Can you list the standards?

Nice graph - can you show total penalty yards by year? Or did you just select # of penalties because your graph looked better?

Half those calls are against that one fat arse OL for false starts.

I think it’s quite obvious that Stein was a big part of Oregons recent success so I wouldn’t peg him as some inexperienced “first time head coach”.

We should have won that KY game 4 different times and we didn’t. It’s on both Baker and Kiffin, but Leavitt is also to blame for those 2 horrendous turnovers. The sack fumble was inexcusable.


On Golding, Ole Miss players played the most high-energy, emotional game of their lives. And we should’ve beat them too - Leavitt missed wide open guys to take the lead before the game tying field goal and on the touchdown to potential tie with the 2pt.

Leavitt needs to play better and his lack of spring practice has showed but he is progressively getting better and seems like a leader of the team.

Let’s judge this season in its entirety, a lot of ball left. Can go either way at this point but I think we have a lot of potential to improve on offense

The most perplexing thing this entire season is: why the hell can’t Leavitt throw on the run? He would be incredible if he figures that out

Saban knew how to do the 2 things required in CFP to be successful in that era and did both better than anyone at the highest level.

First, he knew how to coach the X & Os on defense and scheme with the best and he demands everyone to buy in. The results on the field then prove it to the players and a culture is established.

Second, and more importantly, he knew how to build a program and knew the resource required to sustain it.

Once the program & resources are established, he could literally just build a pipeline of talent year after year. Next guy up was a stud, the next guy up was a stud and so forth. The promise of the NFL and NFL money drove decision making and Bama was a pipeline to the NFL.

Transfer rules and NIL broke that pipeline and instead of next man up it, it became the NFL but everyone on the team signed 1 year contracts. I would’ve left too.

I feel lucky - I saw us beat bama twice. 2010 (Deangelo Peterson 4th down end around) and 2011 GoTC. Also experienced the most heartbreaking losses in person. I had a front row seat with PP7 interception that wasn’t, 2011 do-over in the natty and the Yeldon screen (yeldon screen pass hurt the most by far)

What type of question is this? How do you watch a game without LSU gear on.

Even if u can’t watch - you still wear it.

Your question might as well said do you wear clothes on a Saturday when LSU is playing. Rhetorical. At least if someone answered no it would be funny

This x1000 and they use light shows while turning the volume up to disguise it.

Hope every Pom Pom gets lit on fire after the game

Just in case it hasn’t been posted or for anyone making the trip to Oxford for the first time -

AVOID DRIVING IN OXFORD IF POSSIBLE

Use UBER or other ride share. Pay the extra money / surcharges for peace of mind.

Oxford has always had numerous DUI Checkpoints for Friday / Saturday Night but I expect this weekend will be on steroids. Also, parking will be a disaster everywhere.

Can you save us the time and relay what you saw?

What the hell does attempt to roster NFL players mean? Sankey could barely explain it and the “rule/definition” didn’t even exist when this alleged recruitment took place.

I guess all these other NFL rookies never talked to the coach, school or team when they were allowed to join back in NCAAF. They just showed up at the school and never got recruited.

Over the last 4 years, the fabric of college football & the landscape was being radically changed. However, the conference executives never made a single effort to stop it (likely too busy to care as they counted their money, realigned conferences that make no geographic sense or expanded further so they could count more money).
 
All of a sudden - the SEC comes out and creates unilateral powers to stop basically anything with punishments that are harsher than anything thrown around before - Why now?

Trying to make sense of this ridiculous situation, the only thing I could rationalize is - that the NFL stepped in and used their influence to immediately put a stop here & now before this progressed any further.

The mobility between the NFL & NCAAF is novel, and the NFL might be thinking that it creates the potential to meaningfully blur the lines between their monopoly machine and the minor league NCAAF system that feeds the machine for free exploitation.

Other consideration that supports this theory is that it also isn't just the conferences - The Entire Media (which we know the NFL controls) has completely crafted the narrative that 'LSU is actively targeting / recruiting "professional NFL players" to return to college'.

Hardly ever a mention of other teams/situations & what was allowed vs not allowed. They just point to Lane Kiffin as the pariah who created this entire mess. Heck, more than 50% of folks actually think LSU sued the SEC & NCAA to start the fight!

It wouldn't take much reporting to provide the audience more context.

(A) Little to no mention / attention on the issues surrounding the 5 for 5 & the Class of 2022

(B) No mention or attention on the amount of money these "NFL Players" received from their "contracts"

(C) Not even a single breakdown on how the process / agreements are different for rookies attending mini-camps (who are allowed to play) & players that attended training camp.

How is this not explained when the outcome/punishment couldn't be more different - Player is allowed to play without punishment if attended only rookie camp vs. Player is not allowed to play & the school athletics are kicked out of conference for even thinking about it

I am open to other ideas if other have them.

However, if this is simply the SEC targeting LSU, and particularly the methods used by Lane Kiffin / Will Wade / LSU athletic department for going all-in & leveraging alignment with the State to rebuild winning football / basketball programs, then that is absolute BS & insert Lane's halftime speech for my final commentary
