John Adams, Knoxville News-Sentinel, makes his prediction for the Aggies' bowl game:

Gator Bowl
Texas A&M 37, N.C. State 31: In a best case scenario for the Aggies, the game will go into overtime, and they will have the same officiating crew they had for their last game.

John Q was then portrayed by Denzel Washington in the iconic film.

Yep, we all saw late in the 4th quarter with a touchdown lead Orgeron too chicken to throw for a first down and actually put it away and win the game on offense. Orgeron cost LSU the ballgame. He's the head coach; its his mentality to sit on a lead and expect his defense to hold. This is more of the same from the Les Miles Regime.

Adams was also run out of town by Daddy Dale when he kept writing negative articles about the basketball program. As for the rips on Coach O, he's getting his extension and will be around for a while, so enjoy your negative-based life for the next couple of yrs. I'll move on.

Same for the 2nd half of LSU vs UofH basketball game. There were a number of possessions in the 2nd half that involved referee intervention..... Loose ball fouls, whistles on fouls just before LSU drains 3 pointer, etc. The referees were NOTICEABLE last night and that was unfortunate.

That's speculation on your part. So, lets also speculate tha pass you suggest gets picked off and run back for a score. I would speculate you would be railing at how stupid Orgeron was to pass in that situation. No matter what your whole intent is to throw shite at Orgeron who has won 73% of his games as LSU head coach. Wonder how many coaches in the poer 5 conferences can make that clai over the past three seasons?

You have to take that risk! Saban does. Dabo does. Riley does. You never wanna turn it to your defense late in the game on the road.

73% ain't sh*t!! Our program was at the top and near the top. We're not happy at 9 & 3 every season. Alabama is 11 & 1 or better EVERY year. LSU has the resources to be a 10 & 2 or better. You can take the 73% and shove it up your butt. Speaking of Power 5 coaches, Orgeron is one of the very few if any that would be such a pussy in a situation like that. Oh yeah, Les Miles is the other one.

Kind of.

I'm sick of these Orgeron excuse-makers. This is big business. There's no tolerance for these pussycats.
