Fun fact: the referee shown running alongside him was a guy who sneaked on the field in a referee uniform.

I thought that some guy claimed on here years ago that he went through the film reel and could disprove that guy's story. At the very least, I'd doubt that he would have run on the field like that mid-play, especially to signal the go-ahead TD against the team that he was rooting for.

Because nobody knows which one is actually "standard" time and which one is "saving" time. If they just called it "winter" time and "rest-of-the-year" time, then people would know.

re: How rare is LSU getting swept in back to back SEC series?

Posted by TheDude321 on 4/24/26 at 5:55 pm to NorthEndZone

The 1991 team won the natty. I think that they started 11-0 in SEC play, took it easy for a while and went like 0-5 against terrible Tennessee and Kentucky squads, and with the conference race now heating up again got their act together and went on a tear and won the SEC title going away, in addition to the national honors.

Lost to sub .500 Miss st….4 years in a row.

Was the ultimate "trap" game for LSU--played the week after the always-big Bama game and the week before the Tulane rivalry game. Perhaps not coincidentally, the game was moved to the "conference opener" slot a few years later, and LSU has subsequently taken it more seriously and gone 28-4-0 in the series since then... :lol:

Well, by that standard, then you can't also overlook that Rupp had a LOT of trouble with NCAA violations. So many violations in fact that wasn't Kentucky the first NCAA program ever given the death penalty? That is a serious level of rule-breaking. :spank:

You're grasping at straws with some of these links. If you're going to list all this stuff, then you might as well go all-out and list other things like NC State later hired Mike Archer as defensive coordinator, former NC State player and coach Ray Tanner hired Mainieri while being athletic director at South Carolina, etc...

Well, the general population isn't going "to rise up." Their government murdered 40,000 protesters in the weeks before the U.S. and Israel got involved. Those 40,000 were the most actively opposed to the government. At this point, the remaining people in Iran are either outright pro-government or "sheeple" who will not oppose anything that the government does. Game over.

Quit using that d*m escalator!

They used to have a nice, elongated ramp that went up there on the south end of the East Upper Deck. I head that they removed it to add the South Upper Deck, which seems odd because they had only built it like 15 years before. If true, then I have no idea how they don't violate fire code, because during an emergency evacuating all of those people on a single escalator and several sets of stairs would take an absolute eternity. It must also now have an incredibly long, sprawling line of people to get their tickets scanned and bags checked before the game starts.
