Why was the headline an issue?
Finding a way
What's wrong with that?

The issue is the giant picture of Treadwell breaking his foot that was printed underneath it.

Yeah, the finding a way to win, with the photo of the injury rather than the fumble recovery, td score, clock expiring etc... Was the poor choice.

Not a great choice, but it didn't seem malicious. Nothing for people to be up in arms about. They didn't caption it "Lucky Break" or something directly related to the injury.

I agree. This is blown out of proportion when ESPN <--- (not a local newspaper) keeps showing video of it. Why does a picture in a small ... Wait for it..., NEEWWWWSPAPER! Have so many rantards upset when you see it everywhere already?
It's a means of belittling whatever they can. I've said multiple times to family and friends that I'd rather him had made the TD and with 1:30 and multiple TOs let the chips fall where they lay. But holy jeebuzzz are some of you opposing fans complete trolls. I get it, it does make this place interesting to a certain extent but when you PRETEND to be outraged over something you aren't really outraged about.... Gheeeeey

Is this really that huge of a deal? Arent there other things more important to be worried about? Where are the threads on how Treadwell's surgery went?

Funny...I thought that the prevailing Auburn narrative was that Bama alums were incapable of rising to such supervisory positions.

You're coach could have shown some class and said " I hope the Ole Miss kid is alright, I hate to see someone get an injury like that. " Instead he said " I knew he fumbled" Never once showing concern about the opponent. Classless act.
