@Paradis remember when Najee Harris wasnt in your top 5 RB's?

❤️

 

I’ve considered finding room for him recently.

We lost to Bama and Florida.  We didn't deserve it.  Florida lost 3 games.  A&M lost to Bama also.  ND deserved this shot this year by beating Clemson during the season.  I just think Bama is at a different level than everyone else this year.

Agreed. We really just weren’t a good team this season. I don’t think we deserve anything this year. Georgia on a good year doesn’t beat Cincy 22-21 in the last minute.

I've been fully in the Etienne is better camp all year but Harris has taken things to another level the last 4 or 5 games.

Etienne has Dalvin Cook potential. 

Najee Harris has Adrian Peterson ability. 

Najee is one of the top 5 RB recruits of ALL TIME 

I pray we draft him with Seattle's pick

Kidding aside, maybe his size makes him drop to late 1.

That’s what I’m praying for. I know it’ll never happen but I dream of a world where the Jets trade back, getting a 1st next year, select TE Pitts then Smith with SEA’s pick and Harris/Etienne at the top of two. 

Harris, Pitts, Smith-Mims-Crowder 

take a moment to imagine that. Really imagine that offense 

[HawkeyeJet]

Don't think he's draft eligible yet, but every time I've watched ND this year I've been super impressed with Kyren Williams.  Great vision.  Runs tough.

24-21.  Don't forget the safety by Ojulari on the last play.  What a beast he was today.

I would not put too much weight on that game.  We were without about 9 guys due to opt outs, transfers and such.  This was a big game for Cincy, I was surprised their defensive front handled our OL as well as they did, but the game meant more to them than us.  Happy we pulled out the W, but not putting too much into the result.

ND just does not belong in the playoff. They are here because they beat Clemson without Lawrence.  The selection committee should have taken that into account.  Alabama is going to win this game by 30 or more points.  

And I could be the QB for Alabama and they would still win today.  Mac Jones can't be evaluated with this ridiculous talent surrounding him.  

I’m not buying that narrative. LSU had just as much talent last year- Justin Jefferson was the #2 there, Jamarr Chase is a top 5 pick and Edwards Helaire was also a first round pick. Plus look at all the great players Tua had on those teams too. Neither of those QB’s has had a higher passer rating than Jones

He’s a 20 year old red shirt freshman.  Draft eligible after next season.

with sam darnold at qb they would be bottom 10 in the league

[Lith]

With all these cameras covering this game, they don't have a view from the other sideline.

 

Edit.  OK so they do.  May have made it it, but if the standard is clear and convincing, the call has to stand.

[Anthony Jet]

That’s a TD. Not sure if they overturn it

He looks like an elite pro back as a sophomore. Totally intrigued. 

[Lith]

ND needed that. 

Now, if they can just find a way to get a defensive stop, maybe they can stabilize this game and make Bama sweat a bit.

They need soemthing out of their defense.  They ain't winning a track meet.

Any good offense should put up ~24+ pts on Bama....

[PS17]

[Beerfish]

Nice catch by billingsly.

Devonta smith is unstoppable.  He is better than Jeudy or Lamb from last year.

Yup..just like that it’s 21-7

[Beerfish]

This is without a very good player in Jaylen waddle.

Who cares? Were set for years. Next can slide into a juggernaut

Yup.  But you are going to need to score 40+ to beat them

[Paradis]

Marry me Smith, you son of a bitch 

[IndianaJet]

 

[HawkeyeJet]

I would not be surprised at all to see Sark get mentioned for NFL OC jobs this off-season.  Bama has thoroughbreds, but Sark is a tremendous play caller.

Wasn’t a popular take when I said it last year... and that’s not taking anything away from the other two.

Smith always popped off the screen when watching Ruggs and Jeudy tape.

He has the same body as milliner though... I don’t want to overreact but it’s a concern

Prolly true.

For me, (Bama fan) hard to watch them be so bad on D.

Georgia is built around a strong defense and adequate offense.  And we celebrated a Peach Bowl championship today. 

You are not going to get much sympathy from me if you "only" win 41-24.

Man Smith can really play. I typically don’t love a WR at 2 but he’s really good. Smith and Harris in the first round would transform this offense
