Jack Lambert was undersized even for his day, Drac would destroy a college QB and make him watch his own death. Mean Joe would make Mendoza cry when he hit him. Pavia would be begging to quit. If played by today's rules, different story. The oline gets to hold today, back in the 70s and 80s todays blocking was illegal. Imagine watching the modern D line guy getting cut block over and over.

I think he's a good coach. He can't do what Saban did and stockpile players anymore. I liked the little dictator, but he bent any rule he could, whined about shite he couldn't compete with, and turned his head to let the bag men roll. Do I blame him, not one bit. Now everyone has legal bag men. It will be rare to see an undefeated team in the SEC anymore. Adding OU and TexAss did nobody any favors. The B1G is weaker top to bottom today, but that's going to change. Northwestern and Rutgers might not care so much, but everyone else does, and will add some dollars to the pot. Look at Vandy and Indiana, that will expand. There aren't going to be any gimme games anymore with the SEC and eventually the B1G

Maybe the contract should be performance based as well. Giving a kid a chunk of change, and we are stuck with him. See Ott at OU. If we had to pay him another year people might shite themselves.

Nope - it's going to take an at large from SEC/BIG/ACC/B12

I would agree with that one. JH didn't seem too daunting for one of the weakest Oklahoma teams in 50 years.

Yes, if there was shite talk or rivalry implications, then it might hype them up.

I could see this developing into a rivalry. OU coaches, players, and fans prefer rivals that are strong. Nebraska was our biggest in conference rival forever. Totally different rivalry than TexAss. With the Big Red of the North - there was mutual respect. It was something to behold. There was good natured smack talk, but it was respectful. I can definitely see OU and Alabama developing that same thing. Games that will be hard fought, with the winner getting a congratulations and good luck. We hate TexAss. There isn't a school out there that I want them to beat (well maybe Notre Dame). Unless it serves the Sooners for Bama to lose, I don't root against them. The stat from the tweet about weeks combined at #1 says a lot - and respect is definitely deserved for both programs.

Know who always had starters on special teams?

Bob Stoops, Meyer, pretty much any coach that wins. Yes sometimes they get hurt, but you want your best 11 out there.

With the dumpster fire at LSU in the administration, and Auburn's inherently nutso expectations going through too many coaches in just a few years - I would put them 7th and 8th respectfully.

If they fire him, the next coach is going to be more expensive - and have a bigger buyout. LSU fired Orgeron how long after a Natty? BK has had 4 years, and one year was close to a SEC championship. It seems like the fans and admin is expecting the impossible. If you think LSU is a dumpster fire now, just wait. You will become Auburn. BK was a horrible hire, but firing him is even worse. Tell the governor to shut the frick up and take care of your god forsaken state, and quit worrying about football.

You really are a weird frick aren't you?
