seriously, if those backwoods bastards ever have any real success, they'll quickly climb the list of most intolerable SEC fans. Them damn cowbells are almost as annoying as hearing Rocky Top 2,343,545,643,134,772 times before the half.

rumour has it that VaTech fans do the same thing with their keys.
Still unconfirmed as they were never "in the game" against us last year, so there were no key plays.

Absolutely. I can deal with the drunk and obnoxious crew at LSU, Bama, UF, if only because their women are easy on the eyes.
When you get out in Starksville or Fayetteville, Arkansas.....shoot.
We're talking slim pickins' as far as female talent is concerned.

Dan Mullen's radical idea to change college football
Dan Mullen has an idea that could radically change college football.
The concept is fairly simple: Any player above the NCAA's new core grade-point-average requirement should get five years of eligibility instead of the standard four.
Sound crazy? Let the Mississippi State coach explain.
"You might take a freshman and they are being punished for having better grades. They might be forced to play even though they needed a redshirt year," Mullen says. "One of the thoughts I had was there's a mandatory academic redshirt year for a certain group of people...well, if you are above that new standard you should get five years of eligibility. Why punish someone who might be forced to have to play?
"Instead of punishing guys for doing bad, why not reward guys for doing good?"
Mullen readily admits that his idea has never gotten traction at any SEC or coaches meeting. He's a man on an island on this one.
His idea is to counteract the NCAA's requirement, set to go into effect August 2016, which requires prospective student-athletes to have a minimum GPA of 2.3. If the recruits can't hit that 2.3 GPA figure but are above the old 2.0 scale, they'd be forced to take an academic redshirt year. The NCAA also raised its sliding scale based on GPA and SAT/ACT scores, and now requires recruits to have completed 10 of their 16 core classes before their senior year.

I'm guessing those end-zone seats will be packed at 8:00 pm on Sep 7th...
Note the sparsely populated end-zone seats.

Wolverine is largest member of weasel family
Is it time to update this coach's thread? He's certainly embraced the full Florida Man concept now that he's Florida's head coach. Even showed up dressed as Darth Vader for the post-brawl press conference.
