Week 12 was everything college football should be — perfect weather, a raucous Athens atmosphere, and a prime-time beatdown of Texas that turned Sanford Stadium into a celebration. Josh, Laurence, Ganz, and special guest Shaun Traub break down why Saturday was a “10 out of 10” day and how Georgia delivered its most complete performance of the season.

The guys dive deep into Kirby Smart’s brilliant fourth-quarter aggression, the perfectly timed onside kick that broke Texas’s soul, and the rising Heisman momentum behind Gunner Stockton after a five-touchdown masterpiece. They also spotlight a rapidly improving Georgia defense, the emergence of young playmakers, and what C.J. Allen’s knee injury means going forward.

From Shane Beamer’s historical meltdown to Lane Kiffin flight-tracker chaos, to ACC nonsense, to whether Georgia should want to play in the SEC Championship — this episode hits every bit of the Week 12 drama. And yes, the shirtless bros, belt-slapping kids, and the viral Georgia coed all make an appearance.

Another heater in the books. Another sucker bet cashed. The boys are cooking

Opening Reactions — “A Perfect 10 out of 10 Day”

  • Tailgating at Lake Hartwell and Athens delivers elite fall weather, food, and vibes.
  • Night games? Elite atmosphere. Terrible recovery time.
  • Traffic meltdown leaving Athens sparks some late-night Ganz rage texts.
  • In-stadium experience finally earns praise — loud, coordinated, and electric.

Georgia 35, Texas 10 — Belt to Ass

Game Flow

  • Georgia opens with an early defensive stand that felt like “being up +4.”
  • Mid-game lull (“the middle hour”) before the dam breaks.
  • Turning point:
    • Back-to-back 4th-down conversions
    • Perfectly executed surprise onside kick
    • TD on the short field — lights out.


Kirby Smart Puts on a Masterclass

  • Out-schemes Sark and attacks every Texas weakness.
  • Fourth-down aggression sets tone.
  • The onside kick: staff wanted it early; Kirby saved it for the kill shot.

Texas Reactions

  • Arch Manning looked solid but outmatched.
  • Drops killed drives; Georgia’s physicality broke their spirit.
  • Texas finishes three games vs. Georgia with just 86 rushing yards total.

Gunner Stockton — Heisman in Sight

  • 5 TDs on 83% completion.
  • As many touchdowns as incompletions.
  • Now top-5 nationally in total TDs.
  • Outplayed Arch with the Mannings in the building.
  • Selected as the Manning Award Star of the Week.
  • Better numbers than Stetson after 10 games in 2022.

“He’s an absolute savage.”

Offensive Notes

    • Bobo’s creativity finally unleashed:
    • Roll-outs
    • Motion chaos
    • Beautiful schemed TD to Lawson Lucky
    • Fake-pitch TD to London Humphreys
    • Zachariah Branch = massive eye-candy decoy who changes defensive geometry.


Defensive Dominance

  • Pass rush peaking: Gabe Harris, Johnson, Zayden Walker all starring.
  • Young rotation thriving: Demello Jones, Justin Williams, Chris Cole.
  • Didn’t even notice C.J. Allen was out until after the game — depth is that good.

Injury Report (Shaun’s Medical Breakdown)

  • C.J. Allen: Likely Grade 1 MCL sprain.
  • Expect him held out until playoffs.
  • Timeline: 3–5 weeks depending on bye scenario.
  • Lawson Luckie back and fully effective.

Should Georgia WANT to Play in the SEC Championship?

Short answer from all the guys: No.

Reasons:

  • No playoff benefit under 12-team format.
  • Only risks: injuries + film exposure.
  • Georgia could lose home-playoff advantage but would still be in.
  • A&M or Alabama slipping would take the decision out of Georgia’s hands anyway.

Around the SEC / National Landscape

Shane Beamer Meltdown

  • Blows 30–3 halftime lead to Texas A&M.
  • Coaching antics, halftime dancing, delusional pressers = “complete clown.”
  • Should’ve been “left in College Station.”

Lane Kiffin Smoke Everywhere

  • LSU? Florida? Ole Miss ultimatum?
  • Jimmy Sexton chaos.
  • Early Signing Day pressure.
  • Panel leans: he ultimately stays, but the drama is elite entertainment.

ACC Dumpster Fire

  • Tech and Virginia leading the race.
  • Miami has best CFP ranking but low odds.
  • Notre Dame ranking politics stir frustration.
  • ACC champion gets in… but nobody trusts them.

Georgia Tech Watch

  • Tech flirting with disaster weekly but keeps winning.
  • Haynes King dark-horse Heisman chatter.

Charlotte Preview

  • Line: Georgia -44.5
  • Kirby is 0–15 covering >40-point spreads.
  • Expect:
    • Ugly game
    • Vanilla play-calling
    • Mass subs
    • Puglisi + Hezekiah at QB in the 4th

  • Score predictions: from 38–10 to 49–7.

Sucker Bet of the Week (Three Straight Hits!)

Pick:

  • Florida +3.5 vs. Tennessee
  • The Gators have quit… but the line is weird enough to make it a trap.

Jimbo of the Week

Winner: Shane Beamer

  • Historic collapse.
  • Terrible decisions.
  • Cringey pressers.
  • Possible immediate firing candidate.
