Just rubbin' salt in the wound now, aren'tcha, AB?

Although that picture of Beamer on there is one of the most emotionally accurate photographs I've ever seen.

Yeah, but it needs to be called out. Averaging 10 penalties a game is BAD.

Our 2008 team looked great!

Andy, I look forward to seeing your write-up based on interviews tonight. I'm hoping to get some detail on what the heck is going on with those illegal substitutions. Is this the kind of info you think the coaches will tell you about in detail? Or will it just be a bunch of coachspeak? I'm really curious, just from a football administration standpoint, of how that all works. My assumption is that Loeffler calls the play based on field position, situation, etc. and relays down to the assistants on the sideline, like Shane and Moorehead, who get the position groups to send out the right guys. Is this the right view? Do you think the coaches will provide any insight on this level for a frustrated fanbase?

UGH! 4 games & this team continues to make the same stupid mistakes , come on coaches Get with it , get in the game. The next player called for an illegal block in the back should sit for a week. This is inexcusable and has gone on for years on most returns.

To be fair, this seems to happen on more than 50% of returns both in the NCAA and NFL.

Well at least we have a chance of setting some kind of record! ;)

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

Maybe so , I do not know the statistics , however our special teams are supposed to be " SPECIAL" . BEAMER BALL!

We always said we wanted to be highly ranked.....

I wouldn't mind drawing a few offensive pass interference calls, if it cut down on our turnovers.
