pretty good bet to give him one more year at alabama. he should've had his agent working on penn state and michigan. Pride goeth before the fall.
it's set in for everyone. you can't stockpile all the talent anymore. no more dynasties. you will be able to compete every now and again.

that was a great football game!

Congrats, Ole Miss. I don't know what happened to Kirbo's offensive coaching staff. they were dominating in the first half with their running game and then they made halftime adjustments to change their game plan.

Both teams made a lot of great plays. just a great game.
but that was a terribly embarrassing loss! I don't remember when I saw an alabama team that demoralized and quitting.

i couldn't really enjoy the fact that you were losing because I felt so bad for you. It was really a butt-thumping!

i have nothing against alabama except i'm tired of them winning so much. it was great to see miami beat Ohio State for the same reason.

not gonna ruin my day to see alabama win, but i'd rather indiana advance.

for the record, i expect alabama to win.
when they abandoned the run he started getting more comfortable and confident throwing. showed he's not afraid to run. was inconsistent in badly missing some throws. but he could be a decent, good qb imo.
man, that's not a bad thing at all taken in context. he was emotional. Geez!
we got dominated on both lines of scrimmage. most disappointing aspect of the game to me. not a surprise by the OL, but looked like we were even worse than before. Defense, heck, we were missing to many starters. these guys hadn't played together.

we had houston's 4th td stopped except our rusher didn't lift his hands up to keep the qb from throwing.

and i want to give the O staff credit for finally realizing we couldn't run the ball and adjusting. I think Van Buren got a little excited and kept going for the long ball instead of just completing passes. Understandable. he looked decent enough.

i think we'll win 9 games next year, but the very least I know is that lsu football will be more fun to watch.
you have to fear that lagway has been mentally destroyed, and that is hard to come back from. Plus, although he has good athletic skills, he's not a runner, which is imperative in today's college football scene.
i said it, too. it was 3rd down and critical that they hold onto the ball. Still, i gave him credit for the good throw.

i really think the downfall started with the stupid late hit resulting in a 15 yard penalty and Alabama continues for their first score.

i just don't understand

yes, alabama made some great pass plays, and the refs totally fricked Ok in the second half, but ok coaching sucked. alabama figured out they had to rush more than 4, but Ok quit rushing more than 4 late int he 2d quarter and never figured out they need to rush 5.

the whole game changed when mateer didn't rush for the first down late in the 1st quarter on 3rd down. sure, he delivered the pass but it was dropped, that 's why you take the sure thing. after that, it was all over.
he should've run for the first down. granted, he threw an accurate pass but it was dropped. it was 3rd down and they were on their way to a score. no time to get greedy. no telling how many yards he could've run for. then the punter screws the pooch and then mateer makes another mental error.

he is in much better shape mentally but can he come back? OK's defense will have to go all out, because they have made alabama believe the game is theirs. first and second possessions for alabama are going to be critical in this game for the second half.

I understand why everyone is picking alabama. they expect alabama to make adjustments and not turn the football over so much. While I expect Oklahoma to be just as tough on defense with pressures on Simpson, that is no guarantee of getting the turnovers.

The difference in the game has to be both qb's. Siimpson has to not make the big mistakes under pressure. Mateer has to play better than he did last game, although you have to give Oklahoma credit for their efficiency. They got the turnovers AND scored td's, not field goals.

it's a pick 'em contest to me.
really strong indictment against kelly. when we got kelly i thought he always had tough olines and Rb's and could run the football.
total b.s. post. all it did was put down the entire SEC fan base. there are lots of positives as well.
it's foolish to go for pure mercenaries. I don't think there is any problem with kids wanting to make some money, but imo you better make sure they love to play football and it's not ONLY the money.
