Jerry Moore was under-rated

I went to church with Frank Beamer. It was always good to talk to him as he was such a nice person

“Lou Holtz?!”

True, Holtz was a good coach but if you lived in SB during his tenure you got a steady stream of whining from him every time he lost a game.....became tiresome quick.

Bill Snyder should be ranked ahead of Bob Stoops. K-State was the worst program in college football until Snyder came along. Stoops learned from Snyder, and how can you not win games at Zero U? Lou Holts is my favorite coach.

In 1950 one poll (outlier you prolly never heard of) ranked Kentucky as National Champions. That’s right up there with UCF claiming the National Title because Bama won the title even though beaten by Auburn and UCF beat Auburn in the Chik-Fil-A Bowl. Auburn lost the SEC Championship game, and Bama was 4th seed in playoffs and went on to beat Clemson for the title.
