LSU Coach Brian Kelly and his Tigers. Sure, they almost pulled out a win thanks to the bone-headed pitch sweep play Florida State Coach Mike Norvell called at the end of their game in New Orleans. But, they didn’t. The Tigers look lost in the swamp. And then this week Kelly does this?
Kent State gave the Washington Huskies all they wanted last week. And this week the Flashers are spending it in Tulsa, checking out the Greenwood historical neighborhood and practicing at Tulsa Union instead of flying back to Ohio only to turn around and come to Oklahoma for Saturday’s game in Norman. (Curious how a scrimmage with Tulsa Union might turn out).
We like Marty & McGee on the SEC Network (as we get geared up for the conference leap), but doing a feature on award-winning mullets was too much last weekend. No. Just no.
As odd as it sounds, thumbs up to Matt Wells for getting fired at Texas Tech last year. When he was later hired as an analyst by Sooners Coach Brent Venables, a Texas Tech recruiting commit changed his destination to follow Wells to OU. That players was Gavin Freeman, who scored the 42-yard reverse touchdown against UTEP.
Boo to the Texas Athletic Department. The University of Alabama “Million Dollar Band” will not make the trip to Austin, Texas on Saturday for the Alabama-Texas game because UT placed their seats in the nose-bleed section of DKR stadium.
Thumbs up AND thumbs down. Texas QB Quinn Ewers had his car towed from campus no-parking zone in Austin while he was quarterbacking the Longhorns to a 52-10 win over Louisiana-Monroe. His car? Reportedly, an Aston Martin (which sell for $146,986 new).
