re: Hey Bama- How's Jermaine Burton doing?
Posted by Rusty Bates on 8/20/22 at 4:41 pm
He was with the 1s, going against the 2s mainly.

You’d like getting out of the Iron Bowl every year, wouldn’t you?

I'm not certain if he was outside the tackle box or not, but there was no receiver even remotely in the area, and the ball did not reach the line of scrimmage.
You need your eyes checked, pal.

re: Alabama, what are some things we should look out for vs L-Monroe

No, those events are definitely comparable to losing to ULM

If you lose, they might buy billboard space. Also, Pearl Harbor and 9/11.

re: A&M fans- why was your game vs Bama moved up after 2012?
Posted by Rusty Bates on 7/11/15 at 10:41 pm
Not an A&M fan, but I believe it had something to do with the weird schedule flip the conference had to do to accommodate 14 teams. That first year (2012) you had a lot of series that got repeat home games from 2011.
The following link doesn't exactly answer your direct question, but shows the scheduling challenges that were faced.

But the conference most likely did it to give Alabama the advantage, as always.

re: Should flinching on a pickoff without throwing the ball be outlawed in baseball?

On a pick-off play, is a pitcher allowed to throw straight to second base on a runner stealing from first?
I'm pretty sure throwing to an unoccupied base from the rubber is a balk. It's legal if he steps off, but that requires the base runner to have already started his steal before the pitcher starts his motion, which only happens a small percentage of the time.
re: Sammie Coates said Alabama is soft as shite and has no chance

He would have gone to Southern Miss if his friend hadn't talked him into going to camp at Auburn. It didn't take much to talk him into committing to Auburn once they offered.
I agree that comment sounds out of character for Sammie, but it's on the internet, so it must be true.

re: Why doesn't Alabama have any famous Iron Bowl comebacks?
Posted by Rusty Bates on 11/27/14 at 7:49 am
The only time I can remember Alabama accumulating a deficit large enough to warrant an "epic" comeback was the Brodie Croyle fetal position game. That's the only time Auburn has blown us out since I've been alive.
re: Both Arkansas and Missouri will wear home jerseys Friday
Posted by Rusty Bates on 11/27/14 at 7:45 am
I think it would look better with both teams wearing their usual pants.

It's not necessarily stupid to have that little weed on you when driving in a normal manner. However, it is incredibly stupid to speed through a school zone with any amount of weed and smoke in your car, as in this case.
re: Do you think bounties exist in the SEC?

To be fair, Dareus got a new suit AND a new charger after the 09 BCSNC

Yes. Auburn defenders racked up 11 or 12 G's during the 05 iron bowl.
