SEC Open Thread

[IRISHDODGER]

Hmmm 🤔

The NCAA sess this as a runaway train but they’re the ones who sat on their hands while the ground shifted beneath them. No chance they win.

Non-SEC coaches are no different than non-SEC fans. They know NIL leveled the playing ground

How many minutes did he coach at ND?

 

[Huntr]

About 30 seconds.

Having a stick of butter in your artery makes you do stuff, like take time off for life saving surgery.

Not sure if this is a smart move to reinvigorate the program and excite the fans, or a bad case of putting lipstick on a pig. Auburn hasn't had a winning season since 2019 and are on their 3rd or 4th coach since then, plus they're still paying some major buyout money. Not sure what justifies this big of an upgrade.

Don’t know if my Irish friends know this but Auburn delegates went to South Bend and toured your stadium and facilities to come up with a lot of their renovation plans.

Gutsy 4th down calls vs Auburn pay off...

I'm not wild about this. Not really upset either, but...

I think we're going to be a perpetual 9-3 or 10-2 sort of team under him. Playoffs most years, but probably never a CG appearance let alone a title. I think we're looking at being good to very good, but never great under him. That's not the standard we expect. We understand that nobody is going to be Saban, but just good isn't going to be good enough.

Well said… exactly how I feel!

Does DeBoer have a single good win yet? Maybe at home against UGA a few times.

Alabama’s BK.

Following a legend is never a good idea.

If losing the game vs UGA that decided which SEC team is the best doesn’t count, then beating them in a regular season game shouldn’t count either.
