Leigh Tiffin - All Time Leading Scorer. That's a fucking joke, man.
I don't think its all that unusual for kickers to be top scorers on a team?

I know. That fact that he's Alabama's as inconsistent as he's been is joke-worthy, you have to admit. He ended his career with a great doink though.  :thumbsup:

Most of the time they are.


Here's another what if....WHAT IF Nebraska has a kicker who knows how to kick a normal kickoff? What if Nebraska learns how to tackle without using the horsecollar? You are right. What ifs are everywhere.

My butthole's pucker factor normally goes up some when he is about to kick. He can nail it from a hash from like 60 yards out and still have some leftover, but God knows he will fuck up a PAT. He's not horribly inconsistant, though. He's missed 5 field goals in 35 attempts this season.

Well, I'm sure his career in motor home sells won't suffer just as long as they don't bring him in to close the deal.

Actually, I think he will make it to the NFL. He's got a hell of a leg, and is a good clutch kicker. Thats something I can give him props for....he makes them when we need it, for the most part.

I'm surprised WJOX or WNSP hasn't given him a show yet.

I would not hire him to kick for my NFL team.

"So I want everybody to think here for a second, how much does this game mean to you? 'Cause if it means something to you, you can't stand still. You understand? You play fast! You play strong! You go out there and dominate the man you're playing against, and you make his ass quit! That's our trademark! That's our M.O.... as a team! That's what people know us as!" ~ Nick Saban

Did they? I didn't even start watching until after Bradford went out.

Anyway, thats sort of been my point about the whole "Alabama only won because McCoy wasn't in" argument. Its hypothetical. Sure, it gave is a damn good opportunity. But its part of football. Dareus certainly wasn't trying to knock him out. It just happened. A few Texas fans at work were pissed off, but when I said the same thing about them winning against Oklahoma, they didn't have much left to say.

What if McElroy didn't have a fractured rib? What if we had Hightower? What if Marquis Johnson didn't have a broken thumb? What if Ingram didn't have an ankle injury wasn't a big PUSS? What if McClain wasn't receiving IV fluids twice before the game and once at halftime? What the phuk if? It works both ways.

See changes above.

Mostly kidding.

I don't know that Colt being in the game would have given Texas too much of a better chance.  Let me clarify that....if everything else was exactly the same, and the only change was McCoy at QB, then sure, Texas likely would have won.

But the thing is, Alabama did what they did based on the game being 24-6.  They were content to ride that lead, not take chances, etc.  Had it been 14-6, then 14-13, then 21-20, etc, both teams would have played the game completely differently.  

Nearly every championship game winner and championship game loser has "what ifs".   Like, Ohio State's was "what if we didn't get here just because our conference sucks?".  USC's was "what if Reggie Bush didn't try to lateral the ball for no reason inside the 20?".  

Think of Nebraska's whole season....what if they didn't turn the ball over EIGHT times against Iowa State.  What if they didn't have blown coverage on ONE play at the end of the Virginia Tech game?  What if they didn't kick the ball out of bounds against Texas?

There's no excuse for the Texas Tech loss (31-10), but Nebraska could easily have been 12-1, Big 12 champs, and played in the Fiesta Bowl with a chance at a 13-1 season.  

What if, what if.

Just wondering - does it still count as a generation when they inbreed? :blink:  Cuz if not, then most of their fan base is still first generation...
A generation = 15 years.

Yeah, but if your daughter is 14 when you get her pregnant, does that make her kid first generation or second generation?  Damn that bammer math...

Maybe it depends on if her older kid was by your son or your brother
