Watching live, I wasn't sure that Barrett made the first down.

I checked twice:  The Pit 76, Syracuse 61 score was not basketball.

Also, what happened to Louisville?  Getting beat by Kentucky?

THANK GOD! -- Trump used one of his remaining monkey paw fingers on Vanderbuilt, creating a basketball-like crushing score where Vandy traveled over 600 yards against UTKnoxville to end the season in this new alternate universe. I mean, at least he wasted a finger on something relatively trivial.

The "bright side" is that Tennessee finished #2 in the SEC East with a 4-4 conference record.  Hope that cheered you up!

Alabama had 6 turnovers against Auburn and still won by 18.  I wonder if Auburn had been able to play a healthy Stan White if Auburn could have won given all of the Bama miscues.

At least Dook lost.

Cats did what Texas couldn't do...beat Kansas.  :D

The Browns do not belong in the National Football League.

I like how Sean Payton made it a point to run it up on Gregg Williams' defense today

Actually, under normal circumstances I'd be like, "yeah the SEC is the bestest conference and so VERY bestest that we pound each other like drums, so even the second best teams have a bunch of SEC losses!"

This year, I just realized I typed an X instead of a C for the second acronym by accident and it didn't make any difference.  :buck2:

With the exception of 'Bama, if things go as planned and the Tide beat the Gators in the SEC Championship game, there will be no SEC team with LESS than 4 losses.  A down year for the conference as evidenced by the Big (we used to be Ten and then we added more teams but didn't change the name of our conference but we DID change the name of our divisions to something REALLY stupid and then changed them back to directions like everyone else with brains in their heads) 10 having 4 teams in the top 8.

At least Auburns Men's Basketball team is much better this year.  And we also have a 5 star 6'11" recruit coming in next year.  Basketball is the most important sport anyway (says the UNC alum).

And the Tide keeps finding ways to lose games.  Bad 3 point shooting and missing Free Throws.  Anthony Grant still coaching this team?!
