Go to bat for Fulky, for one. Payne is gonna play this weekend while Fulky stays home and nurses a broken face, and we’re apparently not going to say one word.

Also, not saying DW is going fail here, or anything. He just hasn’t been the super AD he was billed to be when we hired him, SO FAR. I’m still confident things will improve under his leadership.

Translation: he hasn't done what I want him to do so I'm not impressed.

No hate. Singling any poster out is stupid, unless it's Catbone. Kidding Bone. De1 doesnt do himself any favors by how he talks to others, jmho.

It’s all semantics with De1. Just have to know his language.

Agree what’s the issue here? The elbow was awful and we are now most likely down a man in the tourney but what should we be pushing for here? Soft society wanting to press charges on the kid? A suspension? I’m confused.

Someone should’ve sent Tre Mann’s azz into the stands with a forearm shiver. Should’ve jacked him up.

CFB on reddit is called the Internet's Tailgate. It’s a more friendly environment than secrant and of course with well over a million subscribers and an untold number of lurkers (like me) it’s I assume the largest CFB forum in the country. Anyway, it’s not that different from VolNation but sometimes they have some interesting discussion threads. Tonight I was reading a thread called “What’s wrong with Nebraska?” I thought it was a good discussion and we’ve had the same discussion in this very thread I guess maybe a month or two back.

So a lot of fans of college football in general are pulling for the return to prominence of some down and out blue bloods. Nebraska was the main topic in this particular thread but there were fans who thought that Michigan and Tennessee weren’t that far from getting back to relevance. The discussion centered around the dysfunction that some programs go through due to I guess a sort of lack of competence in the administrations and meddling by some rather rich boosters. Alabama’s struggles before they landed Saban was one of the prime examples. Anyway, I enjoyed reading the thread but there was one fan, I don’t know which school he/she is from, but they had a comment I thought said a lot about how we are still viewed by some of CFB's most engaged fans. jmo.

I dont know if just the goalposts end up in the river the day that happens. The whole damn stadium might though. Especially if its against a good Saban Bama team.

In 1982 I was in church the Sunday after TSIO in Boston, Ma. I hadn't been paying all that much attention to CFB that year. Anyway, there's well over a thousand people in the pews and the guy at the pulpit is going through the announcements and he drops this nugget, "Tennessee beat #2 Alabama in football yesterday, 35-28". In my entire life I have never seen so much cheering in a Church of Christ.

The day we beat SCAR under Butch when we they were ranked high, I had to work a large fundraiser that night and when the speaker got up to the mic first thing he said was How About the Vols to a pretty large cheer to the crowd.
