[u/geauxnads100]

Florida is 0-2 since Josh Pate compared them to 2019 LSU.

[u/discipleofbill → u/geauxnads100]

And then he tried to pretend he didn’t say that. Coward.

[u/Fuckingfademefam → u/discipleofbill]

I don’t watch his show anymore. Did he really back peddle? 😂

[u/Manning_bear_pig → u/Fuckingfademefam]

"I didn't say I thought that, just that some people were saying it"

This was his defense.

[u/MasPatriot → u/Fuckingfademefam]

He went with the that’s what I was hearing from other people it wasn’t my own opinion excuse

[u/discipleofbill → u/Fuckingfademefam]

Yeah he did.

[u/YWingSupremacist → u/Fuckingfademefam]

he back peddles everything these days. massive hack

[u/Gabagool0vaHere → u/YWingSupremacist]

He even back peddled the whole Trump thing, hyped it up, defended it, shut down a couple comment sections, all for him to end up deleting the video entirely. He has zero back bone

[u/apignamedcurtis → u/Gabagool0vaHere]

Can y’all please spell pedal correctly😭

[u/hello_dali → u/apignamedcurtis]

Thought I was losing my mind

[u/Chester-A-Asskicker → u/hello_dali]

TBF Pate does peddle in shit

[u/Squirrel_Whisperer → u/Gabagool0vaHere]

I knew him growing up. He was a year younger, played paintball at our family farm. I haven't spoken with him in over 20 years, but we did grow up in rural west Georgia in an area that voted Trump 75%. Even people that are educated but never left the area still think democrats are marxists. It wouldn't surprise me if he still had republican tendencies. I was full republican back then and now leftist, but I'm sure I've had a much more varied life than his regardless of his public success.

[u/TallBoy24 → u/YWingSupremacist]

that's what these media guys do they go with the trending topic of the day and hope people forget and unfortunately almost everyone does forget with this 24/7 news media cycle

[u/jamesfordsawyer → u/Fuckingfademefam]

Like he was about to swat down some passes over Revis Island.

[u/Previous-Ad8916 → u/geauxnads100]

Everyone is 2019 LSU until they’re not 2019 LSU

[u/lilboytuner919 → u/Previous-Ad8916]

Everybody better than 2019 LSU until they gotta be better than 2019 LSU

[u/SirImpervious → u/lilboytuner919]

Somewhat related, but I'm often sad that we didn't get to see 2019 LSU vs Ohio State. Those two teams along with Clemson were so far ahead of the pack that year. We got to see Clemson/Ohio State and Clemson/LSU, but we never got that third match between those amazing teams.

[u/JakeSteeleIII → u/Previous-Ad8916]

Everybody likes comparing their teams to one that had likely 3 NFL HoFers on offense.

[u/gatorbois → u/geauxnads100]

Fuck Pate. Same dude who hyped up Napier for years and compared him to Saban in many ways

[u/lowes18 → u/gatorbois]

Which was hilarious because anyone who followed him at his Louisiana days knew he was a serious underpreformer.

[u/gandalf45435 → u/lowes18]

People who didn't know Cajun ball acted like he was some play calling prophet.

[u/daftdude05 → u/gatorbois]

Stopped watching him 3 years ago and never went back.

Dude couldn’t even get behind his own poll. “Don’t come after me, blame the algorithm”. Then would be 90% fluff.

Dude knows how to talk slow and appeal to the masses tho, elite at being generic enough for a wider audience appeal.

[u/Beechman → u/daftdude05]

Stopped watching him 3 years ago and never went back.

I had a 7 hour drive last weekend and wasn't sure what to listen to so I gave his podcast a go and it was genuinely insane how many ads there were. I rotate through a hand full of podcasts while working so I get that ads are inevitable but it was so constant and the ad breaks were SO LONG. I'm pretty sure I to skip more than 8 minutes before they were actually talking football. I gave up after a couple of segments before I just flipped backed to music. I'm rambling but he just sucks. I don't get his popularity.

[u/Born_Wealth_2435 → u/daftdude05]

Another person who doesn’t understand power rankings

[u/stimulation → u/Born_Wealth_2435]

Don’t simp for that bald vanilla fuck

[u/n1nja_nacho → u/Born_Wealth_2435]

He calls them power rankings, but in any other sport power rankings are the same as polls.

Just call it what it is, betting odds.

