Buckeye Fan 19

Key called a TO when Colorado was spiking it. :lol:

Haha, I live in Lincoln Park, not too far from there. Lived in West Lakeview for about 4 years previously.

Especially in southern California. I love college football, and there are about two dozen things I'd rather do on an August Saturday afternoon in LA than watch San Jose St get dogwalked up and down the field.

I never understand these types of posts. There are only 7 home games a year. USC hadn't played in the Coliseum in 9 months. There are 45 non-USC Saturdays (and 97 non-USC Saturdays/Sundays) throughout the year, without even factoring in weeknights. Also, it's not like the game literally takes all day.

We can call a spade a spade and just say it was an embarrassing turnout. No need to sugarcoat it.

I think the Mich St player who returned the game winning blocked punt against Michigan had a Bo Jasckson-like career ending injury after his teammates piled on him in the endzone.

---

It was actually while he was getting tackled as he crossed the goalline, but of course his teammates didn’t know and all dog-piled on him in their celebration while he was laying on the ground in pain, which I’m sure wasn’t a pleasant experience. :lol: Was relatively serious / season-ending, but not career ending,

It’s very possible that if every American took a poll yesterday of simply “approve/disapprove” for every major celebrity, she’d have had the highest approval rating.

NC State vs Virginia is probably the most important

You may remember that they played last year in what was officially a non-conference game, scheduled as part of a 2-game non-conf home-and-home. UVA actually lost but it didn’t count in the conference standings and they finished 7-1 in the conference. Had it counted (and UVA didn’t play one of their other ACC games) there would’ve been a 6-way tie at the top at 6-2.

Was also supposed to apply this year, but because the ACC has now moved to a 9-game schedule, they shifted this year’s to be in-conference.

Thanks Honkus. I feel like in general listening to that, that Bryan’s opinion isn’t too different than any/all of my posts in this thread. I think one time he sorta mentioned him as a pass rusher, but it kinda felt like a throwaway / if he mentioned it as if he’d be a top-notch sacker of the QB than he’s just not accurate on that.

Usually 6-7 months minimum for RTP and NDs Pro day was 5 months ago

I get the sense it wasn’t a major tear but I truly don’t know. These guys are also young early 20s freak athletes (all P4 players are freak athletes compared to gen pop) and I think typical recovery time for injuries is often quicker for them.

But yeah, I think that’s part of the reason he didn’t get any NFL camps/preseason looks. He was still gonna be UDFA / almost certainly cut after a preseason game or two, but he would’ve been in a camp.

Posting on an LSU forum.
Nice.

Yeah, I joined TD nearly 20 years ago (hard to believe…) right before the 07 NCG when I was in HS, gave up my OSU fandom after enrolling at ND. Username is what it is at this point but has definitely caused some confusion on the MSB the past 15+ years :lol: (ironically, Marcus Freeman started at LB for OSU in that game against LSU, so a bit full circle).

I virtually never post on the Rant (mostly on the MSB and occasionally on the OT, neither of which are really LSU boards, more like national boards that just so happen to be on an LSU site) but figured I’d chime in on this one since I’ve watched a lot of Junior T.

Anyway, I think you guys will like him a lot. One other thing I didn’t mention is he tore his pec at ND’s Pro Day, so with that plus the combo of him not being in any camp and having to learn a brand new system, it could take him until October to really get into the swing both physically and mentally, but I think he’ll be very solid for you once he does.

Really good against the run and setting the edge. Great on Special Teams. Great locker room guy. Had a huge game against UGA in the CFP quarterfinals two years ago with a fumble recovery and a sack.

Not an elite pass rusher, but without knowing LSU’s DE depth chart, this should at minimum be a really nice depth / rotational / ST piece for you guys.
