I respectfully disagree. To achieve an SBC Championship in football is more than one good season, it’s a great season which deserves an extension.

This is how we got Marlin

And still gave up 526 yards.

This game was crazy.

I don't think I will ever see another like it.

That's enough yardage for over FIVE 100 yards drives, which would equate to 35 points.

. and they held them to 34 while scoring 21 of their own.

You give extension to protect yourself from coaches getting poached. No one is coming calling for Dez even of he wins 10 games. Just like Bobby they could offer him a year to year contract and he would have no chose but to accept it.

An extension really doesn't do anything to stop a school from poaching your coach unless its something crazy like a Jimbo Fisher contract. The schools that poach are the bigger schools and they can afford your coach's buyout. The extension just gets you a little more money in your pocket to hopefully put towards a replacement.

The three scores were single plays. Important stops, yes. But often when the “one play cost us the game” point is brought up, here’s a great example of the big picture why all plays matter. Three stops, 21 points, and still got ran over like a frog on the highway after a rainstorm.

And the offense did too many 3 and outs.

As Kevin Foote would say, those weren't stops.They were absolute gifts. Those passes and decisions were so bad they literally put the ball in our defenders hands. Now, they had to make the plays to score on them but had they continued to run the ball it would have looked a lot different.

JSU should have just ran the ball the whole game. Not throw a pass after the first pick.
