LET'S TALK FOOTBALL!

[u/TonyTheSnowman]

I appreciate auburn still playing their game but run a little bit of the play clock? Like is 20 instead of 10 seconds too much to ask? Shorten the game

[u/awgiba]

If you ever need some crucial calls to go one way only to save a conference favorite from getting upset in the SEC, you can rely on this bald vampire looking fuck to make it happen

[u/Pale_Land_5107]

What is going on

[u/Asymmetrical_Anomaly]

Please just trade three and outs until time expires

[u/Pyro1934]

Oh perfect, our comfort zone starting spot according to last week

[u/jtezus]

Please do something

[u/Iordofthethings]

Alright well. I don’t know I feel like the history of Auburn is we are about to see a 7.5 minute drive that takes it 92 yards

[u/PlanktonOnly4902]

Finally a good punt

[u/OnMyNerves23]

Cmon Auburn finish strong.

[u/johndelvec3]

Classic Who Wants It Less

[u/braves-geek]

Too much time left

[u/mechajlaw]

You got to make Georgia prove they can drive the field

[u/SpikyBoi096]

Time for the 8 minute long drive to take it to OT, I guess?

[u/Boomhauer_007]

Speed option to the short side has never worked in the history of the sport

[u/Engelbert-n-Ernie]

CHEW THE GODDAMN CLOCK 🙄

[u/SPCsooprlolz]

Excellent punt

[u/Artlens2013]

Always hate running to the short side of the field, you’re just handicapping yourself with the sideline

[u/braves-geek]

Watch for a fake

[u/PavWrestlinGifs]

Dawgs ain’t winning

[u/Grade-AMasterpiece]

That fuckin' hold, man.

[u/Lord_Lava_Nugget]

For the neutrals wondering why a large portion of Georgia fans have a certain doomer edge to them, extreme paranoia/superstition or can't get over their seething hatred for Mike Bobo

It's games like this that are the reason 

[u/noobnoob62]

Chris Cole is a stud

[u/thechosenkenobi]

Why the fuck wouldn’t you go for it

[u/rjl2021 → u/thechosenkenobi]

Have you seen georgias offense, not worth the risk

[u/FoundTheShithead]

Running speed option to the short side of the field is a choice.

[u/keppush → u/FoundTheShithead]

A bad one

[u/ChrisFromSeattle → u/FoundTheShithead]

Should be a fire able offense, you're giving the defense and extra defender

[u/doonanriley]

Clock operator is waiting 3-5 seconds after every snap to start the clock...

[u/tacobellmysterymeat]

Kinda wanted a fake

[u/wesleyed]

Offense really letting the d down

[u/TrailerHitch19]

If they run this 4th down it's a QB run 100% 

[u/AcneBalls]

I thought I was mishearing his name. It actually is Nimrod

[u/WisdomCow → u/AcneBalls]

I went so far as to do a deep dive to make sure it meant what I thought it meant ,,, turned into a neat Bugs Bunny lesson

[u/Hunting_Doubles]

Yeah definitely punt. We haven’t shown we can do anything

[u/Indecently_Delicious]

Top SEC teams getting skunked by mid and unranked SEC teams today.

Does that make the top SEC teams mid?

[u/BoogerSugarSovereign → u/Indecently_Delicious]

No it means they're going to rank Auburn and Florida 

[u/righarakirir]

Cole is carrying this team rn

[u/elaVehT]

Make them pay for being greedy here please

[u/BoogerSugarSovereign]

Wish Marsh had Nimrod's concentration...

[u/Pyro1934]

Come on offense, yall gotta hold it together just for a tiny bit

[u/Navolix]

dont like that playcall

[u/SkyeDrums]

Don't do it, Auburn. Don't pull a Nebraska

[u/Doc-McThicc]

Chris Cole!

[u/IrishMosaic]

That goofy holding penalty might end up being the deciding call

[u/XrayGuy08 → u/IrishMosaic]

Naw. It won’t matter. We’re not winning this.

[u/Kodyaufan2]

If our punter could get one good punt today please

[u/XrayGuy08 → u/Kodyaufan2]

Like that?

[u/plateglass1]

I’m just happy in a few years we’ll still make the playoffs even with 2 or 3 regular season losses. /s

[u/Turbulent-Damage-165]

Gifted possession by the refs

[u/TheLizard12]

Today's fun fact: Nimrod was a biblical hunter. Bugs Bunny called Elmer Fudd that sarcastically but nobody got the reference and just assumed it meant moron. So that's what it means now.

