Our AD does not do anything unless told to do X.

100% they cancel the series after the home game there
See OU, Vanderbilt.

Vandy canceled before *any* games. Personally IΓÇÖd offer Ole Miss just a home and home, not a 2:1. They signed a 1:1 with little olΓÇÖ Wake Forest (that wonΓÇÖt be completed, sureΓÇöbut they still signed it).

In case I wasn't clear, two games at SMU and one at Oxford. Lane says they'd beat us every time, let them put their money where Lane's big mouth is.

Lane will be gone before the games could be scheduled and played. LaneΓÇÖs always a couple losses away from another meeting on the tarmac. HeΓÇÖs really not worth our time.

We really need to bulk up our Oline before we start trying to schedule these games though. They were exposed all year long as a huge weak spot. Imagining Kevin with a clean pocket brings hope we can compete with the big guys but until we can upgrade our lineman that wonΓÇÖt happen

Yeah I thought you meant the reverse. That would be a funny, and fun, offer.
Duke is likely going to get obliterated by Ole Miss in the Gator BowlΓÇö2 of our 3 scholarship QBs are out, including the starter all year, Maalik MurphyΓÇöbut at least IΓÇÖm liking how distracted Kiffin has been by his CFP anger.

Appreciate Jason B all season! However, I'm not entirely sure the 'ball is a frozen rock' deal is a worthwhile argument. Penn St. had the same issues and didn't throw 3 ints. I did listen to some of the interviews that PP posted and it sounds like we wanted to be aggressive on play calls on offense. I suppose that's one approach. Avoiding mistakes and allowing the opponent to beat themselves while relying on defense (if it is a strength) is another.
