The Houston Nutt Game: 2008 Edition
Our lecture begins today on the subject of the phenomenon known as “The Houston Nutt Special.” Observed on an annual basis since the beginning of Nutt’s career in the SEC, the “Houston Nutt Special” is best defined as the sudden, crushing, and zany defeat of a ranked team by a less-ranked or even unranked Houston Nutt-coached team despite the best predictions of pundits, coaches, and nearly everyone else sizing up the pregame landscape.
For a superb example of this phenomena, please see today’s victory for Ole Miss over Florida for a superlative display of Houston Nutt’s ability to reverse the poles of reality to his liking.
