How well will OM do against LSU’s defense

---------------------------------------------------------------

LSU’s defense hasn’t faced a real team yet.
---------------------------------------------------------------

Perhaps LSU has played no one yet, but just for a factual point:
When OM played Louisville, they were ranked 24th in the AP poll.
When LSU played Clemson, they were 23rd in the Coaches poll, so...
"Is Sark trying to overtake Kiffin as the biggest douche in college football?

Seems like maybe"

Sark has a history of following in Kiffin's footsteps and trying to go beyond him, so... :lol:
On the pick 6, it looked like the db pushed the receiver and he was stumbling just as he should have been able to make the catch.
The court hearing scheduled for yesterday, concerning giving the SEC the right to vote on kicking LSU out of the conference was postponed, since the point was moot, but the regularly scheduled SEC presidents mtg was happening even before the eviction issue came up.
I'm not sure Sankey can ever show his face on campus again... and I'm ok with that.

Accurate reporting?

I've already been so frustrated with the media and the SEC calling these 2 young men "NFL players", as if they were longtime NFL veterans (I bet those who actually played in the league wouldn't consider them that), but now the focus on CLK's halftime comments, with only PART of the comment being used, is just maddening!
First, Lane considered the comment to be off the record, but also, the quote everyone is pouncing on came after he said "You don't know how hard it was NOT to say..."
In a rare case of Kiffin trying to show restraint, he's getting bashed (especially in the amended lawsuit) for what he considered a PRIVATE COMMENT!
AND IT WAS FUNNY!!!
Over the last couple of years, there has been a major resurgence in faith in Jesus on college campuses around the country, especially among young men. ??
It's like back in the day with OBJ, every game they had to mention his hand size (10, I think?)
That rivals Kyren Lacy's story as the saddest, most depressing for an LSU player. :wah:
I was a freshman in 1982, and my first Sunday I went to Sunday School @ University Baptist (shocker, right?)
In walks the teacher and it's none other than Coach Jerry Stovall! Almost fell out of my chair!
Obviously he didn't make it after away games, but after Saturday night home games, he was usually there, teaching the Word!
See you soon, Coach!
I'm pretty sure the NFL has said that if they go back to college, they cannot play in the NFL this season
How about some big guys?
Andolsek, Mawae, Whitworth, Leonard Marshall, Booger, Spears...
Corey Webster put up some ridiculous numbers at corner
Pat Pete is a no-brainer!

[Why?]

I understand that you question the value, ESPECIALLY after seeing the response to ridiculous claims by Bama, and even more so, Auburn, but this is a different story since the NCAA already declares it to be so. It's ancient history, I get it, but for most of us, so is 1958, but that one matters (at least it does to me).
Now let's imagine a possible future where LK goes on a Saban-esque run, and wins 5 of the next 8 championships (I know, unlikely, but not impossible). If Michigan, USC & OSU don't win any in that period (I mean, these days, they have to beat IU to even win their conference, right?), then we can say, "We're in the top 3 in history for NCAA championships!"
Only Bama & ND would be ahead of us, and BOTH of them have some sketchy claims to titles. Ours would all be legit.
Having grown up in the mediocre '70s, attended LSU in the up and down '80s, and endured the awful '90s, that would be a pretty cool thing to be able to say.
None of it matters in eternity, but if our team is playing for championships and we want them to win one, why not also accept one that's already declared to be ours?
The all-time great rub it in your face move; better than cigars being smoked, taking sod, planting a flag on the logo, all of 'em.

Not sure why all the downvotes, but that was AWESOME! The anticipation built by switching just before the big play was made in the first half of the video really built suspense, and by the time you showed the completion of those plays, I had tears in my eyes!
Geaux Tigahs!
Perhaps the most surprising number to me is that there's only 1 from Mississippi. Seems like we've always got at least a handful of their best recruits on our roster.
If I can (at least initially) accept BK, I can do the same for Kiffin.
Donny Jones' walk-off punt with 8 seconds left to win the 2004 BCS championship. It had been SOOOOOO long since we'd won it all (5 years before I was born!) and watching the clock run out as the ball hung in the air and then rolled on the field was indescribable.
Faith Torres on bars landing swung her arms AND took a step. That's an automatic 2 tenths deduction, right? Yet she got a 9.85. Then she hops on the rebound on her final pass on floor, which should be at least a tenth deduction, and STILL gets a 9.95.
That's one tenth right there that would've been the difference in winning and losing.
1981 was the most disappointing, because they should have won it all. 2006 had so many extraordinary guys, but 1986 is my favorite. I was in the student section for the first 2 rounds, and then couldn't believe when they beat Kentucky after losing to them twice earlier in the season. What a ride they gave us!
Don't forget Anthony Wilson's buzzer beater to beat Memphis, too! PMAC went WILD!
