    Aggy took over Tiger Stadium.  Absolutely cleared it out and outnumbered LSU fans...in their own damn stadium...

     

    I got home in time for the A&M song to the background of FIRE KELLY chanting.

    I had to remove UF because it triggers me. Just all of that stupidity on display, I'm not yet ready to get to acceptance. I'm still in the anger and bargaining stages. 

    I can absolutely see them lose to Mizzou. LSU, I dunno. It's Brain Kelly coaching them, and their offense is almost as dire as ours looks. Nuss is so overrated it's astounding. The defense can roll, tho. If Moss is out for LSU, they might be cooked, regardless of Craver/Concepcion. Reed is average, and LSU'S defense is pretty good. They can get to the QB, same with Missouri. 

    Three SEC road games consecutively?  A team could go 1-2 and still be a good team.  A great team would take a dive next week to keep Brian Kelly employed.

    The only team, no matter how bad or average they are that can beat Georgia in conference is Bama. They're Georgia's kryptonite. Like us against Nebraska, or KSU against us. Some teams just have that mental part that gets to them. 

    Except in the Sugar Bowl 😉

    Ole Miss Chamblis coulda run for the 1st down twice.

    Truly don’t give a shit about the ap poll, but Notre dame being 13 with 2 losses beating nobody is hilarious. Meanwhile Texas went from #9 to unranked, then only up to 21 still sitting 7 spots behind the team we just dicked down. Got it.

    I've never seen a 1-loss USC team get this level of disrespect.  The one loss was on the road to a Rose Bowl conference rival Illinois because the Trojans scored a little too soon.  We will have our hands full.

    James Franklin had been the Nittany Lions’ head coach since 2014.

    Accomplishments:
    • 104-45 record
    • Five AP Top 10 finishes
    • Seven AP Top 20 finishes
    • Six 10-win seasons
    • 2016 Big Ten Champions
    • 2024 CFP Appearance
    • 2017 Fiesta Bowl Champions Washington 
    • 2019 Cotton Bowl Champions Memphis 
    • 2022 Rose Bowl Champions Utah
    • 2024 Fiesta Bowl Champions Boise State,

    Franklin had Penn State ranked in the AP Top 10 at some point in ten consecutive seasons dating back to 2016.

    Those bowl wins.  Franklin drew a lot of smaller programs.  Not so well when the opponent was better known.

    Indiana sucks at basketball and is pretty good in the bootball.

    It ain't 1986.

    He's a light-skin rich brother.  When "you people" say, "I have a black friend", he is exactly who you're talking about.

    It doesn't count when they have to tell you.

    I split hairs with you on Notre Dame, but you need a guy at Freeman’s level to recruit nationally.
     

    Michigan’s best players usually come from Detroit or Ohio. They have to knock heads with fOSU in both areas. Penn State pretty much has all of Pennsylvania to themselves plus easy proximity to the DMV and Jersey.

    I wonder if they want that one back? They ran the Northeast and DMV in recruiting for decades. 

    I think Penn State is the second best recruiting job in the north. 

    The story was the same as the Texas A&M to SEC story.  When PSU joined the BUG they 'opened' PA to recruiting from the conference.  That was not reciprocated by players from Ohio preferring to go far away to Happy Valley.  At least that was PSU's explanation of why they went bad a few years after joining.

    Dick Rod played at WVU. He was a teammate of a buddy of mine.

    Cignetti also went to WVU and if I remember correctly Curt was a backup QB and threw one career pass. His dad, Frank, was head coach at WVU, replaced Bowden.

    For a state that size, WV produces a lot of good coaches.

    Last season was his peak at PSU. They played the majority of the weakest teams in the playoffs. Their path to the semis was easier than anyone else's. Franklin is Ohio State's bitch, he folds in big games time after time. Ever since the Oregon game they've been in a free fall, they may not even become bowl eligible.

    And that theoretical one pass would have been the only pass caught by a Nittany wide receiver all Orange Bowl.

    Dean Martin was very underrated as an actor.  The scene in the bar where the ruffian tosses the coin in the spitoon is amazing. 

     

    I always watch the scene where he pours it back into the bottle after hearing the Spanish music.  One of these days I will actually do that.
