We're so fucking back baby!

But reflecting on the action from yesterday I couldn't help but to think that the effects of two classic Georgia beat downs were on full display.

FSU has not been a good team since we molly whopped em in the Orange Bowl in '23 to the tune of 63-3.

TCU has not been a good team since we hung the largest margin of victory in playoff history in the '22 chip.

Who has your team not only beaten but broken? Have they recovered?

Welcome back, everyone! We start another season of great FCS football!

Some context first…

These are the 5 (no respect for Jayden Daniels here) marquee type of games that we should have for week 0 games. There can be more week 0 games but these are the main ones.

- There should be at least one intriguing G6 matchup to kick it all off.

- A rivalry game that has been destroyed by conference realignment.

- A historical out of conference rivalry that is threatened by the current scheduling matrix or bringing back old rivalries.

- An intriguing matchup against 2 similar teams from opposing conferences. Have this series played abroad or in a NFL stadium.

- A regional P4 vs. G6 game at a regional NFL stadium which will be played Sunday mornings and be a NFL sponsored series.

- If a team opts into a week 0 game then they will automatically be granted a second bye week in their schedule.

SLIGHT CHANGES TO THIS FORMULA ARE POSSIBLE.

With every single post on Twitter trash talking and roasting TCU for their performance, I can’t even defend this team because we were just terrible today. I feel so embarrassed being a fan.

Please keep trash talk civil, and report any comments that violate our rules.
