I think most are cool.

It's just a weird emotional time right now for LSU that has some of the Fringe all worked up.

Jimbo's hire at Texas A&M is bringing back memories of last year's coaching search. The season wrapped up with two or three significant Mulligan game storylines, and, of course, the regular season winner of a major one lost out in the post-season for one and went from contender to "Peach Bowl vs. A Non-power 5 for a bowl game" overnight. Bama backed into another championship opportunity without winning their division. Les is up for a new job in the SEC. Their cross division rival may finally be getting back on track. There is competition in the West aside from Bama, etc. That is a lot of scar tissue to pick at and emotions to deal with for some. Coupled with typical holiday stress, it may have broken a couple temporarily.

Fortunately, they got a good bowl and big match up. But, if Bama wins and ND upsets the Tigers, it may break the system for a few days.

Now this is a great post and a perfect example of how this board is supposed to work...
