What a great game!
Took my son to his first LSU game. The rain drove away all but the most die hard MU fans. But LSU fans were there in force. It was like a home game.
It was great to sit with all the LSU fans from far and wide. Thanks to everyone who showed up and made it such a great experie...

[quote]Not great, but decent.[/quote]
Yeah. Agree.
Some negatives:
The fade was a bad throw. The INT wasn't so much a bad throw as it was a bad choice. He showed poor pocket presence once (that I can remember) and got sacked. The miss to Landry for the TD is on Mett, but Landry didn't exactly h...

Right. Can't say for sure unless the coverage is known. If they were in an underneath zone, then jumping the short route is the correct assignment. Of course, in that circumstance, he should probably try to get a bump on the outside guy to slow him down so the s...

| re: Will this be the year LSU definitively decimates Auburn on the Plains? - taf on 9/10/12 at 12:22 pm
One of the most satisfying aspects of last season was the beat down of Auburn. It wasn't just the score. The Tigers seemingly took their will to play. Man, I love thinking about that game.
I guess we should never underestimate Auburn at home, but, yes, I would love to pummel them at Jordan-Hare.
