I rolled my eyes at a gun attack on an SR. But with the turn and the probable intercept being done by a Mig 31 Foxhound (Mach 2.8 capable) it is “slightly” possible, although improbable.


I hate when people write of a movie for some minor technical issue but I had to do it here. I love the SR-71 and couldn't get past the idea that it would get shot down by a Mig with guns. There is no shot that a SR-71 pilot would ever put themselves in that position with the speed and ceiling that plane has. The writers should have come up with something else.

As I said, you are worried about the outlier. There is much more of a chance of a non-contact injury from a headfirst dive.

If you slide head first, you are going to get hit in the back, and that’s a lot better than the face and chest. Not to mention if you slide head first you will get several more yards on the play.


Almost all QB slides go off with no or very little contact. You are worried about the outlier situation. The chance of a non-contact injury diving headfirst I bet, has a much higher possibility of occurring than possibly being injured from being hit going feet first.

Quarterbacks know the rules. You are down when you start to give yoruself up and they are all told dont slide late.

Koki asked who the starting quarterback will be Saturday. Do they really think coach is gonna give that information out? So our competition, we'll get the heads up?


They know they won't get an answer but they will be writing about a need a quote from the coach. I don't get the vitriol some of the reporters get on here. Its a game they play and so do the coaches. Does it hurt to ask, no.

Other than the chick who used to basaeball she sucked.

I believe this is already occuring internally.

The roughing the QB call is BS but it’s been a rule for a few years and they call it everytime.


No, they don't. There is zero consistency to this call and it is rarely called this way in the post season (unless its Mahomes). There is no consistency to the officiating product from crew to crew.

Two constants in life the ref find a way to screw over the Saints and we can't cover a TE I think Vernon Davis just caught another pass.

something about Clark that has that "It" factor to me when I see him play.. It's something rare.


I like Clark but he hasn't seen any snaps when it actually mattered. Its easy to have the "it factor" when you have zero pressure on you.

I would love to have known the conversations Kiffin had with him. I wonder if it was just a bigger NIL number.
Two games into Jason David's first season he had probably been responsible for 5 touchdowns and dont forget about Jarius Byrd. Also Brandon Browner would have been called for holding on that Jackson INT at the end of the game and we would have eventually lost.

Dude was acting like Kiffins entire career at LSU will be useless if he doesn’t beat Ole Miss tomorrow


Way to many people are claiming that all of this pressure is on LSU/Kiffin because he doesnt win he shouldnt have left. If LSU loses it wont be good but if Ole Miss losses with all they have put into this game it will be a massive blow.

I will say, if that particular situation comes to fruition, they won’t be able to keep fans off the field.



The possibility of Ole Miss winning at the buzzer and storming the field is not some off the wall scenario. I would assume Ole Miss has some plan for it. While no one would attack Kiffin you would for sure have people trying to get in his face and getting wrecked by LSP, would be a bad scene.

Not surprising with the dead on arrival retreads they hired at head coach and oc.


This is always helps with my argument that being a coach in the NFL is simply who you know. The cycle of failure and mediocrity that happens NFL mainly and other pro sports is wild.

So if a quarter back brings the ball up and the balls falls out of his hand why is that not an incomplete pass because he began the trowing motion?
