What would the history of LSU be if Bo actually coached here? I think he was the real deal myself
I believe he spoke at a football banquet I attended. I know A.J. Duhe was there for sure, If Bo wasn't there, I remember lots of excitement about him. It's amazing I hadn't heard that name in almost 30 years and it brought up some memories.

It's all about ratings and getting people to watch.
They know Lou is a Notre Dame man, so that's all ESPN wants him to talk about.

It wasn't always like that.

I remember back a few years ago when Lou first hopped to ESPN he was a big time LSU guy. Or at least an SEC guy. That's because he just came from South Carolina, and that's how people expected him to act.

One time a few years ago Reese Davis said something bad about Tiger Stadium to the tune of, "Over the years, Tiger Stadium has been one of the most over-rated home field advantages."
Since he went to Alabama he thinks everyone wins there... So Lou got mad and said, "Have you ever coach in Tiger Stadium? I don't think so! It's one of the toughest places to go into and win."

So Dr. Lou has not always been 100% anti-LSU.

He does seem to dislike LSU. Not sure why. And he is the most ridiculous Notre Dame homer on Earth. Even before they lost to North Carolina and were 4-1, I'm pretty sure he was ready to vote them the #1 team in the country.

Colin Cowherd hates Alabama for some reason.

Holtz was not the coach we beat in the Independence Bowl...Bob Davie was. And Bob Davie was the coach who beat us earlier that season running the ball down our throats in BR with Dr. Tepper's 4-2-5 defense.
Cowherd is probably sick of the rest of the media's fellating Bama so much.
