    I don't care anything about Eli, or about Larry Fitzgerald or about Perry, but if THAT is the Heismann winner the whole thing is rigged. I loved it when ABC listed all the "hardware" OU players got and sort of wondered where was the beef...shows me that LSU's PR machine wasn't in gear early enough, because those OU winners certainly can't match our guys. Anyway, please don't think I'm dissing the loser--OU played hard. But the one thing that shocked me was the poor play of White. And for them to even consider pulling him and putting in a sophomore who might "give them another dimension"!! I hope this silences the talk about his getting the Heismann again next year!!

    White showed a lot of guts but he should have asked David Greene what it was like to face the LSU D

    Forget PR machines and any other hardware that doesn't say National Champions on it!!!! It's the only hardware that counts the rest is just garnish!!!!!!

    It would've mattered if he talked to Greene or not, White and
    especially his coaches didn't think we were better than anybody
    else they played

    How come all these great QBs happen to play poorly against LSU?

    I don't get it. How come Eli Manning, Matt Jones, David Greene and Jason White all just happen to have a bad day and play poorly against LSU? [2 bad days for David Greene]

    Could it be that LSU has a great D?

    I wonder how many of these brilliant AP writers' headlines would read "Matt Lienert just had a bad day against LSU?" if there were just 'one more game'?

    The firs tpost about Eli was the only one that isn't right on. Eli didn't light us up either and White had by far the better season. The mian thing tonight showed about awards on both a conference and national level is that TIGAHS should have won more of them.
