Lebby has 2 worse losses than Khakis missing a FG vs. USA

[Tater]

It took Mullen over 7 years to amass a loss that bad. It took Huepel's fatter, dumber clone to do it in less than two years.

[Quaoarsking]

Mullen only had 1 bad loss in 9 years here, and even that was primarily due to bad luck rather than his personal coaching decisions.

Saying losing to UF on the road is a worse loss than losing to USA at home is insanity. What is the other loss?

[Turfdawg67]

Excuse me... that's khaki "shorts" to you.

[HoopsDawg]

Thank you Lebby! All I wanted this year was competitive games and you have delivered. I?m sorry about our dumb ass fans.

I would assume getting blown out at home by Toledo?

One "embarrassing" loss maybe... and so does Lebby. Mullen had a few head scratchers too...

• ⁠2016 Kentucky (No. 60 in SRS)
• ⁠2009 Houston (No. 48 in SRS)
• ⁠2011 Auburn (No. 46 in SRS)
• ⁠2016 Arkansas (No. 46 in SRS)

But normally he'd beat his 4 OOC opponents (Troy, La Tech, Alcorn State, Wake Forest, etc...), and beat some combo of Ky, Vandy and/or Arky... to get us to a bowl game. Kudos. I, unlike many on this board, was happy with that. Would I have liked to have won at least one SEC West championship, or one Bama win, or to capitalize on being 17ing #1 in the nation for 5 weeks, but failing to do so... of course I would. But at least we were competitive every week (except for Bama week, of course), and I think we are getting back there with Lebby. I hope anyway...

ETA... Playing Williams against USA was a dumb coaching decision. FYI

Glad you get your losses. Any fan expecting to have a coach with an sec winning % about 0.0 is stupid

Thanks Lebby for not losing by 50! Lebby for POTUS!

Losing 27-7 today to Florida would have been more acceptable than how we lost today 23-21. If I have to explain that to you then you need to sit in the same seminars that Jeff does.

Also to Miss Lebby who decided to chide our alums and students who traveled today who dared question her husband's decision making at the end of the game - stop taking up for the men in your life's poor decision making.

16 was a bad year - Sirmon all you gotta say.

USA was Williams instead of Fitz - ballgame - another QB loyalty issue IMO

9 Houston refs screwed us that game - the penalty on throw past line of scrimmage when replay showed he was 2 yards behind it is SEC office screwing

11 Auburn - screwed again by SEC refs. Dyer goal line TD in first half was clearly not a TD (I was sitting at the goal line), Then the 4th down no first down but ref comes in a moves the ball after the spot for a first down. Relf was also playing hurt that day.

Funny thing about those "refs screwed us" losses, is that there's just as many "refs saved us" wins but we forget about those

There are?

The only one I can think of is maybe Auburn 2018 that had 2 50-50 judgment calls that went in our favor, but I wouldn't say they screwed Auburn.

Refs are incompetent far more often than they intentionally rig games. There might be 2-3 games a year we play where the SEC has a motive for us to loose. Even then, it's a stretch to say every bad call in those 2-3 games is bias vs incompetence. While we'll never win a game due to "bias", we've no doubt won some from incompetence.

As an example, take the TN game this year. The SEC has a motive to protect their potential playoff team, yet TN had a TD called back on a god awful OPI call. Had we won that game, every TN fan would say the refs "cost them the game" because of it. Of course, several people here will be quick to point out the bad calls that went against us in that same game. Ultimately, refs were incompetent -but not biased- despite the obvious motive the SEC had to rig it. But the fact you can't recall that OPI call from just 3 weeks ago is proof of my point- we just don't remember calls unless they make us feel outrage.
