LSU Season--summary and perspective

Posted by machismo64 on 11/26/23 at 3:29 pm
Lost 3 games to teams that between them lost a total of three games. The defense was a disaster of course but you still had to trot out a really good team to beat LSU this year despite this because the offense was so good. The Missouri win looks pretty good in retrospect as they only dropped o...
Georgia has climbed to dizzying new heights while Clemson, for a while a juggernaut, is back near its historical mean. I don't follow recruiting carefully but is this mostly explained by recruits that would have gone to Clemson going to Georgia instead? I know Clemson pulled a lot of talent out ...

Nasty Defense

Posted by machismo64 on 11/5/23 at 10:48 am
In the off season, there were a lot of people who looked at our Defense front 7 and said that they were going be "nasty". I took that word and phrase to mean something different than what I see on the field now....

Rauf says the Klan burned down his house. After two years and construction problems (shoddy construction it appears--ceiling collapse--sheetrock problems etc), and his girlfriend not willing to moving in, there was a fire. Rauf claims that he saw KKK spray-painted there in the past. Then it b...

Southern and LSU Band Performances

Posted by machismo64 on 9/17/22 at 7:18 am
It seems to be the consensus that Southern's band performed more entertainingly than LSU's though some say LSU's playing was technically better. I don't see a lot of marching bands as they don't usually show them on TV much, but I thought the part of LSU's performance where it looked like a coupl...

I have lived in the Birmingham area for 21 years now. I only go to Birmingham for the annual auto show, to visit people in hospitals, to go to the airport, and to go to church because the only Latin Mass parish in the diocese is in the West End. That part you drive through when going from New Or...
