I like beating the Bears just as much as anybody, but it's time for Mullen to take the next step in 2014.

2009
L LSU #7
L GT #25
L UF #1
L Bama #2
W Ole Miss #25

2010
L Auburn #21
L LSU #15
W UF #22
L Bama #12
L Ark #13

2011
L LSU #3
L SC #15
L Bama #3
L Arky #6

2012
L Bama #1
L A&M #16
L LSU #7
L NW #20

2013
L OSU #13
L LSU #10
L SC #14
L A&M #15
L Bama #1

And, Mullen hasn't beaten a Top 25 team since 2010, that's 3 years ago...
2010 (win over #22 UF)

He is 2-21 vs Top 25 teams.


It's Time.... Will 2014 be the year? I hope so, or Mullen might need to go...

4 bowl games in a row. Never happened before. if we go 7 and 5 or 8 and 4 next year and don't beat a top 20 team its o.k.

7 should be the minimum though. I wouldn't fire him at 6 and 6, but the same expectations if we won less than 6 this year would be made with winning less than 7 next year.

What was crooms record against top 25? If it was better than Mullen I suppose we should just rehire him

Let's make a deal

If we lose to a top 20 team, you'll stop posting this.

If we win to a top 20 team, you'll stop posting this.

I'm curious, what is the combined record of the teams we lost to in that 0-19 stretch, taking out losses to each other?

(Yes, I could look it up but I'm at work, on my phone and lazy.)

FW99 still 0 for 7,468 on having an original thought or making a decent post

Is it even harder for you now tht 34 isn't around to feed you lines to repeat?

Speaking of 34, I've been M.I.A. for a long while and came back a few days ago and noticed he hasn't been here. Where he be at?

I do want to see this. If nobody else does, I'll look it up when I get home tonight.

Interesante

I'm trying to imagine what he did to get banned considering how long he's been on here. Those events archived or anything?

I don't want to start another argument but what are the rankings he is using and when?

Man. Even on his way out, he knows how to cause a splash. That was gold. It was even funnier that HD6 was the one that swung the ban hammer. I bet he felt some jubilation doing that.

Ehh. He wasn't saying it to be a smartass, he really was leaving. I just locked the door (as much as you can anyway) after he took off.

I am using the rankings at time we played the team per ESPN/Coaches Poll...

Yes, I am happy with our win over the Bears and the fact that we are going to our 4th straight bowl game under Dan.
Our defense really improved thought this season, just wish if hadn't taken 9 games.
I am optimistic that next season we will get that "Signature Win" over a Top 20 team. Time will tell..

After-all, in 1980 #1 Bama went down to our Dawgs 6-3, so it can happen.

Why is this so hard for you?

All that matters is final rank. Rank at the time is irrelevant. Unless you honestly think Auburn and LSU should get credit for beating us in 2011 but not in 2010.

You forgot a few disciples, but I figure they will either sink or swim.

I am curious, how many times can you make the same poast over and over again without banishment?

Ok. Using your rankings, which is a whole other discussion, here are those numbers:

The overall record of all those teams: 247-51
One Team with 5 losses (FLA '10) W
Three teams with 4 losses (OM '09, LSU '09, A&M '13) W L L
Six teams with 3 losses (All losses)
All the rest 10-2 or better
Record of All SECW teams (except us) since '09: 240-111

I wanted to look up record of all SECW teams since '09 excluding losses to each other, but that is too much work considering someone has probably done it before. If this fit Engie's agenda, I would ask him to look it up. He is good at compiling stats. I'll give him that.

Well Ole Miss has never been to Atlanta and no one remembers when was the last time they made it to Omaha. Wasn't Ole Miss ranked pretty high this year? Too bad they lost to TAM, Alabama, auburn and us. They would have still been ranked.
