Whats hard to comprehend is that if Duke does beat you guys, they have a legitimate shot at playing in the ACC title game.

after reading about all the ND injuries theres no way I would ever schedule a triple option team.
How is that shit legal.
How is that shit legal.
cut block out of nowhere, bucknuticus tears his knees, ankles, and funny bone.
Unfortunately we can't get out of our legal obligation to play one of these shitty teams every year.
BYU had to play Air Force every year for a long, long time. Every time they'd play, I knew that BYU would win, but the only question was how many injuries we would have to the defense.
Guys, stop worrying about Notre Dame. BYU has got this.
Could still be in it, if Auburn beats Alabama, but loses to say, UGA. 3 or 4 way tie.
But, I see a 4 loss season for LSU. Don't see them beating A&M, unless their offense wakes back up.
I never thought I'd be worried about Auburn this year, but I am.
I don't really think Auburn is that great. They are a product of the easiest schedule in the SEC. I wouldn't be surprised if we won this week and we are terrible (although I guess somewhat borderline below average at home).
Edit: Apparently Vegas agrees with me as they are only +7.

Pretty sure you can make one of these for any team in the SEC not named Kentucky, Vandy, or South Carolina at this point.
edit: Although I guess Auburn is different because of the fact that they are a rotating cross division and we have lost both times the last couple rotations (and SEC championship games).
I'd love to agree with you as I hate Auburn almost as much as Florida, but Auburn has quietly beaten Texas A&M and Ole Miss, who was somehow ranked at the time. They're ranked #9 now, so if Tennessee or Georgia were to beat them, that'd be a pretty big upset. Tennessee has them at Neyland, but UGA has to play them in Auburn. They won't end the season where they are now. Their last 3 games are Tennessee, UGA, and Bama. At least one loss there, maybe 2.
Taken from another message board, right now we are -
105th in red zone TD conversion.
111th in turnover margin.
119th in penalties.
That about sums up where Tech is right now. Even with the regression of the run D these past few games if we could have been good enough in these three areas to even be in the top 60 or 70 we'd likely still be undefeated right now.
Also why I won't be surprised with any combination of wins and losses in the 3 games we have left.
If you want your offense to wake up, A&M this season is a good team to be playing against.

Ole Miss isn't really all that good, and they probably wouldn't have beaten A&M if they hadn't injured Manziel.
Depending on Georgia's injury situation I could see Auburn losing all their remaining games with Tennessee being the biggest question mark.
The good news for Georgia is that half of Auburn's team will probably suffer knee injuries this weekend.
The A&M point may be fair, and Ole Miss isn't great either, but they did beat LSU. Auburn is actually a pretty good team. Leading the league in rushing offense. #3 in total offense.
Basically.
Florida is now #13 in the conference scoring offense, behind Kentucky. They are #14 in the conference in total offense. Ouch.

NW unis vs Michigan in 2 weeks, pretty slick

So what you're telling me is that rooting for NW in that game is rooting for America, right?

Holy shit I did not realize that Florida was in such danger of not becoming bowl eligibility this year. They need 2 more wins and their remaining schedule is Vandy, South Carolina, Georgia Southern, and FSU. Only one of those is pretty much guaranteed. If they don't beat Vandy this week, the Gatas might not be going bowling. This would snap their 22 game appearance streak, which is currently the second longest active streak (behind FSU at #1 with 31, already assured to be 32 as the Noles are bowl eligible).
And FSU is only 5 bowl appearances away from reaching the #1 all time bowl appearance streak. Nebraska holds the current record of 35 with Michigan in second at 33, and FSU in third at 31.
Anyway, what I really came here to post was a link to this photoset detailing all the work that went in to the GameDay sign my friends and I made. If you watched the last hour of GameDay you probably saw us behind Fowler's head. We built a big ass sign of FSU's Reggie Northrup with moving arms so he could do the robot.
Check out the photo set at www.flickr.com/photos/strikerobi/sets/72157637310433586/. It includes video of the sign in action on TV.

That sign is amazing. Someone more technologically proficient than I needs to make a gif of that.

I hate playing the academies just because of injuries and they have to play really dirty to even compete. Notre Dame will always play Navy. ND almost went under during WW2 and basically begged Navy to establish a Naval Officer training program there in exchange for playing ND every year in football.
So the EDSBS guys aren't fans of Muschamp

He's been trashing him on Twitter and the site since the LSU game, I think. Not that I disagree with his assessments.

Not surprised. Aren't they both (Spencer Hall and Jason Kirk) UF alums? Of course they would hate Muschamp.

I'm so glad we don't have a legit in-state rival.

But but but, UC fans say we are!
I'm pretty sure a lot of people didn't really like Muschamp, but were willing to give him a chance after an 11-1 regular season (that required a late blocked punt against freaking Louisiana-Lafayette). This season has been awful. I mean, his overall record is inline with Ron Zook's record here.
bucknuticus
Member
Except Zooker had a better 3 year SEC record
Spencer is, Jason from what I can tell is generally an "anything in driving distance from Atlanta" fan.
Spencer Hall has been pretty vocal about the UF offense and Muschamp's fit at UF his entire tenure. His point has been that about 99.9% of UF fan base were not fans pre Spurrier and because of that like inventive or high scoring offenses cause that is pretty much all they know.
Me too ... Oh wait.
The Most up to date Florida pic I've seen.
Would explain the historical good fortunes for LSU, Ohio State, and Nebraska. Lucked out that they sucked out all the life of potential in state rivals, before they developed.
You're not wrong about that.
Next coach will be an offensive minded guy. Because that's the way these things go. Defensive minded guy comes in and fails, fanbase wants an offensive minded guy.
This loops pretty well. Did it with gifcam so it isn't great but not too bad!
Also, Dan Sileo was fired over the FSU bounty tweets: http://www.tomahawknation.com/2013/11/4/5065494/dan-sileo-fired-bounty-florida-state-miami-freeman
Including wins against a top 5 UGA team and a Nick Saban NC winning LSU team.
I think the best SEC team Muschamp has beaten was a 9-3 LSU team last year? Maybe USCe was better? I dunno.
I really do think last year we just severely over achieved. A lot of lucky bounces, etc. Getting owned by Louisville in the Sugar Bowl basically confirms that.
I'm perfectly fine with having a defense guy being the head coach. As long as he doesn't have a bullshit offensive philosophy.
I want Dan Quinn to come back and be our next head coach.

HAHA! This gif rules. Thanks dude.

I previously mentioned that Tech was going after a JUCO DT named Clinkscales. Looks like he may have made a little bit of news lately. Are Cincinnati coaches telling recruits they're heading to the Big XII?
A few things about this -
1. Probably a bogus rumor to begin with (especially since anything happening by next season is very unlikely IMO) but I don't think I like the addition of Cincinnati without the added inclusion of some bigger fish, though it would help bridge the huge gap in geography between WVU and everybody else. I've been hoping the next round of additions would all be in one general area (during the last round of rumors, for instance, east coast with Clemson and FSU and whoever, or east midwest-ish with Cincinnati and Louisville and whoever, etc.) to make the geography a little better with WVU.
2. In the short term at least I think it would be hilarious for Tuberville to get dragged back into the conference after running away with his tail between his legs a year ago complaining about how hard it was to play defense in this league.
3. What are the odds of a guy named Clinkscales being recruited to a school with a coach named Clinkscales?
