    Michigan allowing Cincinnati to hang in there. So that's pretty sad as well. Hope blue loses, makes that gator loss even funnier

    Everybody but Kentuckians pronounce it Looeeville. Just like people from Missouri pronounce it Missoura.

    No one pronounces their town or state like the masses. It's always the laziest form possible bc it's easierr to say.. Or vice versa.

    Nawlins looziana mizzoura jawja

    Basically the less you have to move your mouth will likely be correct.

    He is having a decent game off the bench. Looks more passionate than he ever did here. He's still a garbage qb imo. It's a lot easier to play well when the other team didn't scheme or gameplan for you, (Jordan Jefferson cough cough) but kudos to him for making the most of it.

    I never heard anybody pronounce it Nawkins until Brent Musberger started saying it. A lot of natives pronounce it Nyuawlins. A little different phonetically. I always cringe when I hear Yankee actors try to fake a New, Orleans, a Cajun or a Southern accent.

    Harris looks better than I've ever seen him, his throws to the left flank on the out routs and corners are on the money.

    If Matt Canada had been his OC from the start instead of Cameron I think he would be a pretty good QB by now.

    Maybe if the staff would have just benched him to teach him a lesson and then brought him back in, we could have seen another kid. Oh who am I fooling, Les ruins more qb's than my Dad has ruined toasted bread over his life.
