This week just isn't the same without Sav and Super and Shiny. I guess we'll just have to settle for Grey. (heh)

Oh I don't have a problem with Curry-bashin'.... damn bricks havesharp corners. But I had to give credit where due.

Trivia question of sorts.... which SEC coach has a 1-2 record against Mike DuBose?

That's a trick question - NOBODY could have possibly had a losing record to DuBose.

No, a couple of people did. Only one is surprising, though.

Tubs. SEC coach currently would have to be Spurrier.
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

Auburn won in '97 and '00, Alabama in '98 and '99. Tubby's first season was '99 IIRC, which would make him .500.

The (surprising) big loser would be Stephen Orr Spurrier, who won in Tuscaloosa in '98, but lost in the Smamp and ATL in '99. I've often joked with some Florida fans the losing record to DuBose is the reason Spurrier quit F and went to the 'Skins... He had a losing record to Mike Fuckin' DuBose, and no school in their right mind would hire that sumbich again! It was more than his visor could stand.

Nah, you have Rat to keep you entertained. Tennyweek definitely isn't the same. We would have had at least two 'Bring back Johnny' threads by now.

Losing to Phil in '01 was worse.

Tubs coached at Ole Miss in '97 and '98 and coached against DuBose those years also.

I feel sorry for the refs in this game. They look bored. Maybe they should throw some flags or something to make things more lively? :(

As well as Tenny is playing he talks about is the refs. Old habits die hard.
