It has been like that over there since September. The rest of the SEC fans like to rile up the corndogs with a post that just says Troy.

He was terrible. Please hire him. He did okay at Alabama A blind mule could do "okay" at Alabama. Especially 2012-2013 while he was there. He inherited AJ McCarron, Eddie Lacy, TJ Yeldon, Amari Cooper, Kevin Norwood, and an OL that was one of the best in the country. Beastly running backs, a QB that could throw, unlike the guy they have now, and good receivers.

Someone give me an update on possible dates and times. I don't care about opponents just yet, just trying to gauge if any are possibilities.

Last game of the year too. Up until then, the only losses were to ranked SEC teams back in the LB days of take our paycheck and beating.
My wife was 6 months pregnant and didn't want to go to another game. My dad met me there. Omar almost led the comeback. Just looked it up, and it was 28-12 FAU going into the 4th. Good guys scored 20 but the bad guys scored 10. Got down near the red zone but couldn't make the plays to end it.

They need to sell these decals. Or put them on a magnet. Would look sweet on the doors of my Jeep.

3 PM actually looks good for me making it. We'll be about 40 minutes south of Troy for Thanksgiving anyway, and already planning on coming home Friday. Which takes us right up 231. I just have to tell my daughter I'm taking her and then the wife won't be able to say no.

Legion Field should be available now that they don't play the AHSAA Super 7 there anymore. The only real outliers from a geographical perspective are UTSA and Coastal Carolina. Maybe App State, but they tend to travel well. I know it is a dump, and I agree with making it a home game for the best team, but if they ever do go neutral site, Birmingham has the infrastructure to support it with some nice hotels downtown for the teams, and plenty in the suburbs for traveling fans. And talks have ramped up again about a new stadium at the BJCC site.

Need to get people that care to serve others at the concessions..... Just saying. Majority are just there for the check and free food when they don't sell it all
Is that why the home side main concessions were out of burgers prior to kickoff? I admit, we messed up and didn't bring food to the tailgate we were going to, but we thought we could grab some burgers inside. Had to settle for the lukewarm hot dog.

My hot dog wasn't cold. It wasn't hot either, but warm enough to be edible. Now if we want to talk timing at concessions, that is a valid complaint. It shouldn't take 3 minutes to give me a pretzel and nachos after I paid for them. The main reason I ordered those two items at halftime is that they should be ready and just hand them over. Beer line was moving though. Only they were out of Bud Light and I had to settle for an aluminum bottle of something.

Does the towel have to be a clean one? A few blood stains never hurt anyone.

I avoided the resident LSU fan at work today. I predicted the win to him on Friday and he laughed. He's bigger than me and knows kung fu. I didn't say anything to the resident LSU fan at work. It was her birthday this weekend too, didn't want to make it any worse.

Still a few weeks before the playoff rankings come out. Time to creep up into top 15.

Cornelious is a class act and will be the hardest working assistant we have. The young man can recruit the moma's and is a huge asset to our program. Good move Neal Brown. I spoke with his mother at a restaurant in Birmingham a few months back. We were having breakfast, and I guess she saw my Troy hat. Told me her son had played there. I asked who, and she told me. We had a nice little conversation about Troy and how much I had liked watching him play.

Lol there's no way Troy hires a Fired Alabama coach who never played a down of football at Alabama cause he was fired for using university funds to pay for strippers in destin! Seriously yall!? Strippers in Pensacola. There are no strip clubs in Destin. I thought there was one in Ft Walton? I remember we used to eat at this restaurant over in Ft Walton called the Summer House. They ended up closing down in their old location and reopened in a new manufactured building right around the bridge. I distinctly remember us trying it out, but it wasn't the same as in the old place. What I also remember is the strip club across the parking lot, and the employees getting out of ragged out Mustangs and Camaros walking in to their evening shift.

I was listening to the Matt and Scott show here on JOX yesterday on my drive home, and apparently missed the caller that mentioned it, but the guys were talking about it afterwards about some rumor of Chizik to Troy. They were joking around, asking if Larry had retired since he's been at Troy forever, but I thought I'd bring it here to see if anyone else heard any rumors.

Nice. Just don't bring in any umbrellas or anything for shade. The rent-a-cop kept badgering me about my umbrella at the last game there two years ago when it kept raining, then sunshine, then rain, then more sunshine, then it felt like the steam room at the downtown YMCA. He came by 3 times to tell me to put it down. I pointed at the 100 others and said when they do, I will. If my wife hadn't been there beside me I might have had some more choice words for him, or given him the chance to use the UAB hospital Emergency room for an umbrellaectomy. We'll be there. I'll be the guy wearing a red Under Armor shirt and an older than dirt Trojans hat. AMEN TO THAT!!! I got the same treatment from him. Tickled the h--- out of me when he walked by soaking wet. Asked him if he didn't wish he had an umbrella! I may bring in my beach umbrella this time. It is like 7-8 feet across. I can shade parts of two rows with it!
