Number one, you’ve got two ballgames left and a lot of these guys have done a lot of good things these last two years. And it’s easy to dwell on the negative. It’s easy to sit up on the 50-yard line, it’s easy to sit there and say ‘Bad, bad, bad, bad, embarrassing.’ And hey, I was the first one to say it after Saturday. Man, I don’t want to do that. If you think you’re hurting, you oughta just look at the tip of my itsy-bitsy little finger and then go all the way up through my body. I’m sick to my stomach. The Tennessee game, because we planned on winning that game.
Oh, and I still hate Texas.
It’s some guy named Matt.
Thank God.
Why anyone would want to sit/stand in a building with 105,000 Dallas Cowboy fans is beyond my understanding.
Best Deadcast ever?
Drew Magary and Spencer Hall run through the Top 25 college teams.
Most overrated team according to:
- Drew: Ole Miss #8
- Spencer: Oklahoma State #9
I love you guys.
n 2007 the team staged a Billy Donovan night, which mocked the UF basketball coach’s decision to back out of a contractual agreement he made with the Orlando Magic.
Other activities that were bounced around when the team was planning the event included a mock circumcision, which would have been meant to play off of Tebow’s missionary work in the Philippines.
It wasn’t included on Wednesday for obvious reasons.
“We bounced all kinds of ideas around when we thought of the promotion,” Sharp said. “But we wanted to keep it tasteful.”
What?! I have nothing.
(via Deadspin, because I really thought he was making these things up.)
Tim Tebow hurt his non-throwing shoulder in the season opener last year—no, it wasn’t because that was when he carried you—and had to have pain-killing injections before every game.
In the weight room, Tebow wore a blue spandex shirt with an orange flame crawling up the sleeve; everyone else was in gray.

ESPN: The 40 greatest villains in college football, past and present.
25. Houston Nutt — Ole Miss coach, 2008-present
Hated by: Arkansas.
Claim to Infamy: Benched adored true freshman quarterback Mitch Mustain in 2006 despite his 8-0 record as Arkansas’ starter. Engaged in hissy in-fighting with Mustain’s mother, Beck Campbell, provoking statewide dissension between Nutt backers and those championing Mustain and other members of the so-called “Springdale Mafia.” (Springdale High School is where Mustain, coach Gus Malzahn and several other players achieved glory before matriculating to misery in Fayetteville.) Text messages to TV anchor scrutinized and program atmosphere poisoned, Nutt jumped out and landed at SEC West rival Ole Miss. Defeated Razorbacks last season on the way to surprising 9-4 record and Cotton Bowl victory, while Arkansas struggled to 5-7 record.
34. Tim Tebow — Florida quarterback, 2006-present
Hated by: All non-Gators in SEC, plus sizeable pockets of resistance elsewhere.
Claim to Infamy: Too virtuous and too celebrated for many rivals’ tastes. Scripture on eye black construed as religious grandstanding in some corners. Willingness to run over opposing linebackers and/or sever a limb to win does not help his standing with opposing fans. Mainly because he does win with tiresome regularity and irksome wholesomeness.
