Re: Great googly moogly: Thoughts on Vandy's SEC WIN over Florida

I still resent having to miss the 14-14 tie in 1968 because I had to take a language proficiency exam that could not be rescheduled. I finished the test quickly but had to sit there for the duration.

SC Hangs 63 on UtK

Down goes the great aarnge pretender. Instead of checkerboarding the Bank, we may see 40,000+ fans enter the witness protection program.

At least they let us stay on the field while they gave UF an extra play.

Auburn has a library?

Re: I’m happy for Clark..

I needed to hear the announcers say, "Vanderbilt outplayed Kentucky from the get-go." And they said it.

The guy has single-handedly eaten Vandy alive the last three seasons.
Maybe we finally hold him under 100.

I'd give my QB one of those offshore numbers, where the caller gets charged a buck or two.

Re: UtK makes history

If the SEC champion is not in the playoffs, it would be a good argument (one of many) for doing away with the conference championship game.

Re: Tennessean to rename forthcoming book about Vols' 2022 season (?)

It was the way UtK lost that did them in. Their superhuman offense looked impotent from the get-go. Maybe they'll end up with a rematch against Alabama in some non-playoff bowl.

Re: Weirdly maddening

At most SEC schools, the "conversation" would be about the perils of saying what you think on social media. At Vanderbilt, it should be about why you hired somebody who endorses antisemitic views -- was "character" not something you thought was worth looking into? -- and why he i...

Re: Thoughts on Vandy's loss to South Carolina

The 52-yard run for a TD on third-and-one was the ultimate indictment of Vandy's defensive coaching. No one ever got close enough for a missed tackle.

Re: Positivity

Roanoke, you are spot-on, as usual. I would just add that I like the way the team doesn't seem to quit. Plus the fact that last night's turnover party was the rare exception, not the rule.

UtK makes history

The Viles found a way to lose the SEC East Championship, the SEC crown, and probably any hope of a shot at the national championship, all on the same day. A good outing for the champions of life. It was a mercy killing in Athens as Kirby chose to let up on the gas after intermission. Everybody in Am...

Re: Asst coach Dan Jackson (DBs) inserts himself into the Kanye West mess on social media

Saying somebody should no longer be welcome to set foot on your campus, much less represent your university at public events, can't (and shouldn't) be compared to stoning him to death. And there is a vast difference between saying "stupid" things on social media and endorsing antisemitic b...
