Kevin Minter was a bad man at MLB. He brought hammer every game.

Kwon was doing great as well before he broke his ankle

But Minter put on a masterclass

Kevin Minter had better stats than Manti Teo the year he was a heisman finalist

I sat next to Orlando Gunn in the swamp for this one. I believe Landry (maybe OBJ) fumbled what would have been the go ahead TD.

He was a smart player...read the offense well. He was smart in the classroom too.

Horrible game from the getgo. LSU forged a 6-0 lead early on two FG's and that was the extent of the offense that day -- pathetic. I think The Tigers made two first downs rushing that day, and Mettenberger, as per all of 2012, was quite ineffective.

That was a Les Miles special.

Waste of a great defensive effort. Minter and Kwon both had fantastic games.

Yet here we sit out of everything after the bama game. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Man you really show your ignorance everywhere.

Kwon broke his ankle that game. Out for season.

Two LSU linebackers left the game with injuries, which allowed Florida to score its first points of the game.

LSU Tigers linebacker Kwon Alexander broke an ankle against the Florida Gators on Saturday and may not play again in 2012.


Considering the injuries that season and the suspension of TM, the d was still miles better than this fricking shite show.

The very first hit on minters hype video looks just like Dallas Turner hit on JD5. But you are saying how awesome the video is. Not screaming about minter targeting. It's a little different when the guys on your team isn't it?

That’s an open field tackle on a RB my guy

(And fwiw im not one of these obsessed with the no targeting call. At least they called roughing)

Yeah, I believe he kept cramping up. That was one of the hottest games I can remember.

I was there and it was fricking miserably hot. The LB play was unreal. Florida fans were complete assholes but they readily admit if he hadn't had to leave the game LSU would have won.

Is that the game we lost and they scored their points on plays when he was on the sideline?


Yes, Florida ran the ball every play of their last TD drive and we couldn't stop them. Offense was atrocious with 3 turnovers and only 200 yards.

On a positive note, Florida has only beaten LSU twice since that game 11 years ago
