What is the family issue with LSU? There is none. Peyton and Josh Booty wer ein the class of 1993 and Booty committed to LSU so Peyton immediately looked elsewhere. David Cucliffe was at Ole Miss and his tutelage of Peyton at Tennesssee along with the Ole Miss connection was enough for Eli to choose Oxford. maybe if our " fans " would quit regurgitating negative comments at every mention of Manning possibly LSU has a legitimate shot at this latest Manning assuming they believe he is worthy in three years.


It goes way further back than that. LSU crushed Ole Miss and Archie 61-17 back in 1970 when Archie played with his broken arm in a cast. LSU just relentlessly pummeled him and Archie never got over that arse whipping.

This is completely not true. LSU had nothing but respect for Archie having lost the previous 2 years to him and Ole Miss and respected that he was playing with such a injury. LSU's defense went out of their way not to destroy him or try to further hurt him when it could have been easy to do so. This was so evident that Archie's Mom wrote a letter to Charlie Mac thanking him and his team for not taking advantage of the situation.
