re: as a long time football season ticket holder of your school
Posted by BenHOGan1 on 4/18/24 at 1:20 pm
Both of my kids are still in school there, so I enjoy going there on a Fall afternoon to tailgate with them and take them to dinner after games. Once they're out of school, I will most likely give up the season tickets. The way college sports is going right now - NIL, Portal, Realignment - is a big...

I used to volunteer at Nolan Richardson's golf tournament every summer. Met a lot of the coaches that attended and a few former Hog athletes.

Tubby Smith was one of the nicest people I ever met. Took time to thank us for volunteering. Very personable and made conversation.

re: Is anyone outside of Baton Rouge realistically picking LSU to win?
Posted by BenHOGan1 on 11/2/23 at 2:43 pm
I'd expect Bama to win; however, I would not be surprised to see LSU win a shootout something like 43-37. I base this off of watching the Hogs play both of them. Arkansas moved the ball pretty well late in the game against Bama. I could see LSU getting hot and simply out-scoring Bama....
