All we have are the embers
Hey everyone. We held a 2-hour Campfire® on Thursday night that was well-attended and well-received.
We hosted 303 users this time. Thanks for your support.
BIG UP to the HOTTIES who went the distance: Sensi, Eddie, E-Bro, Kristina, DMiller, JD. I think WEG was there for most of the shindig as well.
It's always nice seeing new members around: philly1, Wilson Tailgate. There were others.

USC is going to blow this one.
All the other fools are still at the campfire, I'm at both.
Too hard to watch the game and campfire at the same time for us old folks!
Automatically got signed out of the campfire and can't get back in. Same for everybody?
Same for me, E Bro
You have to go to chatroll.com to keep campfiring

JD going down!
She broke
No wonder chatroll locked up
Yepp, chatroll bit the dust.
What a slow death that was.
This SC/Ole Miss game is messy. I'm sorta kinda pulling for MS because it will be hard enough to break in to Top 25 without being able to beat top-rated team but...
Catch everyone in the morning.
Garcia is playing scared almost it seems.
Boy that Ole Miss locked down on D.
Needed that bounce.
Ole Miss < Number 4 team in the country win or lose
Anyone got a clue at why LSU is in the top 10?
LSU beat Washington and Washington beat USC...sheesh Steve. ;-)
I was looking at team stats on SECsports.com, LSU and AU are almost identical in every category, offense and defense, against similar competition.
And that one win got Washington to the top 25.
Because that's more substantive than La Tech, MSU or WVU.
LSU, Washington, and USC all got issues.
McCluster got cranked!
USC has QB issues. Any time you have QB issues, you got trouble. I refer you to Auburn 2008 as proof.
The Tenacious Spurriers are not gonna make it easy.
McClester wasn't in the game. Snead got sacked. This is not the #4 team in the country.
Oh, no, Senator Holtz predicted SC would win.
4th and 19. What maroons.
Yeah, but Stanford also beat USC a couple of years ago, then lost 5 of their next 7 to finish 4-8.
Washington could do that too.
See ya Ole Miss.
Washington will be able to say they were ranked in the Top 25 at one time.
I wonder if Auburn will say the same?
Time will tell.
Good-night, Hotties.
Nevah, evah, trust a Nutt.
That ole grey nutt just ain't what he use to be, ain't what he used to be, ain't what he use to be...
Wow, the historically consistent Ole Miss suckiness won out over South Carolina's legendary mediocrity.
Well put Freep
Crap... I was studying for a test... that's more important I guess.
That wasn't exactly a dominating performance by South Carolina. Ole Nutt made plenty of mistakes to help them out.
South Carolina just busted a Nutt
Told ya..
Ole Myth will finish fourth in the west.
I
really, really, really,
really, really, really
don't like Ole Miss.
It's nice when you think a certain way and it ends up true.
Well here I am
Washington may be the best turnaround story in CFB. After last year's most terrible team of all time to putting up a good fight against a good SEC, then beating the best team in theiir conference and being ranked. I'd say they had a super-fantastic offseason.
By the way, have any two coaches ever done more to set back African American college head coaches than Ty Willingham and Sly Croom?
Vintage Nutt, flu or whatever.
I thought Croom did very well, especially in conducting himself in a professional manner and giving his team a chance to win. He is a good coach and a good man.
Big Snacks, No they haven't. Unless you count Saban, I think he's like Bill Clinton as in the first black white football coach or whatever he is. Christlike maybe, shapeshifter, chameleon. Who knows. Crap post on my part, I know.
What Croom lacked in being able to make lemonade with lemons, he made up for in dignity, yes. That doesn't mean anything, though, in an industry where dignity is undervalued.
Dignity, much like stats, is for chumps.
rebels rebels rebels
Sorry I missed. I need to be more vigilent about such things.
HAHAHAH.
If only y'all could've heard these Mississippi fans talking about how if they could only get by Bama, everything would be golden.
Seriously, Bama is all they ever talk about, as being tough competition.
And Auburn was waaaaay down on their totem pole for possible losses. Now they've gotta be just hoping to win 8 or 9.
Croom didn't do any worse than Rockey Felker, who didn't have major NCAA sanctions to deal with. At least Coarch got the Bullies into a bowl game.
On a related note, I recall that one of the main justifications for Bama not to hire Croom was that 'if he didn't succeed and you fired him, you'd be accused of it being racially motivated'.
I don't recall anyone making that claim last year when MSU let him go.
I just want Dyer to announce!
8 or 9? If they play like they did tonight, they'll be lucky to hit up Shreveport or Memphis.
Freep, Bama doesn't have the patience that MSU state has. They would have let him go much sooner and that might have mad a difference.
*made
Been lurking. You guys covered everything very well tonight. Some interesting reads. I didn't have anything to add except 'night y'all.
key word: hoping
if you were prepared to hire croom, you had to be prepared to fire him and bammer could sorely afford that liability and opted for shula and made life good for AU a few more years. at bammer, firing croom is a story. at MSU, not so much.
i think AU wins one of the upcoming sec road games and the other goes down to the wire and could go either way. if AU pulls off both on the road with UK coming in, things get real interesting. if AU gets a split, they'll still be ahead of my expectations going in. UT ARky & OM all look more winnable now than they did two weeks ago. WDE!
Some random musings:
If our benevolent dictator JGT were to ask coaches some questions, what would your question be (on a serious note)
I think SECW isn't really strong this year either. I don't like that, one bit.
And I dislike the 2010 schedule. I've rarely liked the schedule but this one is sucktastic.

While I have dislike for those things, my hate is always for the fighting sabans and the mindless drones that live under his abject tyranny.
I believe that bammer nayshun deserves to be treated like that. Does anyone remember the Spurrier quote about bama / saban?
Late post winner!!!
Yep!

Good Morning all.
Ole Miss - ha
Good Morning Hotties, TGIF!!! And today is the day THT gets his TV. Congratulations. What kind did you get?
Off to work. Everyone have a great War Eagle day.
Please make it 4pm soon....
Good morning all and TFIG!!!!!!!!
Ole Miss was doing what they do. My Bro posted this on the campfire last night, but it went over my head and that was that if you compare Auburn 2003 to Ole Miss 2009, South Carolina (USC) was Auburn's Southern Cal (USC) and he wonders if Vandy will be their Georgia Tech next week? Interesting thought.
Good morning, Hotties! It is Friday and I get to go to AUBURN!!!
Shesaid out of nowhere. Man oh man.
Good Morning, Hotties. I am out for much of the morning so you guys will have to figure out for yourselves whether Mikal is joking. Although don't let on that you know or else I am out of a job and the zoo animals will go hungry...or something.
sup all
Hatin' w/JGT is enough to make Fridays awesome, the weekend is just gravy.
Can someone give me the link to Hatin with Jay?
9:05 right?
Weather is not looking good for tomorrow dagnabit. It's tough to bring 2 young ones with the weather being bad.
Yeah, last night when i went to bed the rain prediction was 80% chance. This morning it is down to a mere 60%.
Well, I'm sure the wife and 2 kids will be coming down tomorrow, but i'm not sure we will make it thru the game if the weather gets really bad.
whattup hotties. i hate i miss the fun on thursday nites. i either get the computer or the HD tv on thursdays. :(
Lemme get a new thread up.
I'll provide a radio link there.
Sometimes it takes
someone special
to put out
those pesky embers.
Maybe, just perhaps,
someone like...
