Really unfathomable that they went into Athens and won. They looked as bad as any team in the conference up to that point including Arky and Vandy.

I am sorry I cant get over the SEC handing Kentucky a win over the Tigers.

If that game is call even remotely correctly we win going away


Yes there were bad calls that went against us, but we can absolutely look in the mirror and point at ourselves - both can be true and both are - we should have won despite the calls that went against us. We shot our own foot - tackle the guy on the punt return you had two hands on him - score touchdowns instead of field goals when we get inside the 10, get one more first down to run the clock out, etc.
I mean, their offense has struggled to score all year. He's the QB. I'm not sure exactly how bad their O-line is but I have seen enough of Arch last year and this to say that if his name was Smith, I doubt he'd be starting QB at Texas right now.

Great teams??????? :confused:

If Baker can just stop one of their drives, we're sitting in the top 5 and feeling pretty good outside of injuries.

Or if we can score touchdowns in both games in our trips inside the 10 or just get one more first down to run the clock out against KY.

Ole Miss is a championship team Kentucky not so much


I'm not sure I'm ready to call Ole Miss a "championship team" but they are a team that is at least good enough to make a run at a playoff birth - I still think there's a couple of more losses on their schedule.

Kentucky - man they just keep winning games they probably should not have, which deserves some credit I guess but it's why Vegas still does not seem to buy them.

Take last night - they had 230 total yards and were pushed around pretty good most of the night but Mateer being Mateer and a poorly executed fake FG by OU allowed the Cats to pull another one out of their arse!!

Yes, I run every day and sweat profusely doing so - so I have to, no choice.
I'm in the minority - I like Jimmy. I'm not at all interested in gambling so the segments with the old crusty Vegas guys I can do without but when he and Hanny talk sports I enjoy it.

O got fired 2 years after winning a title Miles would've been fired too if the program trended downward


I tend to agree, but Les never went 6-6 even once, much less twice. But the repeated clock management fiasco's and his stubborn refusal to evolve offensively probably still do him in.
This is a different era and a different time. You can turn things around a good bit more quickly. Now it's not as easy as pushing a button but it's not as hard as it used to be.

I think folks are/were excited about the Lane hire and believe it is a great hire and for many it's still a honeymoon phase and I sense many are going to give him a good bit of the benefit of the doubt at least this year.

I will say losing to Kentucky was very disappointing and while some may want to absolve LK of any blame for it you can't, he's the head coach.

Does that mean we should fire him or that he can't win a national title here in a couple of years? No - time reveals all truths - we're just going to have to wait to answer the bigger picture questions, but we can still be pissed in the here and now, that's alright.
I don't hate Angel, but I would not have known she was in the WNBA finals were it not posted here.
Mascona isn't....as I've now heard 100 times counting yesterday.

Dodgers fans - your deferred payments are coming due and your owner is a crook


They smugly sat back and bragged about how smart and progressive their ownership was and how many light years ahead their front office was than any in baseball.

Turns out their owner was a crook and a charlatan who fell arse backward into a tv contract based largely on fortunate timing and an even more fortunate and head scratching court ruling that gave the Dodgers a huge advantage over all other teams.

Couple that with all the deferred contracts that some lauded them for getting out in front of that will really tighten the noose around the owner's neck and watching the house of cards tumble as their core ages out.

After having to hear them brag on all that it will be fun to watch it all collapse on top of them.
Where's my buddy WCA? It's the beginning of the end and I'm loving it. Their core is aging, Tucker was/is a bust, the Ponzie scheme is about to implode, and their bottomless pit of money is about to be confiscated.
Everyone fans in their own way. Some have given up, some still will say we can win out, some think playoffs are probably off the table but are still invested.

I expected 9-3 when the season started mainly because our QB missed all of spring and was coming off and injury.

I still think 9-3 is a possibility and not an unrealistic one. I was not expecting to lose to Kentucky and at the end year I think I'll still feel that way but we have enough talent to beat someone that maybe most thought we should not like Texas or Bama.

Didn't he host the History of White People in America?

Yeah, Tac was something - worked for one of the big basketball boosters one summer or should say was employed by - dude fired him. Told me that's the only player he ever fired. Said he told Brady flat out he needed to kick him off the team.

Baseball guys are like a group of girls with their drama


Having had a family member married to a former LSU baseball player, I can attest.

Those fall scrimmages where they are competing for starting spots and roster spots, the drama in the stands with the girlfriends and parents that absolutely includes the players is like an episode of the Housewives of whatever city you choose.

He comes across that way on air, in person and any and every other way possible.

Ha! He was my Dad's favorite - of course whoever the best white player was - was always his favorite.

Jordy came to LSU at a time when Dale was finally starting to get some real talent in the program. Ironically his best year was his freshman year, his playing time and production went down each year he was here because better players started coming into the program.
