Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

I could tell it was a lashout, Sville, no problems, especially on the subject at hand.

In simple terms, Saban is easily the coach least likely to succeed at getting his program in trouble.
But the NCAA is a cesspool, especially at the top, and we just happen to pull for the top two teams.
As a certified HOMER, I see LSU through rose-colored glasses, much as you do the Tide. I didn't even
know they had gotten in trouble at the start of the year for over signing players. I had to read about
that one yesterday as I tried ti find out how Miles and Arkansas went together, haha. Over-signing is
not fair to the kids.

And what is it with these squirrels today?? I can't remember them eating green pecans when I was a kid? NEVER.
Now unless I brutally enforce a no fly zone in my back yard with my new Beaman break-barrel pellet gun with scope,
89 bucks at wahlmart, I end up with no nuts for the 7th year in a row. Not to mention a patio COVERED in broken up
green pecans. As it is the damage they do while I am at work alone means that I'll be lucky to have a dozen ripe pecans
this year. But I have been MERCILESS!! I quit skinning them and took to putting them in a ziplock bag in the
freezer and tossing them on trash day. Smoked a few, though, not bad.
This new pellet gun is brutally accurate, hehe. But I have two trees basically stripped again.

Thank goodness for the cocktail party, or I'd have nothing to do all weekend.
I am gonna have to go UGA, cause while I am a sometimes Bama fan, I am a NO-
times Florida fan. I know my brothers in and out of FL have florgiven me for that
already, so it's OK. Just need something to watch. Or it's back to Nashville to drink
with Bill. BUT I DO wish FL the best on the re-building.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

The squirrels have usually waited until the day before I look for the pecans to fall, and then they devastate my crop overnight. This year, the crows are assisting them by stripping the green pecans, tearing thru the husks, and eating the meat before it's even ready. I'm going to hang the next crow I kill in one of my pecan trees! That should give them something to think about!!!!

This year will be the fifth in a row I've failed to get any before the animals! I have 6 acres full of other trees, and the ground is littered with acorns and hickory nuts this year. Apparently they would rather run across my yard in the open and eat pecans!!! And my dog just lays there and watches the show. Grrrrrrrrrrr!!

Roll Tide Roll. BTW, I'd love to see Boise State play either of us!! That would be a killin' worth seeing!!

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

My uncle used to epoxy ripe nuts to the picnic table and that would keep them so occupied that they
had little time to play in the trees. I have a couple of dogs that keep them in the trees, so if they drop a nut,
they just grab another. And they drop em all the time.

Football.

We're coming to get you.....:su

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

Are you speaking as a squirrel or a Bama fan? (see posts 223+225)

As to the Big Game, I need to warn you Bama fans, Say what you want around your friends, but lay your MONEY
down on the Tigers. This is as close to a push as I have ever seen, but the Tigers are going to come out on top.

I have been a Tiger fan since I was a kid, and never in their history have people taken them seriously enough,
and until they are hit in the face with a big purple rubber dildo, they just won't accept the truth. This is true
about a lot of teams, but keep the faces of Oregon and WVU fans in mind as you place your bets. I think all of
Bama's opponents fans realized they had no chance, but not so with the Tigers. They show up in their white-out
or gold-out gear, shake their pom-poms and bounce to the techno stadium groover songs. But until they get
smacked in the mouth a couple of times, over and over again, they just don't GET the Tigers. NO, my friend,
we are coming for YOU.......;)

Don't miss this chance to make some money off your bookie.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

Talk about a toss up - I'm taking Florida as the dog. Hate UGA and the Gators. It's like choosing between poison ivy and chiggers.

Then there's the Cocks and the Vols. Like picking a lady to dance at the old folks home...

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

I at least have a bit of fun with USC-UT today. I like the cocktail party, too, This is rough when your team is idle.
Hard to say if one or both teams will be affected by it next week. I NEED ENTERTAINMENT THIS WEEKEND! I am
not even smoking meat this weekend cause I am SO FAT! I am trying to take every indulgence off the table and
work through this. Man I miss my cigarettes!!!

I am gonna go with Chiggers this weekend, believe it or not. Not just Lattimore being out, but D. Dooley is desparate.
(Bet LSU while you can.) ;)

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

SC 24 TN 10

Lattimore is out, but they do have some depth left on the running game with Brandon Wilds. Plus, without Lattimore, TN will not be stacking the box so hard. Hopefully, we'll see some more of the air game.

Another spot to watch closely is SC's Clowney vs TN's Worley. Clowney went to South Pointe High and Worley went to Northwester (my AlmaMater). They are cross town rivals and had a HUGE game last year to determine who goes to state. Northwester won. Clowney will be looking for some revenge. I am seeing a big game for him today.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

I hope I get to see it tonight on CBS...if not I guess I miss it....lemme check the schedules of both teams...
Damn...it's on the douche.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

Am I the only one that HATES this 'new' style of celebration that everyone seems to have to do now where they
risk broken ankles everytime they go up??
It's not going away, people jump up and bump in mid-air. You'd think the coaches would put a stop to it, it's very
dangerous. Land wrong, land on the other guy's foot or calf or ankle....It's the equivalent of playing off-
season touch football....oops, I broke my tibia, sorry coach.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

Well, we knew Richt was awful. It now appears that Muschamp was woefully unprepared for a job of this magnitude. That was just an abomination of a game.

And yes, Brad, Bama is gonna whip that ass for your beloved Tigers. Book it.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

I am not so sure he is over-matched, I think there has been so little continuity and a lack of a decent break,
he is just stuck in a bad cycle right now. I think he is gonna get it together. Of course, not in 2011, lol. He is in
EXACTLY the same sitcho as Derek Dooley, I think.

Bama loses....

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

Gators gave that one away.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

Clemson looked horrid last night against Ga Tech :td :td

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

I was shocked to see Brantley in the game, I thought that was gonna be the nail in UGA's coffin.
I am guessing that's why he HAD TO play, to make sure you didn't lose the cocktail party game.
But it didn't work out that way. Personally I would have stayed with the backup guy that
had two or three games under his belt. But ehhh, it happened.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

I think it is more of a case of playing a team that has a defense.

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

I was pulling hard for them. GA looks a lot better than 5 weeks ago..

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2011
 

That's the damn truth!
