Go to the link, they have a column that states ticket prices.  Bama is listed "as low as $57"???

WTF...are the gumps really that down on Deboer?   

If you are thinking about going, go!  Let's "Orange out" their stadium!

Updated Banks SEC defensive stats through yesterday.

14th of 16 in opponent's total offense.

15th of 16 in scoring defense.

16 of 16 in pass defense.

Charles Barkely says that's turrible.

Truth is, we have played a lot of good offenses, but bama was able to hold uga to 21 in Athens.   

Syracuse and UAB are not great teams overall, but they both have good QBs (had in Syracuses case, he is currently out).  But if we had played worse offenses, I am not sure being 12th/13th in those categories is really any better.

Whatever else you say about Banks, our D has usually improved as the season wears on.  I think one season was the exception, but its generally been true. Hope it is this year!   

Not a bad place to be this time of year.


Hoping the off week gets some guys healthy.

My favorite play of the game, and maybe top ten ever, at least for defense.  Coming right after the fake punt after it did, it was so satisfying.   

I may have screamed a few profantities about MSU immediately following that play. Okay, a lot of profanities.   

..to go on defense if you win the coin toss in OT, but I wonder if MSU is regretting that decision. We got to play it on the end of the field where our fans were, and there were a ton of us. The noise clearly impacted them at the LOS.

Saw on their board that someone questioned why they playted the OT on our end
Simple anser is they had no choice in the matter
Once they won the toss, we got to choose the end of the field

Yes.  BDV is saying maybe they should have taken the ball first and picked the end zone instead. That would be against all conventional wisdom though, I cant see a team ever doing that, the advantage of going second is too great.

Update, the Tennessee highlights package has it clearly
It was Eason that was injured, right ankle
It was Farooq that tumbled into him

Also, it WAS Carter who left his man (TE Traore) to get in front of the WR, Evans to tip the ball
Farooq was coming hard up behind Evans and ended up rolling into Eason

I believe that Spillman was supposed to cover the zone that Evans ran into but Spillman turned his away and lost him

Just a heads up athletic play by Carter to win the game

BTW, Redmond had excellent coverage on their WR on the defense right side

Yes it was a great tip. I'll have to let the guy know.   

But was it Arion or Boo?

I can't stop watching this play.   

Pittman did a decent job at Arkansas. If his guys didn't fumble they'd be 4-1.

The wild card is how the players regard Petrino. If they don't like him the Hogs will get even worse.
