Internet message boards…love ‘em or hate ‘em, they’re a significant part of the fan/college sports relationship.  These open forums allow fans from all walks of life and all geographies to congregate and discuss the teams they love—and the ones they love to hate. Countless rumors—most unfounded and false, certainly, but some proven to be true—have spawned on these boards. It’s always interesting to go from board to board to get a feel for the general mood of the fan bases.  With SEC football less than four weeks away, the boards are officially rocking and rolling and whatnot. While reading message boards this weekend, I noticed several Arkansas posters on the Ole Miss board badmouthing Houston Nutt.  These same fans were touting the skills of Bobby Petrino. Sometimes, you really can’t see the forest for the trees. Three years ago, Ole Miss fired David Cutcliffe and hired Ed Orgeron.  Rebel faithful defended the hire, citing EOr being Pete Carroll’s “right hand man” at USC.  Bring up the fact that he’d never even been a coordinator, and prepare to be told that didn’t matter. Orgeron spoke (or whatever you called those gravelly noises coming from his mouth), and Rebel fans ate it up.  Sugar Bowl wins were coming.  Or not. Orgeron won three SEC games in three years and was fired.  Everyone could see it coming except for Ole Miss. Arkansas is a similar situation this year with Bobby Petrino.  While Petrino is certainly light years abo ...

Arkansas Head Coach Bobby Petrino “We’ve been spending the last afternoon and all morning on game planning for Louisiana Monroe. They had a tough game with Auburn. They came out and on the first play of the game tried to throw the ball and the quarterback got hit in the back and fumbled, they picked it u and ran it into the end zone so they got behind. They did move the ball well earlier in the game our concerns is that their quarterback is very athletic and has lots of experience has the ability to run out of the pocket so we have to do a good job of maintaining our rush lanes and containing him. ...

funny article about the SEC ---Quote--- Oh my Lord, I've seen the future of college football and it's bright red. It has seniors who play like seniors and freshmen who play like seniors and the most infuriatingly great coach in the country. His name is Nick Saban. His team's name is Alabama. And that's the future. Might even be the present. ---End Quote--- ---Quote--- And if there is a God in heaven, new Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino will have the best 3-9 team in college football history. ---End Quote--- http://www.sportsline.com/columns/story/10955400/2 ...

Matt Ryan will take his first tentative steps as a pro on Saturday, when the No. 3 overall pick in the 2008 Draft leads the Atlanta Falcons into battle against the visiting Detroit Lions at the Georgia Dome. Ryan, formerly a three-year starter at Boston College, was handed the reins of the Atlanta offense by new head coach Mike Smith following the third week of the preseason. His selection in April was heralded as a page-turning event for an organization that last year suffered through the turmoil of the Michael Vick dogfighting controversy, then was forced to deal with the abrupt resignation of head coach Bobby Petrino with three games left in the 2007 campaign. After losing two of their final three contests to finish at 4-12, the Falcons and owner Arthur Blank hired a new general manager, ex-Patriots personnel assistant Thomas Dimitroff, following a brief flirtation with Bill Parcells. Weeks later, the team tabbed former Jaguars defensive coordinator Smith as its next head coach, and the new brain trust of the organization promptly began turning over a roster clearly in need of an overhaul. Veterans like Warrick Dunn, Alge Crumpler, Rod Coleman and DeAngelo Hall were shipped out, while Ryan and five more players selected in the first three rounds of the Draft helped usher in a youth movement. In addition, brought in to fill the running back void left by Dunn was former Chargers running back Michael Turner, who will be a starter ...
