Around SBN: Ohio State And Florida Target 2013 Receiver Recruits

University of Alabama Director of Athletics Mal Moore has persuaded his Southeastern Conference peers to ask the league office to make adjustments to the SEC's 2010 football schedule, as well as it's upcoming 10-year release of future schedules, to bring more equity to the number of games each team must play against an opponent coming off an idle week.

Who is Eddie Lacy?

Didn't realize this

Of the eight SEC teams scheduled to play Alabama in 2010, the final six are set to have idle weeks before the game. That includes South Carolina, Ole Miss, Tennessee, LSU, Mississippi State and Auburn.

WTF?

He means Mal walked into the room with Nick Saban by his side, and told those sissy mfers to get their shit together before Saban decides to drop fitty on ’em next season by unleashing Mark and Trent to run apeshit on their pussy bitch asses.

I mean, damn, this shit is getting old. Tennessee, LSU, Auburn, Ole Miss, all sitting back on their bitch asses this year watching us play while they get to sleep in and eat doritos on Sunday morning like some serta fuckin sheep. Ain’t that some BS. I honestly think Saban called Mal about 3am and told him this was some bullshit and that shit better change before there is only 1 AD left in the conference and his name is Nick Saban. Actually, I bet Saban said F it, no bye weeks for anyone and we’ll play all ya’ll banged up and still but a cowboy paul finebaum legend charles from realtown ass whoopin’ on these fools.

Also, does anyone know if that crazy Mfer Eddie Lacy qualified yet?

You play fast, you play strong, you go out there and dominate the guy you play against, and make his ass quit! That's our trademark, that's our MO as a team, aight, that's what people know us as! - Nick Saban, 2008

someone might be able to let us know if he qualified.

I hope so but I don't think we are asking enough.

when you see folks grabbing such an unfair advantage...

it makes you wonder how they have the gall to turn around and call us cheaters.

From their point

of view ganging up on Bama is not cheating.

I will be interesting to see what if anything can and will be done. I’d say the only hope of really getting things changed is that Bama is now bringing in big money to the SEC. We are quickly surplanting UF as the premier team in the league. You want the games to be fair, but your premier team winning helps the entire conference. Your premier team getting beat because other teams have an unfair advantage is not good for business.

I hate the NCAA more than UT & AU combined. At least with UT & AU you got a fighting chance.

I hope we are supplanting UF

But I wouldn’t say Alabama is there yet. Maybe if Bama wins Jan 7 and books another trip…

I usually don't pay attention to stuff like this

but after this season, it was damn near impossible not to see the shit was wrong. After reading the article it seems like things will change…hopefully.

My question is

Does this get picked up by the national media? and does it happen to other schools (powerhouse or otherwise)? My gut guess is yes, but i’d love to see statistics on it.

by crimsonkingsmith on Dec 16, 2009 8:50 AM CST reply actions  

My question is what did that Ed Lacy kid get on his Algebra test?

Was it high enough that he Qualified to enroll at the university or does he have to go to JUCO?

I NEED TO KNOW!!!!!!

36-0

Like AL and FLA...

did to LSU this year. Everyone does it and it does need to be fair.

Doing it to your rivals is one thing...

Everyone doing it to one school is kinda ridiculous

I know my feeble Alabama education may not be as good as yours,

but I’d much rather play against 2 opponents coming off of bye weeks than 6.

I better go return these stolen math textbooks before the ncaa finds out…
