May Day 10 Posted January 2 Posted January 2 Playoffs have been fine. No complaints. The whiney fanbase in question should press their program to generate a good faith schedule or join a conference 1 Quote

S-h-i-t happens (look at a couple of the Bills’ Super Bowls). It turns out that either teams are a lot closer than we thought or the committee’s ranking system is whack, as the semifinals are the 1, 5, 6, and 10 seeds. The nice thing about these matchups is that every team left has a good story or a reason to root for them. Indiana came out of nowhere and took down the mighty Buckeyes in the B10. Miami was criticized for even being there, then upset the 7 and 2 seeds. Ole Miss had their coach leave them on the cusp of the playoffs. And Oregon just goes about their business and made Texas Tech look silly. I’m pulling for an Indiana/Ole Miss final, but I’ll really be fine with any matchup. Dumb is the wrong word. He jumped for greener pastures. I’m sure he’s eagerly accepting any credit he’s being given for Ole Miss’ success. Personally, I think he’s a dick and I’m rooting for huge failure in Baton Rouge, but he isn’t “dumb.” He walked away from Ole Miss because he didn't think he could win a CFP there, but now they are really close to winning a CFP. He looks like a real moron, today. He could of had it easy at Ole Miss. 1 1 1 Quote

He will fail at LSU and get some NFL job. He’ll be around until he is 75 and will suck the whole time. Abandoning a program you lead while they’re in the midst of their most campaign in forever is a revelation of character. Of which he has zero. 4 Quote
SF Bills Fan Posted January 2 Posted January 2 I’d like for Indiana to win it all but it would be funny if Ole Miss did and made Kiffin look foolish. He already looks silly now. 1 Quote
US Egg Posted January 2 Posted January 2 Any casual CF fan is hopping on the Ole Miss train with Trinidad Chambliss being the little engine that could. Throw in Kiffin’s jumping ship and now you have a legion loving the new darlings of the CFP. Suddenly Indiana isn’t the big story, at least for a week, though they’re a team of destiny I think more fans today than yesterday rather they not win it all. 1 1 Quote

Of which he has zero. I was having a debate with some friends about Kiffin. My argument was that he could be the worst character in college football history. Just decades of phoniness, ego, and no integrity. My friends said this is just the way it is now. But even with the new landscape, just the way in which kiffin did this (publicly, in a self-centered way, and during a legit playoff run), makes this seem far worse to me. 1 Quote

I ignored it until I was hearing updates one day while he was "deciding" that he woke up, went to church and was doing yoga with his family. That part was non-negotiable. Like what the hell? Who cares? Has the guy ever won anything? So much hype for nothing. Edited January 2 by May Day 10 1 Quote

Got some senior ladies and gentlemen from the Hoosier state who could only dream of topping Michigan, Ohio St., Penn St, Wisconsin, and more to travel to Pasadena. No, it’s not the tradition Big Ten vs PAC10 showdown, but demolishing ALA FREAKING BAMA in the Rose Bowl isn’t a bad thing either! Quote

You can't even compare the recruiting prowess of Ole Miss versus LSU historically Everybody trashing that yet Nick Saban and every single football mentor would tell you to take that job .. Nick told him to take the job It's something that comes around once in a lifetime Ole Miss is a good football school, does not have the historic resources and recruiting pool that LSU has One is a B+ job one is A+ job... Nobody faults regular Joe's for climbing the career ladder This is something that was obviously hard to do but there's a reason why it's a business Nothing says Ole Miss is going to be a wagon for 10 years..it's a good football school that lane took to new height recently...LSU has way more big time donors and recruiting pool People act like Kiffin made this easily.. it certainly was not an easy decision LSU 3-4 of its last coaches have won national championships.. it's a tremendous program Edited January 3 by Buffalo716 Quote
Behindenemylines Posted January 3 Posted January 3 The timing, whether it be rule driven or business driven sucks. Also the Florida BS and LSU drama caused drama and focus away from a historic year for Ole Miss. All of this is designed to focus eyes on targets and marketing. It’s no longer about the student athlete. NIL is sharing the scam witj the athletes driving the scam-which for years they were “denied” with a free education. I still root for teams and enjoy colllege football but it’s more and more just entertainment. Quote

gonzo1105 Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Mississippi is lucky to only be down 7 in this game. Miami has completely dominated this game so far. Quote
sullim4 Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Too bad that Ole Miss kicker isn't declaring for the draft... we should get him. 2 Quote
