Southern Miss has run the same three plays on offense this half. And UK hasn't been able to stop it. I'm speechless
His Twitter is hilarious. Some things never change.

Glad to know you stalk my Twitter :lol:

And dunno how "some things never change" when I spend half my time shitting on UK football and Stoops.

This college football season has been crazy, just now catching up on this entire thread. A few thoughts....

I think LSU was stupid for firing Miles in the offseason, because they should have fired him at the end of last season. The fact is, he's a great recruiter but not a good coach. I'll never forget when he won the national title and lost to us that year....Scott ran for nearly 200 yards on us in the first half, and he got two carries the rest of the game (including the final carry in double OT on 4th and 2) and he had his QB throwing the ball in the 2nd half, which led to turnovers that got us back into the game. He is awful at clock management and it cost him in the end.

I think Jeff Brohm will get a huge job this year.

I think we're stuck with Stoops for next year as well because our AD gave him a bigger buyout than Miles did.

I think UofL loses to Clemson this weekend, and still wins the ACC and makes the CFP--if Jackson doesn't get hurt with how he tries to take people on at the end of his runs (kid is an absolute freak, if he played for anybody other than UofL I would love watching him play). Petrino isn't going to LSU, or anywhere else--he basically can name his contract at UofL with the capital he has built up with the program/fans, not to mention he gets Jackson back next year, AND he has a $10m buyout.

I think Ohio State is the team to beat this year.

Jsence is no longer with us!
No watch, no nothing, just gone!
I'm still here from time to time. Just quite busy with the new job, and now writing for both SB Nation and Rotowire.

1. Shitting on Stoops? Can't say basically everyone didn't warn you :lol:

2. And you're spot on with Charles Scott having an epic 1st half, then getting 2 carries in the 2nd half of that loss. That was sooooo terrible.

Don't get me wrong, he's a phenomenal recruiter. But his loyalty to DJ Eliot is his undoing. Halftime last weekend, he literally sent Eliot upstairs, and he took over defensive playcalling, and the last six quarters were markedly different. The problem is, he should've done that a year ago, and it is too little, too late at this point. It's year 4, with the talent we have there's no excuse for not being a bowl team. The implosion to Southern Miss was beyond embarrassing.

some wrestling podcast i listen to, one of the guys is a writer in Kansas who gets an AP vote i guess?

Matt Galloway ‏@themattgalloway 10m10 minutes ago
I ranked LSU higher on my @AP_Top25 ballot than any voter in the country ... the day it fired its coach. Here's why: http://cjon.co/2dn0Jff

You need to see (if you haven't) Eddie O presser side by side with Cookie Monster. Eddie O is my all time favorite coach.

Saw on BR today guesses of your new coach. KIffin name was featured heavily.

This weekend will be interesting. Texas vs OSU. Hopefully they figured out something with that porous Defense. As long as Beuchele is healthy we are the exact opposite team we were last year. If he's not, we are going to be bad on both sides of the ball and the Strong Era will come to an end rather quickly.

I almost didn't post it as I thought he was sick or had a disease or something and would feel bad.

Then I did it anyways.
