That's ball game

No way Georgia will come back in the 2nd half. They can't stop OU. 

Halftime adjustments!?

 

I'm hoping just b/c I'd like to see a good, close game.  Don't really care who wins.

 

Interesting to keep an eye on Mayfield though.

 

PS:  How about #98 for Georgia wearing nerd glasses inside his helmet; don't recall seeing that on a football player before.

He's a kicker so he can get away with it on the field.

 

And after that kick he earned the right to wear a pocket protector if he wants

Eric Dickerson once wore glasses that were far more incredible.

You're absolutely right of course!

 

I totally forgot about that.  He also wore a ton of extra pads all over the place as I recall.

 

OJ was the opposite; he hardly wore anything and said he wanted to feel if a tackler was touching him, etc., so he deliberately didn't wear hip pads and stuff like that.

I see the arm talent, zip, accuracy, good release. He sees the field (moved the safety over beautifully on one long completion). He's mobile and athletic. Quick and decisive actions/reactions. Lots to like - however on most passing downs he gets sit back in perfect undisturbed tranquility as he surveys the field or allows for the playcalls to develop. His O-line is dominant. So I don't know how he can perform when under sustained pressure and in a small NFL pocket the big bodies will be much closer, not five to seven yards away. Maybe then not being tall becomes an issue.

Just a thought. Haven't seen much of him so those who have will likely have a better view. 

Wonder how tall he is. Find out at the Combine.

Listed at 6'1" but maybe he's a touch smaller than that.

 

Height is only an issue with a QB if it's an issue.


It's not an issue if it's not.

 

Doesn't seem to bother Drew Brees but does seem to bother Tyrod.

A touch under 6'1" is no problem for me. But he looks a lot shorter next to some of his mates.
