What of Tim Tebow signed with the runner up for his signature, Alabama?

Mile Shula wins enough games to keep his job.
Nick Saban probably returns to Baton Rouge after les had his 8-5 year
Cam Newton never transfers away from Florida because starters get their transgressions swept under the rug.
Urban is still at Florida.**



* until December when a Saban lead LSU team would break their dick off in his puny aorta valve

-what if OSU doesn't luck up into "holy buckeye" against a woeful purdue team in 02
-what if the refs are competent and actually call correctly and Illinois beats OSU in 02
-what if michael moore and tony wilson catch the ball against SC in 07
-what if UK makes their damn field goals against UT in 07

What if our Lou Groza award winning, All-American kicker hadn't missed two chip-shot field goals against LSU in 2003?

In that same year - what if we hadn't lost to fricking MEMPHIS?

Well, I'm thinking my confusion is obvious to everyone but you.

Tubby...UG...bring UG to where FL is...Tubby fired everywhere except the stepping stone he used...OK recruiter...not that good of a game day coach...etc.

Effing over Jimmy Johnson when he was practically begging for our HC job, effectively sending him into revenge mode for the rest of his life

However, if we're getting crazy hypothetical, not recruiting Bear Bryant was probably it.

What I Peyton Manning followed his father to Ole Miss?

What if The center hadn't tripped up Eli on the last play of the game against LSU in 03?

What if we would have offered Walter Peyton, Jerry Rice, Brett Farve, Steve McNair, etc?

Petrino isn't worth a what if.

He left our program is such a cluster it's not even been funny.

He did the same thing at Louisville and those idiots welcomed him back with open arms.



Agreed.

There's really no big "what if" with Petrino -- if Harleygate never happens, he still has to deal with a paper thin team with a horrendous defense in 2012 and an absolute shite sandwich of a roster in 2013 and 2014 because of godawful recruiting, and he probably bolts either before or after 2014.

Huh? Nobody else even commented on it because it doesn't pertain to anyone else.

Yes..what's so bad about thinking that? Tubby is one of greatest coaches out there. He turned UGA into a winner then bolted. If he had stayed for 20 years like Donovan has, you really think it's a stretch to say we'd be a tourney team every year and compete for a title every now and then?

ARKY:

Should be not letting Ol Bobby take his bike out on the weekends... Ark couldve been the SCar of the West

ETA: NVM i guess Arky dont feel the same way that i do about Ol Bobby... it appears Bert has completely brain-washed them! Well, its going to be hilarious if they play Louisville in these next couple years.

How about...what if Dickerson had gone to A&M after they bought him that gold car?


I don't wanna think about what would have happened to the program after that.

I'd say what if we weren't on probation in the '94 season when we went undefeated?

The flip side being, what if we had gotten the death penalty for "repeated infractions" instead of just a year of probation?

Also, what if we had beaten Arkansas in LR in 1975?

I honestly think that is number 2 and I wasn't even alive then.

A clear number 1 for A&M and Kentucky is "What if Bear never left?"

3. What if LHN never existed?
4. What if JFF went to Oregon?
5. What if we beat Texas during our last encounter?

What if Florida beat bama in 09?


Interesting, but it probably doesn't change anything from Bama's perspective because of '11 and '12.

However, if Florida beats Bama in that SECCG, they'd have curb-stomped Texas because Meyer always seems to get his teams up for bowl games. Tebow probably wins the Heisman after the Bama game and goes down as probably the greatest QB in CFB history with 2 Heismans and 3 rings.

Of late, what if Miami medically cleared Brees?
UA careens into SMUville?
UF wins back to back CC's and NC's (2008,2009)
LSU wins 2011 NC?
SEC streak ends in 2012?
There's no SecRant?

The ball falls harmlessly to the turf, and UGA wins.

If we had just blown the coverage like usual, we win. Dammit.

Did you forget about Krag?

Krag kicked guy after guy off the team. They essentially lost an entire recruiting class, much like Arkansas losing 24 players leaving both programs roster in bad shape.

Nope, he left Kragthorpe with very little and then Strong built them back up.
