SEC scheduling has been so dumb for years.

It should be that if you are a 4 year player, you should have played at least once in every SEC stadium by the time you graduate.

Kiffin has not adjusted to his new strengths in playing in Tiger Stadium


He’s lost 1 game to Bama in Tiger Stadium and we think he can’t coach at home????

Willie Taggert at Oregon and then a year later, Willie Taggert at FSU.

No, the Conference Commissioners are the ones who decided Conference Championships were no longer relevant by expanding Conferences and getting too big.
Everyone had Kentucky penciled in as an automatic win in that preseason 9-3 scenario…

2. 4th & 4 attempt from the 9 Down 10-3, offense is moving it well but has now stalled a few times. 3.5 minutes left in the 1st half, and we're getting the ball first in the 3rd quarter. Take your points and stay in the fight. 4th & 4 does not have a high enough probability of conversion when there's still 34 minutes left in the game.


I’ve got no issue with being aggressive here.

You had Bama pinned back deep if you failed to convert and still maintained high probability of getting a stop with chance to still go 2 for 1. The alternative was taking 3 points, kicking off, and giving Bama better field position for a chance to drive and get points at the end of half.

Defense got the stop and then Sam Leavitt proceeded to Sam Leavitt.

It doesn’t bother me at all.

It’s not like Kiffin would be criticized any less had he been all business and still got arse kicked by Bama.

If we both win out, LSU is 100% going to be ranked ahead of OU in the CFP rankings, regardless of OU being higher in the SEC standings.


True, but thread title put emphasis on SEC Standings.

I thought it was wild to see Oklahoma finish so high when playing around with MRED’s SEC Standings calculator.
quote:

You lost me right there Oklahoma has 4 losses already


1 of those losses is to Michigan.

If Oklahoma and LSU both win out, Oklahoma finishes 3rd in SEC and LSU 4th in SEC.
A lot more needs to happen than just winning out.

This is the path for LSU to finish 3rd in SEC:

LSU to go 3-0 vs Texas; @ Tennessee, and @ Arkansas.

Oklahoma to win vs Ole Miss and then go 1-1 vs A&M and @ Mizzou.

Kentucky to go 0-2 vs Florida and @ Mizzou.

Ole Miss to lose @ Oklahoma.

UGA and Bama to win out.

There’s no point in getting all bent out of shape about it. If not part of a larger set-up to a joke in his act, Chappelle is just looking for attention by mentioning Kirk’s name and now he’s getting that attention.

That was just a football play and targeting was never meant for plays like that.

Targeting rule was designed to protect receivers.
quote:

I believe they out gained us in every major category in 2011


The primary difference between 2011 game of the century and the rematch on 1/9/12 was that the Bama kicker made his FGs on 1/9/12.
quote:

5.) Defense was exhausted because they were on the field all night. But not impressed with our tackling either.


This part just isn’t true.

We beat Bama in TOP 32:45 to 27:15. There was only 1 stretch in the 4th Quarter where we went 3 and out and then 4 and out.

So glad we had some youth sports pop up and conflict with the 2:30 kickoff.

Saved hundreds of dollars

That’s a horseshite call. As soon as he catches the ball in the end zone, which he clearly did, the play is over.


Have never understood why rushers can lose the ball immediately after crossing plane and still a TD but receivers have to do so much more.
