Tomorrow

Tiger Fans,

Times are tough. In all likelihood, our one loss will be enough to keep us out of the SECCG. Our offense can't put up points despite having some of the most talented players in the country. Our once thought great defense gave up over 440 yards on the ground two weeks ago.

A very talented Alabama team comes into our house tomorrow looking to deliver the knockout punch on another season. I am happy to say that I believe we have them right where we want them. LSU is most dangerous when we are counted out by everyone.

Overrated. Undersized. Underutilized. That's all we hear from the outside. But LSU is something much bigger than a group of guys in shoulder pads and helmets. It represents a culture and a way of life. It is a belief to some, and a religion to others. It is about being tough and hard-nosed rather than being pretty and unflawed.

I agree that Tiger Stadium is a shell of its former self. I also believe, however, that the former self manages to rise for certain occasions. Tomorrow afternoon, I expect the ghosts of '79 USC to rise from the grave. I expect the Chant from '03 UGA to bring us back one more time. The jubilant madness that was the '97 UF game will show up again. I expect the great people of South Louisiana to be fighting for their livelihood.

Let's make those overconfident, self-entitled gumps never forget tomorrow. Let's help our beloved Tigers achieve an earth-shaking victory. Let's party deep into the night as the sports commentators scratch their heads. Let us put a mark on this Fall before it once again slowly fades into Winter. Get out there early, and get ready to get LOUD! See y'all tomorrow.
