Shane is embarrassing in this game

You mean like a coach that cries in post game presser? Maybe you meant sensitive coach.
How can you teach your team to stay focused and in the moment when you can’t do it yourself? He was played and lost control. Teaching moment for him, hope it makes him better down the road.
So you’re the board moderator huh? Telling people what is Stupid and how they should say it? Comical. Anon is a tater fan…he understood the post I bet. So taunting a rival who happens to be the champ of their conference, whom we beat is off base…..got it.
Were you there? Not even close. Also Dabo would never pull some **** like Bielema did. It was classless and the reaction was justified.. they played a childish game of ref management and rule gaming. I guess its legal, but I noticed in multiple games that not once did a defensive substitution affect the play clock the way it did in our game. It was ridiculous.
Didn't help that your star safety tapped out without notice.. the whole game was a mess. Not on Beamer.
Their coach wasn't talking about the substitutions. In his post game, he said he was mimicking the kickoff receiver's signal. The one we used to try and trick them in the lateral kickoff return.
He felt we violated some "unwritten" rule, which means it's not really a rule.
When he said unwritten he really meant he wasn’t aware of it so he almost got caught off guard.
Does anyone think it’s ironic that the same people that sit back and judge Beamer for emotion and passion as being like a child, are the same ones who praise people like Bruce Pearl, and Jim Valvano. You can’t have it both ways people. And if anyone here thinks Nick Saban was stoic on the sidelines, then they never really watched much football. Do any of you ever watch the NFL coaches?
It’s always the ones basically looking for anything negative. The only negative from that game is that we lost, end of story. Players opting out is on them and they are not kids, they are grown men playing for money so any criticism or lack there of is warranted

There is certainly a group that will always judge harshly, just like there's a group that will never see any fault.
But I think we're kidding ourselves if we don't think we'd be laughing our assess off if he was the opposing coach in our bowl.
Can't prove a hypothetical though. I know we made a lot of fun for a certain coach having a "get back guy", although that was continual.
I still think it was more than a little put on, maybe even by both coaches to fire up the teams.

He certainly gives a damn, but he is also overly sensitive and Kiffin and Bielema played into it beautifully. I'm sure Stepp gave Bielema pointers on Shane's psyche as well.
I love Shane and have from before the beginning but he needs to get past the bald-faced insecurity and saying way too much with a microphone in his face.
Less is more. It's great to have a chip on your shoulder, not great when you show it all the time.
Of course I’m not a board mod. But that argument was as dumb as our fans saying we won the ACC championship. That’s the same as N Illinois fans claiming the SEC championship since ND beat UGA and NIU beat ND.
I respectfully disagree, I think any competitor would be upset that the refs are not implementing a rule that’s in place to make it fair for SC. We’ve been getting hosed all season and sometimes, enough is enough.
