Short of The Second Coming

It is mostly a forgone conclusion that Coach O will not be the head coach of the Tigers after then end of this year. I would even think he probably will not make it to the end of this year. Complaining or trashing Coach O is a waste of time. It solves nothing. A lot of names have been thrown around...
I have been a huge college football fan most of my life. I find the passion of the sport is derived from its tradition. I also realize traditional rivalry games make great TV and that is obviously the grease that is turning the wheels. Change that...the fuel driving the wheel. As a result I see a ne...
If you are easily distracted by squirrels or have not taken your daily dose of Ritalin or Adderall you might want to pass on this one. It seems there is no shortage of proposals for the SEC to revise its schedule. One, the Big 12 will dissolve in the imminent future. I give it six month or l...

Neither TCU or USC (West) are state schools. Both are private. ...

Brad The Clueless Buck Fan

Posted by The Third on 12/9/19 at 4:33 pm
This past Friday night I ventured to a local Wine Bar to say hello to the singer who would be performing later that evening. While there, I struck up a conversation with a nice fellow (I think was named Brad). I was wearing a faded gold (yellow) LSU ball cap I purchased in Metairie back in 1986-7...

Why not rotate?

Posted by The Third on 12/8/19 at 12:20 pm
I am sure it has been asked before. And yes I know we won anyway but, why is the SEC Football Championship only played in Atlanta? Yes, it is a great venue but so is a number of stadiums in Florida, Reliant Stadium in Texas and the Super Dome in NO. Playing in Atlanta give UGA a distinct advantage, ...

Just Win Baby

I just want the Tigers to win the Natty. I do not care what path they take. I do not care if they are number 1, 2,3 or 4 in the CFP, but, wouldn’t it be cool if after they did, they could say they defeated six of the teams listed in the season’s final AP Poll Top Ten (Auburn, Alabama, Florida, Georg...

Thank you Tigers.

I attended the football game in Tiger Stadium this past Saturday night. It was the first time after 31 years. It did not let me down. My oldest daughter (a TCU grad) and I arrived Friday night from Texas and we were at lot 406 around 10:15 the next morning. From the moment we got out of the car, it...

I see 175 NFl players from Texas and 59 from La. That is nearly three times as many. Yes Texas is a much more populated state but as I said there is in fact, a lot more talent in Texas. And yes I am a Tiger....

Cool Your Jets Alice

I live in what is called "Central Texas". We are 30 miles South of Baylor, 60 miles North of UT and 70 miles West of Texas A&M. Needless to say, when I wear my “Tiger Swag” I usually get some nasty comments. Trust me I can take ‘em and I can dish ‘em out. I am a proud Native Born Texas (Harrison Cou...

I will be driving in from just South of Waco. This will be the first time I will have returned to Tiger Stadium since 1988. I have not even been on Campus since 2009. I will be bringing rain gear. I realize things change and I still abide by the saying "Chance of Rain...Never". I watched that sham o...
I live in Central Texas. I am surrounded by nothing but Longhorn and Aggie Fans. On top of that, we now have delusional Baylor Fans to contend with. For the first time in over thirty years I will be attending a game at The Cathedral of College Football next week. Perhaps I will able to wear my Tiger...

Parking questions for Aggie game

Posted by The Third on 11/22/19 at 12:06 pm
I will be driving in to town for the Texas A&M game. We will be arriving late afternoon on the day before. I have tickets but no parking passes. I realize there are lots for first come first serve. I do want to spend some time on campus strolling down memory lane but I am not sure I want to spend 10...

Head back to Baton Rouge.

Posted by The Third on 11/21/19 at 4:09 pm
After a 31 year absence I will be attending the game on Nov 30. Like Dad with me 60 years ago, I am bringing my daughter. I was 8 and she is 43. We are coming from the Dallas area and Central Texas. We will arrive Friday evening early. Where is place we could hit up Friday night? We plan to just tak...
I am 68. Went to LSU in '69 graduated in '74. First game was Oct 31 '59. Last game I was at Tiger Stadium was Sept '88. Next game I will be at Tiger Stadium Nov 30, 2019...I am a little excited. Use to play full contact tackle football after it rained on the South side of Tiger Stadium. One time Tom...
