re: What caused LSU Football's putrid 90's run?

Posted by Tallulahfan64 on 9/9/12 at 3:11 pm

[quote]purple jerseys[/quote] This is the answer. Of course, not being a supersticious man, I know that they had no impact whatsoever...but coinkedink? I think not. Joe Dean willingly accepting mediocrity (or even worse) from the football program might have had an impact, too. ...

re: Georgia is Pathetic

Posted by Tallulahfan64 on 11/27/11 at 12:33 pm

The silver is better than their standard dark pink jerseys. And while they're making changes, they should consider changing their fight song...never understood why they play "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" after every score. Shouldn't they be concerned that doing this, particularly in Atlanta,...

re: Did Gary just say "Before Bama plays Ok. State they need to beat Auburn"?

Posted by Tallulahfan64 on 11/26/11 at 5:08 pm

Well, he earlier said that Bama was playing all the teams that they're competing with for #2 (OK State, Stanford, Va Tech)...I think that's what he meant....

re: Trash talking by UGA fans

Posted by Tallulahfan64 on 11/26/11 at 5:00 pm

Georgia is playing solid football. Their record is inflated, however, since they didn't play the big boys from the west. And it's hard to respect a team that wears dark pink uniforms, and plays the battle hymn of the republic as their fight song....

re: Should a 5th Year Senior QB Be Handled With Kid Gloves

Posted by Tallulahfan64 on 11/16/11 at 4:34 pm

My fondest wish is that at the end of the year, we'll all look back at the QB situation and marvel at Les Mile's (and the two-headed O coordinator's) coaching and managing skills...as we roll over trying to sleep off the hangover we got, watching LSU acquire another national championship. I would...

[quote]Seems to me that JJ got the boo's but they were meant for Miles' decision to put him in.[/quote] This. I doubt most fans harbor much negativity towards Jefferson. They (including me) just don't want to mess with a successful team. And they (including me) don't want any doubt floatin...

re: Henderson scores!!!!!!!!!!!!Tigers win!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Tallulahfan64 on 10/1/11 at 5:07 am

I was on an aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf for this game. I had a $5.00 bet with a good friend of mine from Kentucky. We were in the Chief's mess (our cafeteria and lounge), Armed Forces Network was broadcasting a different game, but we had confiscated the computer at the back of the lounge....

re: LSU in the title game without winning the west

Posted by Tallulahfan64 on 11/8/10 at 12:32 pm

I think that LSU in the BCS championship IS possible, but unlikely (not as unlikely as needing West Virginia and Missouri to lose to terrible teams, though). Both Auburn and Oregon have to play their biggest rivals, on the road, with the rival knowing that a win destroys the soul of their biggest...
