Yes, we could have lost to those teams, but outside of Mizzou there wasn't a single time we had a low percentage chance to win either of those games.


The Kentucky game was identical to the Mizzou game. Needed a last-second drive by Eason to steal the game.

Agreed. We were 3 individual plays from being 10-2, as well.

4 years????So now his timline has been moved to '20?
Sorry,KS gets us to Atlanta in '18 or he's out.Thats plenty of time.



So when exactly did you want to give CMR "3 more years"?

And you're saying you were only calling for CMR's head during the '15 season?Highly doubt that

shite yes, we better fire him in 3 years unless there's dramatic improvement.

We fired Richt because he couldn't get over the 10-win hump.

Kirby's job is to get us over that hump......not to be an on-the-job training developmental project.

Nah, we accept mediocrity now.

I guess we just don't like Christians or something.

This wasn't a ground zero rebuild and he was left with talent on this roster...more than Strong inherited at Texas.

So McElwain wins the SECe his first 2 years and Mahlzan plays for NC in his 2nd but poor,little,KS gets 5 years?

The difference between Uga and uf in 2015 and 2016 has been slim.

No it wasn't. Honestly, did you watch the UK game?

Eye test wise this team was the worst since 2010 (arguably worse). When have we went a whole season where we didn't have one good blowout win? Almost losing to Nicholls, losing to Vandy at home, blown out by a below average Ole Miss team, and zero wins over rivals.

Playcalling has been suspect all year long and way too predictable. Would love to kick Chaney to the curb. I've seen enough of his offense.

Richt hasn't won an SEC in 10 years but if Kirby doesn't do it by year 2 fire his arse.

Got it.

Because we hired him to fix that problem. Not start a 8 year rebuild job.

Win. Now.

Dang you're right. Still, we're lucky to get a pick six to win that one. Just an absolutely frustrating season.

If we are win now, I would love to make a run at Enos from Arky.

Kirby should get at least 3 years IMO, and I'm one of his biggest critics, but I'd like to see what he can do with is recruits. He just has to work on his clock and game management and we should honestly pay someone this offseason to sit down and work with him on it.

I'll be very disappointed if we don't show improvement next year. No team in the east that Should be a favorite over us to based on the talent levels. My concern is you can't build a good OLine in a year but we should be serviceable enough to win.

But we should just fire Kirby now and start over.

I'll give him till 2018. If we don't win at least 10 games and make the SECCG that regular season, he was a failure based on what the goal of the hire was.

I always said: Kirby fricking smart? Are you serious? People crucified me. Remember... that same guy declined an opportunity (twice) to be our DC... How much time should we decline his arse?
