Now it's just getting weird

Except for all the Alabama teams without great QBs that won it. Hawiian guy and Jones being the exceptions. A
I'll tell you what Riley probably said "Oh crap" when Dan Lanning took the Oregon job. Lanning is going to do things just like Smart has and Smart copied Saban. The only thing Lanning needs to do different is get a qb. Oregon can bring in plenty of talent to give USC plenty of problems.
Tua and Jones were first round draft picks. I’d consider them elite
You don’t need elite QB play, but it certainly helps. Depending on the surrounding cast on offense and defense, good QB play or even decent QB play that minimizes mistakes will can it done. UGA shouldn’t be used as the rule, but it is an example that it can be done without a Heisman candidate or future NFL starter at QB as are several of the Bama teams that won prior to Tua.
My grandfather was a lifelong perv and Playboy subscriber from the 1st issue until around 99'. He actually gave me the whole damn collection that was in boxes in his garage. The Marilyn Monroe issue was not in there though but for the most part most issues were there. I had gotten married right after that so it became kind of an awkward situation at my house. I researched some of the pricing guides and unless those mags were in tip top shape in covers etc, most of them really weren't worth much, I ended up getting rid of them. I did like to go back and look at some of the Pigskin previews and see how accurate those predictions were.
You do need elite QBs. There was a time where you didn’t. When Saban first got to Alabama you didn’t need an elite QB, but the game had changed over the last decade. You can be good without a QB but you won’t reach the top without one.
Elite is better but a good college QB can still get it done if the support cast is elite. If anything this year seemed to show a trend back toward defense and the run game. Obviously it’s one year, if it may have been more of a result of the Covid year and everything that came with it.
I don’t think it sold, but is definitely getting a makeover. Sad.😉 Just saw an article today. Will look for it.
My grandpa bought me the infamous Farrah bathing suit poster when I was a teenager. At 57 now I still have it (in my attic of course).
Apparently it sold to his neighbor:
The Playboy Mansion has almost finished massive renovations
The 29-room Holmby Hills mansion, in Los Angeles, was sold to billionaire Daren Metropoulos in 2016 for $100million.
I posted this above. The Hef took his last blue pill in 2017. No more parties at the mansion.

Young actually impressed me for the most part in that game. I thought he was an over-rated heisman winner getting pumped up for being Alabama's QB surrounded by 5star studs at every position in a year when noone really stood out as the 'best' player in CFB. But watching that game, his WRs dropped or just missed a ton of passes that were right on the money. After watching that game, I thought Bama's offensive talent was average with a very accurate QB who hit his spots more often than not.
Young is a star no doubt and I think (not shockingly) losing his number 1 receiver before the NC and losing his number 2 receiver in the second half of the NC really hurt him. Looks like he could benefit by putting on a little weight in the off season but i bet he’ll be in NYC again next year regardless.
The poise he showed all season as a freshman was unbelievable. I watched a few games this year from start to finish and each time was thoroughly impressed with him. He reminds me a lot of Russell Wilson. Not overly athletic but can make plays with his legs when need be.
