I wasn't on this board last football season so I wouldn't know. If you follow my posts, I do believe margin of victory is telling. In fact, I think to disregard it is ridiculous. That being said, i

Tonight on ESPN at 6:30pm Big game for the Big 12 http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/09/18/ripple-effect-of-auburn-kansas-state-will-be-felt-well-beyond-manhattan-tonight/

A&M is the best team I have seen in the SEC this year. And I think it's safe to say after this game, the fsu-ok st game, and the Bama-west va game that the big 12 is better than you Sec'ers give them credit for. I am starting to believe Buddy G. I am thinking Oregon vs the Baylor/OU winner for all the marbles.

So the sec is 2-0 in ur topic , and yet somehow u are ranking other conferences ahead .

K-State misses 3 FG and loses by 6. Pretty sure that is not an easy win for Auburn.


Can't forget the "should have been" TD that bounced off receiver. He was in the endzone and the ball hit his hands, face, pads, whatever else you want to say. Just catch the perfect pass to you! That along w missed FG's leaves 16 points out there. Auburn should drop if you watched the game and get to vote.

Tee hee! Wva is a bottom feeder in the big 12. Almost took out the powerhouse of the sec. Let me translate for ya - if Ky or vandy took OU or Baylor to the wire, it would be similar. Hope that helps. Carry on now.


I was told that West Virginia was an upgrade?

Seriously, WV is better this year. That offense will give OU trouble this weekend. I wouldn't be totally shocked to see WV win that game at home.

Wait - changing attitudes again - to quote Texas fans from last year - A win is a win regardless of how close the game may be or More importantly how good the opponent may be.  So "taking a good team to the wire" makes no difference- or have we again changed the rules since we are not longer talking about A&M :P .

I thought K-State looked more talented and Auburn looked lucky.

Maybe so. But if we look back at games from last year, a whole lot of luck played in Auburn's favor. Just 2 that comes to mind Georgia (tipped pass for TD) and Alabama (putting time back on clock, returning missed FG attempt for TD)

No argument here.

 

And Auburn's luck ran out with 14 seconds left in the national championship.

      Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?

      Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.

      I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.

      He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up.

      I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.
