First! And equally unrelated to the game:
Let me just say that I’m very relieved our coaching search is over now. With the news about Tuberville and the gazillion other vacancies cropping up, it’s going to be nice to sit back and relax a bit.
(Betcha didn’t think I’d actually segue a First! into an actual comment, eh?)
I still think it's funnier Auburn's looking at Petrino
Seriously, if he bails after a season at Arkansas the jokes are never going to get old.
And since I’m still beating the Brian Kelly stuff into …well, the ground on the other side of the planet, that should tell you something.

Sure:
Where the UT offense this year was 1-2-3-punt, the Auburn offense next year can be 1-2-3-change jobs!
And he'll be available when they get rid of Weis
Because we didn’t give him a lifetime contract. :(

lol
I watch that movie sometime near the beginning of every football season. I’m certainly no Dame fan, but it’s a terrific football movie.
Heh. Welcome to the party.
Eh, why not? We’ve had our stress for a while. Time to dumb things down a touch, let the e.e.g. readings zero out, and relax.
I think they keep track of how many languages Negedu speaks.
by Chris Pendley on Dec 3, 2008 7:58 PM EST up reply actions
Not quite
A low blow would be that Chris Low keeps track of how many languages Negedu speaks, and then GVX picks it up two weeks later.
by Chris Pendley on Dec 3, 2008 8:09 PM EST up reply actions
Wouldn't everything from Chris
be a Low blow?
:-D
(…or was that what you were insinuating and I was just too dense to catch it?)
I didn't even realize that
I was just taking pot shots at GVX.

This game is sponsored by the Bricklaying Association of America.

Yeah, he's no Danny Elfman.
/obscure Family Guy joke
by Chris Pendley on Dec 3, 2008 7:34 PM EST up reply actions
I've never watched Family Guy.
But since that wasn’t a Simpsons gag 5 years earlier, I’m guessing it is indeed obscure…
It was from the Star Wars episode
John Williams and the orchestra bites it all at once, so Danny Elfman steps in. It’s probably my favorite moment of …um, Family Guy.

Halftime stats:
Vols 43, Asheville 27
Fouls: Vols not many, Asheville a lot
Percentages: Horrible all the way around.
Rebounds/assists/steals: All Vol
Never been a quadruple double, either.
That’s not as surprising.
by Chris Pendley on Dec 3, 2008 8:12 PM EST up reply actions
How about a quintuple double?
Perhaps speaking 5 different languages at least twice in the same game?
Perhaps the bar should be raised a bit for him...
2 different “your momma” jokes in 5 different languages?
That could work.
Although I really want to overhear Negedu trash-tralking in some language nobody else understands.
by Chris Pendley on Dec 3, 2008 8:18 PM EST up reply actions
I bet he does it.
I would imagine that he’s taught the team a couple of phrases so they can recognize a bit of what he’s saying. Well, he should, at least. The refs would have no way of knowing what he’s saying.
Ya'll keep an eye on it.
I gotta give the baby a bath. Be back in about 15 minutes. If we can make our layups, Tyler ought to be OK.
A congratulatory post is now up.
I’ll embellish it once the game is over and the final numbers are in.
If you have anything you’d like to see added to the post, let me know. (wvvol, I’m going to mention the 2338. I missed the number while assembling the post, so thanks.)
also notable:
no fouls on Tyler Smith either. He got the 3-2 while playing very controlled ball.
I just wish I could see how is defense looks. Obviously he’ll be player of the game, but I’d like to know just how dominant he’s been.
