It's Not Them, It's Me

   Phil Fulmer and Sylvester Croom were reading from the same post-game script after their teams were taken to the woodshed Saturday. Both delivered the "blame me and not the players" post-mortem.

   OK, we will, especially Fulmer, the first SEC coach on the job security hot seat after a 30-6 shellacking from Florida. The Vols' offensive is invisible. In a brutally difficult league at a school with lofty expectations, many Tennessee fans have had their fill of Phil.

   What will it take for Fulmer to save his job?

   At Mississippi State, where the bar is lower, Croom is in no jeopardy (yet), but his Bulldogs were pushovers in a 38-7 drilling even though Georgia Tech lost its quarterback to injury in the first series.

   Croom's hiring, after he was passed over at Alabama, was widely hailed as the best thing for MSU. Can he win there consistently? Can anyone?