[u/ToneOpposite9668]

To the short side of the field - not a good idea

[u/ben3345]

Georgia is too fast and too disciplined for the speed option to work there

[u/ToneOpposite9668 → u/ben3345]

To the short side of the field too

[u/Electrical-Moment726]

Every time I see that Gomer Pyle looking ref I wait for the fix. Too many games he officiated for LSU/Bama and too many calls that just happened to go Bamas way.

[u/Neele1313]

You could tell the ref was locked and loaded with that flag

[u/WisdomCow]

I did not like that call to the short side of the field

[u/DerrickWhiteMVP]

Running an option to the short side of the field is certainly a choice

[u/CincyGam3r]

You can't do a speed option to the short side of the field..... come on 

[u/thatboiOsaka]

Go for it please

[u/Iordofthethings]

A reverse would have been such great thing

[u/Sweaty-Connection351]

Gotta punt here

[u/mechajlaw]

A little Mahomie

[u/Xaxziminrax]

That's such a good rep squeezing him out without putting his hands on him, damn

[u/braves-geek]

TACKLE THE BALL CARRIER

[u/DickBottalico]

no way his name really is Nimrod I’m glad I put this game on

[u/BravesLover2002]

He def saw the Indiana game today

[u/Electronic-Lynx-9454]

Option to the short side of the field?

[u/elaVehT]

Hasn’t Brown been kinda ass for y’all this season? He can’t be sacked today

[u/CFPMVPStetsonBennett → u/elaVehT]

Georgia was only allowed to beat one Alabama team at a time, for so long we’ve chosen Auburn to bully but with these back to back Bama wins the universe must correct itself

[u/Kodyaufan2 → u/elaVehT]

Yes he has

[u/tb25uga]

Brown has dodged about 3 season's worth of tackles today

[u/MajorFuzzelz_24]

Refs are doing their part Georgia. Are you????

[u/MichaelSquare]

Sec refs got the call

[u/sebsasour]

There was room to run with a better throw

[u/LightningDusty]

How many times are they going to say Nimrod my immature ass can't stop giggling

[u/Aubear11885 → u/LightningDusty]

Why? Nimrod was great biblical hunter

[u/rjl2021 → u/LightningDusty]

Sounds like a quidditch broom

[u/Quick-Expert-4608]

That’s such an unfortunate last name

[u/SpoiledMilkTeeth]

I understand that his last name suggests that he isn’t a threat, but we’ve got to cover that guy.

[u/FreeVBucksforXMAS]

Insane home cooking call, never see that on 2nd and 2

[u/Morgus_Magnificent]

That's holding?

[u/staffdaddy_9]

Is this guy this good normally? wtf is going on

[u/DerrickWhiteMVP]

That’s a shit call

[u/staffdaddy_9 → u/DerrickWhiteMVP]

Grabbing them around the shoulder and slamming them is like textbook holding what are you talking about lol

[u/hchammer]

Can we get some refs in here to bail us out again? Wtf are we paying them for?

[u/Aubear11885 → u/hchammer]

Ask and you shall receive

[u/thatboiOsaka]

Beating ranked teams as an unranked is so hot right now

[u/SplakyD]

That wasn't a fucking hold!

[u/nfloos]

That’s not holding

[u/No-Stressss]

How is that holding haha. He got pancaked.

[u/ObjectiveAd571]

Is Gunner concussed?

[u/drew9982 → u/ObjectiveAd571]

He has to be. Him running off the field on a FG attempt is such a massive red flag. He needs to be pulled for his own health

[u/selfownlot → u/ObjectiveAd571]

Feels like yes

[u/Agreenbay33 → u/ObjectiveAd571]

Has been since the 1st quarter

[u/Pyrozooka0]

I love how both teams fans are so confident they’ve already lost this game

[u/ObjectiveAd571 → u/Pyrozooka0]

Not everyone had the luxury of playing Charleston Southern today 😒

[u/GetFuckedReedit]

"Stockton going deep!"  

Dawg nation: Crap.  

Bobo: you ain't no josh allen!!! 

[u/Kardinale]

Soft ass call come on

[u/aMiracleAtJordanHare → u/Kardinale]

That was definitely holding, my dude...

