How can you overlook the #1 team in the nation coming into your house and just beat you 66-3 the year before? You did not score, you should be preparing harder that ever.
Maybe I expect too much of people, but it seems it would have been much simpler to suggest you had an off game rather than back-handed compliments.He is crediting our secondary. No, he isn't using overly gushing language. But in today's age, this statement: "they had a pretty good secondary that actually stuck with us" is a glowing endorsement. He is admitting they were good enough to stick with them and defend them.
Now, I agree, it's foolish that they were so arrogant. But I do think his response is rather refreshing and atypical of what we're used to seeing.
That's what happens when you look ahead to Kent St.They "overlooked" Alabama? :biggrin:
The NWO Rebelled, but yet ate the Black Bear rat poison while washing it it down with a good dose of Land Shark Kool Aide, leading to their deserved demise.Just imagine, if you will, the reaction from CNS if units on the team started coming up with names for themselves. I wouldn`t want to be in the same zip code ( although in a way I suppose it would be fun to watch! ). " NWO', " Landsharks", " Pancake Posse". Lord, it`d be apocalyptic!
FIFYThis is why they are Ole Miss - arrogance despite lack of achievement

the Louisville WRs must have sent him the memo on our secondary.That is a very astute observation. Wonder how he came to that conclusion.
NWO= Not Wide OpenMaybe they should call themselves NNWO (Not Nasty Wide Outs)[emoji13]

reading the OM message boards after the blowout, the fans were saying Luke tries to looked angry and frustrated on the sidelines, but in reality he is clueless on how to be a HC. :biggrin:This weekend was the first time I'd ever listened to their HC speak. He did an interview with Finebaum on ESPN leading up to the game and I'll be honest. I know he was a former D-1 Football player at Ole Miss and I respect the heck out of anyone who can play at that level. But the guy doesn't come across as head coach material. He seems to have a waaay too laid back temperament and almost comes across as too much of a "nice guy". And what I saw Saturday night was a team that played like their coach's personality. Soft.
Who did he think they were playing? SE Missouri State?"Metcalf said focus on both sides of the ball was lacking
There's no arguing the Alabama secondary had flaws in the first two weeks of the season.Wwweeeelllllllllll, to be fair there was a lot of teeth gnashing and hand wringing over our secondary on these boards the first two weeks of the season. I don't have a problem with what he said. They probably bought in to what the talking heads were saying about our weaknesses in the secondary. Now, as a player about to play against the #1 team in the country that is a boneheaded mistake to make. But at least he came back and ate crow.
