Both of O’s were to Bama, one of them coming in what hardly counts as a legitimate season. No excuse for 2018 though.

In his first year, Kelly has already squeezed out an egg the magnitude of which was only produced twice in the last 20 years.

For all the “O did this” crowd, I thought it was worth pointing out that aside from two games against a dominant program, we were always in every game in Death Valley into the 4th quarter.

Even in the most dysfunctional periods of the last two regimes, we weren’t getting boat raced at home.

Neither had a team with the holes this one has

And O is the reason we're where we are.

Imagine how bad it would be without the transfers CBK brought in.

We had 39 guys on scholarship in our bowl game last year.

O forgot he was still Coaching after 2019 and fricked over the program.

He won’t acknowledge that. He’s anti Kelly and has been from day 1. The agenda is clear.

bullshite.

Off the top of my head we lost 37-7 to Mississippi state in 2017 and got crushed by auburn 48-11 in 2020.

ETA Oh nevermind I see you somehow got this to “home losses” like that makes it any different

Miles can thank Brandon Harris for your moral victory, because he damn sure got his arse kicked all over Tiger Stadium for 3 quarters and 3/4 of the 4th by State in 2014. Let’s not forget that.

Les and O both took some arse whippings on the road.

What is the point of this bullshite?

O was handed a Mercedes and traded it in for a 1991 Corolla (baby blue)

Those were both on the road. He’s making a very specific point. That being said we lost to Troy at home which is the same thing as losing by 20 to a conference foe. So his point is dumb

On the road. My post was about getting bounced out of our own stadium.

And you don’t think O would have gotten transfers? We needed a kicker and a quarterback after 2017, and I’d say he got a pretty good one of each from the portal.

This has much to do with the style of football we were playing during this entire time period from saban through miles. It worked very well for us. Centered around running the ball and playing damn good defense so that we could control the clock. We would slow the games down. Resulted in less touches of the ball. Less scoring. We would not have changed had bama not pumped up their style of ball.

O would be 2-4 if he was still HC and I'm willing to bet good money

We got blown off the field to start the game. Not close to ready to play.

Yeah, Miles and Orgeron always had a stout defense that could keep it close. We don’t have that this year. The front seven are representative, and so are the safeties, but the corners are not what we’re used to seeing. And without the great cover corners we are limited on defense.

Keep trying numb nuts.

O was shut out in Tiger Stadium twice. The last time that happened before O was in 2002. He also lost both of those games by larger margins than Kelly did. Let's see at the end of the season how Tennessee does.

Now while you're at it, do some comparisons to Saban at LSU in terms of bad losses in Tiger stadium.

The point is, since 2003, there’s been a reasonable expectation that if you buy tickets to an LSU home game you’re not going to see LSU get blown out.

With a full crowd (so exclude 2020), that expectation was violated ONCE - Bama 2018.

Kelly has already matched that number just his 4th home game.