[u/RemoteAbalone8687 → u/Kardinale]

He tackled him

[u/CincyGam3r → u/RemoteAbalone8687]

He overpowered and pancakes him lmao not a hold and not a tackle 

[u/Mercer-Dawg → u/Kardinale]

He only tackled him

[u/Kardinale → u/Mercer-Dawg]

Pretty bad tackling form if that's the case

[u/159551771]

I think Stockton really got his bell rung on the first play. please put in the backup

[u/SpikyBoi096 → u/159551771]

He won’t and we’re going to lose for it. This shit is on Kirby

[u/159551771 → u/SpikyBoi096]

Yep I bet you're right

[u/Hunting_Doubles]

Georgia flairs you need to believe. Even if we lose go down with faith, some of you are pathetic

[u/Careless_Wishter]

Just run the ball and the clock, boys.

[u/Muffinnnnnnn]

Will Georgia lose to the USF Tigers?

[u/Iordofthethings]

I genuinely don’t know what holding is if that’s holding

[u/leftfemme]

we getting fucked up by a man named Nimrod I’m sick

[u/Maximum_Driver_1207]

Idk about that holding call but I’ll take it

[u/Master-Ad7325]

Can’t wait for all the SEC fans to tell us all their best team shitting their pants actually means their conference is the best

[u/Muffinnnnnnn → u/Master-Ad7325]

Vs a team who took 13 players and the entire coaching staff from USF

[u/davyblue1 → u/Master-Ad7325]

It just means more

[u/Turbulent-Damage-165]

Fuck you refs

[u/olmsted]

How often do announcers say that flags soar in?

[u/elaVehT]

Fuck yes finally we needed that

[u/Equal_Issue_1059]

Finally call a hold and its on us

[u/Pyro1934 → u/Equal_Issue_1059]

Sankey called the zebras in. We can't do it ourselves today lmao

[u/Life_Act_6887]

Differences between Texas and Georgia… Texas has played a harder schedule and Georgia has SEC ref plot armor.

[u/bringparka → u/Life_Act_6887]

georgia also beats texas. that's a pretty important difference

[u/Homothugkiller → u/Life_Act_6887]

The difference is also we kicked the crap out of Oklahoma and they beat you

[u/Potars → u/Life_Act_6887]

We both played OU and you see how that went

[u/olmsted → u/Life_Act_6887]

Also we can beat Oklahoma

[u/Citruspilled → u/Life_Act_6887]

Texas also had 2 losses

[u/SplakyD]

They blew that whistle early!

[u/Iordofthethings]

Oh my god how do you hold on a power run up the middle

[u/jmaN-]

Why we snapping with 20 seconds left

[u/aMiracleAtJordanHare]

Was he down or did they just rule forward progress had stopped?

Because that pile was still moving forward when they blew the whistle.

[u/another_bot_probably → u/aMiracleAtJordanHare]

Agreed. Some bs there

[u/Acsteffy]

Bleed it out

[u/rjl2021]

Just gotta run that ball effectively and keep the defense tired

[u/AnybodySeeMyKeys]

I LOVE MABSON.

[u/ToneOpposite9668]

Drive killer

[u/MakGuffey → u/ToneOpposite9668]

Don’t worry. Literally every single penalty you guys have a 12 yard run right after.

[u/AccountNumber0004]

Nimrod and Riddle, what are these fairytale ass names lol

[u/plateglass1]

It’s almost like he has a sickness. A mind injury. Brain damage?

[u/TrailerHitch19 → u/plateglass1]

Idk why but this got a laugh out of me. 

[u/JoeyZasaa]

I should bet on UGA not because I want them to win but because I've seen these implosions by underdogs, especially the Tigers, way too many times.

[u/PavWrestlinGifs → u/JoeyZasaa]

Issue is Stockton might be seeing ghosts

[u/8footpenguin]

That guy has earned a better first name today

[u/Pats2014]

Let’s get a FG

[u/SpikyBoi096]

Here comes the backbreaking drive. Sold our souls to beat Bama. Likely GGs but I’m not gonna say it’s certain

[u/littlea519]

3rd n 13? Screen pass... 3rd n 6? 50/50 deep ball.... we're witnessing a Bobo masterclass

[u/Actually_Im_a_Broom]

Blew the whistle way too early there.

