There’s no other way around this.

You simply cannot have a fanbase that’s happy with playing Kentucky close.

Cut the losses now, I know it’s not a good look, but this is the SEC, it’s expected around here. Most coaches would still jump at the chance to coach in this league.

His buyout is dirt cheap, find someone to fix this before it gets out of hand.

Pull the trigger Sterk.

If we give up 500 more yards and 40 to UK we are giving up 60 to UGA.

Staring down a 1-5 start. Odom is shite. We will prolly seat about 10K fans our last home game.

So, if .Saban was our coach right now, you'd be looking for his scalp too? All I hear is fire the coach...fire the coach! So I can understand, it's not just Odom, you'd fire Saban too if the team was playing this bad and he was the HC?

Stop comparing HOF coaches to fetid dumpster fires like Odom. Odom couldn't carry Saban's jock.

We want Odom fired because he's clueless as a HC.

This board is going to suck for awhile.

If we play with the effort and pseudo execution we did last night for the rest of the year we are going to beat a few teams and Odom will get another year.

Prepare yourselves for the possibility

We won’t beat teams losing the turnover battle and giving up 500 yards. Not Vandy. Not Arkansas.

Don’t worry about the board sucking. The board will suck less when the team sucks less.

Meh, we'll see. I think we are going to win a few games if we continue the trajectory of last night.... which would result in Odom getting another year.... which will result in this board losing their collective minds.

Once November comes around people aren't even going to pay attention to the football team. Sad but true.

This team will go 4-8.

Teams can run Ace Black on 3rd down at will unless the line starts getting home on 3rd down. Beckner and Frazier have been very disappointing so far.

I'm terrified that Odom will beat Arkansas and/or Vandy. We will beat Idaho and Uconn so that will put him at 4 or 5 wins and he's back next year

We have to get a good coach. The best possible. Anything else that happens needs to be done with that one overall goal in mind.

We could have gotten Campbell, Norvell, or possibly even Richt when we hired BO. Those guys are kicking some arse.

Once Jerry Kill mentioned Campbell to Pollard, ISU went all in. I'm not convinced that Campbell ever seriously considered MU.

Richt wasn't going to turn down Miami's built in recruiting advantage regardless of what he was offered by MR.

I think Barry will be a good HC, but it's going to take another 2 or 3 years for him to figure it out. He wasn't ready for an SEC gig.

If the Kentucky game is the baseline for how Mizzou plays over the next 7 games, BO will be back for year 3.

There’s no guarantee that the Kentucky game is the baseline, but if it is there 6 winnable games left of the schedule. Split those at 3-3, be competitive in the losses. There’s a solid chance he’s back. 10 of the 11 offensive starters from Kentucky will return.

I agree. There’s lots of winnable games on the schedule. The problem is that we had plenty of winnable games on the schedule already. And we’re 1-4.

He’s a shite coach.

Dude I'm sorry but Kentucky is not a good football team.

They are playing maybe the easiest schedule I've ever seen.

Their 3 SEC games so far are USC, Florida, and Mizzou. They've barely beat mediocre teams and lost to a bad Florida team.

Even a halfway decent Mizzou team should be 4-1 or 3-2 at worst.

It's really fricking sad we're happy about moral victories against fricking Kentucky.

This might be the WORST East division ever, and we're going to finish dead fricking last in it.

I'd be shocked if Mizzou wins 2 SEC games, so 4-8 seems optimistic, the same shite record we had last year.

I'm sorry I will not be content with a 3rd 4-8 season next year while Barry figures out how to be a coach. That's a hole we may never get out of.

Kentucky probably going to win 9-10 games this year. Also no ones happy with a loss, but there were signs in that game that if built upon would make getting to 6 wins possible.

Based on the play in the first 4 games Mizzou would have won at most 3 games and BO for sure would have been gone.
