What's with all these folks...

predicting Tennessee getting passed over for the Music City Bowl? Seriously, both ESPN writers are doing it(Liberty vs. S.Miss), NFP and with c’nf on TSK.

On what planet does that make sense?

Jerry Palm(vs. GT), Rivals(vs. NC State), St. Petersburg Times(vs. Miami) and CFN have us in the right bowl at least. St Petersburg’s pick is obviously wrong with Miami stating they will turn down any bowl, but whatever…

UNC picks are wrong too

ACC selection rules put their ceiling as the Independence Bowl.

we tried a triple kill (double minor for high-sticking plus an interference call)

it yielded two goals for the Leafs. That was a bad idea.

I used to hang out a lot at OtF, but some of the people there do a great job at giving people like me headaches, so now I do most of my commenting here… if I remember to. Which I do a pathetic job of doing.

It probably is.

There’s several pessimistic people on there, and it wears on some people after a while. It got really bad when Shea’s arbitration was going down. I imagine it won’t get any better anytime soon.

It's amazing that they love him up there, but I know he's done a good job for him.

I think his biggest problem at UT was the fact that he wasn’t David Cutcliffe.

eh...

We were obsessed with screen passes under him, and several underutilized our offensive talent. At Kentucky his offenses have ranked #99, #23, and #118.

I really believe he is an excellent QBs coach, but doesn’t have the skillset to be a great offensive coordinator. He’s still acts like a player, and that makes discipline absolutely impossible

that's probably the most common one I've heard

I think Dooley was really trying to help Bryce Brown as a person. He wants to teach kids to fight through adversity. In his mind, denying release to guys who aren’t putting in the work is doing that.

Superior logic there....

Doesn’t like Dooley because of “something about a handshake, I don’t really remember what it was, or where, or when, but I didn’t like it”…….

Knows nothing about the Bryce Brown situation except the outcome…

Sounds like really good reasons to hate someone.

"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone."
