It's football season, and, as of this weekend, it just got ugly. So let's start with the ugly. South Carolina, ranked 19th, soundly beat Alabama, ranked number 1, 35-21. That set off a national media maelstrom that started with Alabama's fall from 1st to 8th.
THE UGLY: National media second-guessing Alabama's first 5 wins after the loss to South Carolina saying that Florida is an average team, Penn State is inept, and Arkansas won in "lackluster" fashion over Texas A&M. I guess San Jose State and Duke were chopped liver.
THE BAD: Having to forever endure the worst color commentators ever---CBS' Verne Lundquist and Gary Danielson. Please just let me listen to Eli Gold!
THE GOOD: Yes, there is something good, and I, especially, need to take it to heart. Greg McElroy said “I’m ready and willing to accept this challenge as an individual, and I promise I will do everything in my power to get these guys ready to go and put this loss in the rear-view mirror and learn everything that we possibly can from it, because there’s so much to learn and we’re still going to be one heck of a team.”
Roll Tide! Bring on Ole Miss!
