Ridiculous to fire Mullen right now. He’s never going to win a title but we are consistently in the mix now. We have to give him 21, and 22 to see if he can get over the hump. No title by 22? Move on ain’t happening.

Mullen 29-8


Do yourself a favor and look at the composite record of those teams that make up his 29 wins. It’s startling how bad the record is. Mullen is 2-6 against teams that finished ranked in the top 25 while at Florida.

First 3 Years:
Spurrier: 2 SEC titles
Meyer: 2 SEC titles, 2 NCs
Mullen: 0 SEC titles

Mullen is 0-14 against ranked teams in late November/December.

At Florida; Dan Mullen vs top 25 finishers in regular season : (2-6)

2018: 1-2 vs teams finished ranked in top 25
2019: 0-2 vs teams finished ranked in top 25
2020: 1-2 vs teams finished ranked in top 25

Auburn finished in the top 25 in 2019. Michigan finished in the top 25 in 2018.

I'm off the Mullen bandwagon, and 2021 is a very serious turning point year for the program, but at least get your facts straight.

dan mullen had msu at number one in the nation. that's incredible in itself.

he's a great coach.


That 2014 MSU team didn’t beat a single team with a better record than 8-5 and lost 3 of their last 4 games. Being #1 for 2 weeks was complete fool’s gold.

True. Good catch

They don't count. He said regular season.


I still say he is an alter, though. I just can't think of which fan base. My knee jerk reaction is he is from Georgia, since we troll Florida a ton, but he just feels like LSU to me.

My mistake, I figured after they lost to Minnesota in the bowl game they weren’t ranked. So Mullen is 3-6 against top 25.

I was only referencing regular season. Mullen regularly shits the bed against good teams in the regular season is my broad point.

He beat no. 2 Auburn in 2014 to take the no. 1 spot in the polls while at Mississippi State.

That was pretty impressive.

Yes. I’d say 2008 was the only better offense than this seasons. 2001 is comparable with Grossman but Trask was better and had better receivers. 95 and 96 with Wuerffel are comparable but not as good as Trask either.

Jt at qb and Davis, JR, RL3, and Sine in the game, you lose in a blowout.

Idk about that. Is the game different? Absolutely. A UGA blow out? Doubtful

Auburn finished the year at 8-5. Including losing 4 of its last 5 games and losing to a 9-3 UGA team by a final score of 34-7.

I agree. It would be interesting to see how the games would go, but we would not blow out this Florida team. We might not even win, although we might. Totally different game.

We had Pitts for a quarter. We weren’t at full strength either. It was stupid when our fans claimed injuries the last two years. Apparently the team that recruits better is just fine to do it though. fricking embarrassed for you guys.

We lost our 2nd starting safety on that same play, Rex.

You are gonna have to take off quite a few more of your players to claim y’all were decimated like uga was.

We had Cine for a quarter. We were missing our All American safety already. We were missing two of our DLinemen. One LB was out and another was hobbled. We were missing a couple of our CBs.

Okay. You were missing Pitts for three quarters. Who else? I'll listen.

It was dumb because you were only missing two players both years. One of them was the shoe thrower himself, so lets not act like they were crippling injuries. AND, it didn't stop you from claiming that was the reason we won, either, did it?

ricking embarrassed for you guys.


Dude. Maybe you missed the part where I said even with our injuries we might have lost?
Maybe you should take a break from the board?

So you don’t have the most talented roster in the country and recruiting rankings mean nothing? Our injuries in a 7 point game last year meant nothing but yours do? Hypocrisy at its finest. Good talk mutt. Injuries matter for you but not the Gators. Even though we have no where near the depth. I thought the gap wasn’t closing bitch? 4 more injuries is all it took to close the gap??? More lies from you, you’re such a little bitch. Just like your coach. Who voted us 4 and y’all 7 by the way. Kirby knows.

If you aren't going to get the stats right, I am not going to waste my time arguing with you.

First 3 Years:
Spurrier: 1 SEC title
Meyer: 1 SEC title, 1 NC


Obviously not a Gator fan. This shite is easy to look up.
