John L. Smith is apparently being John L. Smith today at the Little Rock Touchdown Club.

"I'm asking you as fans, don't give up on those players, don't give up on us. It's our program, it's a state of Alabama program. It's not one individual's program, so hang in there, we're all part of it."

Alabama?

Not ordinarily a huge misstep. But with the team at 1-3...

Also, when asked where he thought Bobby Petrino would end up next year, Kentucky or Auburn, Smith laughed, then said "a better guess would be Auburn."

We're told the room got increasingly uncomfortable throughout Smith's appearance.
