re: Never in my life has a QB leading his team to 3 points
Posted by Minew on 11/18/11 at 12:26 pm
Never in my life has a fan base of the unanimous #1, 10-0 team kvetched so much about so little.
Not a full 7 days after victory in the Game of the Century, my kids and I had to listen to muttering, complaining fans all around us in Tiger Stadium throughout a 42-9 Homecoming win. I guess I should...

re: Why does OU and Bama have better odds at winning the BCSNC than LSU?
Posted by Minew on 11/16/11 at 9:43 am
The bookies posting here are correct. All the current, updated odds, LSU is the pick followed by Bama, OK. St., and OK.
In terms of work on the field, I'd still say LSU has the most to do of any of those to win out. However, it's possible that LSU could lose a game, either AR or the SECCG, and s...

To win the nat'l championship:
LSU has to beat Ole Miss, Arkansas, Georgia and the #2 team in the country
UA has to beat GA Southern, Auburn, and the #2 team in the country
OU has to beat Baylor, Iowa State, OK. St. and the #2 team in the country.
Though it controls its own destiny, LSU ...
re: Could this possibly be the best LSU "Team"
Posted by Minew on 11/10/11 at 10:03 am
Another way to look at it: their record over the last 10 game stretch would be hard to match:
While I'll concede that any "best stretch" should include an national or even conference championship, one could argue that last weekend's game came close. For degree of difficulty and dominance, this is...
Best 10 game stretch in LSU history?
Posted by Minew on 11/9/11 at 10:35 am
While I'll concede that any "best stretch" should include an national or even conference championship, one could argue that last weekend's game came close. For degree of difficulty and dominance, this is pretty impressive for a 10 game stretch:
10 victories
9 BCS conference teams
7 ranked teams...

re: Pretty good read on Saban vs. Miles at LSU
Posted by Minew on 10/31/11 at 1:10 pm
DiNardo may have been an awful coach but he was a good recruiter. He began the run of top recruiting classes that has not abated since. Before DiNardo, LSU routinely lost the top recruits in the state to other programs, especially recruits from New Orleans. DiNardo changed that and LSU has benefitte...

re: Miles' handling of J. Jefferson and playing time
Posted by Minew on 10/2/11 at 4:47 pm
Beautifully handled. Said: No, he's not starting but he's not punished either. He will get significant snaps. Team, get ready for it. Opponents, get ready for it. Fans, get ready for it.
He giftwrapped the message with 6 points and a demonstration of what Jefferson can still offer.
Nice....

re: Where/How can I watch this weeks game in East Texas?
Posted by Minew on 9/7/11 at 11:39 am
To sum up, inside the state of Louisiana, Tigervision holds the broadcast rights and lsusports.net holds the internet rights. Within the state, you can pay-per-view it on either.
Outside of Louisiana, ESPN holds both the broadcast and internet rights. You can watch on espn3.com (now available at ...

Posted by Minew on 10/15/10 at 10:18 am
Thanks for your interest Josh.
Lee hasn't had that particular pressure this year. What pressure he has had, he has handled, except perhaps early in the TN game. I am simply suggesting that he may be more relaxed and comfortable because he does not bear the weight of the position alone, as he did...
