THIS!

:geauxtigers:

There are plays to be made vs their Def, and our Def will put pressure on their qb forcing some mistakes. I don’t expect their wr’s to be running free in our secondary either. The windows will be small for his throws.

GA will give us some good tape. I like the matchup, specially if T. Green is back, at home. GT!

My dad told me to pay myself first.

30 years of investing in various stocks and other investments has resulted in the accumulation of wealth.

We got rich slowly.

Exactly, be consistent by paying yourself first. When you get a raise, bump your investments accordingly. I also learned yrs ago NOT to look at things daily or chase a bright shiny object. Look at them at the end of the month, and watch over the months and years (with contributions, dividends & gains) your balances increase.

Don't get spooked by downturns (housing mkt crash & COVID). It has been amazing to watch dollar-cost-averaging work very effectively over the last 30 years.

Easy to choose MSFT or AAPL for long-hold gains with their stocks or funds with them as holdings, but when I first started investing in the mid-90's it was LUCENT. It was a spin-off of AT&T and had one of those meteoric rises (where thankfully we took some profits), until its sharp decline about 10 years later. Learned quite a bit about the world of investing from owning that stock.

I just hope we keep it close. I feel like reality is gonna catch up this weekend.

I’ve seen this movie before

No doubt, next four against Bama, LSU, OK and Texas will tell you a lot about your QB & team... Good luck (except vs LSU). :cheers:

The REAL ID should be more than sufficient. My wife and I had to produce multiple forms of ID for issue in N.C. It is employed in ALL 50 states and is the minimum standard for state-issued driver’s licenses and ID cards.

I feel good with Keys though. He is in his 3rd year and has been a solid contributor the entire time. I was really pleased with what Singleton showed.

Concur, I feel good about our LB depth and as a group they should continue to play well within Coach Baker's scheme. Keys & Dottery will continue to make plays.

The strength of this DEF is NOT one player, but the collective play of multiple, talented guys at each level doing their jobs very well. With that said the injuries are piling up. Hopefully WW will be back before the Bama-Tx-Tenn stretch.

I said to friends before the season started, our team would be in good shape being 3-1 after week 4 and here we are, but unfortunately with some key injuries. Our loss was a one-score game that took the home team & crowd to the limit. Looking forward -

UK goes to SC before they host LSU. This will be tough game on the road especially if some of the injured guys are not available. With that said, we have the better roster, coaching staff, and should be able to pull away in the 2d half.

State plays Alabama & a bye before coming to Tiger Stadium. We'll learn a lot more about State next Saturday, and hopefully get some good tape from Bama on how to defend K. Taylor and exploit State's D.

Aub plays Tenn, bye & GA before hosting LSU. I hope both Tenn & UGA take a little bit out of them before we come to town. I like the matchup following a physical GA game.

The McNeese game comes at a good time, and barring further injuries the team should be postured well to navigate the following three SEC games before we get to the bye and a brutal home stretch.

Our team showed a lot of grit and character bouncing back like they did last night. Looking forward to seeing additional players step up and help us move forward.

It’s called 2d term TDS.

“Remain calm, all is well”….and then he gets trampled.

Agreed, tough spot for any guy playing a new position (STAR) in that game vs that qb. The guy was a top 5 player out of TN as a HS player. While he was suspect in coverage last night lets hope his speed and athleticism help him execute his duties and contribute.
