    That play sums up Jones' career at LSU.

    He had absolutely nothing to do with the play, the WR just dropped it. And as usual, Jones wouldn't have been there to make a play until AFTER the WR caught the ball. Then 3 plays later, Jones is nowhere to be found on the deep TD to the same WR.

    God i hope Jones goes pro.

    I agree. That is something Miles needs to take care of. I am surprised trash talking like that does not pull a penalty.

    Agree; if any it helps the other team. Maybe they just tried to intimitate the other team's players; but highly doubtful if it works.

    I think it makes you look like a punk. Better to show some class, even if you are good.

    What really aggravates me is when you are down by several touchdowns, nothing has went right, everyone has f'd up even the most basic things, and some receiver that's dropped the last five or eight balls thrown in his direction catches one for fifteen yards. He gets up, dances a little, yells, sometimes at the opposing team. This is aggravating because you celebrate when you've accomplished something major, like winning the game, or doing everything right. Celebrating after doing what you were supposed to do for minimal yards after you've been screwing up is just asinine. We've done this from time to time, but it is pandemic for other schools too.

    I always laugh when we're playing someone and they stop us on first down and act as though they just ended a goal-line stand. We almost always (at least before this year) followed up their celebration with a first down. Karma, bitches.

    I always cringe when we do it, because the other team almost always follow up our celebration/trash talking with a first down or score. Again, karma, dumb asses...you'd think the players on the field would learn after getting played for idiots a time or two.

    Down & distance is pretty significant. Affects play calling, for one thing.

    You know this goes on at every team, its more a result of todays Xbox generation more than anything.
    I remember a few years ago OU was beating A&M 77-0 and were running full back dives over and over again to end the game and an A&M player made tackle behind the line of scrimmage one of the fullback dives and he started doing the gravedigger dance. It was 77-0.. I was stunned

    Sure it wears me out a great deal when our players are doing hte cant see me crap, and head shakes after giving up a 1st down or a routine tackle.
    But to say its a problem with LSU, its a problem everywhere. Some coaches tolerate it less.
    One thing teams like Stanford never do stuff like that. So it can be controlled.
    But our coaches dont seem to mind it.
    Except he says "Poise" all the time.

    I disagree...nothing affects Crowton's play-calling.
