re: That game was Fun to watch

exactly. can’t even remember how many beat downs we’ve given over the years where I left saying…we really didn’t play very well or otherwise just knew that shite wouldn’t fly come bowl/playoff season.

i will say that the sound system overall is MUCH more well balanced that it was, regardless of the content. it used to be horribly equalized and harsh in certain ranges but it was a full clear sound since the last time I was in the stadium.

u serious clark?
if your wife cheated and you took your two girls and met a hottie with a kid whose husband had cheated on her? you are just gonna swipe on kid free women? I am not disrespected. I think your perspective might change as you age though.
if you ever find yourself in the situation and are looking for a wife, be VERY leery of swiping yes on a never married, kid free, hot 40 year old. gonna get a whole lotta crazy there.

My kid went to SC. I love that place. Flying home from BR today with a plane full of clems and wearing my Gamecock polo with LSU hat to dust a little salt in the wounds.

I just had to double check my phone here. SOMETHING is malfunctioning. the universe. black holes. alternate realities and all that?

re: Regular season performances since 2000 - where does this rank?
Posted by Russianblue on 9/6/26 at 10:25 am to Ace Midnight
Not regular season but I think you gotta throw in the Miami bowl blowout as far as marquee point in time, trajectory type wins.

all I know is that the major burns “tackle behind the line and fall forward for a 7 yard gain” era is thankfully over for good.

same w me. Columbia is a well known “heat dome” city. It gets hot AF.
I live in the area.
Now, in BR today, I am remembering the true definition of humidity. That’s also something that’s “just different” about BR.
Louisiana doesn’t hold the patent on heat.
Louisiana DOES hold the patent on humidity. Sweet Jeezus it’s muggy today! I’ve prob just been away too long, lol!

The Jordan Jefferson arrest certainly got a lot of air time but nothing to this magnitude.
re: Found this legal post on the lawsuit against LSU.
Posted by Russianblue on 9/4/26 at 9:13 am to LSUTigerblood50
This is the most relevant and apropos facet of the Federal Court Lawsuit and how the SEC is having to do an 'end-around' here. Thanks for being a rare intellect around here.
I did some research on this yesterday too but don't expect to get much traction with the Rant! but to your point:
The SEC runs its entire case on a single constitutional hook: the First Amendment right of expressive association, brought via 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
Because LSU and its officials are state actors (instrumentalities of Louisiana), the SEC argues their conduct constitutes state action that forces the conference to associate its brand, competitions, and championships with conduct it has unanimously repudiated. The SEC leans heavily on Boy Scouts of Am. v. Dale (530 U.S. 640) for the proposition that forcing a group to accept members or conduct antithetical to its expressed values violates the group's associational rights.
I'd be curious to see what that Boy Scouts case looks like but this analysis went on further to note:
What the SEC Wants
Count I: A declaratory judgment that the First Amendment protects the SEC's right to disassociate from the defendants' conduct.
Count II: A preliminary and permanent injunction barring LSU from violating the SEC's associational rights and from retaliating against the conference for exercising those rights. Plus attorneys' fees under 42 U.S.C. § 1988.
Notably, the SEC explicitly says it is not asking the court to declare any student-athlete ineligible or to prevent any student-athlete from competing. The suit targets only the institution and its officials.

Ain’t that the truth. Sankey should just embrace all this and just be the new Vince Mcmahon. What if we found out after the fact he orchestrated all this for airtime? Origin Stories and Villain Arcs. Genius!
shoot, the SEC’s got a LOT more eyes on it right now than any time in recent memory. We just need someone to win a natty this year to break the streak!

i’m glad SOMEBODY has the intelligence to remove all the emotion and faux moral outrage and call this for what it is - a massive failure by the powers that be.
I wish it didn’t sour everyone solely bc it’s Lane Kiffin. If it were Mike Leach at Miss State forcing the issue like this, I would be in his corner 100%.
Bottom line is that college fb is fukked right now with or without Kiffin until they get this straight.
