SEC football talk, news and discussion.

If you’re a SEC fan – or even a college football fan – you’re probably aware of the situation at LSU. The Tigers lost at LSU, nearly lost to Mississippi State, should-have-beaten-but-somehow-lost to Auburn, and got absolutely destroyed by Kentucky. If Ed Orgeron had a hot seat after the UCLA game, the Kentucky game made his nonk chauz as hot as the seventh corridor of hell. But should he be fired? Here’s why he SHOULD keep his job, despite LSU’s 3-3 record. Quarterbacks, quarterbacks, quarterbacks. Myles Brennan was meant to be Joe Burrow’s heir, and the poor bastard got injured after only 3 games in 2020, and then got injured for the 2021 season. Max Johnson was never going to start in 2021, let

Read moreA friend of mine texted me today. He was FUMING. “Can you believe that they’ve put Georgia vs Arkansas at frickin’ 11am?’ We live in the Houston area, so 11am kick-offs aren’t the greatest time for our wake-ups or our livers, but we stride on. So I looked and behold: No.2 Georgia will play No.8 Arkansas under the bright sunlight, instead of what the fans of the SEC probably wanted more – a night game, with Sanford Stadium going off the chain. “They should have waited until after the Texas A&M – Arkansas game to make that call,” he said. Instead, ESPN made the call on September 20th. What was a little galling for Georgia fans – and the rest

Read moreWhen the refs steal the a lot of the game’s limelight, you know that the reffing was terrible. And in the Mississippi State vs Memphis Penn State vs Auburn clashes, they were beyond terrible. No, stupid press releases about how these dumbf**ks screwed up the call might make the SEC feel better, but these guys should be suspended. I mean, they are costing coaches their potential livelihoods here! Apart from that – and that’s like saying: “Apart from that Mrs Lincoln, how was the play?” – here’s our SEC rankings. Georgia (3-0): The Dawgs look unbeatable at the moment. Sure, their secondary gave up 2 or 3 big plays to South Carolina, but the strength was meant to be the

After the relative dross of SEC games last week, Week 3 of the season – on paper anyway – is a beautiful mixture of in-house SEC clashes, and some ‘dope’ out-of-conference clashes, which are the filling of some pretty dry bread that you can avoid if you take it away. For a lot of people looking at the season early, it was all going to be about Alabama vs Florida in The Swamp, with a packed Gainseville crowd looking for blood. There was going to be a new Alabama after the NFL had once again decimated the team, and Dan Mullen was going to pull of miracles? Oh, and then we saw what Alabama could do, and dear Lord it’s
Read moreAlthough their fans will continue to be made fun of because of the above pic, last year was a turnaround for the Arkansas Razorbacks faithful. After the team installed Sam Pittman as its new coach and Barry Odom as defensive coordinator, the Pig Troupe went an encouraging 3-7 last year, and they were only completely blown out by the uberoffenses of Alabama (52-3) and Florida (63-5). They pulled off a great upset at Ole Miss, and had wins over Mississippi State and Tennessee, and they lost three games by under 5 points. This was a long way from the awfulness of Chad Morris, who was totally out of his depth in Fayetteville. So what will 2021 have in store for

If I’m an Auburn fan, I wouldn’t understand why my team didn’t even bother interviewing Tony Elliott. Tony Elliott has been in charge of one of the biggest, brightest offenses in college football for 2015-2019, and has coached NFL star in Deshaun Watson, and the next NFL star in Trevor Lawrence. He’s been a master – and has been prettily paid for it by one of college football’s most elite programs. It’s easy to see why Elliott wasn’t even interviewed. The excuse from Greene (who by the way, is African-American) will be that he didn’t bother interviewing anybody, instead of going straight for Boise State’s Brian Harsin – a move which pissed off the already-crazed Auburn booster base. But
