re: Vanderbilt players/coaches will have names of fallen soldiers on our uniforms on Saturday

Posted by GoldenFlakes on 11/8/17 at 2:48 pm to CGSC Lobotomy

Through a special partnership with Medals of Honor, Vanderbilt's Deep Water uniforms will feature names of fallen soldiers on the back with the soldiers' military branch patch on the front of the jersey. The Commodores' coaching staff will wear special Salute to Service sweatshirts with names of fallen soldiers on the front and their branch patches on the sleeve.

I think it'll be difficult for the SEC to fill all its bowl slots this year

Posted by GoldenFlakes on 10/31/17 at 10:00 am

Right now, seven teams are eligible, and Texas A&M will likely get win #6 vs. New Mexico in a couple of weeks. Ole Miss won't be bowling due to infractions even if it reaches 6 wins, and there are FIVE other teams that have just 3 wins with four games to go: Vandy, Arkansas, Missouri, Florida, Tennessee.

Vanderbilt (Western KY, Kentucky, Missouri, @ Tennessee)
Arkansas (Coastal Carolina, @LSU, Mississippi State, Missouri)
Florida (@ Missouri, @ South Carolina, UAB, Florida State)
Missouri (Florida, Tennessee, @ Vanderbilt, @ Arkansas)
Tennessee (Southern Miss, @ Missouri, LSU, Vanderbilt)

Both Shreveport and Birmingham may be scrambling...

You think CBS is going to go 1/3 of the season without showing the top-ranked, highest ratings-generating team in America even once?

What does 6 wins get you at Vandy? A raise and a contract extension.

re: Good luck to the SEC in this week's men's golf regionals

Top how many advance?

My understanding is that the Top 5 teams from each of the six regionals (after 3 rounds) advance to the national championship competition.

There, the 30 teams will compete in a stroke-play competition, after which the top 8 will advance to match play for the quarterfinals, semifinals, and championship.

re: 9 game SEC Schedule - 4 permanent opponents - best 2 teams in Atlanta

Posted by GoldenFlakes on 5/15/17 at 10:34 am to dcbl

I am in favor of a 9-game schedule, too. For example, it is absurd that 15 years will pass between Vandy's visits to Baton Rouge (2009, 2024).

I think this may eventually happen, but it won't be because of fan complaints. It will be if/when CBS and ESPN demand it during negotiations for new TV contracts: i.e., "if you want more money, give us a better supply of games every week."

Seems like a bigger issue is their ridiculous NBA contract. When that gets renewed and player salaries get hit, you could see the mother of all work stoppages.

Women's tennis yesterday and men's golf today.

Time for men's golf to take the next step on the national stage after bowing out in the quarterfinal round for the past two years.

Really pleased with the stable of coaches we have now throughout the entire athletic department.

A proposal: the SEC should drop Shreveport and ink a Vegas deal w/the Pac 12

Posted by GoldenFlakes on 4/4/17 at 9:31 am

The Las Vegas Bowl is about to take a major leap forward in stature with the Raiders' new stadium. If I were Greg Sankey, I'd get ahead of the curve here and reshuffle our bowl affiliations. An SEC-Pac12 matchup would become a high profile game very quickly.
Oh, I'd go...
