… here’s why.
“Yeah, I was wanting to get a real shower, not a Gatorade bath, because I want to get focused on Alabama,” Smart said. “They got a five, six-hour head start. To be honest with you guys, I’m not interested in celebrating that. We’ll look back on that win and that’ll be great, but we’re focused on the task ahead and that’s the objective and that’s what our guys — they worked their tail off for three to four weeks to get this opportunity, and it was a one-game season, and now it’s another one-game season. I’m not focused on Gatorade baths.” [Emphasis added.]
The GOAT with a six-hour head start? That ain’t fair, PAWWWLLL!!! They should play both semis at the same time!
Okay, I keed, I keed… I think.
Greatest of all time slot…GO DAWGS!

When I heard CKS say that it shocked me at first but I definitely agree with him in retrospect. 5-6 hours of work starting your prep routine isn’t nothing.

But did he subtract the first half hour of real-time it took before Saban knew his opponent ?

I’m not surprised. I’m no football insider, but I do know that coaches, successful or not, are 25/8/370 workaholics.
Where do they get that extra time? They just require time to stop.

It’s kind of like being a President of the United States…100% constant attention and being “on”.
Well, I’ll rephrase…kind of like most former Presidents of the US.

I watched the entire game on the SEC network which kept Kirby on screen all night in the top left corner. The broadcast crew was the local Georgia radio crew. Scott Howard still screams too much. Cool note from DJ on the side line after the RB pass for a TD. He said that play was 0 for 8 in practice last week.
Watching Kirby full time on the big screen is very different than seeing his back from my seat or the occasional TV shot. When the defense came to the sideline Friday it was Kirby going off and Lanning nodding his head mostly.
Never in my lifetime has a Georgia coach wanted to win as bad as Kirby Smart. Winning for Georgia and as Kirby said for these fans is what matters. Other than Lord Saban there is no better college coach. Now it’s time to beat the teacher.

Two things:
I had absolutely no idea that SECN had such a thing, and am so p*ssed that I didn’t know. I had no over the air radio that would work yesterday, and no internet radio that would let me sync Scott Howard up with broadcast TV like I usually do, so I was stuck with the Yankee idiots on the TV.
If you watched coverage with Kirbs on the screen the whole time, I’m quite sure that a less than advanced lip-reader could find themselves kicked out of a bar full of Marines for foul mouthed-ness. He is most definitely “epithetically motivated” during games. He could make Andrew Dice Clay blush in a truck stop.
(No hate here…I actually think that was one of the things that CMR lacked, the great man that he is, bless his soul).
Regular, and even great football coaches can be Chaplains too, as CMR proved.
Natty-winning coaches, though, have to be walking examples of many people: drill instructors, teachers, Dad’s, and then have to scream and swear like a dragon who eats fire and brimstone with a napalm chaser.
I’m glad that we have one of those now.

The problem with watching it that way was that you lost a lot is screen to the side line view. I have a 65 in tv and I swear when I watched it for Alabama the game screen was more like a forty inch size so I watched the regular broadcast for the game.

The UGA sports app still allows you to stream live game broadcasts. Just have to sync it up with your live TV coverage – not too difficult. Unfortunately the radio apps restrict access to live and postgame sports. I’d rather have a full screen of the field with the radio coverage on my Bluetooth speaker than have 1/3 of my screen dedicated to stats and coaches.

Think of the number of people who would love one more hour per day to work on their passion.
How much better can a musician be with an extra hour of practice each day? How much better is an athlete with an extra hour of skill training each day? How much better is a relationship if you give it an extra hour of work each day?
For many people, the statement may sound ridiculous… but not many people achieve at the highest level.

Post season coaching rule #1, if u win the SEC champ game, you’d have the #1 seed, the #1 venue choice & the 6 hour head start on the 2/3 seed team, while at the same time eliminating the same SEC team from the CFP.
