He was the reason they didn't want Lacy, so it's a little surprising.

I think those are the right top two. After that, I think Ole Miss, Oklahoma, and Bama could all be there with some luck.

There's almost no such thing anymore as a team that doesn't need some luck to win the SEC. It's borderline whether there still exist teams that can make the playoffs without some luck. We needed it last year and got it. The only year we really should have made the playoffs regardless of good or bad luck was 2024, but that's not accounting for the bad luck of Kiffin's girlfriend breaking up with him when we really needed him to be focused.

I can't get my head around this new era of Bama football. Last year they look like they were going to suck, and then they made the championship game and the playoffs. I'm just going to assume they remain a major favorite every year until something proves that wrong.

wasn't this the year they decided they couldn't in good conscience keep all that money and split it between an Omaha and an Oxford food bank?

I think it’s fun to watch OM fans get worked up about it and blame Kiffin, but nothing is going to happen

I'm not going to begrudge anybody their algorithm bubble, but if you think the average Ole Miss fan is worked up about this, you are wrong. Some people are mad at Dabo and Saban for trying to make us look bad, but that is about the extent of it. Twitter is feeding you the content you enjoy.

This might be the dumbest analogy yet.

I will give you 100 Internet dollars if you can give me one example of a CEO leaving his company for a direct competitor and being allowed to stick around for a couple months to finish a project before leaving.

4 months ago, no one outside of Oxford thought he was an elite coach. Most wouldn't have even called him great. People just thought he was entertaining and most had come around to thinking he was likeable.

Then 2 high profile jobs came open and not a single other decent coach in the country was shitty enough to entertain leaving their teams so the media had to spin up this narrative of him being a game changer for someone so they'd have something BIG to talk about.

He's a great coach. He had great chemistry at Ole Miss that he probably won't replicate again. Sucks for us. Sucks worse for him. Sucks most for LSU.

Our best team ever was last year, and your current coach managed to lose 3 games with them, all 3 to inferior programs, 2 where he was a double digit favorite.

The fact that so many idiots think Vegas makes money by being able to magically predict the outcomes of sporting events is really funny to me.

That's not even what they're trying to do.

They make money by roughly predicting what a bunch of dopamine starved dummies with casinos in their pockets are going to think will happen and then using the incoming data to quickly adjust those numbers to the reality of what the dummies think will happen.

Lane made a D3 QB into an Ole Miss god

LOL.

If it were up to Lane and Simmons didn't get hurt, Chambliss would be getting ready to start a career in insurance sales after sitting the bench on a 9-3 team, and no one outside of Gainesville would care one way or another what Lane Kiffin was tweeting about.

If he ends up at LSU or Florida, I think the cycle finally ends when he gets fired in 3 or 4 years.

He'll get kicked back down to G5 and won't get another chance to piss off another P4 program after that.

Dynasties should be encouraged to happen. It sends the signal that they won't interfere with programs just because they're successful. It adds a degree of proof of impartiality that doesn't exist in the new landscape

I know that the whole point of this board is to see who can come up with and post the dumbest nonsense, but you may have jumped the shark here.
