We converted a 4th down on the TD drive. On a penalty. The stats are wrong.

Unbelievable SEC slate today

One of the best single weekends I can remember. Even the “lesser” games are going to be fun and evenly matched.

And a great weather day on top of it.
They’ll have a great opportunity to see how far they’ve come one week from tomorrow in Spokane.
Best chance for a true upset: USC not only beats Indiana, they maul them. It will be interesting to see what the committee does with them when that happens.

Indiana is a house of cards ripe for the fall, skating by week after week against mediocre competition and getting beat at home by Ohio State sans Julian Sayin. Their best win is either Northwestern or Minn at home or Michigan on the road. And they are 4th. Honestly, I wouldn’t have a problem if Alabama was 4, Texas was 5 and Indiana 6.
Not me. I heard a lot of the pundits bitching that Texas has better wins and should be ahead of Bama, but their losses are much worse than Bama’s. I like that the precedent has been set that a 2-loss non conference-champion can not only make the playoff but can get a top 4 seed. Now the committee is stuck with that.
Remember as recently as about a month ago, everyone was running around going OHNOZ because we only had 4 players officially on the roster.

Also keep in mind this year’s team will be the worst roster Wade will have in his second tenure. Much like Kiffin said about the football roster.
Except for Alabama, who will always be the highest ranked team with their number of losses.
I loved his tirade when asked about dipshit’s comment that ULL should have been the 2 seed. He proceeded to give a masterclass on how the selection committee works. And did it with an attitude.

frick that…42-14
Ain’t no hangover like an Orgeron hangover….12-13 in 2020-21.
This totally got lost as it occurred while the Auburn game played out. FSU seems like a pretty decent ACC squad (definitely a step up from our prior exhibitions) and we hung with them the entire game. How did the “new” guys look?
I have one word for this game…survive. Win by any means necessary.
Ok that’s just freaky.

Just thinking ahead…remember the 2007 Auburn game.

Basketball is back!

I haven’t been this excited for an LSU basketball season since Wade was coach.

I never had the hatred for McMahon that some had. I wanted him to do well because it’s LSU, but Wade’s firing was my first time wondering about Woodward and his lack of balls.

It’s awesome that he’s back and the timing couldn’t have worked out better with the whole Kiffin thing happening simultaneously.

I miss the hatred for LSU that the month of August brought. That was the best PR ever!

And remember, the previous game there was the Interception Game…two games that epitomized the wackiness of this series.
DiNardo decided to NOT put the ball in Diesel’s hands on a crucial third and short late in the game that probably would have sealed it. Every time he touched the ball in that game he fell forward for 10 yards.
I think he’s one year younger than Saban was when he won his first title at LSU.
It’s funny. I was coming to post about feeling uneasy about that one, and lo and behold there were several posts about it. Especially at 11 am. I don’t like anything about that game.
Could not agree more. Run D is like the foundation of the house. No one ever looks at it, comments on it or cares about it, but if it’s faulty, everything else suffers.
