Tony Franklin on Paul Finebaum Show

[JDubyadawg]

Tech OC was on the Paul Finebaum Radio Show yesterday and as par for this show they had him on there to talk about the almighty SEC and Auburn, Alabama etc.

He was asked a few questions about the Boise St. game and one quote was:
"Last night was a unique experience. It was the strangest sight I've seen with the blue turf."


Also said that from the pressbox where he was he would sometimes lose sight of the Boise St. receivers in the endzone.

Also was asked the #1 question we have all heard and that is asked every day since before the season began which is If Boise St. had to play the SEC schedule, they would probably have one or two losses so they would not be undefeated and not ranked as high blah blah whine whine....:bigcry: Franklin's reply was " Well thats true but thats true for the teams in the SEC as well, just look at their records" - his point being that point really isn't that valid. He also stated that he believed the Boise St. team was the most well coached team in the nation in every phase of the game but their defense was not necessarily a top ten defense despite their stats.

Didn't Finebaum write an article about how Tech didn't belong on the same field with Alabama the week we played them?

We all remember how that turned out

Yeah, that's the problem with many audio links and whatever software you got.

Tony gives great interviews.

Yep, that was a good interview. I have been listening to Finebaum on XM recently, but his BCS arrogance and that of his callers is a bit too much sometimes. But on Tuesday he took it to a whole new level in his weekly spot with Barbara Dooley. I don't particularly care for her and her poor-mouthing of Tech and excuse-making for Precious, but Finebaum really ripped into her over DD's remarks comparing Tennessee to the German army. I thought he stepped over the line in some of his remarks to her.

Saw the tweets from Finebaum, but haven't had chance to hear the podcast. I'll try later today. . . . and she's a paid guest on his show at that!
