Sugar Bowl PhotoBlog

http://tvtanline.blogspot.com/2007/01/sugar-bowl.html

Somebody had way more freetime than me.

Here's TV screen shots of the Sugar Bowl.

It's only a matter of time before Nick Saban takes credit for taking the pictures.

Oh my...we just scored another TD on Notre Dame

Vomit, hurl, regurgitation....


If you look up Vomit, hurl, regurgitation..etc..in the dictionary you may get this picture.

Here's an actual billboard in Tuscaloser Alabuma.

Notice Bama's choice of soft drink as well. Yes "Pepsi, the Choice of Champions". LONG LIVE COCA-COLA! You ever heard of Rum and Pepsi????

Geaux to hell Alabama...Geaux to Hell!!!!!

Strength Coach Moffit to Saban.."NO"


LSU Strength Coach Tommy Moffit, who Saban didn't ask to go to Miami but now Saban calls... told Nick Satan... NO.

from an article in the advocate a few quotes.... interesting one's too.

“I didn’t want to make the same mistake coach Saban did. He told me he would watch us play every Saturday night (while with the Dolphins) and it killed him.”“I have walked away from a lot of money to stay here,” Moffitt said.

Moffitt has been promised a long-term contract by LSU, he said, after having worked on a year-to-year basis there so far. He said he plans to talk with LSU assistant athletic director Verge Ausberry on Monday, but “I haven’t signed anything yet.

“That’s when we’ll probably make it official,” Moffitt said.

Moffitt said he has been deluged by e-mails and messages from LSU fans asking him to stay.
“It’s amazing,” he said. “I’m in shock at the number of e-mails that keep coming. I can’t believe it.”

thanks to TigerToon dude for the 'toon.

Nick Saban the Victim???

Get a load of this crap....Manly Nick

I really do regret that I was pinned into the corner," Saban told South Florida reporters Thursday morning after he was introduced as the Crimson Tide's new coach, two weeks after publicly saying, "I'm not going to be the Alabama coach."

"I believe I did it the best way I could do it," he said. "I tried to protect the team by not making it a distraction for the team, and my integrity for doing that is being questioned.

"In my eyes, when I said that, it wasn't a lie. The circumstances changed and I made a different decision. That's not lying."

Thursday he said he is disappointed to be portrayed across the country as a liar.

"I'm a little bit of a victim," he said. "I get asked questions that I really shouldn't answer. You should have the opportunity to weigh those options and I didn't have the opportunity to do that."

Saban said he chose to refute rumors rather than say "no comment," because "then that becomes a big story, and everybody on the team reads it and they're out there saying, 'Well, I don't know if coach is getting ready for this game or not?' "

Given those circumstances, Saban said it's unfair for people to brand him as a liar.
..........

There's a word for this type of behavior...help me out here....

Don Shula on Nick Suitcase

Don Shula on Nick Saban

''He has run away from the challenge, it's unbelievable. There were four or five direct statements that were blatant lies. That tells you a little bit about the guy.

"The guy likes to hear himself talk and then doesn't follow up on what he says.''

"Saban, in the two years here, was 15-17," Shula told Cox News Service. "So I guess I'm surprised that he's leaving — and surprised that Alabama wanted him."

“I've always been a coach that says, ‘when a game's over, you can't change the score and you move on. You try to learn from a negative experience and from something positive, you try to build on it.

Classy Bama Fan...

Myth - LSU won the Sugar Bowl only on Saban's recruits

After hearing little Nicky claim credit for the Sugar Bowl win today in his presser in Tuscaloosa for his talent winning the game, I found this...

From Speedy on tigerdroppings

Our recruiting has fallen to dangerous levels. Once Saban's players leave the program, we are going to be in MAJOR trouble.

I mean, since Miles has been headcoach, here are some of the players that he has recruited who have had had no impact this year:

Darry Beckwith
Ciron Black
Trindon Holliday
Ricky Jean-Francois
Jacob Cutrera
Brandon LaFell
Richard Dickson
Richard Murphy
Charles Scott
Keiland Williams

The cupboard is bare. Les has wasted his time in filling it with this crap:
Chris Hawkins
R.J. Jackson
Steven Korte
Ryan Perrilloux
Rahim Alem
Ricky Dixon
Jai Eugene
Chris Mitchell
Jared Mitchell
Derrick Odom
Zhamal Thomas
Al Woods


Here are some of the players who played in last night's game that Saban can't take an ounce of credit for:

