no way, that stupid old man needs to die for screwing up MSU's chance at the Rose bowl.
Now we have to pray for a osu loss to Illinios for the chance to win and go to Pasadena

What's Below Rock Bottom???
John Brice
Volquest.com
The first time I noticed an in-game rendition of "Rocky Top" came 20 minutes into Tennessee's homecoming contest against Wyoming; the Vols trailed already 13-0 inside sparsely populated Neyland Stadium, where perhaps 30,000 alums and fans were disguised as empty aluminum bleachers.
What, possibly, could've sparked the striking of the band? Well, that came courtesy Wyoming's Jake Scott, who shanked the extra point attempt on linebacker Ward Dobbs' pick-six interception that would've lifted the Cowboys to a 14-0 lead. Nice. Sort of provided an jazz funeral-type feel to a week in which athletics director Mike Hamilton eschewed the easy and popular choice regarding the University of Tennessee's football future in favor of the right one. Twenty-one losses and counting since the onset of the 2005 season; 10 years and going since the last conference title.
So welcome to Tennessee football homecoming, 2008. Where "rock bottom," which supposedly arrived three years ago in a home loss to Vanderbilt, now has been replaced by whatever is below "rock bottom."
The Vols just gave up 14, oops 13, points off two turnovers, a pair of Nick Stephens interceptions that apparently were all that stood between them and an 7-0 win. So said Fulmer.
"If we don't have that," said Fulmer, "we win 7-0 maybe, I don't know."
Tennessee, despite play that must have had Gen. Robert Neyland rolling over in his grave, had chances to win. Yet it dropped passes, overthrew passes, was 0-for-2 on fourth-down conversions and didn't record a sack while the Cowboys thrice dropped Vols signal-callers.
Tennessee's defense couldn't get off the field quickly enough on the ensuing Cowboys possession, which gnawed some 4 minutes, 23 seconds off the clock and ended at the Vols' own 21-yard line only when the Pokes came up inches short on fourth-and-two-and-a-half. Seventy-nine yards of real estate for this offense, which finished the day with just 219 total, might as well have represented a transcontinental journey.
Devoid of the emotion that ruled his dismissal press conference on Monday, Fulmer said the Vols "should have won" the game. Anyone who watched knows otherwise. Tennessee was outplayed; it was out hustled; it was outcoached.
It wasn't "rock bottom." It's whatever rests beneath that, aside from this Tennessee football season.

next weeks OU/Texas Tech game should be a pretty good game.
I'm not sure what UGA and Kentucky were playing yesterday afternoon, but when time ran out UGA had more points on the board.

Well, I've figured out my pick for Fulmer's replacement...........
Despite his offense's complexity, Leach won't be found burning the midnight oil in his office. In a profession where it is not uncommon for coaches to sleep in their offices during the season, Leach usually shows up for work around 10 a.m., often in Hawaiian shirts, board shorts and flip flops, and is on his way home by 9 p.m., leaving him time to pursue his other passions.
A few years ago Leach flew to Boston so he could hang out in the Irish mob's South Boston stomping grounds. Leach has also directed his obsession toward Geronimo, JFK and all things pirate. He owns a copy of Geronimo's death certificate and visitors to his office are greeted by a life size skeleton dressed up as a pirate, a gift from Red Raiders basketball coach Pat Knight.
The fear around Lubbock is that Leach might be headed out of town, taking the pirate, the Warren Report and his playbook with him.
Leach was linked to the UCLA job last season and is being mentioned as a candidate for openings or potential openings at Washington, Clemson and Tennessee as well as several NFL jobs. He applied for the Miami job two years. Miami president Donna Shalala went another direction despite receiving a letter of recommendation on Leach's behalf from Donald Trump.

Weber State University, my alma mater, won the Big Sky Conference title!
They've s*cked at football for so long, it's nice to see Ron McBride (University of Utah's former coach) turning them around!!!
