That is exactly why CMR, Bobo and Grantham need to find other jobs

on the bright side we are now Bowl Eligible. Best case would be a spot in the Chik-Fil-A Bowl (if we win out) but more than likely it will be the Gaytor Bowl or Music City Bowl.

Not looking forward to nest week.

TN Dawg spot on.

With you on two out of three ogredawg.

Amazing how a coaching change can alter the dynamics of a college football team. Auburn took Tennessee apart today, and believe it or not, coasted.

Glad to get the win, glad to see AM crawl some butts at halftime. He was angry.

Really bothered me a couple of times today when our defense was "confused" and Grantham was waving his hands like a gooney bird. Thought all of the gooney birds were on Midway Island, guess one escaped.

Not to be fooled by the 6 points Appalachian State ended up with, Grantham saved "again" by AM. Will see the spread next week, just a different cast, both on and off the field.

Sincerely hope we put Auburn down, as a betting man . . . . don't like to lose money.

Wish I could put on my happy face, hard to do that and be honest with myself.

I haven't heard "gooney bird" in years...

Nice description.


I'm glad we out-athleted them today..

Was on Midway Island in 1961, would take thousands of words Wartdawg to explain the laughter the Albatross caused Navy folks like myself. On Midway, it was hilarious. In Athens Grantham is anything but hilarious.

al·ba·tross (lb-trôs, -trs)
n. pl. albatross or al·ba·tross·es
1. Any of several large web-footed birds constituting the family Diomedeidae, chiefly of the oceans of the Southern Hemisphere, and having a hooked beak and long narrow wings.
2.
a. A constant, worrisome burden.
b. An obstacle to success.


Edit: This reminds me of Todd Grantham on the sidelines, arms flapping . . . . Therein the reason for "gooney bird".
