Nico is money. And as for the rest, I’m just going to subscribe to the “if you can’t say anything nice…” rule here. I have my reasons. It’s still Bama Week After Party up in hur and I won’t sully that unless I’m pressed.

There's no real reason to put Tillman out there this week. The risks outweigh the benefits. We have plenty of firepower to win this game without him. Why put him out there and risk reaggravating the injury against an opponent you don't need him for? Better to save him for KY and the back half of the schedule.

What the Bama defender did is a penalty. You're not allowed to run and jump on or use your hands to push off the OL to hurdle them to get to the kicker. Should have been a flag thrown that we decline or accept if he did block it. But the refs were cheating in our favor, lol. Could have called 5-10 more penalties against Bama in that game. Also could have called 2-3 more against us and definitely should have called one less....the PI in the endzone. Still don't get how the ref didn't see the Bama WR throw our DB down. He had a great view of the WR's arm dragging our DB down by the back of his uniform. We wouldn't have even needed the FG if that gets called correctly.

Overall, refs were pretty fair and let them play unless the penalty was obvious. Bama fans just can't face reality that they are only good this year, not dominant and got beat by the better team/coaches that day. All the blame is for the refs, SEC office and Golding. No criticism for Saban's late game plan, Gibbs drop, their WR's drops, their undisciplined play, etc. It's hilarious because they are wasting the best QB they have ever had. At least most UT fans are savvy enough to know when we get hosed vs. when we make mistakes or just get beat by a better team. I love knowing that it will be a rare thing for UT to be outcoached moving forward under Heupel....maybe out-talented but that won't continue for much longer either and great playcalling/coaching will find ways to overcome that a good percent of the time.

The Finebaum show (which I never normally watch) was funny as hell but also pathetically sad on Monday. A bunch of pissed off Harvey Updyke's calling in blaming refs, making threats and ready to fight. Their fans are so out of touch with reality....even wanting to fight each other. I love the South but most of the callers on that show are an exact representation of why Southerners get stereotyped as uneducated rednecks. It's cringeworthy.

That’s not a penalty…. The defender was within 1 yard of the LOS…. The rule is for defenders behind the line that leap over the line or uses a teammate to propel themselves upward.

My problem is that idiots are everywhere in every strata. In my opinion a highly educated f'n idiot is even worse. You know them, I know them..they are the pretentious aholes running our way of life into the ground, and they are too stupid to know it...because they know-it-all.

Give me a good ol boy or girl drunk redneck over that garbage any f'n day.

Now, I'm kinda wondering if I should consider this as a home business. I can't do a whole lot right now since I'm stuck being a caregiver but designer scrubs IS something I could do and sometimes it's the strangest ideas that lead you to success... It's at least worth a late night thought.

I would invest in that...it is a brilliant idea.

I didn't really know. I was a HB guy, but I just finally watched a lot of vids of Hooker and saw the latent ability. At that point I had an idea, but I still didn't understand how great Heupel was with QBs. Realizing that as the year went on is why I have changed my stance on Milton so much.

Milton has Heisman ability in spades...if anybody can get that out of him, it is Josh Heupel.

I own my misunderstanding of his path since he became a HC. The types he coached up as an OC are maybe not 180’s from the dual threats he recruits now but at least 90 degrees. In retrospect, I wonder how vigorously he recruited Ty Simpson and just how many letters went out to Arch Manning.

F'n Akron..🤬 we do need to get him on the field so he can hurry up and get back to reminding everyone how good he is and maybe play so great that he can make back up the money those stupid f'ers could have caused him to lose in the draft.
