re: Now That It’s Basically Impossible For an SEC Team to Finish 15-0 Ever Again
Posted by Tiger Phil on 1/21/24 at 9:17 am
A team could have a non conference game cancelled due to a hurricane so they only play 11 regular season games, then win SECCG, round, of 8, semis and NCG for 15-0
IT COULD STILL HAPPEN...

re: 3/6 Schedule Matrix + Permanents
Posted by Tiger Phil on 1/20/24 at 8:53 am
Either way, your 3 permanent opponents are not nearly as big an affect on your schedule as the permanent opponent is now.
And 9 game is so much more entertaining. Give us quality football, not exhibitions....
re: 3/6 Schedule Matrix + Permanents
Posted by Tiger Phil on 1/19/24 at 5:17 pm
Many people cite the “unfairness” of having traditional powers as their permanent opponents. In particular, that was the argument by Alabama.
But the thing is that in a 9-game schedule, the permanent opponents are only 1/3rd of the schedule.
However let’s say there’s a demarcation between...

re: 3/6 Schedule Matrix + Permanents
Posted by Tiger Phil on 1/19/24 at 10:34 am
The puzzle aspect makes it an interesting discussion for me as well.
I will throw this in. LSU vs Alabama has been the most valuable regular season game over the past decade plus for ESPN/CBS. I firmly believe that is a game that ESPN will demand stays annual. With that, LSU-Alabama is a perma...

re: How heated do you think arguments will be moving forward for the last teams in?
Posted by Tiger Phil on 12/3/23 at 9:22 pm
I think that LSU and OU would have decent arguments over Penn St and Mizzou this year.
Consider that in the SEC, MIssouri and LSU had the same record, and we beat them. Mizzou needed a miracle field goal to beat lowly Kansas St, while LSU lost to an unbeaten conference champ. Pretty easy to s...
re: At #13 LSU would have missed the 12 team playoff
Posted by Tiger Phil on 12/3/23 at 2:42 pm
I think that OU and LSU should be in over Missouri and Penn State.
Penn state has 1 top 25 win - vs Iowa and schedule Delaware, Umass and West Va non conference.
LSU and Missouri have the same conference record, and we won at their place. Our extra loss is to #5 who is undefeated and they nee...

re: A&M and LSU should be playing a night game today

[quote]If they protect a rivalry for Texas then it will be Texas - OU. Which would leave LSU, A&M, Arky, Mizzou. Out of that scenario, give me Arky on the weird Black Friday timeslot. A&M can have Mizzou.[/quote]
I agree that Texas will have OU, and that will leave A&M to side with us. They...
re: A&M and LSU should be playing a night game today
Posted by Tiger Phil on 11/23/23 at 5:15 pm
I’m thinking there are 3 possible scenarios for scheduling past 2024:
[b]1) We stay at 1 fixed opponent[/b]
In this case, A&M and LSU appear to the the lone annual opponent. If this is the case then either:
A) LSU and A&M continue to play on Thanksgiving, and Texas and OU will rotate with ...

[quote]The new 12-team College Football Playoff field will include the six highest-ranked conference champions, which will receive automatic bids. The top four teams will receive a first-round bye to the quarterfinals. The six highest-ranked teams remaining will round out the 12-team format.[/quote]...
Jimbo's contract extension was not a reaction to LSU
Posted by Tiger Phil on 11/15/23 at 12:50 pm
Correct me if I am wrong, but Jimbo signed his extension in September 2021, while Orgeron was still the coach here. It had clearly been in the works for a while.
Its just plain wrong to attribute any reaction to LSU's situation to the extension, unless A&M was so certain we would fire Orgeron m...

re: How would targeting have changed the outcome?
Posted by Tiger Phil on 11/5/23 at 8:41 pm
Ejecting Turner for targeting would not have changed the outcome of the game.
It just really sucks to lose a player to an injury that happened as a result of an illegal play. It was flagged for roughing the passer. It almost seems that if you injure a player and it is directly attributable to...
re: LSU owns Bama at Bama the last 40 years

Alabama fans: [quote]Alabama is 5-3 with their current head coach versus LSU at home. That seems a lot more relevant than games at Legion Field in the 1980s.[/quote] “Don’t talk about the past it’s not relevant here.”
Also Alabama fans: [quote]If you will 28 games straight we will be tied i...
re: Three-Way Tiebreaker Update
Posted by Tiger Phil on 10/29/23 at 9:27 am
Here is how we stand on 29-Oct.
Recall if LSU, Alabama and Ole Miss win out, with the exception of LSU defeating Alabama, all 3 will finish at 7-1 and the pertinent tie-breaker will be the Eastern Division Opponent Records.
Yes, this assumes that Ole Miss beats Georgia.
LSU: Missouri (cur...
re: How many points will LSU score
Posted by Tiger Phil on 10/28/23 at 4:30 pm
[quote]Interesting analytical take by a Bama-biased article on how many points will LSU score on Nov 4. They mention low to mid 30s max. [/quote]
There’s some serious hand-waving going on in this “analysis”. He begins to look at the data, compare performances, etc., then just says “LSU can’t sco...
re: Michigan sign stealing story is a lot about nothing!
Posted by Tiger Phil on 10/26/23 at 9:26 pm
They first put communication in helmets in the NFL in 1994. That’s 29 years ago.
And yet we still do not have it in NCAA division 1.
The reason? It’s not cost. Come on.
It’s because coaches want there to be signals to steal. Plain and simple. They’re willing to signal in plays, bec...
