  1. I think the team people are ignoring that could completely fall out of the top 12 is Ole Miss. They still have to play Florida and MSU. This Ole Miss team is still a team that only beat Arky by 6 and Kentucky by 7 and had to comeback from behind to beat fricken Washington State at HOME. A lot of credit is be given to them for beating OU on the road, a now dog crap LSU and and seven point loss to UGA. It wouldn’t shock me if they get upset by Florida or MSU. If you hear the talking heads, you’d think they are stomping everyone.
  2. Yea it takes a way one of their three guaranteed wins and now that have to play a power four in non conference, they will continue to schedule more middle to lower tier Power fours like they have Arizona State and Louisville on their schedule. Purdue or Northwestern will probably show up down the road for them too. But they checked the box!
  3. One of them needs to get stomped which will help keep them out of the Top 12. A close loss for BYU might keep them in the Top 12.
  4. This show is nothing but a pump up the Irish pep rally.
  5. The one point win over ND where ND lost it more than A&M won it passes the eye test Booger and Joey are certifiable idiots.
  6. Booger is an idiot.
  7. Norte Dame can suck it.
  8. I guess because it was so bad in the RIG 12, even some of the shady stuff in the SEC looked minor league. It’s not until at least from my perspective I started watching more of the league games when we joined I didn’t realize they were just a slight step or two below the Rig 12. And not big steps…..
  9. I expect Arkansas to offer. Being that Traylor spent a lot of his early years in East Texas not too far from Arkansas and he knows the small schools who have those diamond in the rough type recruits.
  10. Which was surprising because that was before we went SEC. Of course the RIg 12 refs screwed us on our own turf vs Bama the year before. We had hopes the officiating would be a giant upgrade vs the Rig12. So far it’s been underwhelming for the most part save they do throw flags against OU when we play them. But UGA is the SEC’s OU and we will see this play out in some fashion next week.
  11. Maybe they will hire Jackie Sherril as a consultant and set up an account with Fed Ex?
  12. ND will always be overrated. Until they are required to play an eight or nine game conference schedule and the rigors that goes along with it, they will go 9-3, 10-2 for the foreseeable future. This five game per year agreement they have with the ACC is non sense. Plus they are the sports media darlings. Been that way for generations because many of them have connections to Norte Dame.
  13. Yes he was. Pick your battles and Saturday was prime for picking. After a few of those missed holding calls, Sark should've been working them and then went ape chit on them with the DPI in the end zone. If he gets a flag for unsportsmanlike conduct, so be it. He had everything supporting his outrage including the replay on stadium video board, the TV commentators which pointed it out, and most the X/Twitter verse. And then everything called against us from there is looked through that lense.
  14. Sark can work the Refs and not become Kirby like. The best coaches I've seen do this wait for the right opportunity and then lock on to them for the rest of the game. And then they might not do it for a game or two. Kirby likes to whine about everything from minute 1 to minute 60.
  15. We need to become Vandy and Diego fans for the next three weeks.... Yuck
  16. How much does UGA pay this dude to be Kirby's child safety harness?
  17. Why would they want to mention it? Some of those boneheads (like the SEC Network wrap up show) have Vandy still making the playoffs in their brackets. That call along with the other non sense that went on late in game if they covered it correctly would blow up the narrative the game was close.
  18. I agree . In the Rig 12 we knew if a crew led by Mar, Alvarez, and muscle head (Scott is his first name I think?) we were going to be on the short end of something. Plus the fact they want to review everything and it takes the replay booth forever to review which in turn makes a game that starts at lunch time end at dinner time , I don’t miss the Rig 12 for this too.
  19. Petrino is correct. If the SEC or any conference is so confident in their officiating, they shouldn’t be afraid to take the incoming when questions like disparity in number of calls is raised. Or just outright missed calls or wrong calls are documented on video and left open for questions. These stupid fines the conference holds over the coaches and I assume the AD’s heads are more detrimental to the integrity of the game than the status quo.
  20. It’s because of the fine that would come after it. I’d love to see a coach go ape shit on the Refs and make it the whole focal point of the post game and then walk out. I think the fan/booster/alumni base at a school like Texas would pick up the tab on the fine just to put the clowns at the SEC office on notice and make it the buzz in the media and podcast across the conference for a week. Which in turn would force the conference to address it along with some of the other non sense such as certain Ref crews kissing Kirby Smart’s ass. The whole use of replay needs an overhaul if officiating crews want to retain what credibility they have left in this era where any series of “mistakes” or out right incompetence starts to be assigned to fixing games thanks to then gambling environment sports find themselves in. The NCAA needs to adopt a challenge system like the NFL and this should apply to penalties that are as obvious like that hold and mugging we took on that TD drop in the end zone in the 4th qtr. The NCAA also needs to adopt the ACC model of showing the discussion in the booth so we are not relaying on the TV commenters and the so called “Officiating Experts” they turn to for their take on a call which by the way I see they turn out to be wrong a lot these days too. So much for being experts.
  21. Maybe not that bad? Recall the 2022 Okie State game we got called for 100 yards in penalties while Okie State had ZERO. That was a Kevin Mar crew But it was pretty obvious something shady occurred in this Vandy game.
  22. Please let that be a catch. I want to see Kirby go ape shit
