This season it appears we are below even Vandy. 

But you would love to have a South Carolina on your schedule.

Ah, completely agree. Thought you were gonna have us castrate a cow or something.

I'm just not in the mood for a party

That would be a good trick but probably something you would try to do.

Welcome to bitter reality. We've saved your seat.

whatever works. Better than some people's ideas...

What's the over/under we lay an egg in Memphis now?

I've got cows. I'll give you $10k and free meat if you can castrate one of them.

Thanks. It was fun while it lasted though.

What happened to "feed the studs?"

After the 2 minute timeout, Ark runs a WR screen to a midget.

There are no words.

The play worked...until the player who had had a good game to that point didn't secure the ball. 

My criticism of Bobby for this game was running straight ahead (no zone read) on first down so much in the second half. Starting 2nd and 9-10 killed a couple of drives. 

I don't fault Sam so much for this one score loss.  The only really questionable decision was trying the FG on the first possession.   He clearly didn't see what was coming with the defense.   Had he made the same call on 4th and 2 at any point after the first drive, I'd have my pitchfork out with the rest of you. 

We did pretty well to have a chance at the end given how poorly the defense played along with the fact that the officials were worth about 14 points in OM's favor.

0% chance.  We are going to beat them by 3 touchdowns at least.

Nutt pulled a lot of close games out.  When he lost, it was usually out of nowhere and we failed to show up from the start.  Bert, as bad as he was, won quite a few close and exciting games.  TCU and 4th and 25 come to mind.  Sam...Sam just doesn't win close games.  We always lose them.

I thought the TN game last year was pretty close.

Anyways, loss on the road in the SEC against a ranked team. We looked for real on offense. We can still have a decent season, I hope. Or not. Sucks this was a gettable win though.

true, but we only punted once and had zero turnovers until the end.

2nd and four under two minutes you run the ball. even without the fumble that play was short of the first, why take the chance?

[Ray Zorback]

Maybe it's a bull identifying as a cow.

Surely to God this will end even the most remote speculation that TWill will ever be our head coach.  At this point I'd consider demoting him and letting Scott fucking Fountain call the defenses.

[Barton Fink]

Play calling was the absolute least of our issues.

We could have just as easily fumbled on a running play.  And given our history I have no doubt we would have. 

[Barton Fink]

I was thinking more Jackie Sherrill.

Yeah this one isn't really on him. But I still hate that first decision. ESPECIALLY when Kiffin is on the other sideline, you have to let him know you're gonna go balls to the wall right alongside him.

but with a pass, you take the chance of a pick, sack, or incomplete which stops the clock.

we both can be right.
