When you don’t win it all for two years in a row, you open yourself up for smack talk
SEC Smack Talk For Every School
By: Larry Burton
It’s never too early to arm yourself with smack talk for every school in the SEC and when else but the early off season is a better time to do it?
Now that all the SEC coaches have gotten in any jabs that they had at SEC Media Days, here’s some jabs at all the teams in a non discriminatory manner.
So let’s begin and go in alphabetical order.
Alabama:
