Re: phatcat In 82 or 83, the Teurlings Rebels shut out their first 11 opponents until meeting John Curtis University. They lost 26-8 and the game was over as soon as JCU scored their first point. I was there! But, they were praised by ESPN!
Just thought of this one. In the prohibition days of the 20's there was an much feared organized crime mob called "THE PURPLE GANG" Another gang was called "MURDER INCORPORATED" How about SACKS INCORPORATED or DEFENSE INCORPORATED. or even THE PAIN GANG This one wouldn't work for LSU but hey Mister Real Man of Genius in the New York Spin Department, if the Giants or the Jets actually ever develope a great defense you owe me for this one: SACKS 5TH AVENUE Whatever name the D gets tagged with they could use a catchy slogan too, like "WHEN THE PAIN HITS YOU MUST QUIT" or "A LOTTA PAIN AND STILL NO GAIN" You know how they electronically paint the first down mark on TV with a yellow line? Can we get whatever network televises a Tiger game to put the word NEVERLAND on the yellow line?
or just get them to move the yellow line to stay wherever the QB is when he drops back... that's what happens to the OL anyway..lol for a name? hmm... how 'bout "The Sabanation" (Saban-Nation)... I dunno... Shock and Awe is definately a cool one... Geaux Tigers!
I could have sworn i read a post by someone offering the "Wall of Voodoo" slogan, which was my favorite. Very original and just as appropriate. Purple Haze would be my 2nd favorite.
Personally, I think Chinese Bandits is the only option. It's the only one that doesn't sound cheesy, and is 100% original (and therefore unique to LSU.) However, I thought it'd be a nice middle finger in the air to USC to call them the Greeks.
