UM vs ND on different network NBC!


ABC wants the big ratings at 2:30 because they know Miami/Notre Dame is going to get the massive ratings in primetime.

The original coach to fight the NCAA and publicly trash the NCAA any chance he got. LSU basketball was a brand name from the late 70s to early 90s. Absolute legend.
I know this is kinda the nature of the NCAA tournament, but I always thought it was crazy how alot of Brown’s tournament teams either lost to a legit superstar or a team that made a deep run.

1979 - Magic Johnson Mich. St.(eventual national champion)
1980 - Darrel Griffith Louisville (eventual national champion)
1981 - Isiah Thomas Indiana (eventual national champion)
1985 - David Robinson Navy
1986 - Louisville (eventual national champion)
1987 - Indiana (eventual national champion)
1989 - Tim Hardaway UTEP
1990 - Ga. Tech (eventual final four)
1992 - Indiana (eventual final four)
1993 - Jason Kidd Cal

Losing to the eventual national champ in 5 out of 9 years is tough. If Rudy Macklin doesn’t break his finger the 1981 team wins it all. If Fess Irvin makes a free throw or the refs actually had balls the 1987 team wins it all in the Superdome.

huh? When will you guys understand it's all about money?


Did the members of the SEC get more money when Texas and OU joined?

The answer is no.



Did the members of the SEC get more money when The schedule changed to 9 conference games?

The answer is no.


ESPN makes money. The SEC member schools do not.

Greg Sankey would be a dumbass to agree to this. It benefits the SEC in no way shape or form. So I assume he’ll counter offer a 2 for 1 where the B1G team gets two home games and the SEC team gets 1.

If Ruzic is a 6th man type player on this team, we are going to be very very good.

They have nowhere else to go. Partying in a parking lot in the ghetto is basically the only option student have.
2003 & 2019 would still win.

2005 & 2006 would have had a very good chance to win it.

2007 would win a 12 team playoff, but not if it was 24.

2001 would have made it to the championship game.

The railroad is the biggest issue, but certainly could be done. There’s not really a singular location where one would get used regularly though.

There really needs to be a district full of bars in a better location that students go to. Until then you’ll just have Fred’s printing money with their tents in the ghetto, because that’s all the students have.

No, dumbass, it was a joke. Whether you think it’s funny or not is irrelevant.


Again, there was no joke. Just a weird statement that made no sense.

You do understand that isn’t my picture, right? Are you too stupid to realize that?
Who are these pieces of shite? What kind of a-hole makes fun of Mike Leach dying? It looks like an “adult” tailgate and not a greek tailgate.

Over the past 15-20 years LSU has tried their damndest to dissuade non-ticket holders from coming yo campus on gameday.

Eventually they succeeded when they made pretty much the entire campus paid parking, put up plastic fencing and no parking signs everywhere and made it a huge pain in the arse to go to campus without a parking pass.

There used to be thousands of actual LSU fans who came to campus to tailgate and .party who LSU fans. Cars lined Nicholson, the old front 9 was packed with tailgates. Tailgates filled campus and alot of people at those tailgates even watched the game from the tailgate. That doesn’t happen very much anymore.

With the downfall oof tailgating and less actual LSU fans on campus, the crowd who are within walking distance has decided to take over. Kinda like how 3rd St in BR used to be thriving as a nightlife spot for young adults, local leaders drove them away and now it’s a ghetto paradise.

LSU accomplished their goal to drive away true fans from continuing the gameday tailgating tradition and now it has a major problem on it’s hands.

William Tate doing away with admissions standards and creating the DEi era of LSU did not help either.

But hey, at least LSU makes that little bit of money from gameday parking now.

Don't fault Sankey if he tells them, get him off the team or the next vote is about Ole Miss.


That’s not how this works. Ole Miss rostered & played a guy who previously signed with an NBA team.

The 1st round playoff games need to be on the current conference championship game weekend. No need to stretch it out to the end of January.

All games on campus until the semi-finals. Fans won’t travel to 4 neutral sites in a row but they will pack games on campus.
