So one Top 5 season, getting beat by Ohio St and losing by double digits in the SECCG.

Some teams are 8-5 and SECw favorites, and some 8-5 teams are picked last. Despite head to head, SOS, and returning starters. But that's none of my business.

This is why Spurrier is one of my favorite coaches of all-time.......he does such a good job of getting under peoples skin and has done it for decades.

As an LSU fan, how do you look yourself in the mirror every morning knowing you are going to under-achieve that day?

The HBC is great. Great player, coach and personality. When he decides to play golf full-time, the SEC is gonna miss him. I sure will. I hope he'll do some media then.

I think he kinda likes Mizzou/Pinkel or at least puts-up with us? I believe that started with the beatin' in the 2005 Independence Bowl.

Transcript of Spurrier from 2015 Media Days.

quote:
COACH SPURRIER: Thanks, Kevin. A lot of familiar
faces out there after a lot of years coming to this event.
I figured a bunch of you guys would have retired by
now.

quote:
Got a new coach, John Hoke. John was with me in
Florida in 2001, 14 years ago. We led the SEC in total
defense and in scoring defense that year. That year
was really one of the best teams we had in the 12
years I was there.

quote:
Anyway, after that year, I
decided to go pro. I went to the NFL, and John Hoke
went to the NFL. I lasted two years, and John Hoke
lasted 13. So he's a lot smarter, better coach than I
am.

quote:
Q. There's been some situations here in the past
few weeks in college football, for example, the
Florida State University where they've been having
issues with some of the players off the field. What
do you do as a coach to make sure that your
players and the guys you recruit stay out of those
bad situations?
COACH SPURRIER: Somebody asked me earlier,
Coach, you all haven't had any problems in some time
at South Carolina. What are you doing differently? I've
always had a rule as a coach that, if you ever hit a girl,
you're finished.

quote:
Q. Steve, this is your 26th year as a college head
coach. How have you kept your sanity and your
health to last this long? And how do you evaluate
yourself at the end of every year to say, okay, I'm
going to go another year?
COACH SPURRIER: Same way you sports writers do
it, I think [ laughter ]. Yeah, I really think the program I
own helps to hang around a long time. Somebody
said, why are you still coaching? I said, well, I forgot to
get fired, and I'm not going to cheat. That's about the
way you lose your job. You get fired for losing or you
cheat, and then they get somebody else.

Here's a subtle swing at uga.

quote:
Q. A lot of programs are plugging in quarterbacks,
transfer quarterbacks. What do you think of that
concept, and why have you kind of stayed away
from that?
COACH SPURRIER: We think we've recruited some
pretty good quarterbacks, and we think they're very
capable of playing well for us. When you bring one in
from somewhere else, you're sort of telling the guys
you got, we don't think you're very good, I would
imagine.

quote:
Somebody told me the other day I'm the youngest
coach in the SEC that's won four straight Bowl games.
Did you know that? Youngest coach to have done that
right now. You all knew that, didn't you? Okay. Just a
little something.

SEC fricked, Spurrier isn't focusing as much on golf.

quote:
Q. Coach, how do you think that you've evolved in
your 25 or so years as a football coach? And also,
how's your golf game?
COACH SPURRIER: Golf game's not near what it used
to be. Haven't played quite as much this year for some
reason

quote:
Q. You always seem a little bit more excited when
you beat Georgia. Why is that?
COACH SPURRIER: I don't think -- you didn't see me
after the Miami game, Independence Bowl? I think that
was the most fired up all of us were

Never said it was great, just more than what Spurrier can say.

13-9 all time Arkansas holds the serve over the Crocks. That says it all! McFadden set a rushing record against that Crock defense #305yds

Steve said in a interview when they returned home, that DMAC ran across their practice field with the ball and still had not been tackled!
Heck he was laughing at his team.
SS is fun and I enjoy his barb's.
