Of course. Hopefully Sark will learn from this season, with the portal, always have to work it and then some.

He will certainly be under the “hot seat” moniker with a year older Arch, Buckeyes at home and in his 6th year at the helm. Should be a year he breaks through, I’d take F4 as the floor

Great team win. On to the Aggies.

Marjorie (no CR), that you?

Im not so sure about that. Old Big12 with Nebraska, sure, especially after breaking their long home winning streak 2x, going 9-1 against them and beating them in St Louis, 1 second game etc...then of course the two Texas schools Baylor, Tech , we were their Super Bowl. When we announced leaving, the vitriol from the league office, the officiatiing. KSU always played up for us. In the SEC, I feel they are way more deferential. There is a certain level of respect from my interactions working in several SEC states on a weekly basis and interacting with them. We came into a league with a pre-set enemies (Bama vs Tenn, Auburn and LSU...UGA - FL, Egg Bowl etc..) that IMO we are not viewed with as much annumus like it was in the B12. They are glad we are here b/c it elevates the conference to whole new level. Gun to head, I bet the average SEC fan would have preferred to keep the SEC as it was, but they are not "mad" at us coming in like it was when the Big8 and SWC formed. We didnt break up rivalries in the SEC in the same way. In some ways, the SEC teams are glad they aren't playing some of the teams on a regular basis, its tough enough already is the sentiment i get.

Wont be easy, no doubt. @ IU, OU or GaTech. Those are winnable. @Tamu or UGA again, sure those would be brutal. Id be up for it though, we just need to get in first. We haven't played to our potential all season. Playoffs is a whole new ballgame. A road team is bound to breakthrough, why not us.
-
Texas with another shot at redemption, I would take that in a minute...only one of two to make 3 straight playoffs would be awesome. Texas would be a tough out IF we could get in. You take your chances in playoffs vs a bowl all day long.
-
IF and its a big if we go 2-0 to close out (with convincing wins would help)@ 9-3 may get us in. Im not saying the likelihood is great b/c of our body of work up to this point, but a Bama loss to Auburn would give them the same # of losses and 2 worse losses than ours. Its a small window, but its still open. In no particular order this could happen: TAMU, UGA,tOSU, IU, OU, Notre Dame, Tech, ACC, Group of Five, Ole Miss, Texas, Oregon (Byu loses to Cincy would be 10-2 and Bama loses to Auburn would be 9-3) . We would jump Utah imo. A Mizzou win at Norman would help too.

Thanks i just watched it. A lot of smoke for sure. Would Lincoln Riley be in play if that post is true? Sounds like Franklin is out of the market and Lane will be forced to make a decision prior to Egg Bowl
-
Fair enough. I didnt Howard's post. Ill look for it. I do agree his overall leadership as per the items mentioned is leaving a lot to be desired.

Have you looked at q3? UGA 3 and out....next drive UGA Intercepted by Hill and then we get to their 3rd possession and the fateful 4th and 5. We shut them down coming out of half and were down 4 getting the ball back. Wheels came off in q4. Because we dropped the ball 4-5 times when Arch put it on the money. That is not on Sark. Moore , the TE, Wingo needs to make the play on the deep ball and needs to not trip over grass. Sark has dialed it up all year and he doesnt deserve to be fired which is what a poster upthread eluded to.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?

Coaches don't care about that. UF is in worse shape administratively. Kiffin doesn't care about that, $12-$15M per year with that recruiting ground and base, he'd kill it there imo. -
Understood, but the ones that matter (ie the committee) thought enough of our body of work to put us there despite that. We're in that game save the offsides and we will never know what could have been, point is we got blown out in the 4th and at least had a chance before the offsides. You dont fire Sark over it, that's fools game. Let the man reorganize and retool.

The fuck are you talking about coach search. At 6:59 Saturday night we're top 10 in the nation with a chance to be top 5, what else do you want at this point in the season. We got beat by a better team going away. Im not happy about it but stringing Sark up after back to back F4, the fuck outta here with that shit. The portal and Texas $ this thing turns on a dime one year to the next. Guy thought we had it, he missed it with the OL and he isnt one dropping passes literally thrown perfectly. Sark isnt going anywhere unless he chooses. Now IF he were to leave for the NFL, we'll know in 3 -4 weeks and we name our coach, Kiffin, Riley , Franklin, are at least lateral and some would say upgrades in certain areas. Check yourself, its not as bad as it seems.

LSU would certainly be a better job imo. That states elite in-state talent recruits it self. Kiffin is not known for his Defense but he could certainly get enough Defensive talent to attract a great DC. I would take LSU over UF and OleMiss any day
