Mack just ran off 3 assistants, including OC, GREG DAVIS. Think Mack might go to Auburn for a replacement?

So far I have heard the Auburn OC and the Boise OC are the top targets. Holgerson was their original target but he shut them down before they could ask. Don't know how true that is, but I like it if it is true.

Holgerson is going to be a HC very soon. His offense at OSU is awesome. If he went to tu he would have to start from scratch with no QB on campus. That could potentially hurt his stock. He is going to stay right where he is until he gets a HC job.
All of this is strictly my thoughts. I have no real knowledge of anything.

I predict Malzahn will be moving on this year in order to avoid the hammer that is about to fall on Auburn. My hope is:
1. Dan Mullen (Miss State)gets the Miami job because I really want that guy out of the SEC.
2. Malzahn leaves Auburn for HC at Miss State and continues Houston Nutt's slow spiral to his eventual job as manager of a tote the note used car lot in Little Rock.

In other news, Arkansas had 24,000 requests for 17,500 alloted Sugar Bowl tickets. The seats were only offered to season ticket holders thru the Razorback Foundation.
Meanwhile, the Ohio State University has decided to sell their allotment OVER THE INTERNET to the general public on Wednesday.
I hope those Yankees don't mind sitting beside a bunch of drunk rednecks with internet access.

I bet your information is a little off. I bet they will start taking requests for any tickets not purchased by season ticket holders by that date. Here's what TCU is doing and has always done with their bowl tickets and I'm willing to bet most schools, esp the big ones, do the same.
Frog Club season ticket holders have until 12-9 to request tickets on-line. Numbers 1-500 in priority points can get up to 8. 501-1000 can get 6. 1000+ can get 4. On 12-13 those orders will be fulfilled and charged to your credit/debit card. I heard TCU's allotment will be 32000 (but not all 32k will be available b/c of staff, family, faculity, band, etc). FC members wanting additional tickets can request them (by 12-9) if the tickets are available (which they will be). I expect the amount of available tickets to be around 28k. The number sold to season ticket holders is expected to be around 22-25k. That leaves 3-6k available. Now, you can purchase tickets directly from the school...but you have to also make a non-refundable $100 donation to the Frog Club. This is even if you don't get selected to buy tickets. So just to put your name in line to buy remaining tickets is $100. I'm willing to bet tOSU has something similar. Lots of Wisconsin people have put in requests for tickets and I'm sure they'll be surprised to learn they'll come out empty-handed and just made a $100 donation to the Frog Club.

You think TCU will have 32K in attendance in Pasadena? I'm willing to bet against you on that one. Do they have 32K alumni?

Despite what you guys think they had about 34k in Glendale last year.

If they had 34k, then some of them were wearing blue and orange or that stadium holds about 150k

Once again, BSU's colors were essentially the same as the Fiesta Bowl's. The purple was drowned out by the bright orange and blue. Being in a dome didn't help either as the lights are aimed on the playing field; not the seating bowl. The purple should show up rather well in the sunlight of Pasadena.

wow, you're blaming your teams lack of a following on lighting and colors blending?

TCU folks showed up last year. Go back and watch the game. The seemingly dark spots in the crowd are actually purple.

no, no they aren't.
The tcu fans were outnumbered 3 to 1 at least.

The school alone sold 25k tickets...so by that logic the place holds 100k.

what the school sold and what went are not necessarily the same.
For instance: TCU sells ticket to drugged up leased BMW driving DBag TCU student. Said DBag turns around and sells his ticket to someone else.
This must've happened a ton if TCU sold 25K tickets. Because the place was covered in blue and orange.
Not your mysterious purple blue, either. Boise Blue.