[u/Electrical-Moment726]

I had Florida potentially beating Texas on my bingo list, but not Auburn beating Georgia. Wow. This might actually happen.

[u/thatboiOsaka]

Blowing that dead is so wack

[u/Embarrassed_Pain_935]

According to these guys Stockton is the greatest QB in the country

[u/XrayGuy08]

Yeah, this game is over.

[u/moneypilin_imcheesin]

Do I dare hope or….. 

[u/Aubear11885 → u/moneypilin_imcheesin]

No

[u/WisdomCow]

That whistle came so fast!

[u/MP227]

Funny, I could’ve sworn Nimrod was our QB

[u/elaVehT]

Tbh we need the crowd impact here. Put Auburn behind the sticks and get out of this drive

[u/SmasherGuy1020]

uhhhhh UGA u good?

[u/CJBulldogsss]

Not pulling Gunner is losing this game. Coaching malpractice

[u/159551771 → u/CJBulldogsss]

💯

[u/TrailerHitch19]

Wanna bet we see a ton of QB sneaks? 

[u/LightningDusty]

Nimrod is still a crazy last name lol

[u/TheRealMarvinator → u/LightningDusty]

My wife said she'd change her name, telling her dad "Dad, I'm sorry, I have to change my name because you're a Nimrod".

[u/Pyro1934 → u/LightningDusty]

I've been giggling every time they say it

[u/Antique_Patience9215]

Stockton can't stay in the game

[u/Lord_Lava_Nugget]

This is the most Mark Richt ass looking game I have seen in a long time 

[u/aMiracleAtJordanHare]

"It's Nimrod..."

It's always Nimrod, it seems.

[u/Big_Anteater_4834 → u/aMiracleAtJordanHare]

Is your nemesis a 'Bama-Longhorns' flair combo?

[u/aMiracleAtJordanHare → u/Big_Anteater_4834]

Aka "The Full Walmart"

[u/RedditPoster05 → u/aMiracleAtJordanHare]

The mighty hunter ?

[u/Kodyaufan2 → u/aMiracleAtJordanHare]

For better and for worse

[u/IrishPotatoHead]

Incredible regression game from Bobo

[u/PenguinKing15]

I don’t know how Stockton doesn’t have a concussion.

[u/Aubear11885 → u/PenguinKing15]

He tried to give himself one on the first play

[u/thnxbutnothnx]

Stockton is so mediocre.

[u/Lakelyfe09]

It’s officially the offenses fault today. Even after that god awful 2nd quarter from the defense.

[u/sjogrenian → u/Lakelyfe09]

Yep no touchdowns since the first two drives of the game is god awful. 

[u/drbiscuit832]

Is anyone in the SEC actually good? Many people are asking

[u/Trubisko_Daltorooni → u/drbiscuit832]

The more likely explanation is that there are too many good teams than that there are none.

[u/Deviah → u/drbiscuit832]

I feel like there's not a real dominant team in college football this year.

[u/Blookydook]

Georgia’s a phenomenal team, but there’s just been something wrong all year and I can’t tell what it is. They’ve just got a few more holes than usual.

[u/Autoimmunity → u/Blookydook]

We have a ton of injuries right now

[u/Capable_Mongoose_613]

Disgrace Georgia this is not like u smh

[u/Dangerous_Buddy_8538]

Auburn collapse is no match to Bobo playcalling

[u/CFPMVPStetsonBennett → u/Dangerous_Buddy_8538]

Inside zone run run pass is killing me

[u/NYCHoo]

Please Auburn. I need one game to go right for me today.

[u/rjl2021]

Lowk Auburn wouldn’t even have a chance if puglisi was in

[u/Careless-Roof-8339 → u/rjl2021]

Highkey. I’ve never seen Gunner play this bad.

[u/Homothugkiller]

Maybe stockton got a concussion at the beginning of the game, his decision making and ball placement has been insane and completely out of character

[u/righarakirir]

"Why are you making that choice??" HIS CHOICE MAKER HAS PINGPONGED INSIDE ITS BONE CASE

[u/FishnGritsnPimpShit]

We've settled into a nice little box and 1 on D. Keep working it.

[u/DinoJockeyTebow]

Notre Dame losing would be so beautiful

[u/lowes18]

Made too much gumbo if any of there them auburn fans in tally want some

[u/PerfectdarkGoldenEye → u/lowes18]

What about for a fellow owl. HOOT HOOT
