re: When was the last time LSU beat a ranked team?
Posted by lsumatt on 9/24/23 at 9:18 pm
Had to have been 1994 or before. In 1998 we beat the crap out of ranked Miss State and in 1999 we beat 7-3 Arky to finish 3-8. Surely we beat a ranked team every year 2000-2019. And as mentioned we did in 2020-2022.
Edit: looks our 4 wins in 1994 were all against unranked teams. ...

I saw BTTF the musical in London recently. Highly recommend. It was like watching the movie for the first time again. It was about 90% identical to the movie but just different enough to not know exactly what was coming next....
re: So if LSU beats UGA, who make the playoffs?
Posted by lsumatt on 11/27/22 at 10:16 am
Michigan and Georgia are in no matter what. If usc or tcu lose then Ohio state takes their place. If they both lose I am pretty sure tcu stays in the 4 spot. Clemson (if they win), Tennessee, and Bama would be in some order after that....

re: Has it been discussed why Saban went for 2 after going ahead 21-17?

Where on that chart is time remaining shown? It is clearly taking into account the possibility of 2 lsu field goals which is highly unlikely with 4 minutes left...

[quote] Essentially there is no real advantage being up 5 instead of 4. This is a somewhat common thing to do when you are up 4 [/quote]
Not true at all. It forces LSU to go for 2 which is statistically hard to get. If they don’t get it a field goal win it for you....

Posted by lsumatt on 11/7/22 at 8:45 am
Statistically, you have (less than) a 50% chance of getting a 2 and over 95% of getting the xp. It is a no brainer to go for one and force lsu to go for the 2 if they score. Chances are a field goal will win it for you.
Saban has made some dumb 2 point calls over the years but he almost never pa...

There are two entrances into Steiner from 620. Traffic pre pandemic was pretty terrible on 620 to 2222 during rush hour. But they built an extra partial lane and a short cut to 2222 which really helps traffic.

re: What is your Mount Rushmore of Bruce Willis movies?
Posted by lsumatt on 4/23/21 at 2:09 pm
Years ago I was looking at the imdb 250 best movies all time and Bruce Willis was the only actor with 5 movies on it that weren’t sequels. Also all 5 were different genres. He wasn’t the lead or star in all of them but I still think it is impressive especially for someone who gets some ridicule for ...

A better story line would have been Daniel was super arrogant and at the beginning of that movie gets his butt kicked by Barnes to lose championship. That means the rise of Cobra Kai. Daniel has to go back to training and being humbled but fears losing again to Barnes, not deathly afraid of...
re: Annual reminder that Mary Bailey is the greatest wife in history
Posted by lsumatt on 12/24/20 at 8:35 am
The real victim in the movie is Mr. Welsh. He was probably justified in punching George for telling off his wife but will be the town villain for being the guy that beat up the drunk, depressed town hero. Plus, he will never be able to grab a martini after work for the rest of his life. ...

Help me find a tv series
Posted by lsumatt on 11/5/20 at 8:04 pm
Looking for a tv series for the wife and I that is a 1 hour dramedy type that doesn’t require a lot of thinking and low intensity. A few that we have seen the last few years that we liked (ranked in order):
1. Psych
2. Cobra Kai
3. Chuck
4. Ted Lasso
5. Monk
6. Suits
7. Blue Bloods
8. Roya...
re: 20 yrs ago tonight: Rohan to Royal in OT. LSU 38 Tennessee 31
Posted by lsumatt on 9/30/20 at 8:45 am
I believe to this day that the play that changed LSU football was 3rd and 22 on our own 5 yard line with 2 minutes remaining and a tie game. All signs pointed to a draw play, botched punt, and easy field goal by Tenn to end it.
Instead Rohan hit Reed in the middle of the field for and gave us OT....

I am not sure what to make of the data and relatively low cases the last two days. I thought we would get a data dump after the low case numbers from Labor Day. It’s good we are not but the testing is also relatively low. I find that odd given that colleges are testing like crazy. Also, hospitalizat...
