re: 1959 LSU - Clemson Sugar Bowl Game Video
Posted by drdrfaulkner on 1/4/20 at 11:08 pm
In the 1959 game, Cannon (future Heisman winner) threw a TD pass. It's going to be interesting to see Burreaux accomplish the same (but probably more than 1x).

re: How many fans of the Rant are 60 or over?
Posted by drdrfaulkner on 11/18/19 at 11:46 am
I'm 70. I remember listening to LSU football in the mid-1950s when we lived in DeRidder. My Dad was a 1950 LSU graduate, my uncle Bony attended LSU, my cousin worked at LSU, and my great-uncle E.G. Blakewood played on the 1922 football team. I have a photo of the 1959 team signed by Paul Dietzel. B...

Let's address Billy's crimes on the field and look at all he did in his field, He stole games from Bama, Tulane, Clemson, Ole Miss, and many others, as well as cavities from a lot of dental clients. He stole bad and turned it into good. Billy was my boyhood hero--I wanted to be like him as a player-...

USA has beaten most of the teams LSU has scheduled mid-week, along with Mississippi State. BTW, USA is NOT a little school. Perhaps not as big as LSU (31k), but with about 17,000 students. Beautiful campus in Mobile--with extensions located elsewhere....

re: Tiger Stadium field vandalized...again
Posted by drdrfaulkner on 1/5/17 at 8:40 am
My Dad (1950 LSU Graduate) told me that LSU and Tulane once had such an intense rivalry that some LSU fans planted "LSU" using winter rye in Tulane's football stadium and that fans from both teams would make bets that ended up with the losers painting their houses with the winning team's colors for ...

Is your grading here Norm-Referenced or Criterion-Referenced? A "C" in the first does not necessarily equal a "C" in the second. The first is based on everyone else's score--the second on the performance results. The grades this writer assigned are meaningless....

Also--be very careful about where you decide to park. There are many hucksters downtown around the stadium who don't own the lots and will take your money--then you find your vehicle towed because it was actually on property not even owned by the person "selling" the parking place. Make sure you par...
