    Yeah but I don't think it will matter much, he can make winners out of any ol' pro......ala Rodgers, Brady.

    And he has guts!!

    If I were Cinci, I'd draft at least one LSU WR to keep him company.

    Not sure what to make of Higgins... seems like a bit of a pussy.

    And I really don't know what to make of Lawrence... last year's playoff run impressed, but this year vs. top defenses I've seen jack... at least from his arm.

    Well I think it's safe now Mr gumby can work on his Championship acceptance speech. Congratulations on your hard fought win !  😉

    ........and geezzus I had my worst college and pro pickem and came in second in both the Survivor and bowl mania.  Nobody remembers who was second! (where did I hear that?)

    But hey it was fun!

    Have to agree... would love to have tOSU CBs matchup, but LSU just has too many weapons.

    ... but it pissed me off the way we lost to Clemson... namely Trevor's running... he ain't all that as a runner.

    And now.....who gives a shit.   (unless you had money riding on it....did you?)

    Neither team likeable enough to root for.  

    The only interesting thing about this game will be to look back on it in 10 years to see which QB came out with the better NFL career.

    And you wonder why I have him as a mortal lock going to the Bengals?  I'd trade Mayfield and our first round pick to Cinci right now for Joe, and not give it a second thought.

    A bigger and slower version of Lamar Jackson. When LSU brought the heat, he threw some downright errant passes.

    1. Cinci probably would want more than swapping R1 picks plus Mayfield.  I was thinking about that during the game watching Burrow pick apart the undefeated and defending champions.  

    2. I've always believed that the super tall QBs have built in problems, sure they can see over the lines better than a 6' to 6' 3" guy and might have a cannon arm -but- they lose a lot in mobility which can also lead to excessive hits particularly in the legs.  And a cannon arm isn't always accurate.  A matter of preference I guess.
