Florida is being hosed - this game is being called like ours was. Bama's DBs grabbing / holding / jumping on the backs of defenders...no flags. Just saw a blatant heads to the face from the same guy that got Hitt ( or least same general position )...no flag. Bama o-line leading all players in tackles...no flags. Bama WRs pushing off...no flags. A few BS calls on Florida for phantom holds on offense and defense.

Bama boosters are in full force once again!

I wish there was someway they could both lose - maybe no one ever scores and they go into so many overtimes they finally call it a tie? But if a team has to win, I hope its Florida...not only do I respect them, but if LSU no longer existed, I'd pull for them. Bama...I just want Bama to 'not exist any more'...

It would have been a bigger travesty had they called holding on that play imo.

Yeah, cus getting the call right instead of awarding a win to a team that didn't earn it within the rules of the game is such a travesty. Go back to Iowa you and kill yourself.

It's not coaching or anything like that with him. He must be let go, though.

I keep seeing this, but with no 'rest of the story' - did he sleep with someone's wife or something? Hell email it to me if you don't want to post it please! ( theghost_and_thedarkness@yahoo.com )

The dude is 73 yrs old now...I can't remember who he coached under. Was it Curly or Dinardo?

Dinardo and one of the biggest douches to ever step foot on a football field. Morris would talk crap about players he didn't like / personally go after and had his mind made up as to 'who was who' without anyone ever taking a snap. And don't get me started on his playbook; I think it was featured in that movie 'The Comebacks'.

The correct answer is:

1. UF
2 crystals, possible 3rd, plays in the toughest BCS conference.

2. LSU
2 crystals, undefeated in BCS bowls, plays in the toughest BCS conference.

3. USC
1 crystal, 1 ap, good BCS bowl record, plays in a weak conference.

4. Texas
1 crystal, possible 2nd, plays in a decent BCS conference.

5. Oklahoma
1 crystal, 4 NCG appearances, plays in a decent BCS conference.

6. Ohio St
1 crystal, 3 NCG appearances, .500 BCS bowl team, mid-to-weak BCS conference.



If Texas wins a crystal this year, they jump USC, but that's it. Cake-walk conference schedules that pad win percentages can't compete when comparing to teams performing well in a conference two tiers above the next.

In the rant and coaches changes board, threads on rumors of the offensive staff are being removed; why? Is it somehow against this forums rules to discuss what folks are saying is happening to our coaching staff? Or is this some kind of 'stick your head in the sand' ridiculous 'image' thing?

We've had the more stable coaching situation of the 2.

I think most would agree that we currently have as good if not better talent on the field.

We've had damn near as highly ranked recruiting classes.

However we've lost to UF, BAMA, and ARKY 2 years in row. God forbid we lose this weekend and we have to add another team to that list.

All the while they are going for their second undefeated SEC regular season something I'm not sure if we've ever done.

What could it be?

Are you a Gump incognito?

With JL serving up two pick sixes in regulation, it still took Bama another JL interception in overtime to beat us last year. LSU was beating Bama most of the game this year, despite the refs, but in the end - with injuries mind you - the refs & Bama were too much.

LSU >>> Bama

Get over yourself Gump - Bama ain't all that.

I don't mind when he gives a 'politically correct' statement that says someone didn't perform well ( ex. room for improvement, work in progress, etc ) but to blatantly lie or worse - really believe that the player performed well - disgusts me. Man, I jumped on the Miles bandwagon pretty hard, but the way he is handling things this season makes me want to jump out of a moving car.

WTF did we get so many vaginas for fans? "Boohoo don't boo the 'college kid'". The moment you say 'college kid', unless you're talking about a prodigy, you're an idiot. These players are adults playing big time ball for a big time program. If they can't nut up and expect criticism, then they can GTFO. I was a college player, my youngest brother is a college player - it comes with the job. Deal.

Crowton refuses to use his player's strenghts. How many times have we seen:

1. The 'speed' option with TH / RS at pitch back ran to the short side of the field?

2. CS running an off tackle from the shotgun across the formation, where he has to move laterally more than going downhill.

3. Fade routes, or lack thereof, to our tall WRs.

4. No 3 step drop play action slants.

5. Spot passes so our WRs have to stand still and wait on the ball rather than a bubble screen or regular routes.

6. Something works, then disappears from the gameplan.

And the list goes on...


And when it comes to QB's reading their progressions, it is my belief that Crowton doesn't give them a progression, but rather instructs them to 'throw it to this guy' ( see Jefferson's quote in regards to the UGA game when CS broke the winning TD run - Crowton called a pass and told him to throw it to Lafell ). This would explain some of JL's tendency to throw pick-6s and JJ's tendency to take a sack - if 'the guy' ain't open, JL forces while JJ holds onto the ball ( see JL's first pick-6 last year vs Auburn; he pumped then threw the ball anyway, almost like he was thinking 'man this is gonna suck'... ).

And don't even get me started on the meerkat offense...
