I don't remember who posts what most of the time. I do remember that I said it wasn't that far-fetched, though. Not that I thought we would have a 3-game lead. And hell, it's still not all that far-fetched. Here's what would need to happen:
Ark lose at Kentucky - Pretty safe bet.
Ark to lose at Bama - I'd say 40% chance.
MSU win at USC - Again, about 40% chance.
MSU win at home vs. Auburn - Pretty safe bet.

that said we'd go 2-4 in the 6 games after starting 4-0, and we actually went 4-2? Oh, that was you.
but I don't think anyone that said Auburn would give us trouble should be starting posts making fun of anyone elses predictions.
Just off the top of my head:
1) Alabama will beat us at Tuscaloosa
2) Auburn will be a bad matchup for us at Auburn
3) We will be lucky to go 2-4 over the next 6 games (Actual record 4-2)
4) John Brady was a good coach
5) Last but not least, when I posted at the start of the SEC season that I thought we would go 11-5, his response? "Good luck with that one, Hillary".

I think Coach also said:
1. "He invented the internet"
2. "Communism will never fall"
3. "Ali will never beat Frazier"
4. "Buy Worldcom stock while it is only $50 a share"
5. "Enron is a great company"
6. "Jim Baker is a true man of God"
7. "Bobby shot J.R."
8. "Pam Anderson's boobs are real"
9. "It's just a rash baby don't worry about it"
10. "Brokeback Mountain is a great western"

prediction-wise. But over the last 4 years I have also had some pretty damn good ones.
And I thought we proved with the actual numbers that Brady and Ricky had almost the exact same numbers the last 10 years. And many of you state Ricky is a good coach, so therefore how can Brady be a bad one?
Saying he wasnt as consistent would be correct, but you cant really honestly say he was a bad coach

And even the predictions you missed, you really thought the opposite would happen...so technically, you haven't missed in nearly four years!!! Congrats!!
on that same note if their numbers are even how can you say Brady is a good coach and Stans is a bad one?
But you've stated that the postseason is the only true judge of a coach and so far Rick hasn't managed to make it past the first weekend.
You still don't get it, do you? It's not being wrong in predictions, everyone is wrong at least a little. It's a combination of your unwillingness to admit when you are wrong and your arrogance and glee when you can **** on someone else's predictions, especially when yours are way off anyway. Case in point, ripping someone for suggesting we would be up by 3 games at the end of February when you had predicted that we would go 2-4 through a stretch this season when we actually went 4-2.
I never said it was the only measure, but it is by far the most important.
An example- Pete Carrill at Princeton. Had a very good career as a coach in the Ivy League. What is he always remembered for? Beating UCLA and making a Sweet 16. That run validated his entire career is changed the way the man was viewed.
when did Pete Carril make a sweet 16? He is known for something that never happened? Something that never happened validated his entire career?
I know everyone already knows this, but...you sir, are a big idiot.
Pete Carril's post season history:
1969, loss in first round
1976, loss in first round
1977, loss in first round
1981, loss in first round
1983, loss in second round
1984, loss in first round
1989, loss in first round
1990, loss in first round
1991, loss in first round
1992, loss in first round
1996, loss in second round
edit: I misspelled Pete Carril's name

The man made 11 trips to the NCAAs and his offense is still run in college basketball today. Those are the things he is remembered for, his offense and all of his wins. He isn't remembered for doing things in the NCAAs.
that was the 2nd round...I totally dropped the ball on that one.
But the point is still the same. Making the 2nd round at Princeton is equal to us any another power conference school making a Sweet 16. They are just overmatched talentwise and have no business beating a power school. Therefore, it changed the way the man is viewed when he pulled a monumental upset in the Tourney

That's because they are showing clips of classic upsets in the NCAA Tourney. They also show Valpo over Ole Miss. Does that mean that Valpo's coach is remembered alongside Carril?
So they mention one game over the big thing he brought to college basketball, his offense? Or even over all this wins and trips to the Tourney? I highly doubt that.
But, but, but that's what Carrill is remembered for. I find it funny that Peaches praises Carrill for making it to the second round and bitches at Stans for doing the same thing. And he can say what he wants about it being a small school, but small schools have made it past the second round before with coaches far less remembered than Carrill.
BUMP....this needs to be pinned to the top until March 1st. Or at the very least, bumped every 15 minutes to keep it at the top.
