[quote]Right now what bowl game we play in doesn't matter. All that matters is we keep a winning tradition. I'm just so happy to take the field.[/quote]

 | Chick-Fil-A teams win totals, last 15 years - OldManRiver on 12/2/12 at 5:49 pm 10 wins - 3 times
9 wins - 2 times
8 wins - 3 times
7 wins - 7 times
So 3/15 times a 10 win team goes to Atlanta, and LSU gets the honor twice? Thanks SEC for all the hard work you do....

 | I think we can blame Northern Illinois for this one - OldManRiver on 12/2/12 at 5:13 pm I have no doubt had Oklahoma been in the BCS, that Texas would have been in the Cotton. And had that happened, no way in hell would A&M and UT played that bowl game, all the power brokers in Texas would have made sure of that. LSU-UT would be a big draw and the Cotton Bowl would have been all over...

 | Bad year for the bottom of the league to be so putrid - OldManRiver on 11/25/12 at 12:33 am 2 winless teams winless in the the league, plus 2 others whose only win is over one of the winless teams. That equals a lot of extra wins for teams that normally wouldn't be there.
That's why 10 wins got Arky a BCS bowl 2 years ago, and this year 10 wins is going to get somebody(probably us) Chi...

 | Mett breaks a 23 year old LSU "record" - OldManRiver on 11/20/12 at 2:21 pm It's not really a record, but there wasn't a good way to explain it in the title. For the first time since Tommy Hodson in 1989, an LSU QB has thrown for more than 250 yards in 3 consecutive SEC games.
Does this shock anybody else as much is it does me? Hard to believe Rohan or Jamarcus didn't ...

 | For the TS is too expensive crowd, what should tix cost? - OldManRiver on 9/9/12 at 9:50 pm I've seen several posts about how the "wine and cheese" crowd has caused the downfall of TS, and how the joe six-pack balls to the wall Tiger fan is priced out and just can't get in no matter what.

 | Brees now the leading passer in the NFL - OldManRiver on 11/21/11 at 11:21 pm Brady went for 234 tonight, so Brees stays first with 3326 yards through ten games.
Marino's per game average in 1984 was 317.5. Drew is at 332.6, Brady at 326.6, and Rodgers is now a shade behind at 316.8. It's hard to believe that at least one of these guys won't break the record this year...
