Hotty Toddy!!!!!! The Rebels roll on Saturday by beating the University of Louisiana-Monroe 59-0. I tell you Clark, I haven't seen a whipping like that since someone stuck a banana in my pants and turned a monkey loose. In the process the Rebs become bowl eligible and that is bigtime. Still allot to be decided in this season, but it is a great feeling to be in the position. A couple of hatefest coming up against LSU and MSU. We'll see how it turns out, but for now...
