Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Four Consecutive BCS National Championships (Florida 06, LSU 07, Florida 08, Alabama 09)

Two teams in the AP's Preseason Top 5

Four teams in the AP's Preseason Top 25

By the time of early summer swelters, college football fans in the South wait impatiently for the first game's kickoff. And no where more than in the states that make up the Southeastern Conference. From Woo Pig Suey in Fayetteville, to grinding it out between the hedges in Georgia, to checkered fedoras in Bryant-Denny, to We Are the Boys in the Swamp or War Damn Eagle at Auburn. SEC football is a way of life

We've been touting our conference as the best in the NCAA for decades. With the conference shakeups of the offseason, the other conferences not so subtly acknowledge the SEC as the pinnacle of play as they tried in vain to catch up.

It's something the rest of ya'll just don't understand :banger

Just Realized The Bama-Fl. Game Is The Week Before Epic III!:banger

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Yeah it is. Nothing i love better than whoopin' Tennessee's @ss up and down the field (except maybe UGA's) but i almost hope UT plays us tough just to give our young team some battle experience before going into the WWIII atmosphere that will be Bryant-Denny

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

I'm a UGA fan, how I got to be? I don't know it just happened.

A couple days ago the headline on ESPN.com's home page was this:

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Ugh Nick Saban is not a friend of mine.

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Maybe Not, But He's An Awesome Coach!:D:tu

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Gators...that is all

*Note: The SEC is 6-0 in BCS National Championship Game appearances.

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Thanks for getting the thread started right!! Roll Tide!

Now, lets kick off serious discussions: Wouldn't it send the signal to the NFL to get their house in order if ALL SEC schools excluded scouts at practices until the NFL developed a proper plan to deal with the devastation being caused to college players, their education and the college programs by un-ethical scouts and/or agents. This is really a NCAA wide need, not just the SEC. But, giving the current power rating of the SEC, maybe if we lead the way, we can get the NFL to at least acknowledge their responsibility.

Too heavy for this thread?

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

I think that would be a good thing. The only negative is that a coach has to totally close practices even from fans, as Meyer and Saban did, in order to assure no scouts or agents infiltrate. Football crazy SEC fans have become accustomed to attending practices but i think most fans approve of closing them for the greater good

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Great post Mike!! Love it :tu

It's these traditions that made me abandon the NFL!! I didn't watch one complete NFL game last year, but I watched hundreds of college football games!

GO NCAA!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

OOOOH OOH Go Dawgs

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Feel the same way bro. A bunch of over paid divas in my book. I still watch a few here and there but just cause I enjoy football in general. But watching a bunch of talented kids with something to prove at a school with a hundred years of tradition and pageantry being cheered on by a nut for his team like myself?!?! Thats what I'm talking about baby :dance:

See how easily I can get carried away.....is it Sept 4th yet???

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Go Cats! :banger

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Major Wright looked excellent in the Bears' pre-season game last night, maybe the only bright spot.....Go Gators! :D

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Major is a BA Gator. Guys like that who bring it without regard to their bodies amaze me!!!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

He is definitely BA. Speaking of BA gators, its Tebow first preseason game tonight! should be playing most of the second half i imagine

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Just watched Tebows first series as a pro. Not too bad. He made a nice pass in the flat, had a good handoff, and then had a very nice pass dropped.

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Nice. If hardwork and perseverance can make a good NFL QB Tebow will be successful. Be sick if him and Harvin ever wind up on the same team

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

I am actually a little worried about Percy. The word on the street is he had some problems at Fla and what has happened since doesn't produce much confidence.

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Yeah i heard that. He's also a little dinged up right now i think but he was nothing short of stellar when i played last year. Hopefully he can solve the off the field issues, get healthy and he'll be a perennial all-star

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Ditto, baby!!!

And, it's that support of tradition, and the appreciation of the heartfelt efforts placed on the field by the student athletes that makes college football so big. That tradition with U of A and AU is, IMO, the main reason that Birmingham will never have a successful NFL team (plus the fact we don't have the size to support one, even if the demand was truly there)!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Go cocks!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Just about time to get it on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Roll Tide!! :xxx

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

looking forward to the showdown in Tuscaloosa brother!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

No doubt. We get Penn State the second week and then we've got y'all coming in early October...some good matchups to get the year started.
:tu

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

:tu:banger Roll, Tide! Tebow Looked Good The Other Nite! 1st Touchdown In The Pros, Ran Through 2-3 Defenders Just Like His Old College Days.:tu

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

I'll be rootin' for ya against Joe Pa! Ya'll have been making us proud whoopin' up on VT two years in a row. Ya'll beat Penn State and Auburn takes care of Clemson at home, the SEC will be sittin' pretty

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

As a Big 12 guy it is hard to see how strong the SEC is going to be this year and how weak my conference is going to be.

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

The SEC is always strong compared to the other conferences :D

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Your telling me. I'm going Grad school up at Clemson and have to watch the Almost Collegiate Conference (AKA the ACC) every saturday!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

You can come down and watch some SEC action in Columbia instead of the ACC Crap :D

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

So, what about that reporter, Renee Gork I think her name, who grabbed a cap to cover her head from the rain before she went to cover an Arkansas press conference . . . but, being a UF grad, she just happened to grab a Gators one. Did she catch flak for it? Actually, she GOT FIRED!!


Sheesh. There's being a fan, then there's just being freakin' clinically insane.

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

The Hogs have made her an offer...change your name to Renee Pork and you may have your job back. :xxx

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo
PIG
Soooiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

RAZORBACKS!!!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

The Hogs are gonna be good this year. Got the best QB in the SEC in Mallett (that is before Brantley is proven ;))

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

If Mallett has calmed down a bit and worked on his foot work (we here that he has) then he will likely be the best QB in the NCAA. Add that with a returning group of core receivers - probably the best over all core in the SEC - and a stable chock full of running backs and we will dominate the score board.

The biggest question mark is the defense. Last year's D was terrible... But we've made some changes and picked up some key players and word from the camp is that the D is MUCH improved. If it is... and the stars align on offense then I fully expect to see big things happening for the Razorbacks.

I have high expectations and even higher hopes for this season!

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

indeed sir, gonna be VERY dangerous this year. glad ya'll rotated out of the gators regular season schedule :tu

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

BAMA Plays The Hogs 9/25/10 At Arkansas! Should Be A Good Game!:banger

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Funny thing is... The Arkansas/Bama game usually determines who has the better season. It is both my favorite and least favorite game to watch as both are teams that I root for. I mean, obviously I pull a bit more for my Hogs... but I also find myself cheering every time Bama gets a touchdown or breaks down our offense. Most of my family are Bama fans including those of us from Arkansas - who are obviously Hog fans. That being said... We're gonna stomp a mud hole in you guys this year! :su

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

Bring It, Brother!:D:tu

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

The Arkansas game always scares the hell outta me. Always.
We almost have you solidly in our clutches. Sucking you right on in.
Smart people.
I'll have two of what you're on. Bring it Hog! -(P

And welcome to the thread. We generally try to keep it pretty civil but a little smack sneaks out every once in a while. Now, if we can just get our friendly barners to show back up. You hear me Aubrun fans? Where y'all hiding? Dan'l? Where you at? :r

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

How are those NCAA investigations going boys? :r

Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
 

You got something to say? Or you just trying to start trouble?
