Re: Cause of Awful Sportsmanship across NCAAFB?

This whole society , not just athletes, has become driven by some macho ego thing. The way we all have fawned over athletes has made it worse for that group. Instead of making them ride the pine , coaches try to reason with them or even praise overwrought ( is that a word) swagger. All sense of dig...

Re: Rare situation when bad ref calls BENEFITED Vanderbilt

The foul on the head was clearly incidental. On a text thread with 5 other college ball fans. None thought that should have been anything other than common foul. He meant to foul him, but not to clock him across the forehead.

Re: watching the replay

I would never speak for a coach, but if we are playing favorites, my loyalty would be to my first signee and the player that followed me from my previous job than to someone that was already here. He never scouted or recruited JQ. And I could be dead wrong too. This is where you and I disagree. I w...

Re: watching the replay

I find it hard to believe that JQ Roberts isn't one of the top 10 players on this team. The kid is an absurd athlete, and he is big. We are short on big guys. He can also shoot the 3. I'm having trouble understanding why he isn't playing more. I have to think we will need him in conference, particul...

Re: Trick play

One constant in the SEC One constant in the SEC is that if you've never seen a certain obscure penalty called or haven't seen it called in a long time? You can count on them calling it on Vanderbilt. Works every time. Chop block downfield? We probably lead the league in that penalty being called on...

Re: This is not me complaining, but...

We’ll never know. I still think some of you aren’t factoring in how Texas would likely play. I mean yes, could they have taken a shot deep? Sure. But most of their plays would have been designed to keep the clock running. Runs. Short passes. And depending on when (and if) we got it back, we wouldn’t...

Re: This is not me complaining, but...

If we're on the 50 or better, I'm going for it and not even thinking about it. It just felt like we were too deep. We miss it and they're 10 yds or so from FG range (can't remember the exact yard lines). Maybe they were already in FG range. I do remember feeling shock that we were going for it and t...

This is not me complaining, but...

I've been critical of Clark going too much by the book. So I admire his decision to go for it on 4th at the end of the game. That said it was the wrong decision. I thought it then, and obviously, I think it now. One-score game. With a little more than 5 minutes to go. We were simply too deep in our ...

Tickets...

I realize I'm one of probably thousands of people looking, but if someone knows of some tix, could you let me know via private message. I'm certainly willing to pay but would rather not pay top of the market. (ie. $175 for row 73 of Section V).

VANDY v. TEXAS

Is anyone using this board any more? If so, and you have some Texas tix available, please let me know. Super interested. Willing to pay, but would rather not pay top of the market.
