Ole Miss is not doing enough. Going for two was dumb. Gotta kill them while you can and take the easy points when available.
Yeah agreed. I could see if it was later in the first half. They have to get The QB, Chambliss involved with the QB option. Georgia is not going to let Lacy keep running uo the middle. They're too good.

You're amazing John, thank you so much. You're an amazing man, I really hope you know that. I think Ive said this before, but you are truly one of a kind. Happy new years to you, and of course, I've also got your back if you ever need it as well. ❤️

The same goes for the rest of the Smorgasborg. Yall are amazing humans, and I'm eternally grateful for everyone I've met on here so far. I hope everyone has a great 2026!
Thanks Walker, you're a smorgasbord cornerstone. Thank you for everything, God Bless my friend

After spending the last few days doing as many water changes as possible, I think it was too late. My duncan looks like it's going to bail out, my final torch died and I think my remaining two hammers are on their way out as well. Some corals are doing phenomenal, while many others are dropping dead like flies. It's quite sad honestly. Because my clowns host the duncan, I'm thinking of getting a bubble tip anemone for them from my LFS. Do you think if I put it on a rock separate from the main rock work it will stay there? On a side note - Capital Corals, a local fish store/research facility/school, run by a phenomenal group of people is struggling. I don't want to mention why directly, but I'm sure you can piece together why. They are struggling to find funds to keep going because of a few events and decisions completely out of their control. They now ship corals out nationwide, so if you're looking to order corals, please check out his website Worldofreefs.com.
