I swear it's like some of you fans are happy with beating weak Sec teams like miss st candy and South Carolina in a down year but we can beat Austin peay and all is okay. I'm tired of it. We are just a horrible team... yes we will go to a bowl but it sucks.
I'm sorry.. but I'm sick of stoops..
- Thread starter bigblue_07_rivals
- Start date
Stoops had to recruit an entirely new team. Thats how pathetic the talent was. His team are Jrs. We have passed the bottom teams. How anyone expects more at this point is beyond me.
We have passed the bottom teams with home field advantage. Next year will tell the real story when you have to go and get some of your wins on the road.
When you cry in every thread it loses its power
They're seniors. If USC, MSU and Missouri were even close to what they normally are then this is a 4 win team. It's taken the worst SEC east in 30+ years to go 6-6. Pathetic. I absolutely can't stand Stoops.
LOL STOOPS will win next week go to the turdpukebowl get a 10 year extension and a 45 million dollar buyout!
No they are Jrs. He put the Sr class together at the last minute with some of Jokers recruits still in it.
The glass is half full. We outplayed the bottom of the league for the first time in a long time.
If this is our ceiling, that's not very good. But it was definitely a step up, if not exactly a leap forward.

We ve passed no one. Next year MSU and USC and we will go to there place. Missouri will be better. This is a crappy sec east and we shoulda done much better pathetic
We're tired of you pumping that sunshine, sunshine

We have kinda beat South Carolina the last three years and once in columbia. That seems like a pass to me. We are 2-1 versus vandy and took a trick play and a pick six to beat us at home last year. We have also beat mizzu the past two seasons and this one on their home field. Seems like we have passed them too. That's at least two schools and K believe three. Do you not remmeber where we were three years ago?
We haven't "passed" the bottom teams. Every game except Missouri was essentially a toss up. The coin just so happened to land in our favor way more than usual this year. Could easily be 3-7.
You can't stand Stoops, hate the team, but you are giving Stoops a win he doesn't have yet.:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
I think some fans just like coaching searches and being excited for the first few years of a new coach. We aren't Kentucky Basketball, we can't hire a coach Cal.
It's puzzling how these schools are going to be back to the top in one year and we're not going to improve at all. Especially considering how small our senior class is.
There comes a point when you have to hold the players accountable!! #51-not good, bench him! We have receivers that have dropped passes for 3 years now, bench em!! Our CB, so called all American in the making , cannot cover in a zone situation, bench him!
We have players on the sidelines that could perform better if given a chance.
As I said before, Stoops downfall will be his loyalty to certain coaches and players that repeatedly cost us a chance to win.

So, take your football rah-rah to another team where you will surely be happier, less stressed and live happier.
Without being a smartass I think the reasoning is this: We have a QB that plays his guts out but he's not an SEC caliber player. Our running backs are tremendous but teams know that's all we've got and that success will be much more difficult next year. We have zero return team, zero punter, and our receivers can't catch the ball on the rare occasion it somehow gets to them. Barker appears questionable to ever play again and our other QB's have never taken a snap in a college game if I'm not mistaken. You!re extremely optimistic. I truly hope you're right but history says you're not.
OP, you started the thread and you make it like others were saying it's ok we lost because we should beat Austin Peay. u need to change the tone and wording of the thread.
I'll try to respond without the immature insult.
You don't think any of those other SEC teams have holes? Or can those all be filled in a year and we're the only ones without? Are all of those other fanbases just happy because they know this is a one year dip? With all of those deficiencies we still were able to beat Mizzou, SC, MSU, and Vandy. They're not the only ones recruiting, you know.
Go coach this team and get us wins. Oh and look at your self whining about the whiner's.
Who do you think will compete for our QB position next year ? Do we have anyone other than Stephen Johnson that's ever taken a snap in a college game ? Not being a jerk, just asking.
I see where you're coming from man, but it's going to be hard to change the mindset of many of our fans..they've seen so much bad football that they don't realize there's more out there than 6-6 and a bowl game..it's the biggest reason we'll be a .500 team two decades from now..our fans and our administration are ecstatic with mediocrity and gang up on anyone that wants to be slightly better than mediocre..it's hard to argue with the "next year" argument because there's no real counter argument to say otherwise and by the time "next year" rolls around we've already forgotten about the excuses we used the previous year...6-6 or 7-5 is our ultimate goal as a fanbase and because of that it's the best we'll ever get..we're not allowed to ask for more because as the poster's on here remind us: "it takes time" and "next year will be better"..and my personal favorite: "We're bringing in better recruits" as if recruiting rankings alone win you games when you have coaches that have shown little ability to develop players

Yet we are 5-5 and will become bowl eligible next week. That's a step in the right direction - I don't care what any of you say.
Offensively we bring back 4 starting OL and our starting Center next year (Stallings) will have had a ton of playing experience at OG this year. And we bring back all of our skill players except Timmons.
We still have 2 games left this year. 7-5 is still possible. (6-6 is guaranteed). Watching UL tonight doesn't convince me they are all world like most make them to be.
At the end of the day, none of you negative nellies had us going to a bowl after 2 games. Instead, you all were too concerned about who our next coach was going to be. This team went to work and did what they had to do, with all of their limitations, to get bowl eligible. I don't care who you are, the team and the coaches deserve some credit.
There is a very good chance we lose at Vandy, USC, MSU and UGA next year. Then we have UF and UT at home, which are presumable loses. Not including we have to go to USM to start off the season and who knows what could happen there. Then if we limp into the end of the with UL coming, it could be very ugly. Like finishing 4-8. I'm just saying. I believe they've only won 2 road games in four years...
Where has this entitlement come from in our fan base?
We don't beat any SEC school enough to scoff at going 4-4 in conference.
This coaching staff has done more than enough to earn some respect from the fans.
