biggest beatdown in the history of a Texas U S Senate election
If recent polling trends continue, you may be right. Just two weeks ago Paxton was the favorite on betting markets to win in a high contested race, with a 54% chance to prevail. Today that contest definitely leans blue, with Talarico now a 70% likely winner.
It's apparent that likely voters for the US Senate race in Texas don't give a rat's arse what Talarico's church teaches. At least he has a faith; his opponent's religion seems to be one that breaks biblical covenants and exalts self-gratification.

That Western Kentucky game was the worst I've seen LSU play against an overmatched opponent since that loss to Troy. And that game underscored why MVB was never going to be a player on the Lane Train.

Trump needs to put his own picture up there. It has been just a litany of lies, from the word Jump!

His election is not in doubt
It's very much in doubt. He's getting a lot of pushback on the cannabis front. He's not as vulnerable as Paxton but I personally wouldn't be surprised if he's making a concession speech on Nov. 3rd.
Each one of the Senate campaigns that Trump has horned in on is losing support; two of them, Collins in Georgia and Whatley in NC are lost already, with the Democratic nominee regarded as SAFE in latest polling-- 95%+ likelihood of winning.
The others he has intruded in-- Michigan, Ohio and now Texas-- are also fading for the Republicans' chances. Now the POTUS is concentrating on Kansas, Nebraska and South Carolina. The New Trump Trope should be MABA -- Make America Blue Again!
Ironically the only Republican Senate candidates in "swing states" who seem to be doing better than earlier in the cycle are Susan Collins in Maine, and my favorite, Michelle Tafoya in Minnesota. And Trump has so far avoided those campaigns.

we missed 8 field goals
The game was played in a torrential rainstorm throughout. Why they kept attempting FGs given the playing conditions is anyone's guess.
The weather, not the uniforms, was the reason the score ended up that way.
Florida was notorious for putting us in purples when we played there. The October 2, 1965 game there was played in unrelenting sun, and heat. The Gators had their new hydration formula, fittingly called "Gatorade". LSU had no such relief that afternoon. That was the only game that you can make the case for the uniforms resulting in a loss.
Not the same situation as Cornell. That elicited more raw, primitive outrage.
Whiskey. Tango. Foxholes.!?

Since when is g/p/g a "novelty fad"? It's been an LSU football uniform for about 100 years. It's tradition.

Why can't they be worn for power 4 games, or for one SEC game/season? Are they still "cursed"?

That's correct, and they only became "cursed" in the mid-1960s. The notion of a "curse" reached a crescendo during the 6 year streak of losing seasons 1989-1994, lowlighted by Curley Hallman's 9-16 record in the purples.

Sen. John Kennedy vs Rahm Emanuel could be a compelling race.
Where does Kennedy stand on the Trump/MAGA Iran War?

0:13 remaining on the clock when Clayton made the catch, which led to a 29-25 Tiger win.
Now why did we play Kentucky up there two years in a row?

You're not in Texas. Hispanic voters have shifted BACK to the Democratic party, DISAPPROVING of Republicans now by a 67% -- 29% margin.
To quote a great philosopher named James Carville, "it's the economy, stupid", and for most working-class Texans, the economy sucks, thanks to an affordability crisis.
Abbott and Dan Patrick are currently in Toss-up elections, and Ken Paxton's Senate campaign is going in the wrong direction for him-- that race is now rated as "Lean Democratic" by Kalshi Markets.

Ossoff won't get over 50%
Absurd. Kalshi Markets rates this contest as Safe for the incumbent, with over a 95% likelihood of an Ossoff win.
Republican donors are diverting funds out of Georgia and North Carolina, in favor of Kansas and South Carolina, in an attempt to shore up those now shaky senatorial campaigns.
No way in the world Ken Paxton will win this contest.

Vandy should be ahead of Oklahoma and South Carolina. Either one of those latter two teams could go winless in the SEC (not both).
