Excellent defense by Georgia in the first half.

 

Also, the time of possession is also overwhelmingly in their favor ........ hence, the Alabama defense has been laboring, while the Georgia defense has been resting. Georgia has run 47 plays from scrimmage, while Alabama has only run 24 (one of which was just a kneel-down prior to the end of the half.)

Bad no-call right there.

The Alabama player pushed the Georgia quarterback's head WELL AFTER the play was over, and they called nothing.

 

It should have been a 15-yard penalty, which would have put Georgia deep into Alabama territory at the 24 yardline. Instead, they had to punt the ball 2 plays later.

Yet it was Georgia who fell apart in the 4th quarter.

They had numerous chances to close the game on both sides of the ball, and they didn't come through.

 

Now the game is headed to overtime.

Tagovailoa was very impressive.  Alabama looks to be set at QB for the next few years.  Two freshmen WRs and freshman RB all looked good, too.  Saban is quite a recruiter.

Everyone tries to use the line that you'll ride the bench if you sign with Alabama. I think that Championship game proved all that to be a bunch of bull. Four true freshman on the field on that last play alone. Roll Tide!

    • Elias spending the $25M early, Roster Resource has us at $122M tonight, 19th in MLB. If we close Burnes, we hit 13th for a minute.    Any AAV between 29 and 44 lands us between SFG at $167M and BOS at $150M. That'd just be a momentary crest - we land Burnes to make $65M in new 2025 salary and we're near done while most of the Top 50 free agents still have jobs to get. But to the OP point, that'd set us at ~$160 with all the studs the cheapest they'll ever be again in 2025.    We will get to reconfigure about $35M next winter when Eflin, Mullins and Sanchez walk, and of course there's the calculation/hope O'Neill plays well enough to opt out. I do think the O's financial analysts deserve a little credit for finding a contract balance where the CLUB is hoping the player opts out too.
    • It's not SA vs TO or the platoon, it's 2024 ( Hayes, Cowser, Ced, and Tony vs Cowser, Ced Heston and TO and Maybe Mateo. All things being equal (injuries), I bet the 2025 outfield.
    • Adley needs to turn his trend line around to justify roughly 20% of core payroll.  2025 will be an important season for him IMO.
    • Thx for laying this out. I would also add that if think about budget in terms over multiple years (any +/- carried over), there definitely is ample room or excess in 2026 as it currently stands with nearly $70M likely dropping off (estimates per roster resource) $18M Eflin $8.5M Sanchez $8M Seranthony $8M OHearn $5.6M Soto $8.7M Mullins $3.2M Mateo $2.5M no buyouts of Kimbrel + Jimenez  $5.7M Mounty (likely to be moved by 2026) $3.2M Urias (likely to be moved by 2026) A lot of those $$$ could be backfilled with pre-arb internal guys, leaving ample room to supplement and/or carry over to more than offset future years climbing arb increases.
    • last i checked, it was one plus a throw in. When they become throw ins, because the GM owes the former prospect playing time, they are no longer solid.
    • Now if someone could find a list of Boras clients with respect to their WAR, that would be interesting. Pre FA and after.
    • Eric Longenhagen's chat today on Ethan mentions a flaw that EL regards as so damaging as to reduce him to mid 1st round. 12:45 Refugee: Appreciate your insight on Over-Slot recently. Do you consider Ethan Holliday’s swing flaw being identified this early something that works for (he’s not even 18 yet) or against him? 12:45 Eric A Longenhagen: Fugee is talking about this podcast appearance: Ep. 125: Jim Callis and Eric Longenhagen join the show. A Draft Lottery Preview. | Patreon 12:47 Eric A Longenhagen: I’m not sure it’s correctable, I think his hands just work in a way that leaves him very vulnerable to many fastballs up/away. I have him more middle of the first round. 72% contact guy on the showcase circuit, hit .240 and slugged .380 when you add up his entire multi-year showcase sample. Love the raw power potential, don’t think the performance merits a top 5 pick. But the Colorado/Holliday connection and Washington’s willingness to take guys like Elijah Green looms.