[u/VercingetorixDied → u/n1nja_nacho]

Are they? I've always known power ratings and rankings to be distinct

[u/n1nja_nacho → u/VercingetorixDied]

Power ratings in the pros might as well be rankings.

I don't dislike Pate, but I wish he just called the JP Poll "betting odds."

[u/mbh223 → u/n1nja_nacho]

He keeps the name confusing to drive engagement and it works like a charm.

[u/Icy_Meat9199 → u/daftdude05]

The poll he continues to post in order to farm engagement and influence opinion when he knows it's absolute dogshit

[u/daftdude05 → u/Icy_Meat9199]

sad to hear its still going then

[u/Icy_Meat9199 → u/daftdude05]

Yeah its just "on drugs" every week now

But we ignore that

[u/katarh → u/gatorbois]

Uncle Lou calls him "juice poot" for a reason.

[u/SpaceTimeMorph → u/gatorbois]

I was fully supportive of anyone who would hype up and continue to have Floridia employ Napier.

[u/DangerIsMyUsername → u/gatorbois]

So he's on Florida's payroll? No sane person would say this 😅

[u/mizaistorom → u/gatorbois]

Napier never lost to SCAR though

[u/dunno260 → u/geauxnads100]

Also since The Film Guy (whom I genuinely do like his stuff) put out a video about Buster Faulkner's offense being the toughest thing to defend in CFB.

[u/BeginningDay19 → u/dunno260]

But he also said this week that Mizzou might have unlocked it a bit with the DT on the weak side to stop that stretch run play.

[u/earthling82 → u/geauxnads100]

Time for the clown nose to make an appearance

[u/A_Rolling_Baneling → u/earthling82]

Pate just glazes whoever gives him the most access. As soon as a school stops returning his calls he shits on them. Napier let Pate in the door so he loved him. It’s pathetic for a supposed journalist

[u/Icy_Meat9199 → u/A_Rolling_Baneling]

And he's disingenuous.

He seeks the opinion of least resistance and most profit but acts as if he's honest. He thinks we are too dumb to be able to tell.

[u/Tommybrady20 → u/geauxnads100]

It’s easy to see why 99% of the time Pate rides the fence because any time he says a take it’s the biggest pile of turd you’ve ever heard

[u/Greenlytrees → u/Tommybrady20]

The guy whose video titles will include “prediction” every week and he then doesn’t actually make a prediction? No, never.

[u/master_bloseph → u/Tommybrady20]

It’s not fence riding, it’s nuance /s

[u/Tommybrady20 → u/master_bloseph]

Anything can hypothetically happen!

“I don’t think this is gonna happen at all but I can’t say for sure that it won’t!”

[u/flick_my_fleck → u/geauxnads100]

Still waiting on Pate’s promised 2-hour special for FSU not making the playoffs undefeated.

[u/SyVSFe → u/geauxnads100]

Skimming through this thread, their bandwagon is gone

[u/Yanksuck73 → u/geauxnads100]

Pate has terrible takes. I had to stop listening to his podcast a couple years back. Dude is a clickbait sensationalist.

[u/V1cVinegar44 → u/geauxnads100]

Think the venn diagram of people who listen to pate and think jelly roll is high concept is a circle

[u/TrappedInOhio → u/geauxnads100]

Pate is proof that if you have a nice sounding voice and commit to consistently streaming, you can make it far without anything insightful to say.

[u/americandreams41 → u/TrappedInOhio]

Him blowing anyone he deems somebody in the sport is a big key as well.

[u/DanFlashesC0up0n → u/geauxnads100]

Listen that might not be good, but also it could potentially be okay

[u/RhettWilliams88 → u/geauxnads100]

Pate is a fucking clown

[u/ManOfTheHour1 → u/geauxnads100]

Sounds terrible. True shame. So much sad.

[u/MongoMoonwalked → u/geauxnads100]

I’m sorry but WHAT

[u/TizzleBizzle2627 → u/geauxnads100]

Maybeeeeeee we win out. Also I’m a little buzzed

[u/PlaysWithSqurls → u/geauxnads100]

What a dweeb

[u/f0gax → u/geauxnads100]

I see his name a lot but have no idea who he is or why anyone cares.

[u/Molson2871 → u/f0gax]

He's a solo podcaster that sucks ass

[u/NOT_MOBLEY → u/geauxnads100]

Another example of “ people really listen to this guy huh?”
