Wth happened to Milton? I must have missed that one. This bowl crap has turned into an absolute joke, I kind of feel bad for people going on these bowl trips. I've been to one and it's alot of money to spend on these teams that are a shell of themselves.

This is looking like Notre Dame 2.0, we were 7-5 this year with all these good players actually playing.

I’m in Orlando and win/lose doesn’t define my trip. Taking this little vacation well worth the money win or lose.

Keep in mind anything can happen. Remember the 1978 Orange bowl. Lou Holtz suspended a couple of players who represented 78% of Arkansas' points and OU was favored by 24 points. OU got killed 31-6, ruining their chance for a national championship.

Welp. We know how that movie plays out. On the flip side this is a glorified exhibition and I’m all about getting the “next man in” as many reps as possible so it’s not a lose-lose at least.
So now no Newell,Rose,Young, maybe Hutch, no Hall. In CMC I trust.

Holtz did that with Notre Dame as well. Sent both starting RB's home for missing or being very late to a team meeting. Notre Dame won anyway.

We will see what happens but Roses mom said he was going to play.

See…I trust this guy more than the new 247 beat writer. I’m not even kidding. Osen has to earn my trust and he hasn’t been around long enough for that yet.

Also, I was just told Hutchinson looks ready to go to a person who just saw him.

Remember it well as I was living in Arkansas at the time. They sold a lot of 31-6 bumper stickers after that one.
Too bad Larry Lacewell can't get us the Clemson play book like he supposedly did for Sweet Lou.

My favorite Orange Bowl of all time. The look on Switzer's face as the game went on was priceless.

It's more like saying we're going to get blown out by Baylor because we were unlikely to win anyhow and then lost Brockington, Gabe, Kunc, and Conditt. We needed all our guys to deal with the Clemson defense and have a prayer at the game and instead we have nobody
Arrange the deck chairs! We hit the damn iceberg! Skwak! Skwak! This ship is going down!
