I was playing from behind for awhile so the passing came out. Yeah the bowl game looking like it ain't happening again. Just gotta hit 4 wins for the contract.

Thanks, I pride myself in the pics so I'll take the W.

Think you might need to go Deion Sanders in the portal after this season to get some studs into the program to cover up some of these issues on offense

[The JZA]

Losing to Vandy? They really had you cheeked up in the first half.

[ShireNiner]

Damn I thought Vandy would be one of your wins to get to 6. That one hurts.

Think you might need to go Deion Sanders in the portal after this season to get some studs into the program to cover up some of these issues on offense

wonder if you could actually pull 35 players from the portal
