College Football: Overreaction Tuesday – Fallout from wild Week 1
2. Kevin Sumlin‘s job is not safe
Coming into the last two years, not too many people had a hotter seat than Texas A&M’s Kevin Sumlin.
During the first half of his game against UCLA, it looked like Sumlin’s seat got a whole lot cooler. In the third, he was sitting pretty on the seat.
Enter the Legend of Josh “Chosen” Rosen. He erased the horrible first half he and team had with a fourth quarter for the ages. He led the Bruins to a 28-point quarter capped off by a fake spike touchdown to win the game. The Bruins won the game 45-44.
There is no way Kevin Sumlin can keep his job after losing like this. At one point in the game, the Aggies were up 44-10. The athletic department and the boosters at A&M will more than likely not be pleased to see Sumlin next. He is a dead coach walking.
The college football world will be refreshing Twitter for the next week to see when Sumlin will be fired. If he makes it to through the week, everyone, maybe even Sumlin himself, will be surprised. Sumlin definitely still can coach but his days as the head coach of the Texas A&M Aggies are numbered.
