Week Two Heartbreaks (With Official Assignments Now...Adam)
Though we haven't done the official announcement South Carolina has been assigned for weeks...as have the Georgia Bulldogs.
ISbW ...you get South Carolina for a cuople of reasons. One their heritage with the conference is...well, non-linear. They are a seamless fit, and they were a member of the old Southern Conference but, their history includes stintsnas a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference and as an Independent.
Two, and mainly, with South Carolina you get the Brian Clough of the SEC, maybe all of American football, Stephen Orr Spurrier...Steve Superior, Darth Visor, The Old Ball Coach, The Greatest Gator of them All. That's right. Not only was he a legendary player at Florida...he came back as head coach and turned them from a mediocre squad of under achievers to a monster that dominated the SEC for a decade. "They can call us arrogant, call me a whiner...whatever. They aren't calling us losers anymore."
In 2001 he left for an I'll advised ego trip to coach in the NFL. Three years later he was back in the SEC...at South Carolina where they'd never won anything. Last year he took them to the SEC Championship game and they are a huge favorite in the West this year...they are beasts.
And they beat Adam's desperate Bulldogs this weekend so...let him have it.
Even more unofficial is the assignment of these two teams but, it's out there. This game ended on the two inch line. Heartbreaker.
Mississippi State belongs to Jennifer Q, The Sister (aka Insulting Anonymous Poster) and, Mazes. Mazes gets MSU because they love to play the guitar up there and they smoke a lot of weed...and Mazes is obviously high with some of the stuff he posts.
Dr Wommm has remaind quiet on this issue but he's got Auburn for reasons already stated.
Dr feel free to give Mazes the biness over his coaches atrocious play calling at the end of the game.
Obviously it was the music that put the Dores over the top.
Vandy is on a roll.
Just for fun.
I'll be in Oxford tonight...an appropriate location for making all assignments official and getting this party started in earnest. Full slate of SEC games this week.

hmmm game of inches? damn so close for the dawgs.
ReplyDeleteI'm still not entirely convinced Braylon didn't break the plane.
ReplyDeleteWhy they didn't try to run two plays there at the end I still don't know. Mullen's a great coach but this isn't his first brain cramp at the end of a crucial game.
Greatest game ever!
Should be Ballord not Braylon.

ReplyDelete(previous post was deleted due to the typographical incompetence of the author) I will freely admit my total ignorance of American Football, but if Auburn are the argumentative cranky gits of the SEC I'll be more than happy to fly their flag high. Time for some research into this arcane (for a South Londoner) sporting realm...
ReplyDeleteWe can't talk about all this for very much longer without addressing Alabama and Auburn...the Iron bowl. A grudge of cosmic proportions.
ReplyDeleteAuburn is better for having you aboard.
Nice blog keep it up. Well done
