Previewing LSU vs. Bama: The Rematch
I think most of us are well aware that the BCS is a farce and an insult to college football in virtually every regard of its existence. It gives us meaningless games that divert College Football's profits into the hands of an elite class and then pretends that our system for choosing teams to play...
LSU, Alabama and Oklahoma State
Rematch? Want to toss this out as a way to get some discussion going because I am really ambivalent and want to see what everybody thinks. I hate the BCS. Hate it. BrickHorn is three years late with his manifesto on why a college football playoff is such a scourge but we'll soldier on until he...
Thank You Butch Davis
For making the hot seat that Les Miles is perched on just a little bit cooler -- if only temporarily. Miles and LSU are to open the season next weekend against #18 North Carolina -- a game that during the summer looked to be a brutal test for the Bengal Tigers -- but now Miles and LSU appear to be...
Les Miles Reminds LSU Recruit Elliott Porter That He Still Can’t Count
"There was never a bottom line that my eventual full circle would be back to Michigan." - Les Miles When Miles runs out of fingers and toes to use, it gets ugly. Even though Miles' toes are prehensile and he can hang from tree branches. "I didn't want to get confused, so that I knew that the...
Mark Richt, Les Miles, And What It Means To Us

I am always happy to eat crow and be mocked, as I gladly return that when I can. Well, today is more me mocking than anything, so imagine me typing...
Les Miles is smarter than he looks
He hired Ed Orgeron as his defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator. This comes on the heels of his hiring of former Tennessee defensive coordinator John Chavis for the same position at LSU.
Mack Brown curse claims latest victim.
Ryan Perrilloux has finally been kicked off the LSU football team. LSU head coach Les Miles said that Perrilloux "didn't fulfill his obligation as an LSU student-athlete." What those obligations were are left to the reader's imagination. He's just the latest in a long line of players, particularly...
Lester Miles Hearts Mack Brown
...or perhaps not. A new NCAA rule bars head football coaches from visiting high schools in May, a wrongheaded decision LSU Coach Les Miles said was prompted by widespread cheating and the probable wishes of Texas Coach Mack Brown. "I can tell you this, there were head coaches who were violating...
Shepard to LSU
Russell Shepard committed to LSU last night. Money quote: "There were certain schools that were going to give me the opportunity to play quarterback and LSU was one," Shepard said. I'm glad we were able to help LSU recruit in Houston. They certainly needed it coming off a national championship and...