Brandon LaFell
Keiland williams
Darry Beckwith
Trindon Holliday
Rahim Alem
R.J. Jackson
Chris Hawkins
Danny McCray
Jacob Cutrera
Richard Dickson
Chris Mitchell
Jared Mitchell Al Woods

Myth: Saban is a better recruiter than Miles

Fact: Miles' recruiting classes at LSU are better than Sabans According to Rivals, here are the average star rating of Sabans recruting classes from 2002, that is as far back as they go to 2004:
2002: 3.23
2003: 3.68, this is the year that we had the #1 recruiting class in the country
2004: 3.54

Now compare those numbers to Miles
2005: 3.69 - His very first class was higher than Saban's best
2006: 3.64
2007: 3.58

Saban's average: 3.48
Miles' average: 3.64

Uh oh. That can be right, can it?
Miles has been outrecruting Saban? Looks that way

Les Miles and Sean Peyton

Les Miles - "Hey Sean, You're No Nick Saban"
Sean Peyton - "Thanks. I guess I didn't get the memo that you can't turn a team around in a hurry. I guess I'll read Nick's next book to learn how not to do things"

SABAN = LIAR



LIAR! TIGERBAIT!!

MISSION STATEMENT - Saban is now Tigerbait


Little Nicky is now a mortal enemy. LSU won the National Championship in 2003. Nick Saban did not do it alone. Today the motherfodder cracked that the Sugar Bowl was won last night with his players. I guess then Nicky you 'won' your national championship all by yourself WITH DINARDO's TALENT.

Nick Saban is now the enemy. The mission of this website and of all Tiger fans should be to make sure that he becomes Nick Hasbeen...the biggest mistake hire in college football history. The liar, non-credible Nicky must be defeated and mark Nov 3rd on your calendars Tigerfans!!!!

Funny how one event changes things. Suddenly today my hatred for Tuberville has subsided abit. There a new bastion of evil in the Crimson state... Tuscaloosa has returned to it's rightful place as the source of all that is wrong with college football.

Prediction: Nick Saban will be the coach of Alabama who's tenure ends when Bama finally gets the death penalty it so deserves. You see after Nicky loses to LSU, Tenn, UGA, and Auburn next year...the bama faithfull will dig deeper in their pockets and return to their old ways and pay their players a little more. Tennessee and Auburn spies will then step in a Blamo.. the NCAA swoops in.

Look out Nicky ....LSU football was not created by you and will not go away now that your are Tiger Bait... FEAR LES MILES and keep your tainted Bama money off of Louisiana recruits. Stay out of our state you overpaid, overhyped, non-credible, non-trustworthy, piece of Alabama trash.

GEAUX TIGERS!!!

THE WAR HAS BEGUN...........

Saban Leaves as a loser, weasel By Dan Le Batard

Le Batard: Saban leaves as a loser, weasel
BY DAN LE BATARD
dlebatard@MiamiHerald.com
The punctuation on the Nick Saban Error is greasy and greedy. You know what he was as Dolphins coach? A failure. A loser. A gasbag. And one of the worst investments Dolphins owner Wayne Huizenga has ever made. He was less of a success than Dave Wannstedt and more of a traitor than Ricky Williams. There has been very little in franchise history that came with more expectations and fewer results than this hypocrite who at the end avoided the hard questions one last time.
Talk like a warrior. Behave like a weasel.
Maybe Saban would be better off in college. Because, in the pros the last few days, he has looked like a complete and utter amateur.
He will be remembered in these parts as a quitter and a liar. He leaves the franchise in last place, with what used to be his good name somehow far lower than that. And for this he'll get a $25 million raise and more job security in Alabama. Makes you wonder what USC's Pete Carroll or Ohio State's Jim Tressel are worth, doesn't it?
Larry Coker, a decent man, gets fired for his one championship. Saban, a duplicitous one, gets the most lucrative job in college football.
Saban could have fixed his reputation today if he had that mental toughness he is always sermonizing about. We have the meandering spiel memorized by now. About ''competitive character'' and ''overcoming adversity'' and blah, blah, blah. You preach it, Nick. But you don't live it. Not when it's easier to run away and hide.
Miami, 6-10 against an easy schedule, was swept this year by younger teams in its division -- the Jets and Bills. The team isn't better than when Saban arrived, just older. What little winning Saban has done has been with players left for him by Jimmy Johnson and Dave Wannstedt. What's the best decision Saban has made in two years? Can you name one?
So it makes sense that he would lack hope. But when his players are losing, he asks them to be proud and fight and overcome, even though what they do hurts a hell of a lot more than what he does. But now, reputation in tatters, integrity stained, he runs away from this fight -- to be a dictator to kids who question less and have less power to challenge him. Of course he'd go. It's a good deal easier. And a new crowd eager for a savior can hear his hot-air speeches about being a gladiator.
Saban made Huizenga look like a public fool with all his condescending talk of integrity recently, reprimanding reporters at every turn while his agent secretly kept taking slimy calls from Alabama in the shadows. What a raging fraud Saban sounds like today, every bit as counterfeit as Miami's Super Bowl expectations.
Oh, a man, even one under contract, is allowed to change his mind and listen to other offers, especially those that double his salary. But what makes Saban's behavior so unctuous recently is that he had the audacity to question the questioners with super-sized arrogance even while lying all along to his players and his boss. Huizenga has given this man everything he has wanted -- given him more than any NFL owner anywhere has given any other coach. He deserves better than this. He deserves better than Saban leaving him to answer the hard questions today.
Makes you wonder, too: Huizenga went after Ricky Williams and his money with cutthroat zeal, and Williams is still paying him back. But Saban just broke a contract, too. There are no outs in Saban's contract to go back to the minor leagues.
Remember how mad you were when Williams retired? Well, he wasn't cheating on you. He wasn't grabbing for more money. His body hurt from a beating, and he wanted to rest. What Saban has done is a more traitorous act -- the most traitorous act in the history of the franchise. He's leaving simply because he couldn't handle a hard job on the sidelines of a game in which he asks others to be violent. He gave up, in other words. And filing it under ''family'' now as a diluter, in search of understanding, rings hollow because you can't believe anything the man says about this situation. You think he'd be leaving if he were 13-3?
Saban, infomercial sermonizer, talked a lot about loyalty and integrity and toughness.
But, in the end, these were not his guides.
They were only the kinds of things he demanded of others.

