re: Ever Been Swept by an SEC School in a Natty Year?

Yes. We got swept by Florida in 96. Seems like Kentucky swept us another year.

Dameyune Craig. Hated him at Auburn. Hated that he fricked up the Diesel Collins game, then he pulled that bullshite at the end of the 2018 A&M game coming at our bench and starting that fight when he was coaching the Aggies. Classless piece of shite.

re: Need to win out, Ole Miss to beat UGA
Posted by ffishstik on 11/2/24 at 11:48 pm
If we can't win these next 4 games, we don't deserve to be in. LSU SHOULD beat Bama at home if they can contain Milroe and not turn the ball over. They SHOULD beat Vandy at home, although Vandy is playing good ball. And Oklahoma and Florida just suck.
Win out. Win the SEC. Get a bye and first game at home. We're not looking to "backdoor" in. Let's kick the front door down an WIN THE WHOLE DAMN THING!
Also, Georgia is beatable and Texas is horribly overrated.

re: We should have a blackout next week.

Looked like we had a blackout last week in the second half. I felt like drinking myself into a blackout after.

We are currently in 5th due to tie breakers and the fact that we've only played 4 SEC games. And because of that, we do need some help to get into the SEC Championship game. BUT, I do agree with you. If we win out, I think 3 of the 4 teams ahead of us get a loss. It's guaranteed that 2 will because of head to head matchups.
ETA: LostinBR is right, the SEC site has us in 3rd. NCAA has us at 5. I'll trust the SEC site. Here are the tie-breaker rules:
In the event of a tie between teams competing for a place in the Conference championship game, the following procedures will be used in descending order until the tie is broken:
- Head-to-head competition among the tied teams
- Record versus all common Conference opponents among the tied teams
- Record against highest (best) placed common Conference opponent in the Conference standings, and proceeding through the Conference standings among the tied teams
- Cumulative Conference winning percentage of all Conference opponents among the tied teams
- Capped relative total scoring margin versus all Conference opponents among the tied teams
- Random draw of the tied teams

The last three coaches did and he is far better than two of them, so I'll say yes.

Can anyone recommend the best sportsbook on the strip
I would say the best sports book isn't actually on the Strip, but it isn't far from it. The Westgate Sportsbook is my favorite.
As for Fremont Street, you just have to know how to Fremont. I love it, actually, but it is definitely seedier than the Strip. As mentioned, the gambling is just better. I've had several "wait, when did the sun come up?" nights at the craps tables there, usually at the 4Qs.
Someone mentioned Absinthe, would recommend. Expensive, but it's fantastic. The Cosmo has a lot going on and they have a happy hour.
Someone also mentioned Mon Ami Gabi. Love that place, it's actually reasonable and if it isn't hot as balls you can sit outside and watch the Bellagio fountain

Ole Miss was 14-16 in the SEC in 2022 and barely made it in. Not saying I expect that kind of run, but this team has young talent if they can get on a run.
re: Which LSU names immediately evoke one single image?

A lot of them already said, but I haven't seen mention of Jabari Smith with the funky fake behind the back dunk on Arizona in 2000.
Trey McClure's triple play
I know he is known for being a sensational receiver, but Jarvis Landry on special teams against Auburn. He hit the returner so hard that the was noticeably scared to even try to field punts afterward.

That's a huge discrepancy between the PG and MLB rankings.
re: Which baseball commits do we need to be on the lookout for in the MLB Draft?
Posted by ffishstik on 7/5/23 at 10:57 am
This is baseball. The key is what the class looks like AFTER the draft. Plus, we only have 14 commits compared to 21 for Arkansas. We get the majority of those and do work in the portal again, we will be just fine.
re: What's been your postseason superstition?
Posted by ffishstik on 6/23/23 at 12:59 am
I have two. I have a wooden Free Beer token from Upstream Brewery that I rub during the Supers to get us back to Omaha. I also have several shirts that have meaning and have been lucky. I have the t-shirt that they gave out after the 2000 championship and 2009, the P&G "Geaux Tigers" t-shirt from Barrett's and, today, I wore my favorite, which has a story behind it. The short version is the cook at Barrett's literally gave me the shirt off of his back while we were getting hammered during a rain delay. It was nasty as AF, but I washed it up and still have it, still wear it for big games.
re: Hear me out on this pitching rotation idea
Posted by ffishstik on 6/21/23 at 11:10 pm
I'm not sure what their normal approach is for pitching, but Skenes would likely have had a side bullpen day today or tomorrow anyway. That's a limited pitch count and lower intensity than an actual game, but still, he would have likely gotten some throws in, so throwing him isn't crazy and he has had more rest than any of our starters. Depending on his pitch count tomorrow, you would also have an outside shot at getting some innings from him in game 3 on Monday if needed.
You don't leave Skenes on the bench in a must win game if he I available.

re: Have they announced home team yet?
Posted by ffishstik on 6/20/23 at 11:29 pm
Pretty sure that we will be home tomorrow because they have been home twice and we have been road twice, then a coin flip for Thursday's game.
re: Are we home or away tomorrow? Need to know to get ticket.
Posted by ffishstik on 6/20/23 at 11:26 pm
We should be home. Wake has been home in both games, we have been the road team twice.
re: The announcer rotations for the CWS sucks…

My buddy Gerard (Godfather1 on here) sent me a text last night that this would be a great drinking game, take a shot every time they say "Velo". I told him we would be in the ER by the stretch.
