Yes Virginia, Sark really did refer to 6 wins as "House Money"

Some people still think I'm kidding....

You could MAYBE argue that the goals in 2011 going into the season were to make sure that we were bowl eligible.

But it's also 100% clear how we fell on our face to end the year that the demand on performance and results wasn't there either.

What's the line in the Gambler? "You never count your money when you're sitting at the table ... there will be time enough for counting when the dealing is done."

If we were coming off a Holiday Bowl win over Nebraska, why on God's green earth would 6 wins be the goal for the following year?

It SHOULDN'T have been ...

But I could see some concern at how Keith would react as a QB starting for the first time ...

And, if I remember right, we lost some key pieces on defense after 2010.

But still, you should be expecting 8+ wins if your program is growing.

STFU. Keith was 10x better than Lockner. Starting 5-1, they should've done better. Plungers vs Stanford and Oregon were unacceptable. The USC + Or St 3 game losing streak should've put Sark in a coffin. Fuck.

House money after Colorado. In the black and feeling good, which can lead to risky behavior

I'm guessing this will mean "opening up" the offense and a heavy dose of throwing the nerf ball around against UCLA

And then finally going back to Sankey when you realize your fucked

I think take the gloves off would be appropriate in this thread.

Fuck anyone who comes close to mentioning Keith in a negative light. All you Lockner dick suckers should DIAFF. Keith is 10,000 times a better college QB than Lockner ever was and it was apparent 4 games into his sophomore year.
