Well, if we can afford to pay for Lane and his dad, maybe we could kick in a little extra to get her to shake her pom-poms.

I understand his dad from Tampa Bay may be coming in also.

Getting Monte Kiffin to go would be a far bigger hire than Lane himself. The guy is a coaching legend and genius. He had some of the greatest defenses in Collge history when he was a DC at Nebraska(his defense was the cornerstone of Nebraskas 1971 MNC, it was called the immoveable force and is still talked about to this day). He will instill Tampa 2, 3 and still move in some 4-3, 3-4 to fit the needs. Plus his very legendary status will draw top defensive recruits to Tennessee like flys to stink. Lane on the other hand IMO is still an unknown commodity IMO, he was never a full OC at USC and well his results spoke for themselves at Oakland, with or without Gollum’s fascist rule.

Agreed. I think the jury's still out on Lane. Like one talking head said, "Heck, Barney Fife could recruit blue chippers to USC".

I'll say this for him, though, his wife is really hot.

The ACC was 2-1 against the SEC this weekend in those rivalry games. GT and Clemson played really well. FSU...well, we just ran into this year’s best college football team, IMO.

3-1 if you count Wake over Vandy.

BTW, just announced Clemson Vs. Nebraska in the Gator Bowl. Once again, our loyal fan following gets us a better bowl than we deserve.

I'll take it.

PS - Oh, and Lane Kiffin's wife is smoking. Even at 8-mos preggers. That is all.

Florida is playing the best ball in the country right now. I think they are going to dismantle the Tide on Saturday....

I would like to see that, but I that you are wrong.

Alabama plays Big Boy defense - Saban is a master at preparing for these types of games. He will also chew the clock. Mount Cody will command a triple team by the interior OL, preventing those combo-blocks UF loves so much that free up the 2nd level.

Bammers by 10.

3-1? The ACC beat the SEC 3-1? Wow, who’da thunkit?

Nice bowl game there, Palms...and you are dead right about Mrs. Kiffin. WHEW!

I have to disagree with you, Palms. As much as I hate to say it, the best football team in all of College is UF. If they play two more games the way they have been, they’ll be Nat’l Champs. I just don’t see Bama or OU beating them.

But that’s why they play the games, isn’t it?

I'm withholding judgment on UF till after this weekend. If Saban has success slowing them down and still manages to lose this one, I could see Texas beating them - Muschamp's a genius.

In no way will Oklahoma beat UF, however.

After the arrest of the three Vols for attempted armed robbery, UT redesigned their helmet.
