Her world view of LSU is one of dominance. She fully believed we'd launch a 4th quarter comeback, and I actually laughed at her. Then, I laughed as the comeback proceeded to happen. So close...
If that Hail Mary was caught I would be looking outside seeing if Jesus had come back to earth to grant a miracle.
If that ball had been thrown one foot further, it might've happened. That's what my daughter expects from LSU. She only remembers Miles as the coach--she was 4 his first season.
That's gotta be pretty awesome. I didn't get to see much LSU growing up and no internet, so it was hey watch the news or get ahold of the paper the next day. Your daughter has it good!
Indeed she does. I still remember LSU having a winning season in '88, my freshman year there, and then being in the stands to watch six straight losing seasons after that. We're spoiled, and losing hurts worse when it doesn't happen often.
When I started, a "good night" was getting the game on an AM radio station while driving over the MS river bridge!
