College football hierarchy

Sad that we re hanging our Hat on being the best in 1/2 of a Conference.

 

Groves...

 

It was a joke, a sad but true joke

 

I never thought at age 13, standing in the GA Dome celebrating a win ovet Miss St in the SECG that I'd be 32 and we not have another title since. Shame how far we've fallen.

 

Nope, those titles came before my Auburn fandom began.

 

I feel embarrassed for not realizing it. I know you better than that.

 

Notre Dame has had some pretty decent seasons in the nit too distant past. They've also been able to attract some pretty big hires the last two times around. UT hasn't done anything like that and the last two hiring cycles we were forced to basically beg a couple of awful coaches. They are definitely ahead of us right now.

 

I mean, we basically hired Brian Kelly's dim-witted little brother and we've given him multiple extensions.

 

True. They played in the National Championship game in 2012 and finished in the top 5 of the Final pole.

 

I think we were. There's a reference to us and Nebraska having dropped off, despite the initial list only showing Nebraska dropping off.

 

true, but i'm not sure they can win a NC in the playoff era without significantly improving their athleticism which would require them lowering academic standards.

 

Yeah I dug a little further and found we were.
