    Corey.... I'm simply saying that college football teams especially are prone to week in week out fluctuations of preparation and intensity and a team like ND grabs Michigan's attention and saps their energy level and they don't bring it the next week.

    Any team playing Georgia or LSU this Saturday would be catching both at a good time for instance..

    I see Alabama suspended HaHa Clinton-Dix indefinitely. Saban's press conference was hilarious, the control he currently has over everything is phenominal and reflective of winning.

    He basically told the reporters that he was suspended and to not bother to ask him questions now or in the future. My drive time radio guys were incensed that he would tell reporters what they could ask and what they couldn't. Winning baby!

    Interesting that when I make good points all I get back sometimes is chitter chatter about how everything I say is all about Gators.... SEC.... yada yada yada.

    What a cop out.

    Let's see..... I could look through all of your posts.... everyone one of you and see how many times you mention Notre Dame ( if it fits)... Tenn ( if it fits )..... TexA&M ( if it fits )..... well..... you get my point.

    I would love to see that stat MCG. Please go through the posts and do a percentage of the total posts by each that mention their favorite school. I want to see that data.

    And nobody here is saying that you don't have the right to be proud of your school. Most of us have acknowledged their qualities. What is not welcome is the chest thumping. Constant chest thumping. Incessant chest thumping. Never ending chest thumping. And defense of that chest thumping. And feigned innocence when wondering why the backlash at all the chest thumping.

    WSU what does not get recognized is I am as critical as anyone could be when I am not satisfied with a player, coach or the Florida program in general.

    Anything I say regarding those sorts of criticisms gets overlooked and anything that really is a neutral statement about the SEC or Florida gets overlooked so those statements when I speak in favor of either becomes like fresh meat for some of you..... ( not all of you I might add.... and thank you for that ).

    I guess if it gives you something to do......

    Did you guys read Stoops comments on SEC defenses? Pretty funny read, he made a point that such great defenses as LSU, Alabama, Georgia all gave up 40 points and he wondered why...answered his own question...they finally have some great QB's in the league. He noted that B12 defenses are statistically great this season...why no great QB's in the B12.

    I am not sold at all on the Ga and LSU defenses and I am also not 100% sure Bama's defense is as good this year although their shutout of Ole Miss might just refute that statement.

    Bama Asst. S&C coach also suspended, he loaned HaHa 500$ and has connections to a representative of an Agent.

    Don't you love it, agents are a bunch of wiley scumbags. I"m sure that who ever this Agent "representative" is that the Agent will say he was acting on his own and that he doesn't condone breaking the rules to get a client...yeah sure.

    HaHa to his credit was able to produce bank records that he paid back the loan.

    Dave,

    I'm giving you credit. Your last post was a good one. The others were shitty, but that last one was good.

    Kes,
    HAHAHAHA

    Terry,

    Stoops can go backstroke in a lake of fire for all I care. He has zero credibility.
