re: LSU annual opponents confirmed per Chris Low

Also - Who gets five home games next year, and who gets only four? Other than UT/OU, are there any other permanents that are or could be playing at "neutral" sites?

When will the rest of the opponents for '26 be announced?
If we assume that the only repeat opponents next year are the three annual opponents, that gives the Tigers five of these six next year: Texas, Missouri, Miss. St., Auburn, Kentucky, and Georgia.

re: Did Charlie Kirk actually engage in hate speech?
Posted by InCaliForNow on 9/12/25 at 12:19 pm to selfgen
I had a conversation with someone yesterday who said - "It is a tragedy that he was killed, but, he is reaping what he sowed".
Flabbergasted, I asked what it was that he sowed - and of course they said hate.
I asked for examples and the two I got were that CK said:
"Trans people are not human".
and
"Jews are the source of most of the problems in the world".
I cannot find any evidence of him saying either of these things.
Also - context and exact phrasing matters.
A paraphrase out of context almost always paints a picture to fit a specific narrative. I doubt he said it without clarification.
The conversation I had was with someone I care about and it hurt my heart to hear what they said.
I pressed and my friend said "What I meant was he shouldn't be surprised someone tried to take him out"
I am not sure what to feel about that statement.
One one hand - yes, we should be surprised (and saddened) that free speech results in violence.
One another hand - I am not surprised that someone is that unhinged by hearing well articulated views contrary theirs.
Finally - anyone who has a "but" when mentioning that the death was tragic is suspect in their thinking. That "but" implies in some small way that the killing wasn't all bad.

re: How knowledgeable is the rest of the SEC on the Border War?

I’m aware, and I’m all for traditional rivalries continuing and/or resuming
Same with Bedlam and LSU playing Tulane

Rivalry Week Game
Posted by InCaliForNow on 8/17/25 at 2:34 pm
The Tigers are one of the four SEC teams with no in state rival to end the season.
OU, Arkansas, and Missouri are the other four.
Looks like we’ll be ending with OU until that changes.
I’d rather OU play OK St again and the Tigers pick up Tulane.
Or swap out OU for Arkansas and let OU play Missouri.
I’m curious what others think of this current “rival”.

Ideas for Baltimore and DC
Posted by InCaliForNow on 8/8/25 at 10:32 am
I am going to do a long weekend in DC in early September. I will be staying in Georgetown. The itinerary one day is to go to an Orioles game and to get our fill of Maryland crab.
Any ideas on what else to do in Maryland?
As far as DC - I've done all the monuments and the Smithsonian museums a few times. Any less well known things to see in DC.
Thanks in advance for any input.

re: How many of these cities have you been to?
Posted by InCaliForNow on 7/30/25 at 9:01 am to OU Guy
40. There are a few I may have visited - not sure.
I have been to all 50 states, plus DC.
I've been to each of these territories:
Guam
Northern Mariana Islands
Puerto Rico
I've flown through the airport in the U.S. Virgin Islands - not sure if that counts.
The only territory I haven't visited is American Samoa

re: What’s the longest you’ve not worked as an adult?
Posted by InCaliForNow on 7/29/25 at 5:26 pm to fareplay
I’ve never been unemployed, and the most I’ve ever had off between jobs is three weeks.
I’ve done three week vacations too. Not sure if that counts as “not working”. I don’t have one of those jobs where someone does my work when I’m out.
I’m 60, and have probably had less than a year total where I wasn’t working.
Likely retiring at the end of next year.

Count me as an LSU fan stoked about the 2026 Tiger defense.
Surely one of you posting here will be the next defensive coordinator since you are so much smarter that Blake Baker.

re: Your 3 “permanent rivals”?
Posted by InCaliForNow on 5/8/25 at 10:26 am to DalenSA
For LSU, I’d go with A&M, Ole Miss, and Bama.
But.,,,,as of now, LSU and Oklahoma lack traditional opponents for Rivalry Week.
Until that is resolved (Tulane? OK St.?) LSU will have OU as a permanent

Not me, but from a good friend
He worked for a company in Santa Monica. They would often loan out conference rooms for non-profits to hold meetings
He was at the urinal and saw someone walk up wearing amber colored glasses
It was Bono
