team had ends outrun or beat our tackles. Then there were several plays where defensive linemen just completely came clean. Lines need time to gel. I get that, but to have Southern Miss dudes in an SEC backfield as often as they were isn't something I like to see.

I will say I'm incredibly happy with the lack of penalties and the run blocking so far. That's fair praise.
