I pretty much had to come when I heard who USC would be playing since one of my high school teammates played for Nebraska in the mid-late 70s (Isiah "I.M." Hipp). Hope to have a good time visiting with y'all. Go Eagles!

Nebraska and South Carolina had 2 very good games in 1986 and 1987. Their coach, Joe Morrison, died after the 1988 season. He was an interesting character who wore all black and smoked on the sidelines.

Reggie Arnold could start for a few Big XII schools. ASU knocked off A&M last year. Can't take them lightly.

Reggie Arnold is a very good running back for Arkansas State.

How about a Nebraska-Arkansas game? Arkansas is the closest SEC school to Nebraska and has a very nice facility. Like the Huskers, the Hogs are the only team in their state that gets any fan support.

South Carolina

For those that missed it ESPNU will replay it all morning leading up to Colin Cowherd's radio show

Since I'm from I.M. Hipp's hometown I'll list him as my favorite, but Rozier is the best alltime

I'd agree Bama has more pressure than Kentucky. In Alabama all they have is football. When Bear died the state shut down. It was as if a president's funeral was going on when Bear was being buried. Kentucky loves its basketball, but it also has horse racing and other things in the state. Just look at the number of coaches Bama has run off since Bear's death.

No Mike Sherman either.

Don't worry Jen, I thought the exact same thing when I first read this thread

23. Bo Pelini(10-4 at Nebraska and overall)- In 2019 when we make this list Pelini might be in the top 5. There are few defensive minds better than Pelini and soon it will start to show in Lincoln. The Blackshirts will be back and Pelini will have Nebraska in a BCS bowl very soon. Pelini has led top defenses at Nebraska, Oklahoma, and LSU as a DC. Toughness is back in Lincoln and will stay there for a long time. http://www.dixiefriedsports.com/Top_100_Coaches_in_NCAA.html

This list should be called the jobs with the most pressure to win. If I were making a list of the toughest jobs I'd have Baylor Vandy Iowa State Duke

It's gotten Arkansas possibly the best athletic facilities in the country and at least the Hogs have 3 SEC division titles in the last 12-13 years. It's gotten South Carolina 2 HOF coaches in Spurrier and Holtz even though the program for 100 years has been a death trap for coaches. It actually killed Joe Morrison(coached against the Huskers in 86 and 87)

That was a Saturday game. You are thinking about LSU playing at Mississippi State 2 years ago to start the season. These are the opening games on Thursdays since 2005 2005 Central Florida at South Carolina 2006 South Carolina at Miss State 2007 LSU at Miss State 2008 NC State at South Carolina 2009 South Carolina at NC State ESPN loves Spurrier and cowbells to open the season I guess.
