So... anyone out there an SEC fan?! All I ever see on here is Big 10 stuff. I'm all about my SEC football (roll tide!) and I like the ACC a lot too. Anyone else? :confused: I got a really special treat this weekend and got to go to the UF/FSU game in Gainesville with one of my good friends :) She goes to FSU and had an extra ticket. So much fun! And I'm a Nole Sympathizer and a Gator Hater so it was extra fun. |

I was disappointed that Ohio State lost against Michigan, but it was still a very good and close game.

Despite the fact that Kentucky football didn't have much of a pulse this year, it's happy times here in Lexington presently because Kentucky beat Tennessee this weekend for the first time since 1984!! :D GO CATS!! |

I think with Hoke and Urban, we could see a rivalry like in the Bo/Woody years, which would be huge fun :) |
Obviously from my name, you can tell I am a Gator fan. LSU and Bama in the National Championship game!! Anything else would be a disappointment for a good game. Sorry UGA, I do not see the upset. In case you did not notice the only decent team in the east was USC and you lost to them. Heck, you only beat us by 6 and we were just plain awful this year.
As far as Urban: I cannot speak for the rest of the Gator Nation but I am really disappointed and feel betrayed. When he resigned he said that it was because he just could not find the balance between super intense coach and family man. We loved him at UF or at least did. When he came out and said 'the last year has taught him how to balance family and coaching' I had to laugh out loud. How in the world could 8 months as an ESPN commentator teach him how to balance? Maybe he is counting the coaching he did for his son's high school team. When Spurrier left, in true Spurrier style, he told it like it was; he wanted to move on to another challenge. We still love Spurrier, even though he is coaching in our division of the SEC. We look at Urban the way the LSU folks look at Saban - a man whose word is not to be trusted. Maybe Urban could not take the intensity of the SEC and felt he needed to go to the Big 10 where things are not as intense :) |
He could not deal with LAT (Life After Tebow).
|
Hopefully in a few years after they rebuild the team it will turn out as good for you as it has for LSU. For a while there was a lot of bitterness toward Saban and dislike for Miles. Now we can look back and see how lucky we are. I don't think to many people would trade Les for Nick now!!!

1) If I was a Gator (I'm not), I'd be annoyed, but college coaches being disingenous is hardly surprising unfortunately.
2) While we are discussing Florida, let me say a BIG thank you to to them on behalf on my beloved Denver Broncos for Tim Tebow. I didn't think God cared about football - apparently I was entirely mistaken because I just can't think of any other way to account for why he keeps winning games. It defies all football logic. Of course, the next game could change everything. ;) 3) Great teams playing each other do not necessarily make for great football games. Case in point: Bama and LSU. That would NOT be a good game unless something radically changes with one of them in a month. It wasn't a good game last time. It set new standards for boring. 5 field goals in 4 quarters and an overtime isn't a good game. I'd rather be forced to watch Dune five times in a row. I'd rather watch 6 straight hours of golf or ice curling. I'd rather call the last game good, give LSU the BCS trophy and be done with it. 4) On the topic of new coaches: If there are any out there that need a job, the Pac-12 suddenly has two openings, and I'm thinking a third may open up by the end of the week (the first two offer better weather). Conversely, if any Big East teams are in need of coaches - we've now got a couple available. |

So as of today the Pac-12 has fired 4 coaches this season (3 in the last 2 days). Just curious if any football trivia buffs out there know the record number of coaches in a conference to lose their jobs in one season cause I'm thinking we're pushing it.
|
Official news out of Washington State, Mike Leach has been hired as the new head coach! I'm not sure how I feel about this considering his history, but I think it will be good for the school. Time will tell.
