LSU vs Georgia in game...

No, Jsc, it's not all all luck, but they do seem to get every break. Can't recall the last time LSU got the short end of any stick, bad bounce, or fluke play. I can sure recall all the times weird shit went their way.

Like they say, it's better to be lucky than good, and LSU is clearly both.

Les Miles is a very good coach, but he is also the luckiest coach to ever put the head set on.

his teams have been on the receiving end of every lucky break there is, during their games.

Yes, Van, it is all luck.

You did get a huge break on the Mathieu TD.

And Georgia opens the second half with a fumble deep in their own territory, giving LSU an easy short field. A too-many-men-on-the-field defensive penalty on first-down makes it first-and-five, and LSU finally converts their first down. Next play...TD

The boatrace is on.

JSC is likely going to chalk up all those dropped passes and missed points by Georgia to killer LSU defense and not blind luck.

He can afford to. Shit like this happens nearly every time with LSU. Whatever weird shit they need to happen during close games...it happens.

actually d-bag, the call finally goes the other way.

Not even close to being caught. And Honey Badgers Punt return should of been a touch back, he threw the ball to the ref, out of the endzone, before crossing the line. but hey, they never get the breaks!

Adelpiero · Post by **Adelpiero** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 11:49 pm

nah, no lucky break there, clearly ball out of his hand, before he crosses the line. That's a TD, you can start throwing the ball to the REF, at the 1, and call it a TD, these days!

Van · Post by **Van** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 11:50 pm

First TD...a punt return during which a couple of clips were 'missed' and Honey Badger's little stunt actually should've resulted in a touchback for Georgia.

Second TD...a twenty-yard 'drive.'

Third TD...another punt return leading to another twenty-yard 'drive.'

I said it at the beginning of the game, and it remains true: Georgia was simply not ready for primetime.

Pssst... it's an SEC offense. What did you expect ???

Hate to say, but I side with the troll.

Week in, week out I watch this league... Why do these folks scare anybody?

Yeah, the defense is good, but offense is a mirage. Can't wait to see the Mizzou spread run against this bunch...

Van · Post by **Van** » Sun Dec 04, 2011 12:07 am

Jefferson really is horrible. He can run a little because of that killer O-Line, but he sucks out loud as a reader/passer.

If Bama can simply keep the turnovers and special teams-play roughly even, they're going to shut this offense down to nothing again. This next one looks like Bama's to lose.

This pains me to the nth degree, but SC would beat LSU...

Van · Post by **Van** » Sun Dec 04, 2011 12:28 am

Don't know whether they'd beat them, especially in the Superdome, but they'd score quite a bit against them and make a solid game of it. They certainly would play with more poise than Georgia did today.

On the off chance that Barkley and Kalil decide to return for their senior seasons, hey, LSU and USC will both be preseason Top Five teams. USC would then be returning their entire starting offense and nearly their entire defense. Maybe next year we'll finally see LSU in a title game that's not in their home dome.

Truman · Post by **Truman** » Sun Dec 04, 2011 12:34 am

I think they'd spend all night just trying to hold serve against Okie Lite. The Pokes would run them out of the gym....

OK State coudn't win the MNF with the 50th ranked defense, Gary?

Sorry, but I like their 5th ranked offense and their 49.8 ppg over LSU's number 52. Tigers won't be able to keep up...

You're beating Georgia, for gawd's sake, Harry Rex. It ain't like they're Boise....

Don't kick to Dennis Rodman and we're gold. You people don't score enough to scare us.

'grats, Harry Rex. You just beat a team that was lookin' to fire its Coach after Week 2. See you at the CCG next year, if you can get out of the West....

Truman · Post by **Truman** » Sun Dec 04, 2011 1:18 am

Was speaking of Georgia, not LSU.

Tigers are a helluva ball club, and as good as half-a-dozen others in the country. I believe, however, that if the voters and computers give Okie State the chance to bring its A-Game into your worl', you people will go home a runner's up.

The League did us a favor by putting us in the East. If you can get by 'bama next year, we'll see how well you fare against a XII-style spread in the CCG. From what I've seen from LSU this season, I like our chances.

Looks like somebody is auditioning to be the SEC's mtool.

That a "know your place" balst, Carson?

The East flat sucks. And we're bringin' an offense you people don't see every day. Think we'll stack up just fine. Just sayin'.

Truman, y'all lost to Troy, for crying out loud.

Troy and Southern Miss are the "alternatives" for kids who don't get offers from BCS conference teams.

Mizzou's offense? Gimme a break. You can't scheme away speed.

And y’all lost to Wofford, Tulane, AND Vanderbilt all in the same year. Poets go to Wofford. Ancient history. What’s your point, Carson?

Mizzou's offense? Gimme a break. You can't scheme away speed.

So our Texans are slow. Gotcha.

Georgia and South Cackalacky are good ball clubs; Florida and Tennessee are down; and Kentucky and Vanderbilt are just plug-awful. My point all along has been that with a year’s experience under his belt as a starter, I like James Franklin’s chances of leading Mizzou to an East Division title next season. Hell, 5-2 might win the damn thing. It ain’t like the Tigers are trying to compete with the likes of LSU, ‘bama, Aubie, and Arkie for the West.

Auburn's not going, so what do you care? Why do you take glee in your rivals winning titles you're supposed to want to win? You do realize, don't you, that short of another under-the-table-payoff deal for a freak like Scam Knewnothing Auburn would simply be watching hated Alabama's taillights growing ever dimmer as they continue to leave you in the dust. Last I checked, both LSU and Bama are still West rivals of yours, so if you're really an Auburn fan and not just an SECBSH this turn of events should seriously sicken you.

It's the SEC deal. When your teams not involved, you root for other SEC teams.

Van · Post by **Van** » Sun Dec 04, 2011 6:10 pm

Yeah, well, every time Bama or LSU wins another national title it only serves to widen the divide between themselves and Auburn, and 'Spray's sole concern should center on Auburn's declining status within both the Division and its home state. Auburn's rivals winning titles does not help Auburn. It hurts them. Rooting for it is asinine.

Yeah Tru -- having fast guys running in a spread is all it takes to get over on LSU.

But it's not like O's offense is anywhere near on par with the perennial powerhouse that is Mizzou.

As long as Bama and LSU keep kicking your ass and once-a-decade freaks can't be bought (not brought) into your program to prop you up for one season, no, Auburn will not be alright. They will simply slip further and further behind. The result of Bama's and LSU's success is going to mean continued hellacious recruiting that Auburn simply will not be able to match.

Van · Post by **Van** » Mon Dec 05, 2011 1:44 am

We're talking cycles now, not just down years. LSU and Bama are clearly walking away from Auburn. As long as Miles and Saban stay put and those two programs keeping building success upon success, Chizik and Auburn will be relegated to afterthought status where it matters most, on the recruiting trail.
