Things can always be worse.

We didn't win any in 1968. You never forget these kind of seasons, and had just as soon not have to go through that again. DO SOMETHING!

17-17 to end the year. Fitting.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

yeah, but that '68 USM team would have finished 2nd in the sec.**

 

[57stratdawg]

Honestly, win the Egg Bowl and this season isn't a total waste. Three SEC wins and 3 close loses ends the bowl streak - oh well.

Get throttled in the Egg Bowl and it's a **** burger.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

We may lose but we ain't getting throttled.

 

[patdog]

There is really no telling what may happen in the Egg Bowl. Both offenses could potentially score 50. Both defenses have quit at times this season. Neither team had good leadership.

We may lose but we ain't getting throttled.

That's what I thought about Arkansas.

 

[ShrubDog]

I guarantee you we forced at least 1 punt in each loss.

Exactly. The way Fitz and our offense has grown, coupled with our DBs and lack of pass rush, I am expecting a Big 12 scoring game.

 

[klong-dog]

Whelp, it actually can't get any worse on the defensive of the ball. It was hand off, misdirection, counter or whatever they ran, it was no one in sight, to the house. Worst D I've ever seen from Miss St.

 

[TaleofTwoDogs]

Look! Bama had 3 losses. Oh, the good ole days. Of course, in excellent bulldog style we were winless.

 

[fishwater99]

So Arky never punted last night?

 

[Hoover Dawg]

You're delusional. History tells you that Ole Miss is about to bring their best effort of the year. I have no clue what we will bring. Vasoline, I suppose, will be useful.

 

[TaleofTwoDogs]

That's correct. I don't believe I've ever seen that before. They scored on every drive except the one where they missed the field goal. Even a small directional school can get a 3 and out at least once.
