I read somewhere else he was 4-13 in Top 10 games. Strangely, two of those wins were last year in back to back weeks.

#7 Ole Miss was unmasked as a fraud and finished the season unranked

Bama was down by their standards last year but still a good win.

Before that:

2020 - Beat #1 Clemson, then blown out by #3 Clemson later that year.

2018 - Beat #7 Stanford, a team that would finish unranked with 4 losses.

So those are the four wins? Yikes.

By the way, I had not really paid attention to Notre Dame's pretty weak scheduling. There were many years ND would play no or just one ranked team during Kelly's tenure.

Choker. Not a good coach against equal competion. Maybe we should call him Big Game Brian.

Good news:

If "AP top 10 matchup" means, as it certainly must, that he's coaching a top 10 team, then he won't have to worry about dropping to 3-11 anytime this season.

But he beat Bama... I was surprised he wasn't given a contract extension at the end of last season.


As soon as he really starts getting on the hot seat we’ll take one on the chin and let him get that Bama win that keeps him on the LSU sidelines for another 2-3 years.

Locally this is known as “Jimboing”

You’re not wrong.

A win vs Bama tends to inflate your value right before you come crashing back down.

Now please, who was that Top 10 win against last year?

Bama. The same team that he is 1-2 against when Bama is in the top 10.

Agreed. Bama was absolute trash last year.

And one of those 3 wins was against you, Alabama last year. Didn't even win the west last year and y'all continue to talk shite like y'all went 15-0 last year. Saban is on his way out. You're going to be 7-5, 8-4 football team after he leaves.

LSU might have won the West but they weren’t half the team Bama was. Georgia would have beaten Bama but I doubt they would have laid 50 points on them like they did on LSU.

Hugh Freeze never coached at an Auburn or LSU.

You know who else has bad records against AP t10?

FCS and group of 5 coaches.

I swear, some of you BK sympathizers are crazy delusional

Ole Miss is neither an FCS or Group of 5 school.
