Thanks Snuffy. That is an answer that makes sense. I would have never figured that out.

In the 3 (or more) team tie-breaker rules, there is one that is is unclear to me. I am hoping someone can explain it. C. Head-to-head competition against the team within the division with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non-divisional) and proceeding through the division...

Alasippi, Very interesting bit of insider perspective. Can you elaborate any on your source? Thx

What a great question and insightful responses. I guess I should communicate on this board more often. I usually don't when, as in this case, I have nothing new to add. I will say that CNS is exceptional and we are truly fortunate to have him. I often wonder how much, if at all, the Alabama...

I was at the game - left at the end - got to Bham at 8pm. Basically go anywhere but McFarland - parking downtown is much better than the Soccer field.

The first row behind the field suite is row 11. I have ST in row 11 and row 12. I love them. Much better to be low than high in the end zones.

In actual numbers of Juniors and Seniors, Auburn and Kentucky are equally young and the two youngest teams in the SEC. On the other end, Ole Miss, TAMU and Ark. have the highest number of experienced players. However, when walk-ons are included to calculate total roster numbers, the youngest...

John Chavis does not need any help from anyone in designing a game plan. But if he did, he could look of the tape of BAMA-Mich. Controlled pass rush that clogs Johnny Football's running space. If LSU has the DB's to cover and they should, stopping TAMU should not be too difficult. I think...

Re: Paul Davis RIP (hated Auburn and Lowder).... After the Buster Brown story didn't the newspaper office where Davis worked get torched?

I think you are on track 'Ole Man'. Obviously there is more to it than your concise statement as I imagine you would agree. What I wonder is were we unwilling "to do what's necessary" during the Perkins and Curry years? I think it is pretty well documented that Alabama's leadership was not...

Brando's greatest talent is his appreciation for his own opinions. But I admit, having closely followed BAMA basketball since 1968, we are not a top tier basketball school. We can be.

Thought about this more and the BOL poster probably means Sword. Another M State commit. Big rep as a scorer. FWIW, I'm not sure we need another 6'3" guy.

UAB should look at Johnny Jones (North Texas). Played and coached in SEC.

Could the BOL poster be referring to Tyrone Haughton? He is 6'9" out of Miami who signed with USCe but could probably get a release due to Horn being fired. That could explain not having to sit out a year. I'm not sure he qualifies as an answer to more scoring however. Best case scenario in...

As far as today's 'no-call', it certainly appeared that TR was fouled. I believe he was fouled because the shot was not blocked and only a blow to the arm could cause that shot to be four feet short. However, refs do not like to make calls like that on last second shots. For some reason they...
