When did this phrase come about?Sounds dumb. Much worse than holding up backwards “L”.

Then again our coach sounds like coach from waterboy. Must have been when he started.

Nevertheless, they did a nice job of filling needs of line today. Go Tigers!

Been around FOREVER. Certainly since 50’s-60’s if not earlier. It’s lyrics from “Tiger Rag”, jazz/swing song.

Honestly I don’t understand the sense in the saying either.

It's what the bama OL coach has used as his strategy for 80 years or so. Seems to work well.

When did you decide to masquerade as an LSU fan on an LSU message board?

Since I began in 1997. Just think the phrase sounds dumb and it seems to have gone mainstream lately.

The Coach from Waterboy sounded like someone with a MFA from Yale.

Or are you thinking of Jerry Reed?
