“People think I'm the greatest damn coach in the world," said the great Bear Bryant, "but Neyland taught me everything I know."
That quote speaks well of both men. Neyland above Pat everyday. He also served in both World Wars. That generation of coach had some genuine heroes in it”
Neyland gets a negative for whining after losing to State 7-0 in 1950 and vowing to never bring a Tennessee football team back to State. And it would be almost 40 years before Tennessee would play State at Scott Field.
If you lose to a team, maybe just maybe they were the better team that day regardless of where the game was played. But to act like a baby and cry about it like that shows very little character as a Coach.

Agree. State’s maroon jerseys and gray pants are sharp looking in football and baseball. Basketball just needs to stick to basic white at home and maroon on the road.
But if black is not one of primary colors then it should NEVER be part of a uniform combination. Even a special one.

Depends on the sport. Football/basketball is about 90% when we wear black. Baseball (which is really strange) about 50%.
In general, the last three years, football has been about 90% crap. Baseball & Basketball have been reasonably successful in the recent decade.

The black uniforms are beyond stupid. I absolutely abhor them. 90% of the time we play like crap when we wear them. Our colors used to be maroon & white.
Now I don’t know…
I have said multiple times that I am okay with a special/throwback uniform once a year in football and a couple of times in basketball/baseball but that is it. And they should never be black ever…
They are so ugggghhhh.

Yep. KY is our kryptonite in basketball.
Over the last 15 years they have played their best game of the year every time they play us. Just the way it is.

Why would leave Indiana? He is almost 65. I suspect this is his last job.

If they are up 35 after the half, can there be a running clock?
Not everyone is accepted but there is a difference between a casual fan and an alumnus who has been invested in the team for decades.
This is my way of approaching this. I am not an Ole Miss fan but I have several really good friends who are lifelong OM fans (legitimate graduates/alumni and not sidewalk bandwagon fans) and if OM wins it all I will be very happy for them.
I actually think they are going to win it all just to put an egg on Kiffin’s face for quitting on his team after the regular season. Because that is what he did. Nobody else is to blame, it is all on him. And further more, I think after 3-4 years of winning 8-9 games a year in Baton Rouge, he is going to get run out of town on the rails. And he will never win a NC.

They are already competitive and Miller will have them winning games going forward this year and over the next several years.

Great win for State on the road!
Coaching is part of it but we have got to upgrade the roster tremendously on the OL/DL to have any chance of being better next season.

And then we are just plain stupid getting US penalty. Geez.
Another FG. Whoop Whoop
Kind of like what I have said several times this year.
One team will lose this game and one team will not lose this game.

Yep it feels like we should be losing by three TD’s and to be only down by 6 at the half is amazing.
Taylor is talented but he is a Freshman and we are going to see plays like that last one.
And then he can turn around and make a great play with his arm or his legs.
We will see how the second half plays out.

Terrible end of the half.
He has got to get rid of the ball…
