ROLL TIDE ROLL, but Tebo and company look really good. Well we have the consolation, if we loose, of winning the coach’s salary race.
You ain’t walked the walk this year. You have only talked until you play Florida or Alabama.
Sign me up please, thanks
Bama is actually second behind UK in all time SEC wins, but with Gottfried and Pearl as coaches the Vols may reclaim that in a few years.
no TX or OK on that map (ok maybe we're not deep south but we do tend to like our football)
For the last five years, the best college football has been played in the L.A. Coliseum. SC slaughtered the only SEC team with enough balls to play the Trojans. Anyone who schedules the likes of Troy has no business popping off about its superiority.
You can extend it over from Texas up to Nebraska and get a bunch more good ones.
Oklahoma was the reddest of the red states in this last election.
Go Sooners!
Texas OU championship?
Nice pic! If that doesn’t soothe the savage heart after a hard work week, one isn’t human. Thanks!
Eh, not impressed with the SEC. I mean, seriously, lowly Michigan beat SEC powerhouse Florida this calendar year. ;-)
You might be better off not wanting professional football in Cleveland....
It takes time for loyalties to develop. 20-30 years ago, all you had was Miami (who won), Atlanta and New Orleans. Folks turned to college football. They stay with college football...
Thus the drop off of the Academies - sigh
BUT HEY - GO NAVY BEAT ARMY!

Quit reading the LA Times. Troy is a sleeper that may surprise you.
No question about it, but in order to earn a gentlmen's C, you still have to get in and even as a legatee, that's not going to happen with the average SAT scores and high school GPA of a University of Alabama football player.
I hope they both lose.

....SEC football was very good 50 years ago as noted....I know,I lived in Atlanta in the early 60s when Ga Tech was in the SEC....the difference between then and now is the addition of the black athlete who did not play back then because of segregation....those ball players went to places like Grambling and Florida A&M that had excellant programs BTW....when elite black athletes started going to places like Alabama things skyrocketed in a hurry.
And I can count the number of people who know of Adolph Rupp on one hand.
