Playoffs or bust

Didn't Athlon rank Orgeron like the 80th best coach in the country a week ago? Can they make up their minds? Do we suck or do we not suck?

Every fricking year these dumbass sites say we're going to get to the playoffs or something like that. We've sucked for 5 years now, I bleed P&G but damn let's actually do something for once instead of these stupid hype articles that put our players and coaches on some pedistal like they've earned something.

Big 10 must going to really suck if 3 teams get in.

Bawser•82 months

Well it's set then. Tickets on sale yet?

Would be a very successful season if we make it to a new years 6 with all the question marks we have coming into the season. No doubt I want us to go to the playoffs, but with a new OC, replacing 2 first round dbs, 1 proven receiver who might not be good enough to be a #1 receiver, replacing a senior mlb, and doubts on the o line would be quite the accomplishment.

The only real problem is the QB. With the new look offense we alel need a playmaker at QB. I'd rather go with a younger guy and let him develop over the year ala redshirt freshmen Trace Mcsorley and Sam Darnold from Penn St and USC respectively last year.

I would take that in a heartbeat...One heartbeat! I would drive out there and when LSU whoop SC arse I can shove it in all of my SC friends faces

With the 81st ranked coach. Got it.

To clarify, this comment was a knock on Athlon and their inconsistency and not on Coach O.
