On the SEC Coaching Hot Seat: 2025 Version

Every year we’ve put out our hot-seat list for 2025. Usually, there’s Auburn at the top and everywhere else just sitting there. However with NIL, schools would rather pay money on a wide receiver than they would giving a coach paid vay-cay. But with no further ado, here’s our 16 LET’S GET WORRIED.  Sam Pittman (Arkansas): It’s not a matter of ‘if’, it’s a matter of ‘when’. The schedule is year is horrific for him, with games against Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Texas, LSU and Texas A&M. Our prediction is that Eli Drinkwitz will kick him when he’s down on the last day of the season.  Billy Napier (Florida): Hugely under-pressure last year, the Gators played well down the stretch,

It’s been a long time….

Hey all, It’s been way too long. I haven’t written because college football has been way, way too frustrating at the moment. The NIL disease that rampaged through the college basketball arena has hit college football even worse. I don’t know who’s going to play for whom after one year, because loyalty isn’t earned, it’s by checkbook. I know where this is going. It won’t just be the guys fuming at the WR who they gave $50,000 to in a brown bag in the local Buc-ees, it’ll be thousands of people fuming at the WR who cost the group $3 million to go from Miami to Texas. I know where this is going, because the transfer portal has already given

If your SEC Coaches were one big frat

Just heard from the SEC: “The coaches aren’t just a group of head coaches, they are a fraternity”. In our mind, they’ve gotta be SAEs, because they’ve got a ton of money and attract the Rock-Hunters. But we might be wrong. Kirby Smart: ‘The Prez’ has got the SEC hairdo, is slightly overweight, and can’t get enough of his visor. Doesn’t care what his guys do with their cars. After a few beers he can get belligerent and wants to fight everyone. But he wins. And that’s what this lot of SAEs care about. Barks at people. Eli Drinkwitz: ‘Smirky’ causes most of the crap and runs away having caused an almighty explosion. He’s dangerous because everyone likes his humor

AP Poll, ESPN Polls are out: Where SEC teams stand

First of all, the SEC could get four in the Play-Off (Georgia, Texas, Tennessee and one of Alabama, Ole Miss and South Carolina), but it’s unlikely. But the SEC Championship is set: Georgia v Texas in Atlanta. The AP Poll has made everything really interesting for SEC teams. We’ll keep you updated with the Play-Off Committee’s thoughts on Tuesday. Oh, and we think the SEC Championship Game is a waste of time. All the game is going to give us is injuries.  And both sets of fans — while there is certainly going to be a massive boost to their egos by winning the conference — would rather have a week (or two) off before the play-offs.  TEAMS DEFINITELY IN

A BRIEF Thanksgiving Football Preview

OK, we’re writing this at the opening salvo of The Egg Bowl (still 0-0), and the notion of ‘we need to get this done earlier this week’ got thrown to the layby because of the Thanksgiving break and two toddlers who refused to sleep. Anyway, we’re going high-speed for all the games this week. FRIDAY We’ve covered the Ole Miss v Mississippi State game and why we’re watching it, so there’s little point in a preview. Sorry, Lane.  GEORGIA TECH AT NO.7 GEORGIA (-17.5) Why should you be interested? Georgia’s very much in a play-off hunt. Otherwise, we expect Georgia – if they have a comfortable lead by the fourth quarter – to take their pedal off the medal to
