When you start disqualifying players for it it’s weak.

Their receivers don’t want any part of the middle of the field.

For some fucking reason I like Frost. I don’t know why, but I think the guy is eventually going to turn them around.

aggy vs. Auburn - game thread
This Washington hack announcer sure is trying to French up the fact that in the SEC even when you lose you win. It has been to be difficult to spew that company line, day after day to collect a check.

Call came in from Birmingham. Bama needs a 8 win team on the schedule.

Just another example of the worlds best defenses somehow seem to struggle against good QB play....shocking I tell you. Though that league has damn good teams, they have shit for passing attacks. It’s all a fraud.

ESPN apologizes for corrupt James Carville calling the SEC commish corrupt on Gameday
Hell, it isn’t like it’s a secret. Just that no one with the ability to do anything about it has the balls to call them on it.

Remember when a certain fan base laughed at Auburn for the Gus hire? Well Auburn now you know why.

Tell me about ou
God I hope your being sarcastic? The guy has lost three games total since his hire. One of which was in the playoffs against “a super duper powerhouse we play the best defense in the world SEC team” in Georgia. Not only did they hang +30 points on that defense, they pretty much stopped the dick munches on ESPN from making those statements about Big12 teams in general. That incompetent Stoops gets ONE stop in that Georgia game, ONE, and it’s ou, not Georgia playing Alabama. Who by the way was probably a better match up. Considering that over the last 20 years ou has a better record against Alabama then Georgia, and has played them almost as many times (you got to love that SEC scheduling). Then he has a loss against us, by 3 on a last second field goal. A game that I will always argue is the most competitive rivalry game of all. Simply because how many times the favorite has been beaten. Only last years ISU game stands out. But again. One tends to look more at Stoops competence then Riley’s role. Had ou been able to get a Texas like effort from their guys that day they don’t lose that game. So overall nothing could be farther from the truth in comparing Riley to fucking Mac version I. Yes, as devils advocate you can accurately call out the fact those are Bob’s players. But you can’t bitch about what he has done with them. But bringing in Ruffin, a guy who will have a far better relationship with those players suggests they will get better. Their game today, at night, National TV, on the road, will pretty much tell us if they have improved under Ruffin. If they go to Lubbock and cover the spread (it’s at -14.5 as I write this) they should win out and make the playoffs. If not it won’t matter to us as we will probably play Moonshine Madness in the CG. Which I believe is a better match up. Beating WV twice seems a little more realistic then beating ou twice.

That is SEC speak that they had to pay Alabama.

UCF vs Temple
One other thing. The NCAA is a 501(c)(3) organization. Which means they get to seal their books. Imagine what one would find if those ever became public. There are NCAA people from the old SMU days who’s fear was not killing SMU football. It was that the action would give SMU lawyers a toehold at forcing open the NCAA financial records. As at that time there were a number of supposed “loans” that were rumored to have been made.

UCF vs Temple
What are laughing at? In the 90’s the NCAA was hammered for $54 million on those very grounds when they tried to cap salaries. What, you thought inflation brought about the absurd amount of money a D1 coach can earn? Fuck no, the NCAA didn’t want an arms race. The NCAA isnt dumb. They knew full well that if you pay a coach $10 million. Someone is going to ask why? And more importantly, how? Factor in that the most expensive element of any business is it’s workforce. And you get the O’Bannon case. One where a current players likeness shows up on a video game and he doesn’t receive any compensation, but the university does. Then again in 2013 this very issue again pops up on the hill. And again the Sherman Anti-Trust is waved like a Sabre. Fortunately for the NCAA, it was brought up during a lame duck Congress. A shot over the bow if you will. But don’t think for a second that the new transfer rules were out of the goodness of the NCAA’s heart. It is because they hear the dogs. And they will either eventually reform, of be replaced by a governing body. The money, and how to get a piece of it is what everyone is looking at.

Rodney Anderson going pro
Shiiit, ou dodged a bullet losing Bomar, and Bell was nothing more then a very short but effective stopgap. Not exactly a accurate evaluation of just how well some really, really average QB’s have been made successful in a system that had continuity. They also are working on their 4th Heisman campaign under that system. Hate em for sure. But that’s a track record any team would enjoy.

Oak @ SF -- TNF
Meh, such is the nature of non-guaranteed contracts. The minimum is $450 a year, so Mullens got a little something, something in his stocking. On the other hand. You can pull a Flaco. Where you get compensated for what you have done, not what you will continue to do. He had a run of four exceptionally good games and received a $200 million contract because the Ravens brain trust refused to believe it an anomaly..

No surprise. But that makes two high profile players who have been injured and declared (Bosa the other). I’m going to guess we will see more and more check out as we get closer to bowl season for this very reason.

Apparently this is the team that everybody wants to play for. I’m guessing it’s all the guys who don’t have contracts?
