"I have been in that stadium a whole lot," Gales said. "I'm looking forward to going down there and whipping some butt." They are gunning for Lee. http://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/article/20081112/SPORTS0404/811120347/1002/SPORTS
They'll get more than they bargained for. I think the breaking point has come and we'll finally see two QBs in this game.
I e-mailed the article to the LSU football office just to let them know the Trojans were soming Saturday to whip their @ass. :grin:
Did you know Jarrett Lee is now leading active QB in Pick 6s (Tied with Sr. Rudy Carpenter) Check out this stat page (Hasnt been updated for Bama yet) well at least he will hold some records http://www.cfbstats.com/ Interesting "Lee has some good company on this list, including Heisman contenders Colt McCoy and Graham Harrell, and first-round NFL draft pick Matt Ryan. But those three players each have over 1000 pass attempts during this timeframe while Lee has only 189. In fact, the player on the list with the 2nd-fewest pass attempts (Enderle - 580) has over three times as many attempts as Lee. Senior Rudy Carpenter of Arizona State is the active FBS leader with six interceptions returned for touchdown" He is a tiger and I am rooting for him. But the more I see stuff like this the more I realize why we have three losses... I hope he can fix it.
I really, really, really hate to say this. But have we gotten to the point of having to rev up our team with "smack" from a school like Troy? C'mon sportsfans. I wouldn't even have acknowledged the fact that Troy spoke, much less talked "smack". We're LSU. We're the defending National Champion. I know we've lost a few this year, but show some pride. Even Brett hasn't acknowledged Troy. There's still an Alabama logo between the Tiger's eyes, but it ain't Troy.
I hear what you are saying but any team that shows up to play in Death Valley is an opponent. Unfortunately, we can't take the crystal ball into any of our games this year and it wouldn't do us any good if we did. Not sure what else to post the week that we play Troy. It beats just staring at the Alabama @ Tuscalosa logo.
I hear you but it's teams like that who "Steal" a game sometimes. Despite only having three losses and a lot to play for, the overall mood over Louisiana is a disappointment and the table is set for an unemotional coming out so I'd support the team hearing this crapola and reminding them that we are LSU and every game is about playing for/representing Louisiana and the best dam fans. :thumb:
It's going to be ok ... My wife and I will be coming down for this game and I'll be cheering till I can't talk straight ... We'll be fine
