Worst charge call I've ever seen. Proof of corruption at Aub. Classic blocking.
Not Monday morning QB now, no but at the time yes there was.Quote:

**** this Auburn team. Full of dickheads. I wish nothing but the worst for Mazara.
We'll just have to disagree on this one R2. And that's OK. I always told my folks, if we're both nodding in agreement all the time, only one of us is doing the thinking.Quote:

Next 5 games:
OM
@Tenn
@USCe
Bama
Mizzou
You need to be 3-2 AT WORST in that stretch. You really need 4-1. That UK loss is looming large because now you have to steal another on the road somewhere.
Yeah that is fine but you made the chuckle comment after you waited on Aub run.Quote:

Agree with this. OM game a must win to me.Quote:

That's definitely one way to look at it. Or we can see ebb and flow in a game and understand a run is only a segment of the game.Quote:

Insane that Kiffin isn't my most hated OM coach.
If there's karmic balance in the world, we win 102-48 while shooting 70% from 3 on Saturday. **** sports.
A few concerning stats tonight:
16 TOs for us and Auburn has 22 pts off those
They shoot 55% for the game and 41% from 3
Us going 3-24 from 3 with Melendez and Harris combining to go 1-9
Hubbard again with a bad night going 2-12 from the floor
Cam Matthews attempting 2 threes. That crap needs to stop
Melendez and Harris combining for half of our TOs with 8
And throw in that lovely three attempt by NwokoQuote:

It's amazing more State fans don't beat their wives after watching us play sports.Quote:

Sixteen is possible. But not likely.Quote:

Think we all knew we would lose. But not that we would play so poorly in the first half against a Broome-less team.Quote:

I'm also putting Kentucky on upset watch Saturday catching bama coming off an abysmal performance tonight.
We are better than Ole Miss. Just can't have a repeat of the first half tonight.Quote:
