  1. One of the really sad thing is that LSU won't be able to get away with the BS excuse for pass protection they used in the second half. SEC refs won't protect them in conference play. They won't look as good on offense as a result and the usual mouthbreather crowd will proclaim that is shows how much better SEC defenses are. To bring this back to Okie Lite, they've played some weak opponents and their defense has looked weak at best. 6 sacks and 18 TFLs in 3 games against that level of competition isn't much. The best of those was OR St, where the Pokes produced 1 sack and gave up 4 passing TDs to a below average team. I'm not really sold on the Cowboy's offensive juggernaut narrative yet. Tulsa and McNeese are obviously lower tier. Oregon State is P5 but their defense was also poor against Hawai'i (421 yds passing). There will be a good offense in Stillwater as long as Gundy is HC there but the first few games were like looking hot by standing out in a crowd of Applewhite / VicMackey specials. The OL and running game (esp Hubbard) have been impressive except against, oddly, McNeese. Agree with the posters above that Texas needs to focus on stopping the run and force their QB to make secondary reads.
  2. True. Just the closest thing we had under the prior regime IIRC. Unfortunately the injury situation kept us from seeing what Herman could do with Conner in the one year he had him.
  3. How can there be a QB battle if Mond declares early after winning the Heisman?
  4. They play both kinds of music: country AND western...
  5. Cosmi had zero hype. He was a 260 lb low 3-star coming out of HS. Composite had him #155 in Texas and NR (outside the top 1,000 or so) nationally. I would LOVE to see what this staff could do with a Connor Williams-type elite OT prototype. Maybe in a year or two after Tyler Johnson has a chance to RS and develop.
  6. Thanks. That makes a lot of sense.
  7. Statcast has Orie in. Has she picked up her game that much to earn PT against a top level opponent?

  9. No longer can they say "thank God for Mississippi." Louisiana just achieved poll position in the poverty grand prix. https://www.businessreport.com/newsletters/number-of-insured-in-louisiana-goes-up-but-so-too-does-poverty-number
  10. Just remember that aggy tears are an annuity, if not a perpetuity.
  11. Obviously he means Duvernay induced PTSD in the secondary. Cosmi-Braun Syndrome (shell shock and awe) up front. Is the entire SEC other than Kirby Smart composed of excuse-peddling pussies?
  12. Each year since Herman arrived, one young OL has really stepped up. In year 1 it was Kerstetter as a true freshman. With that rotating MASH unit up front, I hate to think how much worse things could have been without his ability to play multiple positions. In year 2 it was RS freshman Cosmi playing at a high level. Now in year 3 we are treated to RS freshman Angilau looking really good and an experienced newcomer Braun seriously improving a previously neglected part of his game in pass pro. Virtually everyone is now redshirting and overall program health is much better. That should give the 2nd team O-Line a fair amount of live game experience against the weaker teams on the schedule. We saw a good bit of it against LA Tech. The backup OL played the 4th Q: Urquidez, Ghirmai, Okafor, Imade and Christian Jones got valuable snaps. That luxury just wasn't on the menu in years 1 and 2.
  13. Partially concealed by the fact that couches just don't burn properly with the full saturation of 100% humidity.
  14. It mattered because their OL was ALSO gassed on the 2nd half. They needed the rest as badly as the DL for LSU. Watch how often they just fell down and dragged a pass rusher with them, pulled the grab and takedown from behind or went with the full on bear hug. All signs of immobility combined with fatigue. The worst was when Coburn had one OL bear hugging him from behind and one from the front. Looked like Ring Around the Rosie.
  15. Don't expect anyone with a brain to believe the statistical odds of over a doezen players cramping on defense, some more than once and none at all on offense. Orgeron LIED about the LA Tech coaches reaching out to him about the A/C. The guys on the other side of the supposed conversation confirm that it never happened. Neutral parties who were present report that the A/C was working. O's attempt to climb down when his lies were exposed further indicates that he wasn't telling the truth to begin with.
  16. Go back and quote me on the actual threads. Stop being a bitch and stand up for what you said right here on this one.
  17. I guess being a bitch just comes naturally for you. Nice try at dodging the issue and changing the subject. Just like you did when you got busted quoting me out of context before. We just expect that kind of BS from you now.
  18. The good name of our university is being slandered. You obviously can't understand that since LSU doesn't have a reputation that would be harmed by dragging through the mud. It might actually improve as a result.
  19. The fact that you can't tell the difference between "jokes" and reality says it all about LSU.
  20. If they could afford the buyout I'd want to see Baggins do well enough to keep him in place with his accomplishments. Since they can't afford it I'd love to see him power dive that sucker into the ground at mach 3 and watch aggy whine and grasp helplessly for straws that aren't there while they're saddled with their contractual albatross an made (even more of) a laughingstock for years.
  21. They're LOSERS in life. From their backward, corrupt state to that pathetic excuse for a school to their shithead "fans" and lying coach to the losers making death threats against women and children. Congrats on getting one over on people better than you but of course that's pretty much everyone.
  22. Not a shit defense. Just Fatball(TM) in action. They very predictably collapsed after 50 plays - which was achieved during the 18 play drive of the 3rd Q. It's pretty obvious they were scared shitless and knew what was coming. My nephew's Marine unit had an unofficial motto: We run those sorry punks into the ground then kill them when they're tired. The fact that they're STILL talking about it says Texas left a big impression on them. This was the most physical team they're going to see until Bama. Maybe the most physical they will see all season.
  23. Duvernay won most of the battles with Delpit. #6 was just too strong for him on the screen as well:
