I noticed this- Dan Mullen's teams either roll over opponents or quit against them. The only gut-check game I've seen State win since Mullen's been here was the 2010 Florida game.
Dan Mullen has won only one gut-check game since he's been here....
- Thread starter HammerOfTheDogs
- Start date
Um, two games this season stand out to me- Tennessee and Troy. You didn't qualify your statement as good competition. But saying we either roll or quit in every game is just wrong. We've had close games where we've fought. Every season, win or lose, we have close, well fought games.
OM 2009
They were better than us that year. I know everyone dismisses our wins over OM but that was a good win. He came close vs Cam's Auburn, LSU 09, and Ark '10. You can say hasn't won those gut check games. However in those three, we fought until the end.
Really, I would say Ark last year and OM this year are the only games I can recall off the top of my head that it SEEMED we packed it in before the last whistle.

Are you really going to bring up the game
Where we quit with a minute and a half left and settled for OT?
