How to watch game online in Zurich?
Posted by vdecossa on 9/27/23 at 2:00 am
Will be in Zurich this Saturday. Does anyone know how to watch the game online? Game will start at 1:00 AM here. I tried YouTube TV and ESPN+ for Arkansas game but these are blocked in Europe.
re: Mathieu sends Reid a message
Posted by vdecossa on 7/23/19 at 7:50 pm to KingofthePoint
Reid made one of the greatest interceptions in LSU history and was a great Tiger, but even he should know that LSU doesn't make the rules for the NCAA. One way to give back is to make the student-athletes experience as LSU Tigers an enjoyable and comfortable one. I am sure the current student-athletes are enjoying themselves and appreciate what Tyrann Mathieu has gifted to them. Tyrann is one of the greatest players to pass through our storied program - a strong willed person on and off the field!
Perfect post - Only thing I would add is:
And a chance at playoffs and national championship!

So true...
I agree. What do we want him to say? "We got our asses handed to us." I think we all know that and I also think that we may never know why we didn't try anything and everything offensively in the 2nd half of that game.
The thing I don't agree with is his complete silence. Miles is supposed to be the ultimate motivator. He is confident and unwavering. Come out, say "you are pissed", say "it will never happen again", say "watch out college football cause this is not over", say "It's On", say "failure makes us stronger and hungrier".
His complete silence lets all of this stuff fester with the players, recruits, fans, commentators, media, etc.

For me, besides SEC pride, its economics. LSU gets more money from the SEC for more SEC teams playing in bowl games, especially if we get 2 teams in BCS bowls.
If LSU has no shot at playing for the national champioship even if Oregon and Auburn have losses, I would much prefer Auburn to play in the National Championship game and take the $17 million back to the SEC. In that scenario, we would likely also get a BCS bowl for another $17 million payout to take back to the SEC. The SEC teams would split $34 million, just from those two games.
If Auburn or LSU do not play for the national championship, we may only get $17 million total to split amongst the SEC teams.
This is not to mention the prestige of the SEC and getting better bowl tie-ins, for even more bowl money to split.
Although, I do understand the hate of SEC schools. I only root for them if it helps LSU atheltics.

In my opinion, when you are the QB, you are the leader of the offense. He needed to line up the offense immediately and run a play (or just simply spike the ball to stop the clock). The problem is that I don't believe the coaches are allowing these kids to think at all. How can anyone (players and coaches) let the last 25 seconds of the ballgame run out when you are at the 2 yard line and have a chance to win the game. The chaos was sickening. Crowton needs to go today.
Does anyone know if we had clock management issues when Jarrett Lee started two years ago? If Lee had stayed in the ballgame last night at the 2 yard line, it would have been very interesting to see if he was the leader we are looking for.

fwiw - Peterson is #9 in all-purpose yards in the SEC. I believe he is the only non-offense player on the list.
I completely agree. Try something new. At one point in the second half, we kept running the option - it never works. I would love to see the stats for the option play for the last two years - it has to be horrible. Why continue to do it? We have the talent - line them up and see what happens. We definitely cannot do worse than what I am seeing on the field.
With all due respect to Miles (who I like as our coach), its time to make wholesale changes to the offense. We have as much or more talent than anyone in the country. We have a lights out defense, awesome special teams, and a pretty good running game.
Lets do this - we can win a lot of games if the offense starts clicking.

I live in Tampa too, but am diehard LSU and Saints. Most of the LSU families I know here are both, although most are from LA.

re: LSU "WIN!" goal post in locker room

I had the same problem finding it many years ago, when I wanted to make one for above the door leading to my bonus room. I finally found a picture on a LSU poster. I briefly glanced searched the internet for you but did not locate one. I would continue to search under "LSU posters" or "LSU football posters". I hope you find it. If I find time to look further and find it, I will re-post.
