Well, control of the SEC East doesn’t come easy, but holy crap that was sort of more exciting that it ever should have been. The Spurrier/Fulmer saga continues, and ‘ole Steve O almost did it again against our beloved coach, but you know what? Halloween weekend, of course the Great Pumpkin reigns supreme!
In a game that came down to special teams, freakin’ cool as ice Daniel Lincoln, on the field to kick a field goal, SMILING, decides it’s a good idea to shank the first kick, but knew he’d have a chance to get better stats with a kick from further back.
Iceman fears no kick. Iceman likes the longer stat anyway!
On the other side of the coin was Ryan Succup, who at one time was basically considered automatic, slicing the ball further to the right than that time I tried hitting my tee shot from off of Don’s tiny junk.
The one person who was the most excited/relieved/happy was our very own Coach Fulmer. The greatest coach of all time, and completely unrelated, the greatest blog of all time named after a body part. Hmm, did I overreach there? Nah.
The Volunteers remain unbeaten at home this season, and actually now control their own destiny in the East. Georgia was able to upend the “Greatest one two three loss team in the world!!!1!!one!!” in the form of the Gators, giving all but Georgia and Tennessee 2 losses in the East, with Tennessee owning the tiebreak. Interesting developments indeed.
Happy Halloween! Eat lots of candy, and may all your bellies be rotund! Oh yeah, and Suck It Spurrier! WVU Sucks!

Great post! What a miracle….I think I had a couple heat attacks tonight watching that game. Or maybe it was some bad gas. Regardless it was a bit on the stressful side.
i think it was my fault we almost lost…i was eating throughout the first half, and i got full, so i didn’t eat again til the end of the game, when we finally started scoring again. i should probably eat during the whole game next time
I’ve never felt so dissatisfied with a victory like last night. I’ll still take the win but it was UGLY out there.
Y’know Lincoln kinda looks a little like Val Kilmer in that picture…
or casey clausen…
HAHAHA!! WV does suck!!
Ask Georgia if WVU sucks. The Mounties beat the Dawgs with a horrible defense 2 years ago in the Sugar Bowl. Since then, WVU’s defense has vastly improved. And correct me if I’m wrong (but you won’t be correcting me, because I’m right), the Big East was undefeated in bowl games last year.
Perhaps the SEC should schedule more games with the Big East in the future. The SEC talks a big game, let’s see if they can back it up by scheduling games against Big East teams.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but i’m not. UK beat Louisville. So that 1-1 this year, even with the Big East tring to schedule weaker SEC teams.
2 year ago? Who cares, Are they even the same team, is even half of that team still play at UGA. Last year we were good, whatever. You don’t want more SEC v. Big East matchups. It wouldn’t work out for the Big East.
How good is WV going to be when White and Slaton are gone?
Since we are talking about the past how many National Championships has WV won? NICE.
ah, can you smell the conference flame wars in the air? granted I started it, but it’s still funny.
Speaking of the SEC scheduling more big east teams, they would, except even if every big east team scheduled an SEC team, there’d still be FOUR… count em.. FOUR SEC teams that wouldn’t have anyone to play.
Not only that, the way it’s going, ELEVEN out of the twelve teams could become bowl eligible by season’s end. that’s 3 more teams than the entire big east conference. suck it.
Wow jon. Just wow. Love the comment
I’m surprised a site dedicated to a team in the best football conference would even waste their time mentioning WVU. Thanks for the respect!
