Davidson offensive lineman thanks Oprah, Winston Churchill in splendid NFL Draft announcement

NAILED IT.

Barclay Briggs might have dropped the best NFL Draft announcement of all time, and it’s not even close.

Davidson College offensive lineman Barclay Briggs, whose name sounds like it’s straight out of a Key & Peele skit, announced his intent to enter the 2024 NFL Draft on Tuesday with one of the wildest ways to announce a decision we’ve ever seen.

With the caption “Acts 2:15” (a possible reference to a verse about not being drunk), Briggs shared the next step in his playing career by saying that despite being a career backup who only played during blowouts or when starters got injured, he is ready for the next step.

He then launches into a list of important people to thank that included (*checks notes*) Oprah and Winston Churchill because who else would you have on such an essential list?

This is tremendous.

Why Davidson Will Win

No one does a better job of keeping the chains moving.

Davidson (4-2) leads the FCS during this spring session in third down conversions, hitting on 56% of its chances thanks to a running game that leads the nation averaging 293 yards per game to go along with a passing attack that takes advantage of its chances down the field.

The Wildcats want to run and keep on motoring with Tyler Phelps a dangerous dual-threat quarterback who knows how to keep it all going.

However …

Why Jacksonville State Will Win

Jacksonville State (7-2) has one of the nation’s best run defenses.

The line is aggressive, the linebackers get all over the field, and the D has allowed just 2.6 per carry and 81 yards per game. Davidson is a different animal with what it does on the ground, but JSU has a running game, too.

The Gamecocks have a balanced offense, but it’s able to average 194 rushing yards per game with several options who can get moving to go along with a dangerous downfield passing game.

What’s Going To Happen

Davidson has one trick that it does really, really well, but production-wise, Jacksonville State has the ability to match yard for yard and do a bit more defensively.

The Gamecock D is great on third downs, and the Wildcat D isn’t. Davidson won’t be able to control the clock and the game like it’ll want to.
