I'll be happy if he gets 2, that would double his total to 4. It's time..

He is 2-21 right now, with his last win back in 2010(UF).

He is 0-19 vs the Top 20..

We might have to go 11-1 to get 2 top 25 wins.

I don't think aTm will be ranked when we play them, and ole miss may not be either.

Well, I agree it's a terrible record, but there's a reason these teams are in the Top 20...cause not many other coaches/teams beat them. How many of LSU, BAMA, AU, and TAMU's total losses are to each other over the past few years? Almost all of them?

The next step for us would be to go 1-4 or 2-3 in these games instead of 0-5. That puts us at 8-4 (good) or 9-3 (which is historically awesome for us).

I'm betting we beat TAMU and AU this year, then set up for Dak's and Chris Jones's final seasons with BAMA, LSU, and OM as home games and a chance at 10 wins.

Lets fire him and hire a no-name replacement and set the program back 4 years.

Why would we have to hire a no-name? We can throw $4MM at a guy, he'd have a new stadium and new football only facility.

I've said this before, but the alternative to Dan Mullen is not Sly Croom.

All of the rankings are from at the time we played them.
Saturday down South did it that way, the USA Today did it that way and I did it that way.

If you want to get Mullen's record vs the Top 25 based on the Final rankings, then have at it..
It won't be much of a difference, imo..

we would be lucky to get two. probability says we get one considering we get 1 every 2 years. he was close a few times but fell short in. gotta get over that hump.

What's your point??

because I obviously just made up the 2009 Final AP polls***

ETA: Not real sure about the "make fun a people"

So what is Mullen's record vs the Final Top 25 polls for his tenure??
I bet it won't be much different than 2-21, which is his record from teams ranked at the time we play them.

So what is Mullens record vs the Top 25 in Final polls?

Did you notice I picked us to lose to OSU and finish 6-6 last year..

reading material. I'd like to see your analysis of these two articles. I'm sure it will be enlightening.

Article 1 (it won't load on my pc)

Article 2

View attachment 1016

SEC’s head coaches vs the Top 25:


  • Alabama, Nick Saban: 50-35 overall, 28-12 current
  • Arkansas, Bret Bielema: 10-20 overall, 0-6 current
  • Auburn, Gus Malzahn: 5-3 overall, 5-2 current
  • Florida, Will Muschamp: 4-11 overall, 4-11 current
  • Georgia, Mark Richt: 34-31 overall, 34-31 current
  • Kentucky, Mark Stoops: 0-5 overall, 0-5 current
  • LSU, Les Miles: 40-31 overall, 37-19 current
  • Mississippi St., Dan Mullen: 2-21, overall, 2-21 current
  • Missouri, Gary Pinkel: 15-37 overall, 15-34 current
  • Ole Miss, Hugh Freeze: 2-8 overall, 2-7 current
  • South Carolina, Steve Spurrier: 62-52-1 overall, 18-23 current
  • Tennessee, Butch Jones: 1-11 career, 1-6 overall
  • Texas A&M, Kevin Sumlin: 8-7 career, 5-6 overall
  • Vanderbilt, Derek Mason: 0-0 career, 0-0 overall

What's there to analyze?
It's a fact that Mullen has underperformed vs the Top 25 compared to the other SEC coaches.
Will he do better this year with DAK at qb? I sure hope so, and 2 or 3 wins vs the Top 25 would be great.
