LSU Not Over Their Ex

Nick Saban coached LSU from 2000-2004


No folks I'm not talking about none of his ex-girlfriends. I'm talking about his ex team the LSU Tigers. A lot of fans and boosters still to this day hold a grudge against Nick Saban; not only because he left them but how well he's doing without them. It's like that ex-girlfriend who says "that should be me" or who hate to see you doing better without them. Nick Saban success at Alabama is making LSU very salty and I believe secretly wishing he would come back. LSU is so focused on what their ex is doing that they never fully appreciated just how good of a coach they had in Les Miles. And until they turn their attention off Nick Saban and really appreciate the coach whoever it may be in the future, that relationship will never last. The Tigers and Tide square off this Saturday in Death Valley with both teams coming off a bye week. LSU seem to have found new life since the firing of Les Miles but let's be honest, no one they've beaten has been any good. It's been a lot of jawing from the LSU side of things about not only beating but dominating the Tide. I would be careful about pulling on superman cape. I hope they can back it up and keep it close but I just don't see how. Tide look like a team on a mission and this year Tiger team is more like pussycats at times. Bama rolls 41-17.

NBA Recap 10/26/2016

Miami Heat 108 vs Orlando Magic 96 - After leading by 3 at halftime, the Magic were outscored 30-16 in the 3rd quarter. Hassan Whiteside lead the Heat in scoring with 18 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. Miami bench outscored the Magic 42-17. Miami looked shaky during the first half, in particular their perimeter defense allowing too many open jump shots and easy penetration. During the third quarter the defense stepped up which allowed easy fast break points. Liked how much Justice Winslow was bringing the ball down the court. Not the best handles but his passing ability is underrated. Plus he was active on both ends of the floor. Biggest question mark going forward for Miami will be its bench. They scored 42 points tonight but I doubt these performances will be the norm. In the first half Orlando was knocking down the open shots, moving the ball well and rebounding outside their zones. The second half was a totally different story. The Heat are a well coached team but not goo...

Upsets happen quite often on Thursday nights. Auburn had very few problems with San Jose State and Arkansas. The Tigers will be faced with their first road challenge of the 2014 season. Cameron Artis-Payne, Corey Grant (Alabama transfer), and Nick Marshall are key to the Tigers success. Coach Malzahn wants to see improvement in Marshall’s passing, in other words feed the rock to Sammie Coates more. Do not count Kansas State out; they have a dual-threat quarterback also by the name of Jake Waters. Waters helped led the Wildcats to a game winning drive against Iowa State their last game. Kansas State is a smash mouth type football team. Dominating the line of scrimmage is huge in this game and if they are successful do...

Week 3 Games to Watch Ed Wilkins | College Football Analyst Tennessee 2-0 @ #4 Oklahoma 2-0 ABC 8:00PM Trevor Knght throws for 299 and 2 touchdowns vs Tulsa ·      Bob Stoops is not shy to say that his team can compete with the SEC. Oklahoma did defeat Alabama in Sugar Bowl last season and this Saturday the Sooners meet their first test against a rising Volunteers team. Oklahoma’s defense has been lights out this season. The Sooners defense only has allowed 3 points in the first half! Do not sleep on Tennessee at all because the Vols have the type of speed on defense that can disrupt the quarterback. Keep your eyes on linebacker AJ Johnson to have an impact in this game. All eyes will be on Trevor Knight and Sterling Shepard when Oklahoma has the football. This will be a close football game! #12 UCLA 2-0 vs Texas 1-1 (AT&T Stadium) FOX 8:15PM Brent Hundley completed 69% of his passes in UCLA first two games ·     For m...
