I am just in complete awe of what Lofton overcame and went through. He is a truly remarkable young man.

I would be lying if I said I was not. It's a close matchup. I still have faith the Vols will win, but I'm rife with anxiety.

They have open practices? Do they still have any closed practices? They were mostly closed when I worked the tournament in New Orleans in 1998. I almost had to throw Bonnie Bernstein out and revoke her press credentials because she wanted to cut across to the CBS truck during Kansas's closed...

Vandy played well enough to earn the win, and I'm not saying the officiating favored them or not, but the number of fouls was so bad that the game was just plain unenjoyable regardless of the outcome. It had no flow. My wife quit watching and went to bed she got so frustrated. I don't mind a...

Perrilloux is a thug, pure and simple. The only reason he got out of trouble for the bar fight is that the owner of the Chimes is a huge LSU booster, and they threw some back-up player under the bus for a fight that the LSU players started with some bouncers while in the bar with their...

Thanks for the comments. I must say, as Tulane alum, you are getting a great coach in Rich Rodriguez. Our former AD was incredibly naive not to offer him the HC position when Tommy Bowden split. I'm sure he'd have eventually left for a bigger program, but at least Tulane would have been in...

I don't want to disparage Georgia for a fine season, but I really didn't see anything that truly distinguished them this year. The Florida win as quite impressive, but the Tennessee loss was the polar opposite. I think the Sugar Bowl said more about Hawaii than it did about Georgia. At any...

It was 7-2. I expected Arkansas was overmatched and was going to get clobbered by Missouri, but the Michigan win over Florida was a bit unexpected. Overall, I think the SEC performed exceedingly well in bowls this year.

With the Saints in 2000 and 2001 as QB coach. Do you realize that he actually turned Aaron Brooks into a capable NFL QB for those two years? That's pretty amazing. I guess he was the only guy who knew how to keep him from throwing off his back leg...

Yeah, I remember now: the pig she was chasing was "Rocky Top," but the pig she had in her arm was "Peyton."

I think the pig's name was "Peyton." I thought it was amusing, and for all I know that woman with the pig might be a distant relative of mine. The "trailer park tornado" comment was more of an insult, IMHO.

Hill padded his average with a few long runs. Overall, Wisconsin got 4.7 yards per carry, double what Tennessee did on the ground at 2.3. I thought the defense played well considering how much time they spent on the field in the second half when the offense stalled out. But, I do agree that...

Mike Martz is unbalanced. I think Mike Martz may one day snap and bludgeon someone with his headset.

Georgia looked outstanding last night, though they conducted themselves in a rather classless manner, I thought. They are a young team and have been improving over the course of the year. I'm sure a number of preseason polls will have the Dawgs as favorites for not just the SEC East, but the...

Well, as long as we don't put Ohio State on the schedule...
