Let us not forget...JFF had more yards by himself against UF than the entire Swamp Kitties did against UF. That was in his first college football game ever....if you want to keep comparing his first game, lets also compare what the kitties did as well

Lou Holtz seems to think so...he picked A&M to win and he is 28-7 on his picks this year.......Mark May picked the swamp kitties...he is 18-17 on his picks for the year.

List of LSU QBs who BROKE the SEC yardage/productivity record during the last 42 years:

ZERO.

Number of times Johnny fricking Football has broken it in the last month: two.

Please don't tell me you just cited a Lou Holtz opinion as any indication of what this game might bring. That old douche is as pathetically stupid and senile as they come.

Lou also picked USC against us last week. Worked out well, huh. Chris Low also picked against us last week as well. And they both pick TAMU this week. I like our chances.

That's great and all. Manziel has been great and could be something really special this year. Fortunately for us, this is a team game. He can break another record, but as long as we win, who gives a sh*t.

LSU rushed for 258 against one of the best front 7s in the country (USCe) and you think A&Ms can stop them?


I actually agree with you ... and I am fairly certain LSU is going to stomp a mudhole in A&M's arse. But let's not forget one thing ... our game was played in Tiger Stadium, at night. And that may have had something to do with the outcome, agreed? Could have been the other way around had y'all had to travel to The Cock Pit last Saturday night.


It is what it is, it's life in the SEC. Y'all beat the dogshite out of us in the trenches. Please do it to A&M as well ... a couple of their fans have a karma kickback coming. Or, at the very least, a material lesson in good SEC defenses and what they are capable of doing to any offense in the country on any given morning, noon or night.

Gators - 20 Naggies - 17

Seems to me that the Naggies gave the Gators a better game than LSU did, and LSU had 3 more weeks to see what the Gators could do.

The Gators scored with 5:15 left in the third quarter to go up 7-6 on LSU at the swamp. Meaning LSU held Florida scoreless for 40 minutes of a 60 minute game at the swamp, while Florida out possesed LSU 37:24-22:36. Im sorry but the Florida win over LSU wasn't very sound. LSU was in control for the majority of the game. If they had any offense whatsoever, it wouldn't have even been a game.Please stop trying to use comparisons between Florida's wins over LSU and Texas A&M as logic to determine which team is better.

Sound reasoning...... we all know Lou Holtz and Mark May's opinions are very important

A lot has changed since the Florida game. At the time, JFF just looked at his first read then took off. It is a different QB right now that has learnt to stay in the pocked and go through his progressions. He'll still run if nothing is open, but I don't expect miracles doing so vs the LSU front. So yes, 2nd half adjustments shut him off vs Florida, but JFF has now much more experience. And I think it will be the key to the game; if JFF can make the throws on 1st and 2nd down and stay in the pocket, it could open up some run game. Remember the A&M's OL is one of the best in the nation.

A&M's defense is still suspicious, yet it had some success against the run. Is that enough to limit LSU to less than 20 points ? The key here lays on third downs and long. Can LSU pass when it will need to ?

I sincerely don't know who will win, it is probably 60-40 LSU right now. But these are much better odds for A&M than I anticipated at the beginning of the season. Will be a great game to watch anyways, love the SEC!

So, what happened? I'll tell you. Your sissy boys got wore out by a tougher team. That's what happened. Let's face the truth. That big, bad LSU team that you think you have is just not up to what most of you expect, and if the LSU masses are counting out aTm in this game, they are making a big mistake. I do expect LSU to win, but I'm going to rag some Tiger asses if they don't.

tony, you are a 55 year old talking shite after your team has its first decent regular season win in years. Act like you've been there before, neck.

This is what Gator DE, Dominique Easley, had to say after the game............

"Them boys was huffing and puffing," Easley said. "I was looking in people's eyes and they were scared. That's what we wanted. We wanted to take somebody's will. We like to take people's will, not just win the game. Make them remember this night."

The Gators manhandled you boys, Max. Deal with it!

Florida 20 - A&M 17

I think they'll be fine, as long as the Aggies learn that there are four quarters in a game & not 3.

Mizzou, on the other hand, is on suicide watch.

Since the day Saban arrived at LSU's campus they have been a really good team. The 50 years Prior to that not much to talk about. So why can't anyone else improve?

No the "joke" for you guys is either conditioning or depth...for the last several years you guys fade late in games worse than any club I've seen...it has got to be agonizing for an ATM fan to watch every week...
