Reasonable rant and valid.

3 generations of LSU graduates here. No way I'll ask my grandkids to consider our beloved school. Unfortunately, LSU made a transition to ghetto culture 5-7 years ago. It's not going to change anytime soon. My wife has never been to a game - I won't take her, and I don't want to see it now the way it is. It's just a shame.

O-line -- no love today?

Why no threads on the decent play from the O-line today? Last week it was every other post on how bad they were. Let's give them some props - 0 sacks, 3 tfls for only 9 yards total. Decent run blocking. They deserve a little positivity today for a good effort.
The other areas may actually be better as far as actually hearing the announcers.The screens are massive, and the seating is good. In the dome area, it's kind of like sitting in the stadium. You don't always hear all of the TV discussion. There's a regular TV view kind of high on the ceiling, but during non play time they sometimes play music or do giveaways. But the experience of the dome is really kind of cool.
I honestly thought we'd win, but the loss kind of buries the hatchet in the whole Kiffin leaving saga. They got their due, got to gloat and vent, and we weren't that hurt by it. We're gonna keep getting better, and I bet we see them again this year at some point. Things won't be the same then.

Maybe play in a brace in 2-3 wks depending on ligament situation. Luckily it's his non dominant arm.

For once in history

Can we say that the refs actually called a decent game?

Sure, the usual missed holds that look one sided. But in general, no unfair or ridiculous targeting calls, a reasonable reversal, and a PI call that went our way at a critical time.

I appreciated that they weren't the storyline.
I agree -was honestly surprised to hear him get this riled up. It was actually kind of a concern I had about him when we hired him. No longer concerned at all lol.
Good summary - so is this all a one time thing? In years going forward, will guys who leave a year early have the option to return for their last year if they don't make a roster?

Seems like a lot of fuss for a one year event, if that's the case.
Anyone ever have shingles in the rib or oblique area?

If he has a cyst affecting the same nerve root, maybe near where the rib attaches, he would have the exact same symptoms every time the cyst contacts the nerve root. My guess, and it's just a guess, is that it was seen on an MRI, and a selective nerve root injection was probably done to confirm that the cyst was the source of the pain. Probably coincidentally in December when he began feeling better.

I have a hard time believing an MRI of the thoracic spine wasn't done extremely early in this process. My guess is that it was.
Only three schools had higher winning percentages during his last tenure here in SEC play - Kentucky ( Calipari), Tennessee (Barnes), and Auburn (Pearl). That's good company, and I'll be happy to be back in that kind of crowd.
Yep our guys literally just standing in place. No offensive sequences. Nothing. Hard to believe they are this badly coached.
How about 2 years as head coach, with Sheppard as associate head coach in waiting. It's basically a mentorship, and it gives LSU fans confidence that Sheppard is ready to be a long term head coach. I like that idea. But there's no way in heck Saban is coming back to coach at 74 lol.
It's funny to me that Sumrall is summarized by what happened with Napier. I guess if Napier had been more successful, then everyone would want Sumrall. Both positions would be unrelated to actually how good of a choice he is.

He's the best choice on that list, and a good personality fit.
Sounds like Kelly recognized Wilson was dealing behind him and wanted him gone. No idea, but that would make sense.
Its not that we're worse - it's just that it was a lot more fun when us and Alabama were the only two schools that installed NIL 10 years before it passed. This parity thing where everyone gets to do it sucks.
I'm convinced we're 7-0 with Pavia as our QB. That's all I need to know about our O line and Nuss.
I'm not sure - but I do know this. I am the same exact age as BK. I've been a surgeon for 35 years. I can still do surgery as good as I ever could, and I know a lot of things I didnt know 25 years ago.
But do I want to take on the big, complex cases anymore? Stay up all night doing high adrenaline trauma cases? Hell no! I am content now to work 8-5 and not take call. My ego no longer requires me to do the difficult stuff. I see this exact same demeanor in BK, and I know what he's feeling. I think about retirement every day, and I know he does too. This is the entire issue, and I have zero doubt about it.
They are more concerned with making MIP arrests at the frat parties than this. Balances their numbers racially, and generates revenue.
There's only one answer for that defense - Nuss has to take the free 10-15 yards it gives him. Eventually they have to change. His absolute complete avoidance of any risk of physical contact has cost us multiple games.
If Nuss continues to refuse to run, they really only need one to rush. Any hint of pressure and he's going to panic or fold. Continuing forward in the SEC without a quarterback who can keep defenses honest with the occasional run, is a recipe for failure.

Dude are you seriously going to try to out stat this guy lol.

Reminds me of an old saying, "never try talking teeth with a dentist..."