41-14 - Domination!!!!

Die Notre Dame Die!!!

Thanks Les OUR FOOTBALL COACH!!!!

Thanks Jamarcus... great game!!!!

Thanks Tigers!!!!!!!

CRUSH THE IRISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GEAUX TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Monday, January 01, 2007

Notre Lame Rant

Okay...this one's real simple. Stop Brady Quinn. Offer beignets to Charlie Weiss and throw the damn football down the throat of the ND defense. They've lost two games to the Rose Bowl Duo...and got blown out bad by both. BEAT THE IRISH!!

Before my visceral hate for Auburn and USC (primarily due to ABC/ESPN and it's un-natural love for Pete Carroll), there were the Irish. Hate em!! Way too much media love for them. They've got their own crappy network and dominate their subpar schedule on an annual basis. Their boosters get away with more shennanigans than Bama and their treatment of Tyron Willingham was downright criminal. They've annointed Charlie Weiss (Jabba da Hut) as the next great incarnation of Knute Rockne. Damn they do sound like Bama fans...

Irish
The original bandwagon fan base. Before FSU, the U of Mia, and most recently So Cal...there were the Irish. Irish... losers of their last 8 bowl games. Losers of their last Bowl game against the fighting Dinard0's, losers to their only ranked opponents this year. Charlie Overhyped weiss and then there's Mr. Heisman runner -up...Brady Quinn. Brady's stats are nothing near Jamarcus Russell's for the year but then again...Brady plays for Notre Dame..... puke, vomit, gag!!!!
Smardja (???) the tight end... their only real offensive threat.

Tigers
Could this be the battle for the number one NFL QB pick??? Go Jamarcus!!!! (But please stay for one more year). Justin Vincent returns to the stadium and bowl game where he shined 3 years ago. Can he transport himself back to that guy for just one game???? Fear Les Miles... just ask the U of Miami.... Les beat em so bad they still haven't recovered. Perhaps Jimbo has a special game plan created on all those flights for job interviews??? Pelini's D has a chance to move up in the stats and is licking it's chops to crush the non-Heisman winner. LSU is the hometeam. Pregame in the Super Dome...da,da,da, ddddddaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..CHILLS!!!!

PREDICTION
There's no place like home in da Sugar Bowl!!! Jamarcus lights it up. Dwayne Bowe goes out in style. Trindon Holliday runs faster than the speed of light. KW and JV have some impressive runs right into the hearts of the Irish Fans. Brady Quinn doesn't finish the game thanks to a 3rd quarter sandwich of Dorsey and Landry. Tiger Catholics outnumber ND Catholics. Tiger fans scare the bejesus out of the bandwagoneers from the upper states.

LSU 47
Notre Dame 10

Brady Quinn gets to meet Glenn Dorsey and Company....

11 years ago today...


