That’s cool. I wasn’t trying to be argumentative, I was just curious.

Does it play more linksy or does it have much elevation changes? Nice views or high shot values over canyons or requiring you to use your whole bag etc?

I am trying to remember the landscape around that area as I spent a lot of time in Shreveport and Dallas but remember things being mostly flat.

I am likely gonna check out the course Rodeo Dunes here in the next year or two as I have friends up that way.

The two main reasons we lost this game were:

Allowing OM to march down field like a hot knife through butter for a td at the end of second qtr

Leavitt inaccuracies on wide open receivers.

At this point we all can see he needs a lot more time practicing in the system w the receivers. Unless he makes drastic improvements we cannot win a championship with him. Hopefully, he can improve but I can’t see it happening in season.

On a side note- I cannot remember any qb getting more passes batted down than Leavitt this season. It’s really annoying.

Baker really disappointed last night as well.

I thought 9-3 this year simply due to so many parts being new. We have to be a little patient in the first year for sure. But the money all these guys make now make the hard criticism justified.

SL is making almost generational money so he needs to get his head out of his arse and hit wide open receivers.

I am gonna be in Monterrey/Carmel this weekend and would love to know of any there if people know

Bump

These morons on this board need to understand why the SEC has ZERO chance to do anything to LSU.

Sankey et al—frick off!

As a professional myself I can really appreciate your thoroughness of explaining what the can of worms are legally.

Sankey completely exposed himself and the SEC when he could not define what a professional was and how arbitrarily they decide eligibility cases. Furthermore, he took it to the next level when he said he was seeing the 5 for 5 ruling paperwork for the first time in court when it had been available for weeks. The entire issue for the hearing was about 5 for 5 and he was blatantly ignorant on the issue.

There would be none of this had they issued a one year exception for 2022, but decided (apparently from butthurt school presidents) to light the fuse of a bomb that inevitably will blow up in either SEC members or Sankey’s face, or both.

This seems that there must be some sort of attempt at getting congress to act, because certainly the powers atop these schools and Sankey cannot be this obtuse. For a vendetta against a football coach they risk all of this?

If so, new leadership is in order.
Sankey gets removed when all the school presidents and their attorneys review what all had been said in the OP.

I advise all in this thread to read it if you want to understand what will happen in the legal process. Otherwise, keep saying ignorant things and exposing yourself as an idiot like Sankey on the stand.

I also have not been to a game since 2016 and brought 4 people from out of state to their first LSU experience.

1-Tiger Stadium is still capable of producing its reputation. Crowd was into the game and loud. Everyone I was with and my friends from LSU were all impressed.

2-Traffic in was a bit painful (11am) and parking was quite a bit further away than I expected it would be. Made for a long walk back to car. But traffic out was not as bad as anticipated. We left midway thru 4th qtr just bc the out of towners had the rental car and were ready.

In fairness, we basically were able to stay along the south side the whole way with almost no turns until highland and never had to get to an interstate.

3-Piped in Music/Band: I would like to hear the band a little bit more, but thought the other music wasn’t as bad as made out by TD over the last 10 yrs. I think a nice compromise would be to alternate tv timeouts and possibly series between the band and piped in music.

I do notice the band a lot more on the tv broadcast than when in the stands.

4-Concessions were better than I expected. Having alcohol for sale was way nicer, especially given our circumstances with the weather. I also didn’t notice nearly as many sloppy drunk people entering the game.
I had the jambalaya and thought it was tasty and decent quantity for $12. My buddy had the burrito and was a little unhappy about the size. We also had boiled peanuts which we thought were amazing. We also were able to purchase more peanuts and bottled water in the 4th qtr.

5-Bathrooms were much nicer than last time I was there. There used to be the large open troughs and now were individual urinals. They could use some fans in there for some stagnation control of the heat, but it was also a muggy wet day.

6-Football product-this was the first game I have been to since 2019 vs UT and this team and coaching staff looked every bit a professional product. The communication, discipline, conditioning, depth and relentless competitiveness and unwillingness to take their foot off the gas was phenomenal.

Overall-I had stopped making the effort and spending the money to travel across the country to watch the tigers as the experience to cost ratio wasn’t worth it anymore. Watching an lsu team play like that makes me want to return again.

My buddy next to me was saying we should come back for Bama or UT. That’s pretty impressive for a first timer to want to spend the money for a flight, hotel and pricey tickets on secondary market. Full disclosure we spent $650/ticket for section 410. We offset that by betting $500 for lsu to cover 10.

Still….we gained a few new LSU fans this weekend

Personally, I would prefer to see 18 be reserved for an offensive player if possible and only given to a defensive player if one meets more criteria than an offensive player.

7 should be preferentially for the defense but using a strict criteria of someone who was either an all-american at some level the year prior or is pre-season all american. If no one qualifies on D then offense should be considered.

I guess I want 18 to be the guy that is LSU through and through and beloved by the team, coaches and fans and 7 to have legit skins on the wall.

You sound like a woman

This was probably the best day game ever in TS simply due to the buildup and the fact we were still dealing with the concept that LSU never plays well
or wins big games in the day in TS.

I remember Saban even having to address that idea. UGA was loaded too. I was doing a rotation in New Orleans and decided I was gonna drive up and try and buy a ticket to the game that day. I vividly remember finding one for $80 and felt like the guy was trying to screw me. But it was getting close to kickoff and ticket was in lower bowl. $80 back then felt like $450-500 now.

I said F it and bought it. That game alone taught me that money comes and goes but a memory like that is difficult to come by. I was by myself around fellow tiger fans that I had never met and we had the time of our lives.

One of the top 3-5 games I have seen in TS since the 90s.

Because of this thread I am gonna watch it tonight since it got put back up!

I can’t believe it hasn’t been mentioned yet in almost 3 pages. It has been alluded to but not specifically said.

Mental game is massively important.

I am not a scratch player bc I started golf too late to dedicate the time and learn the muscle memory to really have great mechanics. That said, I was down to a 6.

I have always noticed my best rounds are when I stay positive no matter what happens. I may get angry for a minute or two after a shot, but if I can quickly move past that and back to believing I can still play well and make up for mistakes it makes a huge difference.

The rumors were that he/his family wanted to move inside because of nfl money projections. Whether that is true or not idk.

But when it was apparent his speed was negated and he didn’t have the size/strength to shed blockers inside, he should have been moved outside again.

I still believe he should’ve been a SS for us in the mold of a Jamal Adams.

People tried to say he was a liability in coverage but he consistently graded high in coverage metrics per PFF.

The injury as stated above drug out the perception of underperforming, but he made a lot of big plays. He would 100% still be starting for us this year had he stayed.
