SEC College Football: Week 2 ‘Get Off My Lawn’ Awards
By Chris Hale
It’s time for the week two edition of the SEC College Football “Get Off My Lawn” Awards as we take time for the crazies of the week.
ICYMI: Crimson Tide vs WKU—Nick Saban Wasn’t Too Happy After the Win
SEC College Football is here and folks start to act crazier than normal, whether it’s from the alcohol or a variety of other reasons.
Have you ever been watching the game on television or watching your social media feed roll by and have the urge to roll your eyes? It could be a play in one of the weekend games, or a comment made that makes you want to say, “Get off my lawn!”. It could be your own tweet that you wish you could take back. For some, fans of The Simpsons could substitute “Old man yells at cloud” here.
Throughout the college football season, we will collect some of the worst and share them with you each week.
Look, I’m old and cranky so let’s get to it.

I can’t count the times an Auburn fan has made fun of a “Bammer” when they get engaged in some strange place or one happens to do something stupid. Here is a newsflash. We are all from the same state but because we are better than you, the odds aren’t in our favor with the massive number of fans.
The Gus Bus’ radio show happens at Bob’s Victory Grille in Auburn. While I love Bob’s, it’s not something that screams romance to me. Neither is a coach’s radio show. The future newlyweds get the first “Get off my lawn!” for the week.
I know Tennessee played Virginia Tech at Bristol Motor Speedway and that’s a place where the “country” has been known to come out. I think Earl Bob Tom Smith needs to worry about putting some dang clothes on. And hot pink? Get off my lawn. I don’t want to see your “Big Orange” anything.
I wonder if Marge Sue Beth Jones would use her snuff spittoon as a gun rest. She’s ready to get a Hokie off her trailer park
lawn
concrete.
We drift over to the ACC for maybe the dumbest move in college football this weekend. He was celebrating a DROPPED THE BALL BEFORE CROSSING THE GOAL LINE. Clemson ended up squeaking out a win against Troy, but I bet Dabo told Ray Ray McCloud…yep, you guessed it.
If you missed this one, you missed a good one. Arkansas grabbed a 41-38 win over TCU in two overtimes. SEC! SEC! And oh my Gawd! BERT WANTED TO TELL DUDE TO GET OFF HIS LAWN.
I see USC is still holding things together after the Tide got them off the lawn at Jerry World.

And last but not least and my favorite, by far, our own Tim Williams telling the Western Kentucky quarterback to get off the grass at Bryant-Denny. Well, I guess he actually put him on the grass but you get the picture.
