Tennessee leads most SEC schools in football-related secondary violations since Lane Kiffin was hired as coach on Dec. 1, 2008, according to information obtained through Freedom of Information requests by the News Sentinel. Tennessee has had six. Ole Miss is next with five. Alabama and Auburn did not respond to the FOI requests and Vanderbilt, as a private school, is not subject to FOI requests. Kiffin admits he has made some mistakes, but he does not believe the number to be over the top.

no **** sherlock. He'd tell you that with a smile on his face. The real question is how long until SEC fans start with the "leads the SEC in something" posts.

Why is it I can't find a single Gator fan to take UF (+50) in a real bet?

Actually, some of us don't necessarily think the margin will be +50.

Congrats, svt - I could be wrong, but I think you've set a new record for putting up the fastest post whacking the Gators (post #6) on a thread that doesn't mention the Gators in the story. Free beer for you! But nothing for Gator fan BillyBoy - he set you up for the hit.

Next T&R, SEC fans like football. It only makes sense considering how retarded this one is.

June 28, 2009  01:08 PM ET

I like it. Alabama and Auburn wouldnt respond. Didnt Saban have a bunch his first year? But really folks, we are all getting excited because of 6 minor secondary violations. Man, you all let Kiffin get under your skin just because he called out Urban Cryer. Wow.

Agreed.

Or....using the same logic.... here's another News Sentinel headline:

"Alabama and Auburn Have No Secondary Violations!!..........according to information obtained through Freedom of Information requests by the News Sentinel. PS - Alabama and Auburn did not respond to the FOI requests."

I will take the 50 points that FL will put on TN in Sept (and especially since I will be there personally) and also......hihandicap, do you feel that FL will just stop recruiting because Mr. (to you) Tebow has graduated after this season? We will more than likely have the #1 recruiting class for 2010 as we simply did not have any holes this year). Besides, John Brantley is better than anything TN has now or forthcoming and our #2 guy!

+50? That tells you how far apart those two programs are.

June 28, 2009  05:44 PM ET

Ill out money on +50 against that sorry excuse for a football team and that piece of $h!t head coach. And ill give a em a few more years to be on probation, they will never win a title with Lame there.

Son, put the cap on the tube of glue and take a step back. Open the window and breathe deep. The fumes are getting to you.

The spread will be huge, but obviously not over 30. No sane person would bet any significant amount of cash of UF winning by 50 v. UT. But...if you could get more than 1 to 1 payout, it might be worth gambling, since Urban will want to destroy Lane & send a message. So don't be shocked if Tebow plays the entire game (same the last 5 minutes), no matter the score.

Gators do lead the SEC in arrests over the last few years. That's not a proud stat for Gator Nation.
