Egg Bowl

First one was the 48-0 stomping by Houston Nutt (his only Egg Bowl win). Both Freeze and Luke had their memorable ones but, more often than not, it was an even affair with State.

Kiffin is 3-1. He has the chance to bury State and keep kicking them while they are down. I expect more of the same today.

I won’t take it for granted though. The SEC is a bear and rivalry wins should always be treasured.

Playoff question

Know it’s probably been discussed and I may have missed it. Believe I heard @Chase Parham discuss on pod that teams wouldn’t be penalized for a loss in a conference championship game, is the assumption or was it stated by the committee chair that only applies to a 2 loss team? Prevailing sentiment seems to be if Miami wins out and loses to SMU they’ll get bumped out but wasn’t sure if they view that loss differently than if say Bama loses in SEC champ.

On Florida 20 - 7:00 left in 1st Quarter - QB Draw on bad Ankle!!!

How many times has Weis called a QB Draw in the Red Zone & it has been a complete failure (even with a healthy QB)? 75…80% of the time? Plus, on the play Scott’s attempt at playing OL was abysmal. James completely abused him on this play.

Then on 4th down, we have JJ running towards Scott’s side, where…all he has to do is execute any semblance of a down block on Florida’s ILB. What does he do? BLOCKS NO ONE!!!!

This is the play where McElroy talks about Dart being the lead blocker. Genius analysis there by a former Bama player…as Dart had no blocking responsibility on this play whatsoever. Posted about this right after the play and got a text from my son w/in seconds, “WTH is Scott doing?” He had already “asked” about the QB Draw as well.

As many have questioned our use of offensive personnel, how is someone that bad playing in a game this important? Thank goodness Golding hit on almost all cylinders this season.
