So, Murray State wasn't "last" this year... they were a 4 seed that had to win their conference tourney to get in. Which is why people are saying the better comparison is Fresno State, and not Ole Miss.
Ole Miss was good enough to get an at-large bid that year, while the 4 seeds weren't.

Something most smart people knew would happen the moment you hired him, which is why we laughed at the hire despite all the LSU posters claiming “even Ed O can win a natty at LSU.” The only question at this point is how many $s is it going to take for you to get rid of him.

I just don't get all the trolling about Brian Kelly at LSU.

In all seriousness- we were snubbed by our top choice after firing Miles, left scrambling and settled for Orgeron (interim guy, that nobody else in the country wanted). Yes, he won a Fiesta and then a Natty, but then proceeded to dismantle 20 years' worth of program building in a flash. We became a .500 team getting torched by middle of the pack teams.

We spent money, and pulled Kelly from Notre Dame. His job was to stop the bleeding, and he did that. If we scheduled cupcakes to open the season like most teams without delusions of grandeur, we'd have been 10-2 twice and 9-3 once. As it was, we opened against solid teams, started slow each year, and went 9-3 twice and 8-4 once. Made Atlanta once, and lest you forget, if we beat Fla or A&M, last year we're in Atlanta again.

We're not where people WANT to be, but he pulled us out of a death spiral. We have no room to talk shite to anyone, but we're stable. You can try all you like, I won't feel bad about that.

I'm always blown away when I see people say stuff like this about all this sequels that have come out over recent years.

This is going to suck. You know it will, deep down.

Top Gun: Maverick

What you need is the formula from that- the original creative team, with enough of the original cast for fans to reconnect, and true to the original spirit of the first movie.
First and foremost, this needs to be a Mel Brooks movie, which means farcical comedy with crude, politically incorrect jokes. Jokes that offend anyone who takes themselves too seriously.

I don't know if even Mel Brooks has the juice to get that done in this climate. I hope he does, but we all know most of his films would be protested today.

Knowing Cassian's backstory made the end of Rogue One put a lump in my throat.

I was very flippant when they announced Andor at first, but I was gladly proven wrong by how powerful the story was.

---

I've not seen Rogue One in years, definitely not since watching Andor.

Honest question: how well does that hold up to this series? What I seem to remember, it was still fairly dark and gritty (a plus in this case), but was focused on Jyn Erso's point of view- not necessarily a bad thing at the time, but she's definitely a side character now that we know who Cassian is. And that Andor was portrayed as a "good" guy with questionable ethics, making a point out of shooting the injured guy early, and then sent to kill Galen Erso.

Does it hold up, does it seem better, or does it seem weaker now that we've got this show under our belt?

This, for those whose panties are getting in a wad.

However, it was stupid to not play earlier. It's been sunny all day outside, could have got this game in and wrapped it up by now. Around 4:30 where I am (Central), it's now getting real dark and you can hear a couple rumbles. Your basic late afternoon summer shower pattern, as it starts to cool the 99% humidity will turn into clouds, then rain.
Anyone who lives here knows that's what happens.
