Palmetto Proving Grounds

We got embarrassed in the Georgia Dome, so he has somewhat of a point. However, the big differences are that we lost to the future National Champion who had the Heisman Trophy winner as their QB. Also, the Orange Bowl is a on a much larger national stage than the SEC Championship game. I digress, he doesn't have a point.

taters are no friends of urs.........

He's comparing WVU to Auburn?

Not only were they national champions with a heisman QB. That heisman QB was the best player to come through college since I have been alive. He was unstoppable for college players.

If that Auburn team had played last yrs klimpson team in that bowl, Scam and co. would have put up 70 by halftime.

Also, its not the amount that they lost by, its the amount of points they gave up. 70 points is just, well, a record.

The BIG difference is WVU could have scored 100 easily had they not called the dogs off. Clemson looked like an over-matched powder puff team against WVU.

Taters going to tate

- The Auburn team we lost to was light years ahead of the WVU team they lost to.
- That AU team was the national champion and had a dominant Heisman winner running the offense; the WVU team lost to Louisville and Syracuse that year.
- WVU could have scored triple digits if they wanted to.
- The points given up is the big problem in their game, not the margin of defeat. They gave up 70 points. 70. In a BCS Bowl.
- WVU allowed 30+ppg to Big East teams. CU should have been able to score at will and didn't.

LOTS to differentiate.

Up vote on that.....Damn straight

The difference is WVU was mediocre at best, from a worthless conference, and still managed to put 21 points on the tiggers with 3rd stringers in the 2nd half. Against a first team defense. I quit watching (like most of the country), but I'm guessing half of WVU's players didn't even have their names stitched onto their jerseys (like most scout team players). Auburn won a National Championship. The one point he has is that the SEC CG is a major stage, at least as big as the Orange Bowl. In fact, given the beatdown the ACC has taken in both 2011 (Stam vs VT 40-12) and 2012 (the tigger debocle) I'm suprised anyone even tunes into that worthless bowl at all. If you ask me, the Orange bowl took it on the chin for being associated with the ACC.

Ummmm....are there any other kind of tater friends? Aren't they all stupid? I mean....look who they root for.