Dec. 29, 1995--Independence Bowl, Shreveport, Louisiana


Dinardo Beats Saban..

LSU plays in their first bowl game in 6 years. After 6 consecutive seasons, new Coach, Gerry Dinardo, brings the magic back to Baton Rouge temporarily. His Tigers defeat Michigan State, 45-26. The Spartans are coached that day by future LSU coach, Nick Saban. LSU has a kickoff return and long run by Kevin Faulk for scores as well as a fumble return by Gabe Northern. LSU goes to two more bowl ('96 Peach and '97 Indenpendence) before sliding back to their losing ways in 1998 and 1999. Saban comes to Baton Rouge in time for the 2000 season to set the Tigers in place to win the BCS National Championship in 2003.

Charlie Weiss Sighting...

Coach Charlie Weiss/Jabba the Hut




Separated at Birth?

Okay something has bugged me about Coach over-hyped Weiss for some time now. I think it most likely that he's kin to intergallatic swine Jabba the Hut. Is it just me or do you see a resemblance?

Dangit Bama..hire a coach... Dangit Saban say no..

from the Miami Herald...

SABAN'S NEW RULE

Saban, apparently annoyed at the persistent questions about Alabama's interest in him, said Wednesday he has a new policy on the matter that either shuts the door further on the rumors or fuels the speculation -- depending on one's viewpoint.
''I'm going to put them away right now,'' Saban said of the rumors during a conference call with Indianapolis reporters. ``I'm just making a rule that I'm never going to comment on something like that again because every time you comment, it makes another story. So I'm done. Five years from now, I won't comment on it. Next week, I won't comment on it. I'm done.''
Miami Herald sportswriter Jeff Darlington contributed to this report.

JRs Last Game as a Tiger??


Could this be JRs last game as a Tiger? Maybe so...well JR make it a remarkable one and Kick the Crap out of Notre Dame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gump?

Okay Saban (Sexton's still working on it) has said no for the 1oth time.

Maybe it's time for Bama to do what it always does...Hire one of the Bears' boys...

Forest Gump would be the perfect candidate... he could take care of the field, played for the bear and has that perfect Bama accent...

GUMP! GUMP!! GUMP!!!

Weiss...Yikes!!

Yikes!! Hide the children... he might eat them....

Still .... still...

Yes I know we play ND in about two weeks...but this Bama soap opera is just too fun ....

Hey Bama.... what about Jimbo?? He's interview everywhere else... give him a shot...


for my history on the Bama fiasco..I present to you.... Bama... according to Wikipedia..


from Wikipedia . . .

Recent history
Following the death of Bear Bryant, the Crimson Tide football program has had its high points and its low points. Since the retirement of Bryant, the team has had seven different head coaches: Ray Perkins, Bill Curry, Gene Stallings, Mike Dubose, Dennis Franchione, Mike Price, and Mike Shula. The Tide won its last national championship in 1992 against the University of Miami Hurricanes during the Stallings tenure.
Following Gene Stallings's retirement in 1996, defensive coordinator Mike Dubose was named head coach. He proved to be an excellent recruiter of defensive linemen, though as a head coach he wasn't as effective. He benefited tremendously from the leadership of Shaun Alexander and Chris Samuels, winning the SEC championship in 1999. Expectations quickly rose for the Tide, which started the season as high as No. 3 in some polls.
The Tide quickly lowered, ending up 3-8 in a season best exemplified by a last-second loss to Central Florida. Dubose was fired and replaced by an up-and-coming coach from TCU, Dennis Franchione.
The media-savvy Franchione gained popularity quickly with his coaching style and media-friendly press conferences. He led Alabama to two winning seasons in 2001 and 2002, going 7-5 and 10-3, respectively.
After NCAA sanctions hit in 2001, Franchione was rumored to be interested in other jobs, including the Kansas opening. One year later, under much media scrutiny, Franchione left for Texas A&M. After the well-documented Mike Price fiasco [3], Miami Dolphins quarterbacks coach Mike Shula was hired after a rushed search. It was his first head coaching job at any level. Shula went through many first-year pains, ending up 4-9 after suffering heartbreaking narrow defeats to Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee. Slight improvement during his second season sent the Alabama Crimson Tide to a 6-6 record and the Music City Bowl, its first bowl in three years. The season started off with great promise as the Tide rolled to a 3-0 start, but ultimately season ending injuries to the entire st arting backfield doomed the Tide's chances of any great successes. The
2004 recruiting class was Alabama's first "full" recruiting class since
2001 due to the harsh penalties imposed on the program by the NCAA resulting in the loss of 21 total scholarships over 3 years.
The NCAA penalties were caused by questionable recruiting tactics by an Alabama booster. The booster, Logan Young Jr. (an alumnus of Vanderbilt University), was sentenced to three years in prison for paying high school coach Lynn Lang $150,000 to get his Prep All-American defensive lineman Albert Means to go to Alabama. After the investigation was over, in addition to the loss of scholarships, Alabama was banned from bowl games for two years and was put on five years probation. Young later died in his Memphis home. Investigators initially concluded Young was violently murdered. However, the investigators ultimately concluded that Young's death resulted from a fall he sustained while walking up the stairs in his home.
In 2005, Alabama was indeed back. Alabama rolled to a 10-2 record including a thrilling 13-10 win over pass happy Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl. They had a dominating defense that shut down Texas Tech's offense.
The most points they gave up was 28, in a 28-18 loss to Auburn in the Iron Bowl. The Tide had trouble scoring at times because of a season-ending injury to Tyrone Prothro, Brodie Croyle's best target and because of poor play on the offensive line. They opened the season with a dominating 9-0 record, including beating the hated SEC rival, the Tennessee Volunteers, and manhandling the Florida Gators by a score of 31-3. A number 3 ranked LSU team ended their streak with a home-defeat in overtime, and the Tide lost to Auburn in the Iron Bowl the next week after the defense surrendered 21 first quarter points.
On November 27, 2006, after a regular-season campaign that ended in a disappointing 6-6 record (including losses of 8 points or less to conference opponents Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi State, and Auburn), head coach Mike Shula was fired and defensive coordinator Joe Kines was announced as Alabama's interim head coach.

