re: Dogpile in Hoover??

Posted by Pietra on 5/26/14 at 2:33 pm
Evidently a lot of you did not catch the reference to Lane Mestepey . A dog pile cost LSU one of the top pitchers in the US in 2003. Lane Mestepey, our ace, was injured in a dog pile and had to take a medical redshirt for the entire 2003 season. He never reached the level of his pre-injury pitch...
“…even tiger stadium were often hit on the bounce” – sounds nice, but I seriously doubt that Tiger Stadium ever had a bounce hit. Using Google Earth: from the old home plate to Tiger Stadium is 1,002’ +/-, to the Admin Building is 625’. ...

Your topic reads: “Do other teams fans make fun of our mullets?” I opened your post thinking that you were an Alabama fan who got confused as to where the SEC rant was. Then I saw that your question was regarding our Tigers and my first thought was that someone should take this poor, misguided i...

re: 1968 Sugar Bowl - LSU vs. Wyoming
