This may be where I am thankfull for Bobby Hebert. I don't think WWL will put Jerry Finebaum opposite Bobby on the radio down here.
Not to mention we already have "The Food Show" from 3-6 on ESPN radio.

Finebaum will probably get called on some of his knucklehead rants...I have a suspicion he will tone it down bit.

I do too. I don't think he can do what he has done nationally.
Either way I doubt his show is aired in NOLA. But an AL love/bitch fest won't get carried in CA or WA or some place like that.

In fairness, some of the best running backs have been underclassmen the past few years.

WTF? Those lists are a joke.

We haven't even decided on a starting QB yet, and they have Worley penciled in. Butch Jones will be glad that has been decided for him.

That coaches list.

Bielema and Jones at 8 and 11 when they have won what, 7 conference championships between them? Bielema has 3 and Jones 4.

Now for the biggest joke on the list. Miles ranked below Franklin, Sumlin, Mullen, and even Richt?

For those keeping score, Miles has two BSC crystal trophies and several SEC Championships.

At least Richt has won the SEC. Franklin, Sumlin, and Mullen have won NOTHING...ever! ZILCH! ZERO! NADA!

Not bad RB list but I'd have Tre Mason a bit higher and Kenny Hilliard a good bit higher. Surprised to see him below Alfred Blue. I like Blue...solid but I've never seen anything from him that I would call exceptional. Hilliard has some exceptional qualities.

Sporting News HC list a bit more sensible.
Saban

Miles
Richt
Bielema
Sumlin
Muschamp
Franklin
Jones
Freeze
Pinkel
Malzahn
Mullen
Stoops



I agree with 1st 4 completely. The 2nd 4 look good though some switches could be made with no problem....imo.
=============================
As a qualifier on top 4...since this is a conference list, these are the only ones currently coaching that have won conference championship.
Spurrier 6
Saban 4
Miles 2
Richt 2

Athlons seems to push the boundaries of good common sense every year. I think they set-out to be controversial when they sit down at their table to talk about it every preseason.

I full believe that Jeff Scott will not be starting by the end of the season

What'll be interesting to watch is if Mobley or Clemons moves up to take some of Sanders snaps. We're deepest at RB right now and there's some solid kids there.

Miles has one BCS trophy. But yea, the list having him at 7 is dumb as hell.

From your link:

10 Unlikely Stadiums That Deserve to Host the Super Bowl

Here is what I came up with—and yes, I know some aren't stadiums but this is my dream, so deal with it—in no particular order:

Tiger Stadium
Location: Baton Rouge, La.
Capacity: 92,542
Host: LSU Tigers

Neyland Stadium in Knoxville is the biggest. Sanford Stadium in Athens is the most picturesque. Bryant-Denny in Tuscaloosa is the most successful. But for gameday atmosphere, there is nothing quite like Death Valley at night in the SEC. The food, culture, fans, smells and Richter Scale inducing noise echoing from LSU’s Tigers Stadium is second to none. Among the nation’s best college football venue’s, this one might be the best.

You are correct. I was forgetting that Saban won the first one at LSU.
