    Miles gone.

    They actually didn't fire him until after Vanderbilt, the 6th game of the year, and it was because the other offensive coaches, all of them Tubs' buds, and none of whom he hired, didn't like him yelling at them.

    Ron Polk I vs John Cohen

    First, Polk wasn't there in 1971. Paul Gregory was. Second, that's not even the right year. We won the SEC, and District III in 1971, to go to the CWS for the first time in MSU history, with our pitching staff intact. 1970 was the year that we lost the 2 pitchers because they had played as...

    So coach you still think going to the sweet sixteen and losing big is better than winning the SEC?

    So coach you still think going to the sweet sixteen and losing big is better than winning the SEC? So that makes 4 of us. But why are you replying to me?

    So coach you still think going to the sweet sixteen and losing big is better than winning the SEC?

    So coach you still think going to the sweet sixteen and losing big is better than winning the SEC? You show me the year that we went 1-10 with our only win against UM, and I'm sure that I'll be able to find this plethora of mythical old timers that considered the season a success.

    First Egg Bowl ever witnessed?

    because our TV was still a 1955 RCA black and white. It would be a couple of more years before we got a color TV. I remember the game mostly because of my Dad watching it. '70 was my first Egg Bowl in person. My Dad and I were there in Oxford. I did see my first MSU game in '64, MSU - UF in...

    First Egg Bowl ever witnessed?

    and we didn't beat them again until 1970, which wasn't on TV, but I was there. Frank Dowsing intercepted Shug Chumbler to ice the19-14 victory. Joe Reed was MSU's QB, and Archie was on the sideline with the arm he broke against Houston on Hemingway Stadium's new Astroturf. BTW, Sammy Milner was...

    Rating the SEC- coaching staffs

    31 points to LSU. They lost a defensive battle with <span style="font-weight: bold;">KY!</span> Did you see their bowl game? It was flag football. They won in OT and NW's QB threw like 6 INT's. 8th in a 12 team conference is hardly "solid", especially with MSU, ARK, and KY in said conference...

    Rating the SEC- coaching staffs

    Auburn's defense was solid last year? Did you <span style="font-weight: bold;">ever</span> watch them play? They gave up 31 points to LSU's 112th ranked offense, got run all over by Ark, and blew a 14 point lead to KY. Yes, they played their hearts out against Bama, but still couldn't hold the...

    rating the SEC- DL

    LSU's DL sucked last year. Absolutely<span style="font-weight: bold;"> no</span> pass rush. And LSU fans are all worried that it's going to be too small this year. Not to mention that all their depth comes from freshmen. Drake Nevis as an elite player I'll believe when I see.

    Question for dogs older than me

    Not sure what my fingers were thinking as I read Wiki, other than he wasn't drafted by Boston. That much I remembered on my own. And, actually, the first round. I am a dubmass. But I did make a 29 on the English section of my ACT, for real.
