“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
He took his shots at Auburn and Tennessee too.
SEC Gameday would be entertaining if they replaced the Muckraker of the SEC with SOS, Nutt and Les Milles.

Who can forget his classic comment when he heard about the fire in Auburn’s library “Heard about that yes and some of the book hadn’t even been colored in yet”.

That came to mind as well as “You can’t spell Outback without UT”.

Joke as old as time, used to say that about Clem in the ’70s.

Yep, Spurrier got credit for every stale joke that was old enough to be his daddy. Then got credit again the next fifty times he repeated them.

All I want is a 30-min show with Spurrier breaking down bad QB play from the week’s games. Let him do it from his backyard pool while crushing a Coors Light for all I care.

So BM is now selling a non-renewable season ticket package ? Kind of sneaky how they rolled out the individual, non-paired tickets a couple months ago and all of a sudden they have this package. “It’s for the fans.” These schools and broker sites are so in bed with each other it’s crazy. While I can’t blame the school for wanting to get all the revenue they can for tickets, I am troubled by all the indicators that seem to point to artificial control of supply and demand to the detriment of the casual fan when you consider there is also the “donation to a non-profit” aspect. This is the behavior of a professional sports franchise, IMO, not “amateur” athletics.

This horseshit “partnership” with Stub Hub suck too. I have 2 APP State ticket that aren’t going to be used so I put them on SH for less than face. They sold immediately but SH and their “partner” now requires you to enter the barcode for each ticket. Apparently the “partner” will then issue a new barcode on a pdf for the buyer. That’s all great but the SH site won’t take the barcodes. I’ve worked with their support for 2 days and they can’t fix it.

May there always be a Spurrier, now that he don’t coach against us.

Captain Sound Bite, he has about as quick and sharp of a tongue as anyone. I would actually like to watch a game with him, I just feel like it would be fun to listen at him fuss about play calling and the refs.

His tongue is sharp to anyone who wishes to engage him, he is really funny off the cuff with the average fan when they attempt to take him on various subjects. Not a mean spirited thing, just another competition to him; it is always about getting the best of someone. Pretty straight arrow, not profane, and very family oriented. Glad he gave LSU a shot, he needs to spread the love beyond UGA and TN.

I’m not really sure where all this admiration for Spurrier comes from. I never liked the man. I will never like the man. When he is an old husk and blown away I’ll be happy.

The guy quit twice because he couldn’t cut it or didn’t want to accept the results – once with the Redskins and, of course, after the woodshed job CMR and Greyson Lambert sent him out with … Big spoiled brat!
