If you listen to the 5th Quarter show did anyone else hear Bart Gregory refer to Dean Marvins as “Big Game Dan” in reference to him losing Saturday? Pretty damn funny. Really appropriate too. Wonder what the SID really thought of him.

But to hear our fans, Dan would be undefeated right now with that 6-32 record against the top 25. A very short term memory on big games under Dan. I won't even bring up the Egg Bowls he wasted away. Would be too easy.

I’ll give Dean this. With the exception of the Georgia game last year, he usually had his team focused on the road and the crowd didn’t seem to affect them like this year.

You can tell he is still b u t t h u r t about that Georgia game last year. The flea-flicker was the first play Florida ran.

I disagree with that. I can think of a road game in every season where we didn’t seem remotely prepared.

2009 - Auburn
2010 - Alabama (the week after Nick Bell died so that one is understandable)
2011 - Auburn (spotted them a 14-0 lead and were behind the whole way)
2012 - Egg Bowl
2013 - Oklahoma State (neutral site game but still)
2014 - Egg Bowl
2015 - Texas A&M (not a great A&M team and they handled us)
2016 - UMass (we won that game but it was nearly a disaster)
2017 - Georgia AND Auburn

Add 2016 Alabama to your list

Another game where ol’ Dan only managed a field goal. UT Chattanooga played them closer than we did

I was referencing the egregious amount of presnap penalties we have on the road. I don’t remeber it ever being as bad as it is this year. And the whole “allowing Bennie 17’ing Snell to get them all bent sideways” before the game even started.

Not trying to be argumentative but that’s not true at all. It’s the opposite actually. You can’t forget about one of the worst skull 17ings we ever took under Mullen last year by Auburn 49-10. Don’t let the 2014 LSU Game and 2016 Egg Bowl cloud your better judgement.

Bad Losses on the Road under Mullen- 2017 Georgia, 2017 Auburn, 2016 BYU, 2016 Alabama, 2016 Kentucky, 2015 Texas A&M, 2014 Egg Bowl (Probably the 17ing Worst of the bunch). You get the point. I don’t have to go further.
