Posted by ellis mike the tiger on 1/14/20 at 12:43 pm

[quote]I have no idea what the right answer really is.[/quote] Just went back and checked. Miles got win #40 in his 48th game. We lost his 49th game, the 27-21 OT loss to Bama at home when Lee threw 2 pick 6's. When we started OT, announer cam on with the "The sun has now found it's home in th...

[quote]If LSU wins 2011, Les is probably still our coach right now. [/quote] As much as I liked Les, if this were still the case, we would still be at 3 NCs. As much as the anger from that year got to me, and still kind of do when I thought about it, last night erased it all for me. I love whe...

re: Joe Burrow & Company LSU, SEC & NCAA Records (THEY'RE STILL GOING!)

Posted by ellis mike the tiger on 12/11/19 at 11:24 am

If you are counting bowl games, you need Rohan's 444 from the '02 Sugar Bowl in the top 10 for passing yds in a single game. Also, need to highlight Burrow's 2018 season passing yards in bold to keep with the formatting. Not trying to be that guy with this comment, but it took me much longer tha...

I haven't been in the union since the renovation was complete. Wife and I are taking our daughter to her first game tomrrow.

re: Does it concern you that we used two trick plays in one game?

Posted by ellis mike the tiger on 10/19/15 at 9:27 am

[quote]Does that concern you? Do we have any more in the bag?[/quote] No concern at all. Trick plays not only used for a spark if you will, but are also used when you see something that can be exploited. Florida had a highly ranked rush defense. Everyone is running to 7 when he gets the ba...

Alabama seating assignments

I put this on ticket exchange, but I'm hoping to get a quicker answer here. Does anyone have their seating assignments for the Bama game? I am wanting to buy two tix for my wife and I, and I would rather be sitting a little farther away with our fans, than closer in a sea of gumps....
