    All in all, I thought he did pretty well.

    I watched Alabama try and replace Paul "Bear" Bryant....a legend and an institution, like JoePa, who will never be duplicated. It was rough sledding for both the program and the fan-base....but Bryant left on his own accord.....so, yeah, the Penn State thing is going to be the worst situation that a new coach could experience. The only example that would be even remotely similar....legendary coach forced out because of unacceptable actions....would be Earle Bruce following Woody Hayes at Ohio State.

    I didn't see anything from Murphy but I could have easily missed it. I just think they could have gotten someone that has more experience in the college level and everything else I said. I don't think they had a big pool of candidates but money talks and I think they could have gone with more experience. I am not completely opposed to this, I know next to nothing about the guy and I will obviously support him, I just find it strange.

    11:30 press conference should be interesting. Definitely a really difficult situation.

    i think lavar, short, and the others should shut up though. them saying they're "done" with psu is stupid and certainly isn't helping the situation...or recruiting for that matter.

    speaking of recruiting...did you see that that top safety recruit commit to alabama over lsu on live tv the other night? his mom was sitting right next to him and basically ripped her son for not choosing lsu. what a fucking bitch.

    Missed this the other day, Jeags. Was too wrapped up in the press conference I guess. I hear you, I wish they would have toned to down a bit, definitely did not help the situation at all. Sounds like people are at least beginning to give him a chance though, which is good news. In addition to Johnson, he's keeping Vanderlinden, which is great news and the strength coach. There are plenty of rumors out there today that Ralph Friedgen will be the offensive coordinator, I'll believe it when I see it but that would be a great addition. And Ted Roof, who I am not really familiar with as the d coordinator.

    I didn't see that. That's hilarious.

    after the terrible nfl 'playoff' games I am really looking forward to watching some real football tonight.

    I think this is going to be an all time classic game

    I think there were 35. Around 25 of them have been good.

    Like the SEC or not, I don't think you can argue that bama/lsu are the two best teams.

    Which is the best conference in college football. Easily.

    you seriously don't think bama/lsu are the two best teams??

    I think arkansas was the third best team in the country

    I'm not one to slurp the SEC either.

    Can LSU still win the national championship trophy if they lose?

    it isn't that, it's just that they played each other already...bama lost...not a fan of 2 teams from the same conference playing each other in the championship...much rather have seen okla st or oregon play lsu

    lsu already beat oregon

    I think it should be the two best teams. The BCS clearly got that right.

    OK st would have gotten demolished by either of these teams. They lost to a horrendous iowa st team.

    But that was determined by a playoff format. This is just a pre-determined game. If the AP picks LSU over Bama, would it upset the BCS "formula"?
