Week 0-1 ACC/FBS Games for Aug 23 - Sept 1

[orangefog]

They just said Colorado's new turf has wood in it and i'm just imagining splinters.

Using an organic material in the turf sounds like a bad idea

Yeah, that's understandable, but he looks VERY average. Maybe it kicks in, maybe it doesn't. But, GTech just took the lead looking like crap. Let's see what Salter does now. Maybe they were being conservative with a lead. Now they trail. We should see if he is a leader or not now.

Did you watch the first half of ISU vs KSU? Both those QBs are considered to be quite good and it was an ugly first half for both of them. Give him at least a full game.

The ACC looking pretty terrible so far... Lol

I get all that, but that doesn't mean Salter is any good. I am looking at decision making, first and foremost. not impressed so far. That can change.

Rushing Salter the first two plays tells me that they don't trust his passing. It's going to get him inured.

 

[orangefog]

that was nice, they gave him time and he found the open receiver. Nice.

58, the colorado center just got absolutely torched on that third down lol.

It doesn’t mean he is bad either that’s my point.

I can't argue that. But, he hasn't looked good yet either. His team has been gifted 3 TOs and they are tied. I know it may take time, but a review based on both teams so far, Salter doesn't look that good. They definitely can figure it out. But, I give the edge to GTech to be tied with 3 TOs

Giving up three turnovers, GT needs to be happy they are up three at the half.

They was my point regarding ISU vs KSU … both good QBs and started poorly and if you based your opinion of them based on first half performance they weren’t stellar in the second half they were much better. I’m not a fan of his throwing motion though.

 

[Yeti]

I think both of the offensive lines are atrocious and it's affecting the entire offenses lol. Georgia Tech's best offense has been quick screens. Kaiden Salters hasn't had a moment to breathe.

It's all good, I am just judging the performance thus far. I am not too proud to adjust moving forward. I do think GTech pulls away. They couldn't have played worse. They handed CO the first TD. And good field position afterward with 2 TOs, but CO didn't do anything with it. Assuming GTech has settled down, I expect GTech to keep moving the ball supplementing QB runs (hoping King doesn't get injured), GTech is hard to control with what I have observed to be a weak defense for CO. That puts Salter in a position to have to pass, and so far he has proven to be a better runner than passer. If GTech can get up 2 scores, it will be that much harder for Salter to run the offense.

Didn’t some expert say West Point was the best FBS I NY State

They're in the Top 3

Wake Forest is going to hold on against Kennesaw State, but they might not win a conference game this year. Yeesh!

 

[Yeti]

I'm laughing at that wake forest score.

Yes they are !!

Ugh you can’t online bet in Georgia. These Southern nanny states are the worst.

 

[Cuse On 3]

lol, salter is ASS. Dodged a bullet there

 

[Entropic]

lol, salter is ASS. Dodged a bullet there

I don't think he's completed a pass further than 5 yards past the line.

 

[wiseman3]

Haynes King looks dead out there after every play. No way he gets through this year healthy. What a warrior though

And then he rips off a 45 yard TD! Baller
