that UGA team was the best "lazy" team I've ever seen. Top to bottom, coaches to players, all season long they did a lot of looking around for somebody else to win the game. Then Lsu scared them for a quarter, then Osu had them terrified and it awoke the demon in them

[@MattLovesVinyl]

Shhh... [whispers] it IS the talent discrepancy, but it's not about the starters. It's about how Georgia, on both offense and defense, rotates at almost every single position group, and the players they bring in are just as good as the starters. It's the depth. You're not playing 22 players. You're playing 44 players. Really, closer to 66 players. And they're all, all 66 of them, better than your 22.

The stars aligned for the Dawgs in 2021-2022 in a lot of ways and it’s not necessarily their fault it’s just how it was dealt. TCU we’re considered frauds all season and they lose their CC game and get out in regardless. They go on to beat a grossly overrated Michigan team that’s won one bowl game in the last decade and proceeds forward. TCU never belonged and that was a gimme NC and that doesn’t help after OSU choked a basic FG that would of advanced them.

I think the biggest reason this was so bad wasn’t that TCU wasn’t good. On the contrary they really were a very good team with lots of talent. The problem was TCU had a tendency to start off games slow, they were a great second half team The problem is Georgia was so much better than everyone else in the country, TCU could get away with starting slow against literally anyone else but Georgia just kept the foot down and once TCU was behind early there was no coming back

Something overlooked is TCU’s 3-3-5 defense. It is reliant on the DB’s being able to come up, keep containment and make tackles. A two TE set with Darnell Washington as an extra blocker was the difference. TCU was so worried about the TEs setting the edge and getting 10 yard runs that the DBs started cheating up. That led to play actions where TE Brook Bowers was wide open. Not saying TCU would’ve beat OSU, but 3-3-5 is very effective against single TE sets, especially if that TE isn’t 6’7 280lbs like Washington.

The depth was the difference. TCU doesn't have the guys to go for 60 minutes against a recruiting juggernaught. They were a tough group that was down in nearly every game they played, and won all but one close game. They deserved to be there, and Georgia simply was the better more talented team.

[@270calex]

The blue chip ratio is getting insane for the most elite level teams and it is really starting to show. I think last year's TCU team had like 30-40% blue chip ration, where Georgia's was +80%. I think only Georgie, Bama, and maybe A&M have blue chip ratios that high. I hate it because it creates greater disparity in college football, akin to when the all-stars in the NBA combine to make super teams to make the road to getting a championship all the easier. It cheapens the win and the dominance when the deck is so incredibly stacked in the top dog's favor. In that respect, with NIL being unrestricted and unregulated, college football is more like MLB than the NFL right now. No rules or structure to promote parity, like salary caps or drafts, so instead we have the teams with the biggest pocket books buying success, meaning Georgia and Bama operate more like the Yankees than any NFL team.

Idk I’d argue 2022 TCU wasn’t really setup for a good shot. You contain the QB in the pocket and prevent long yardage passes and you kinda shutdown TCUs entire offense. My question would be in simulation what would 2022 Georgia vs 2010 TCU be like. Cuz 2010 TCU is undoubtedly a better team than 2022 TCU. They were G5 and had less “blue chip players” but had more players drafted to the NFL. Despite inconsistency, I’d still rather have Andy Dalton as QB than Max. But 2010 TCU was a defensive juggernaut. They had prime era Garry Patterson and a hall of fame DC in Dick Bumpass, on top of 8 Defensive NFL draft picks. Georgia would have to contend with both rush and pass offense with arguably better QB and RBs and an unquestionably better defense. 2010 TCU stopped a Russel Wilson, Monte Ball, JJ Watt B10 Champ Wisconsin in their tracks forcing a 42ppg 480ypg offense to just 19 points total and 1 TD and a scoreless second half. I’d argue at the very least it would have been a much more interesting game

These aren’t crazy homer reporters, either. They just said it was patently obvious that Georgia was bigger and stronger as a team. Does that mean they’ll necessarily win the game? No. But at some point it becomes about the Jimmy’s and Joe’s, not the X’s and O’s. And if all the reporters noticed it, the TCU players noticed it too. They were intimidated before gameday, and that’s not a knock on TCU. It’s just human nature.

When your team is collectively an entire star worse than your opponent talentwise, it doesn't matter at all how good of a gameplan you have.

Second I feel like once Georgia woke up after halftime we lost. Kirby had to have chew them out and woken the dogs pun intended and sealed our fate because they weren’t gonna do that in the Natty.

Much love to TCU & fans 💜 🖤 🐸

[@grondhero]

As a TCU fan, I appreciate that and hope we meet again, just with a different result. I think TCU was awestruck at being on that stage (body language at the coin toss was a big reveal). And UGA was simply a professional-skilled team playing college kids. We saw Dykes learn from the K-State loss in the Big12 Championship and I hope he learned from this as well. One of our biggest problems is that we're a small school (~10,000 students) with a small stadium (47k, even UTEP is bigger). Hopefully we'll be able to keep recruiting and playing better. God bless and hope to see you this coming season! ✝🐸

Yes, I saw it coming. I think the 4 weeks to prepare is a factor, but I don't think it was quite as all-encompassing a factor as you seem to think. On paper UM, tOSU, and especially UGA were significantly better teams than TCU, both in performances and in talent level. But the game isn't played on paper. TCU did significantly outcoach Michigan, but it wasn't just their superior preparation, Harbaugh laid an all-time egg. Running a double reverse from the 1-yard line on 4th and goal... who does that, it's a hugely bad percentage play with very little upside. And there were a number of other egregious coaching errors on the Maize and Blue side. If Michigan had simply taken the approach Bama did against Cincinnati, and run the ball down their throat over and over again, their superior size and athleticism would have worn TCU out and they'd have won easily. The simple fact of the matter is that game had fluke written all over it. But I do agree it didn't matter who won between UGA and tOSU, either team would have won easily because they wouldn't have shot themselves in the foot dozens of times like UM did. TCU was way out of their weight class and they got exposed. If they'd been given 4 weeks to prepare they wouldn't have lost by 58, instead it would have been 38.

TCU split its series against Kansas state and slaughtered a Texas team whose backups Alabama survived by one point.

OSU had a bad loss which I’ll note their closest win was Northwestern which was a bad win. The way the system is designed, it’s tough to put a two loss team over a one loss team with 6 Top 25 wins. Was Alabama better than TCU? Perhaps. But the playoffs were designed to make sure the best two teams play - and TCU beat Michigan which no one can argue they didn’t deserve to be there.

The bottom line is the way the current system is set up creates a sort of college football oligarchy. It’s big enough for the crème de la crème college football programs (Alabama/Georgia/Ohio State) to all get in, but small enough to ensure all 3 stay at the top. This allows those 3 programs to amass most of the blue chip talent because they are the only schools who can guarantee a shot at a national championship. So when TCU runs into one of those 3 schools playing for all the marbles, they just get bludgeoned. Hopefully two changes will serve to break up this monopoly. First, NIL. There are a lot of schools in states with lesser instate talent that have more money than they know what to do with. Schools like Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Michigan, Tennessee, Auburn. If UGA, Bama, OSU only get half the number of five star players they currently get, it will make a huge difference. But bigger than that is the playoffs expanding. Now, the playoff club isn’t as exclusive. You only have to win 9 or 10 games to have a shot at a national championship. That will make a huge difference.
