We have the best QB coming back

The hell you do! Will Rogers, Joe Milton, Devon Leary, Jayden Daniels, Spencer Rattler will all be drafted before Jefferson. Jefferson would be #6 on this list as it stands right now. Hell Jefferson would be the 3rd best QB on UT roster if he played for UT. Milton and Nico both would start over him.

This is why I had a spring wedding. Weather was beautiful, ceremony was lovely, venue was easier to book than the fall, and no one was pissed for missing a football game.

Who cares, its just a football game. Your buddy's wedding is much more important.

But lucky for you, its 2023, and there are ways to watch the game. Unless its a Catholic wedding, the ceremony should take up like 10 minutes of game time, and hopefully your buddy will have the game on somewhere at the reception. You can pull the game up on your phone if you need to.

So by this logic Anthony Richardson was the second best QB in the SEC last year.

I'm not sure what you're crying about. It's not like Arkansas was going to win this game. We already know the outcome. Your buddy also knows that you know the outcome.

Im a die hard Aubie and got married on Iron Bowl Saturday. Here is the story.

My wife had one place and one place only in mind for where she wanted to have the wedding. She loved the place long before she met me and I had family ties to it as my Great Grandfather was born on the place when it was a working cattle farm.

So she and her mother are going to meet the owner and set a date for a fall wedding. I tell her I don't care as long as it isn't the Saturday of the IB.

She calls me later and says that the property has been sold and the new owners are not going to do events anymore and there was only one open date left and after Nov the new owner takes over. Of course it is IB Saturday.

We set up a couple TVs in the lobby and honestly after the minimal bitching it wasnt bad. People partied at an open bar and they would walk out to check the score and watch a few minutes but other than that the wedding was a blast and AU got shredded anyway so it was a great time.

The kicker when I agreed was that from this moment on in perpetuity any year our anniversary falls on same weekend as IB we will postpone celebrations until the following weekend. She has held her end of the bargain thus far through 7 years

50% chance he gets married again. 100% this game will never be played again.

True story.
The bride was Bama alumni.
The groom was Auburn alumni.
The families considered this wedding as a betrayal just like Romeo and Juliet.
The bride and groom decided they would marry the day of the Iron Bowl with the wedding begining at kick-off.
At the reception, the bride's family brought in a TV and set it up at one end of the reception hall and the groom's family set up a TV at the other end.
In the middle stood the groom and his new wife, both in tears.

I had a friend get married in 2018 on the day of LSU-Bama. I went to the game. Looking back, I would have had more fun at the wedding.

If you were a better friend you would not let him marry a Yankee

If he were a better friend he would not allow a wedding on a football Saturday, much less a date where 2 SEC teams do battle.

Yea but is Arkansas really considered the south. I know they are in the SEC but I wouldn’t exactly say they are in the south. They are closer to Missouri/Midwest than South East.


Most of 10rc is further north than the majority of the state of Arkansas. What does that make you.?
