It's nice that Vandy has been a little more stout that usual the last few seasons but let's not pretend that in our lifetimes it isn't a surprise when they beat an Auburn team....

Re: SEC Football Discussion Thread

Anyways, that wasn't my point... Point was, there are games, even SEC games, Vanderbilt can win now without the wonky play calling. Franklin needs to see that.

Ya. If Auburn had even half of its stuff together, Franklin would have lost the game for his team yesterday.

I did like how he pushed the issue on 4th down though with the exception of the Stacy pass attempt in the 4th.

Winning is all that matters. Petrino doesn't cheat, doesn't do illegal things and is a workaholic. My suspicion is that 90%+ of these high-caliber college football coaches aren't your highest character fellows.

And if the Petrino thing could've been possible to keep quiet, Petrino would still be the head coach at Arkansas.

You also played us in our 2 worst years since the start of the millenium. I find that to be a bit lucky.

As a UT fan, Auburn can have him. He does have a history as a liar and a quitter. I'll take my chances with someone who doesn't have that on their resume.

If he will cheat on his wife, he will cheat on the NCAA.

Well, it IS the SEC. He has to cheat a little just to keep up.

If someone would lie to his boss and lie to the NCAA, he will cheat on his wife.

Does it work that way too?

It could. Some people take vows seriously. Some don't.

I'd generally expect most folks to take the vows to their spouses more seriously than vows to their employers.
