re: Bert Bielema takes a shot at the SEC

"They kind of want to live in 2005 forever," he noted mid-sentence. That line followed Bielema touting the vision of Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti and acknowledging that his former commissioner, Greg Sankey, has to protect the SEC.
Big talk for a guy who came down here and failed.

re: Tennessee needed help from the refs and got lucky in 1998.

I guess Bama was lucky to beat Texas in the natty.
No doubt. But let's put some clarification on this.
Bama TOOK UT's QB out. FSU's QB never played and was never going to. This fact was well known going into the 1998 BCSNCG.
Also, Bama won a boatload of titles after that Rose Bowl against the Horns, so it's hard to call them lucky. :lol:

No program has been more protected than them. Hence why Bear was given extra easy SEC games so he could win the conference.
Uhh, more than 1/3 of Tennessee's SEC games they've ever played have been against teams with all-time losing records.
VOLS have played UK and Vandy a combined 238 times. No one else even comes close. :lol:

Tennessee beat two teams that finished in the top ten, one of whom was without their star QB who went on to win the Heisman Trophy.

Alhambra Reserva is an elite Spanish beer. Hard to find stateside though.

If Lacy and Chambliss are healthy, then yes, they should hit 1,000 yards and 3,500 yards, respectively.
I don't know about a 1,000 yard receiver.

LSU has 24 but I'm guessing that 22 number is because of Derrius Guice.
I’ve never understood the logic of vacating wins and records, particularly as to Guice. He was eligible when he played and never declared ineligible retroactively, to my knowledge.

Pretty sure that if you pull the covers off of Landry's involvement, they are using public funds to go to the LSU NIL, which is also why he is inviting their top 40 donors to the governor's mansion to discuss new investment opportunities.
There is a Long history of that in Baton Rouge, no pun intended, but yes I will accept praise and adoration for the pun.

There is no doubt Vaught is the best coach in Ole Miss history.

I am not well ready on this history, what is this about?
Or was this about the dog peeing celebration?
Yes. We scored a very late touchdown to go down by 1. All we needed was to make an extra point to send the game to OT, but because of Elijah Moore's famous dog peeing celebration (he wasn't the first to do that, by the way), we were penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct. Our kicker, Luke Logan, then shanked the extended PAT and State won. He was objectively the worst kicker in SEC history too. He missed 1/4 of the field goals he attempted throughout his career. :lol:
It's also sometimes called the "piss, miss, and double dismiss" because Luke and Moorhead were fired after the game (which got the Rebs Lane and the Dawgs Leach (RIP)).

Posted by Tornado Alley on 7/8/26 at 9:45 am to Marcelo Lavanda
I am so worried our students will continually disrupt the game and we'll be penalized, and the penalty will cost us the game, which is somewhat analogous to the famous Piss n' Miss.

Donovan is probably the guy who rounds out the top four: Spurrier, Tebow, Donovan, E Smith
We don't have to make this a Mt. Rushmore. I don't think there is any real comparison between Donovan and Smith's popularity on campus and among Florida fans to that of Spurrier and Tebow. They're very clearly head and shoulders above everyone else.

I'm no Gator, but I don't see how Spurrier isn't the answer to this question. He and Tebow are the most beloved men in the history of that school. Probably the most clear cut duo of any SEC school save Bama with Bear and Sabear. There really isn't any challenger to their status. Maybe Emmitt Smith? Maybe. But probably not.
