He could sign an MOU but that’s not worth the paper it’s printed on

I keep seeing people saying that but it’s not entirely correct. Depending on the terms and language, obligations undertaken under an MOU absolutely can be enforceable.

At present Kiffin is under contract for the next four years. If he signs anything indicating an intent to coach elsewhere within that period, it would be an “anticipatory breach” allowing the other party to treat the contract as terminated.

I can find a bad loss on almost everyone’s schedule that’s a 2 loss team.

Well, except for almost every 2 loss team. Show your work: what are the bad losses for OK, ND, Miami, Utah, Vandy, and Mich? Even 3-loss USC doesn’t have a bad one. There’s not a single team in the top 25 having a loss as bad as yours.

Bama is the only team ahead of you that has a bad loss, and Bama has a pretty damn good string of wins: UGA, TN, Vandy, Mizzou, and LSU. Oh, and unlike you, only two losses.

You Texas fans whining about a 3-loss team not getting in reminds me of me last year.

The only chance of limiting the Big10 is for a marginal Washington team to beat Oregon. But the voters this year are in love with the Ducks and would keep them in over better 10-2 teams.

LSU’s RIDIN’ BOYS

Slipping a comma in there would make all the difference. Let’s eat, Grandma.

I’m jealous of some of the stories my dad has told me about going to double headers in Jackson

---

I’ve seen an awful lot of games in that stadium. First one I specifically remember was the Archie Who game against Tennessee. Early in that season the national attention on Archie really started taking off due to the insane numbers he put up against Bama, the first nationally televised college football game in history. We lost that game 33-32, and then lost another road game before going on a run.

Tennessee came to Jackson late in the season as I recall, undefeated and appearing to be invincible. They had an All American linebacker named Kiner who dissed Archie repeatedly during the season.

I got into that game for free because our Boy Scout troop was tapped to be ushers in the stadium. Mostly we just hung around the portals and occasionally helped an old person navigate the steps to their seats.

The atmosphere was electric. The smack talk during the previous week had gotten everyone riled up and fans were ready to fight. I actually saw one fight before the game started.

That was back when a sea of confederate flags waved in the home stands. A month after that game, my school and most others in Mississippi closed for two weeks so that court-ordered desegregation could be implemented mid-year. The clock had run out on all deliberate speed.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen another Ole Miss game where every possible thing could go in our favor. You could feel from the jump that we would win. One of our field goal attempts even hit the crossbar and bounced OVER it. Final score was 38-0.

The next week some band came out with a song about Archie. I played that 45 on our hi fi about a thousand times.

I won’t ever be able to watch an Ole Miss - Tennessee game without thinking of that day.

Wins by projected playoff-bound teams over other playoff teams:

7 Oregon - 0
8 Oklahoma- 1

Total SEC: 6
Total B1G: 1
Total ACC: 1

Aggies lose to Texas they aren’t going to the SEC championship…

Correct. Someone seems to think that non-conference games figure into the CCG equation. That’s wrong.

People with integrity can always figure out the right way to do things even if it’s harder.

Better hope the Big12 doesn’t even get two, or the SEC is effectively limited to four.

B1G 3
ACC 1
ND 1
G5 1

That’s six. If Big12 sneaks in a second team (entirely possible if TTech drops the conf title game) then only four spots are left. Of course, we could hope that a 10-2 SEC team edges out Oregon or ND, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

If Alabama and Oklahoma win out and avoid the SECCG

Unless I’ve missed something, Bama winning out will ensure that it’s in the SECCG (HTH tiebreaker over UGA and SOS over OM).
