Music at Bryant-Denny

Posted by LSUisGATORBAIT on 12/1/14 at 4:25 pm
Earlier this year, I went to the Florida game there. I do not recall the incessant pumped-in music when Bama was on defense. ("That's because the Gators were barely on offense," you're correctly thinking). Well, I attended my first Iron Bowl with the fiancee and future in-laws. When did Bryant-Denny become an NBA game experience instead of a college football game with your 400 member band leading cheers? Seemingly between every play when Bama was on defense there would be some kinda trendy rap music, the 'Black Betty' electric guitar intro, and/or Scott Cochran challenging the fans with "I caaannnn't heeear yoouuuu."

Just wondering what Bama fans (and visiting fans who have recently been) think about the stadium experience. Hope this doesn't become the new norm in college football, but I'm sure recruits love it.
I think if he's such an offensive genius, then he could be considered as offensive coordinator.

Mark's Prime steakhouse downtown for a good dinner on Friday. Decent bar scene downtown as well.

Plenty of bars on University after the game to watch MSU-Bama et al.
I echo the sentiments of others. Obviously happy with the win, but Muschamp's body of work is underwhelming.

Evaluate at the end of the season. I think Foley fires him if they can hire a proven winner and better CEO. See: Chicago Cubs fire Rick Renteria, hire Joe Maddon 30 seconds later.
Makes you proud of the obvious chemistry and brotherly love in the locker room. Go Gators!
(a) and (c) only

(a) Present-approximately 5 PM Saturday geared up for a miracle.

(c) 7 PM Saturday after a double digit loss remain bourbon-numb and convince myself I'm detached until the Muschamp era is officially closed.
Yeah it would have to be like the Alabama game with turnovers/DST touchdown minus the bombs and blown coverages to the likes of Henry and Cooper. Florida may hang around for the 1st half but the defense will wilt in the 2nd half when our incompetent offense can manage very little time of possession.

Dawgs run away with it (no pun intended) in the last 20 minutes or so for a 34-10 final.
I think it's pretty clear that we need someone with head coaching experience. I have a hard time believing Foley would go the coordinator route with the failed Zook and Muschamp experiments under his belt. So, that means no Chad Morris and no other cute, trendy darkhorse candidates that message board gurus want to nominate.

REALISTIC candidates:

Rich Rodriguez

He had 3 consecutive lights out years at WVU. His only losing season in Morgantown was his first year 3-8 (1-6 Big East). The next year he produced a Big East record turnaround and went 9-4 (6-1 Big East, the lone conf defeat to #1 Miami).

Gary Patterson

Yes, he's been at TCU for 15+ years. However, he admittedly considers overtures from other schools.

Larry Fedora

Familiar with the Gators, has never had a losing record as a head coach at Southern Miss or UNC, great recruiter, and offensive mind. Maybe a "fall back" candidate if bigger names decline.

The one that just happened on that Marshall punt. Jeezus
Never too early to look ahead to next football season...

The Gators' 2011 schedule includes a home date with Bama, road games at LSU and Auburn. The past 5 national champs (4 teams) will all do battle this upcoming season. Welcome to the club, Auburn
yes suh.

awaiting arky fans' excuses.
Was just passing along relevant info, not making brash predictions or citing non-existent "sources."

I think it'd be a helluva interesting hire though
My wish list

1. Gary Patterson
2. Bob Stoops
3. " Petrino
I'd rather have Patterson than Peterson.

1. Patterson
2. Pipedream-- NFL guy like Gruden or Cowher
3. Peterson
4. Stoops
5. Harbaugh


6. Mullen
I think Mullen would be, honestly. I'd rather have Charlie Strong and his offensive coordinator Mike Sanford who was Meyer's OC at Utah.
Spurrier. He built Florida to what it is now.

Frankly, Spurrier did more without a legendary college football player. Sure, Wuerffel won the Heisman in 1996 but so has Jason White and Eric Crouch. Meyer had Tebow 4 of 6 years. Sorta like Chiz has Cam this year.
We wouldn't want him. If I were a Bama fan I wouldn't be threatened by Chizik.
I don't understand the Mullen hype. His tie to Florida was Meyer. I hope Jeremy Foley takes his time.

I believe the list of candidates would include Mullen, Gruden, and Charlie Strong.
Clay Travis just tweeted "even Cecil Newton thinks FIFA is corrupt."
Wild wing cafes are good for viewing and for the food.

Damons in Columbia, SC (think its a chain) and ESPN Zone in Times Square stick out to me.

Florida is gonna those FCS chumps.
I just laid cheese on Bama -44. RTR!!!
Wynn sportsbook in Vegas has Bama -45. I'd bet them if they were -55. WTF online sportsbooks. Open the line up for betting
For atmosphere-- Oxford

For "I want to go to a good football game"-- Bama

Apologies, UGA and Mark. 2. I stand corrected. I could see him better suited for a program that doesn't have national championship expectations/dreams. The fan base is happy to contend for a division title but not up in arms by 3-4 losses. For example, I think Tuberville is going to have a nice tenure at Texas Tech out of the limelight behind OK and TX.
That's just coach talk. You expected him to say, "oh yeah his arse is gonna be fired"? He said they'd "evaluate" after the season. If Dumbazio isn't fired by Meyer I can't imagine Jeremy Foley staying mum. This is definitely a wait-and-see scenario.
As a Gator fan, I'd like him to stay based on the success we've had against him.

In a more objective view, I don't think that he is the one to take UGA to that next level. I know Georgia has been a top 3-4 winningest program over the past 10 years in the SEC but that has delivered 1 conference championship. That's simply not good enough IMO. He's a good coach, not a great coach.
