re: I have more class in my little finger…..

I hate to agree but I have to agree.
Of course, FSU had 15 of their starters sit out, so you could kind of bank on a blowout result. A terrible end to what was a spectacular season for the Seminoles. Nobody though can blame FSU for not showing up after having their earned spot in the playoffs take...
re: I think it’s cool that OM fans get to finally see a big game in Atlanta

Well they've been to the Peach Bowl twice before, winning once and losing once. Penn State will be an interesting matchup and might give viewers a tight game.
Of course I will root for the Rebs, they are fellow SEC and Mississippians.
But I agree that the whole "co-champs" deal is a joke. Y...

re: Memphis has a better winning % against Power 5 teams than Tennessee in the last 10 years

I'm not going to disparage an SEC team by comparing them to an AAC team.
Has Memphis become a consistently good program in their conference? Sure they have. Happy for them too.
Could they match the 10-3 record from this year getting their headlights punched out through an 8 game SEC schedule? Do...
re: Hey Kentucky fans! what do you think about Mark Stoops now?
Posted by Maroonster on 12/29/23 at 7:11 pm
Actually, Stoops has been a very successful coach at UK and has built their once lowly program into a consistent winner. In his 11 years coaching the Wildcats, he's got the most wins of any head football coach at the university. I think his only losing seasons were the first three (2013-15) and he's...
re: When Georgia beats the snot out of FSU will the rhetoric stop?

UGA beating a depleted Florida State team won't make the CFP selection justified. You know that, I know that and everyone who puts aside conference bias knows it. Just saying....
re: tOfficial 2023 Egg Bowl Hate Week Thread
Posted by Maroonster on 11/21/23 at 7:47 am
No actual hate here as I'm my 50's and past basing my life on whether my school wins or loses a football game.
That stated, I'd love nothing more than to beat the Oxford preppies.
Favorite Egg Bowl memory was the 1999 game. I was there and the immaculate deflection is still as awesome today as i...
re: 20 years ago, Ole Miss hung a banner

Co-Champs of the SEC West is a fancy way of saying 2nd Place.
You didn't play for the conference title in Atlanta, which is the real prize. Ask Arkansas about 1998. They'll tell you the same thing....
re: I get so tired of hearing about how great the Michigan and OSU rivalry is.
Posted by Maroonster on 11/21/23 at 6:51 am
Would I put it in the top 5 of rivalry games?
Sure, however it's certainly not number 1.
Here's how I'd rank them:
1. Army vs Navy
2. Alabama vs Auburn
3. Georgia vs Florida
4. Ohio State vs Michigan
5. Mississippi State vs Ole Miss
