What is that one thing that, no matter what, UT always does Derrick Dooley?

They pay off fired coaches

Which is why they cannot afford a $5 million coach right now.

Dooley was not given enough time. He was there, what, 3 years? He was still dealing with Keffin's recruits. It takes 5 years+ to turn a big college football team around.

Um, most everyone in the top 25 have been beaten once, and the Irish is undefeated? Perhaps the Mayans were right.

It has been over 100 years since UT has had even two losing seasons in a row. It's now three in a row.

Not exactly a hint of even holding its own, let alone a "turn around". I'm not even a fan, just looking at the factoids.

There's just some combination of stuff going on there that equals oil and water.

Likely most any former player could have done about as well with the meat as far as actual game management, just letting them play pickup sandlot level ball and call their own plays ("Jack go over right tackle", "Ed you and Bob cross 20 yards out", "hey both y'all stay with number 33", etc)

As a FL fan it saddens me to see him be fired.

And the Mighty Voles didn't get totally skunked in the SEC.

Roll Tide.

[Patton]

Go BAMA!!! I'll be honest, I'm scared to death of unpredictable GA. The SEC championship will be bigger than a National Title game.

Go Gamecocks !!! Edited November 25, 2012 by R1100R

[Guest seawolf138]

LOL, I gotta say, I'm not a ND fan, but I think they've shown their relevance

Now, let's hope Bama can win 2 more. ROLL TIDE!

[ShamGlock]

Hilarious that when this thread started it was all about the Irish no longer being relevant.

Yah, guess you have hang your hat on something if you're an Irish fan, considering they've been irrelevant longer than any of their players have been alive...

someone went undefeated during the regular season, someone else lost to a two loss team.

Another prime example of how hard it is every week in the SEC.
I'm not being a smarta**, but I really want to know. Did Notre Dame play anyone ranked in the top ten the day they played?

[Il Duce]

Do not think so

All in good fun Brad. I hope your guys win and ND gets to repeat some history playing them

[Mike.357]

and let us not forget, if OSU was not on probation the likely matchup for the BCS title would be ND vs. OSU.
