BLOGTOBERFEST! AL GROH COACHBOOK EDITION
Whoever made the Al Groh Coachbook: We love you, but in a noncommital, beaten by Duke, “Meh” kind of Al Groh way. “Al Groh became a fan of Van Halen” is probably our favorite little detail in a well-layered casserole of parody.
In further Facebook news: We thought Pete Carroll might just let the Facebook status hang for a few days as he watched film of the Oregon State game and helped negotiate the bailout package: but you can’t stop Pete Carroll from charging headlong into the future.
WIN FOREVER. Except on Thursdays.
Principles: we have them. Holly took a stand this weekend.
Inadvertently funny. Perhaps calling the Auburn offense the “offensive” is appropriate, if incorrect in a grammatical sense.
Our schedule does not get any easier. Our offensive is virtually last in every statistical category. Franklin please shave and please for the love of god get a first down, that’s all I ask.
Save that for the Octagon, Mr. Pelini. Bo Pelini is one of the few coaches who really looks like he could step in and play a few downs with authority, and perhaps that explains why he picked up a 15 yard unsportsmanlike call in the loss to Virginia Tech while arguing with officials: he looks like he’s about to flying squirrel attack someone.
That’s great news! Further injuries as Jim Tartt gets injured on Florida’s o-line.
Punting would be preferable to what’s currently going on. Lloyd Carr will not be the next head football coach at Syracuse, which Matt helpfully points out, but still mentions because it’s fun to watch people’s heads explode every now and then.
We prefer the cowrie shells and tarot cards. Football Outsiders attempts to take on the dangerous question of “meaningful college football stats.”

Yeah, it’s been a rough season for Auburn so far. Fans are getting upset over the struggling offense, wondering if the team is falling apart. Losing will do that.
What?! You mean they’re 4-1?

You know what things Crimson and white people like?
Kicking the crap out of Clemson on National TV….
You know what else we like? Georgia students who know how to handle defeat like Clemson did, even though, by in large, Georgia students were throwing bottles, keying cars of Bama fans, running off at their black smeared mouth, black shirts and dresses with puke stains, on their way to a record amount of students drinking their way to a mental blackout since they handled like, literally, Bama came in there and buried their pets alive. Will Muschamp has as much chance being the head coach at Clemson as he does coming to Alabama as a head coach when Nick Saban takes the AD job…..If ya dont watch it, VY will be the next OJ and will track you down……

In case everyone had shutters on, there was a bit of an issue up here, yesterday. A lot of commiserating when people got off work. Draw your own conclusions.
Moving on, mocking suicide, or mental instability is TERRIBLE.
I was very, very , very wrong. However, not being able to deal with the pressures of being a highly paid NFL QB is something else, entirely, which is what I should have typed.
The above has nothing to do with suicide, as it did not get that far with VY.
So, again, I was wrong wrong wrong in the direction I went. And, I am very sorry.
As for the rest, there is some truth to it, excluding any Big 10 or Pac 10 fans.
Go read that “things crimson and white people like,” from and you will get where I was going with that. The core is a homogeneous group.
Enough said on that matter.
In conclusion: we are taking Will Muschamp from Texas, assuming Reverend Bowden does not perform another miracle and win the ACC.
Mack is not going to retire soon enough to satisfy WM.
Those of the burnt orange ilk can get their dander up if they want to, but:
HC at Texas >>>>> HC at Clemson >> DC at Texas
