These things go in cycles

[Bulldogg31]

Auburn beat Bama six years in a row from 2002 to 2007.

Florida beat Florida State six in a row from 2004-2009, then FSU won five of the next six.

As bad as South Carolina is, they beat Clemson five years in a row (2008-2013) before losing in 2014 and now 2015.

We will be back on top again soon. It's a cycle. Just hope it doesn't take three or four more years.

I hope. But I look at that list and I don't really see one school consistantly finishing 10 to 15 spots higher in the recruiting rankings.

+1 This pretty much sums it up. Next

I hope. But I look at that list and I don't really see one school consistantly finishing 10 to 15 spots higher in the recruiting rankings.

Nothing to see here......move along.

Not saying nothing has to change. Clemson had to get their **** together or keep getting their asses kicked by Carolina and FSU. So they did.

Losing is a great motivator. We'll get it going right.

But, you're probably right. We'll never win another Egg Bowl. It's over.

its true...it is cyclical....we were handing the bears defeat after defeat in all 3 sports 5-10 years ago and now we are in that trough and the shoe is on the other foot. im about sick of losing, much less to those ********. basketball seems to be turning, but we are still a couple of recruiting classes away from just breaking even, baseball....who the 17 knows at this point, and football....they are headed for at least a lean rebuilding year, maybe two, but this **** has to stop. its about time for our turn back in the drivers seat.


its sad when our saving grace is womens basketball. we need to get off the schneid and stay off it. our all time advantage in the big 3 is dwindling and that makes me uncomfortable. scott needs to do a better job managing that aspect because he has been getting his *** kicked thanks to ray and cohen under-performing and now mullen is shitting the bed. although sprinkled with a win here and there, this drought is unacceptable and if we aint beating om, odds are, we are scraping the bottom of the barrel in athletics which has been the case in the very recent past (last couple of seasons).

Several times in my life it's looked like MSU or Ole Miss might finally bury the other, but it never happens. It won't happen now either.

But the next time we're on top, it'll finally happen then.** We can hope.

I can't consider Women's basketball a saving grace. This is horrible and its messing folks minds up to think it can be one.

Exactly right. It sucks losing to them, but I can't accept that Mullen and the staff are so stubborn they don't see that we have to change some things.

Good point. It seems to be related more to coaching than recruiting, in those cases.
