Sports Media Prognosticators:
Their names and the publication they represent, should posted along with their votes. There's no need to keep it "confidential" and it would add a little accountability. They may be forced by the public to defend their position throuout the season or get cancelled.
They need to put some skin in the game to be taken seriously.
I think this preseason all SEC thing went exactly to coach Smarts plan. He probably told all the Georgia media to not vote for Bulldawg players. He wants them to feel disrespected and mount that motivated chip on their shoulders.
I can picture the future quote: "After the 40 to 15 loss to Georgia in the 2022 National Championship game, Saban claimed the Tide would have won but Bama wide receiver Jermaine Burton was injured in the first quarter so QB Bryce Young's two pick sixes to Kelee Ringo were the difference in the game."
That's kinda my point. That people think it's possible to tell media members how to vote, is in and of itself corrupt. How can you claim any degree of integrity? These "lists" as they exist today, are absurd. They really mean...absolutely nothing. I would say the same thing if UGA was the recipient of generous voting.
For the record...you're probably right. LOL.
"Yummy rat poison", as Saban would say. Smart's gonna beat him at his own game and I love it.
IMO...BAMA had better, **** well, perform close to the declared expectations of the media...or the media has some questions they need to answer.
The voting doesn't line up with known BAMA weaknesses and expected UGA strengths. And, we're not talking, by just a little bit...but, by alot. The voting and oral opinions expressed by some, is extremely divergent from average expected reality and Fanbase opinion (BAMA and UGA). The Sportswriters that voted CAN'T BE that ignorant...so, there must have been an anterior motive.
If you were a Sportswriter at SEC Media Days and you were offered 5 or 10 grand to vote one way or the other...anonymously...wouldn't you do it? No skin off your nose. Right? It's not like you're having any real impact on a game or the season...it's just an "opinion". The season, still has to be played out. That's an easy call. LOL.
If an Alum, with a couple of Billion dollars, wants his team and their players voted on at Media days...why not blow a cool mill to swing the voting your school's way? It would help out with recruiting and hype, as well as increase contributions. And, you can find a way to write it off on your taxes.
A friend of mind, that owns his own business, told me he pays less taxes now that he's making $250 thousand than he did when he made $60 thousand, because of all the deductibles and write-offs.
People aren't s.t.u.p.i.d...they're just blind, and the news media takes pride in keeping us there. Real heroes! LOL. Why aren't they exposing these obvious farces. Where are the investigative reporters? If it's not on Twitter, Facebook, Buzzfeed or YouTube...it didn't happen. That's the extent of their investigation. A **** can do that job, now.
Why did you guys asterisk out the word...M.O.N.K.E.Y? Because I used it to reference, today's investigative reporters? You do know that, that particular animal is a common reference to a semi-intelligent copy-cat...right? Where is the offensive part?
I give up. LOL
Let the pads do the talking…
RB - Tank Bigsby, Auburn:1st team All SEC.
RB Kendall Milton, higher rated recruit who wanted Bigsby to be his wingman at UGA: not mentioned.
That’s enough BB material for Milton. Go Dawgs!