3 Weeks...

3 weeks since Bama canned Shula...

Have they attempted to call him back in???

Have they contacted Dr. Frankenstein to re-animate the bear??

Hey Bama... I'll do the job for 1.5 million... with one condition....

you will lose to LSU every year... just like in the Shula years... but I guarantee I'll won't have a 5 year losing streak to Auburn.

Friday, December 08, 2006

Raise your hand if you've turned down the Bama Job...

WVU Coach (with a Pay Raise) Rich Rodriguez turns down Bama (or Coach DickRod as the Bama fans are calling him today....

So Bama...no Spurrier, no Saban, no Rich,

Who's it gonna be??

Let's see the last three coaches have been Mikes... Dubose/Price/Shula...

Mike Archer??? He's got HC experience in the SEC...

or how bout..

Tommy Tuberville... he knows how to win the Iron Bowl...

or Houston Nutt..... he's nuts... you'll love him... plus I'm sure Agent Jimmy Sexton would love to cut you deal since he couldn't convince his other client Nick Saban to go for your deal...

Call Jimmy Sexton.... (Agent for Tubby and Nutt)

Go to Hell Bama!!!

Hey what about Mike Shula...since you'll be paying him the next two years anyway..... ask him back... like an ex-girlfriend... or a jilted fiance... maybe ... just maybe...

20/20 Hindsight...

Stewart Mandel's August Prediction for this year's Tigers...

Who is going to be this year's Tennessee, a highly ranked team that falls on its face? -- Aaron, Dacula, Ga. I don't have the cojones to sit here and predict that one of the likely preseason top three teams (as Tennessee was last year) is going to wind up going 5-6, but there is at least one highly ranked squad that has all the makings of a big-time bust. That team, I'm sorry to report, is LSU. It's not hard to see why so many people are falling for the Bayou Bengals. They did go 11-2 last season, after all, and knocked the living bejesus out of Miami in the Peach Bowl. Seemingly their entire roster is made up of former Parade All-Americans (heck, their third-string quarterback was one of the biggest-name recruits in the country two years ago). However, the Tigers are also beset by at least three potential downfalls that most pundits seem to be conveniently overlooking.
1. A quarterback controversy: Matt Flynn's Peach Bowl performance may have been the worst thing that could have happened to the Tigers, because these things almost never end well. JaMarcus Russell is a proven, clutch performer (see last year's Arizona State and Alabama wins), yet the first time he screws up, people are going to be calling for Flynn. That's a huge distraction.
2. Depleted offensive and defensive lines: Besides having a proven quarterback, experience on the two lines is, to me, the most important criteria to consider when assessing a team's preseason prospects. Do people not realize that LSU lost three all-conference O-linemen (Andrew Whitworth, Rudy Niswanger and Nate Livings) and two All-America defensive tackles (Kyle Williams and Claude Wroten)?
3. Running back is a huge question mark: Joseph Addai never got much pub, but he was a first-round draft pick, leaving the Tigers dependent on two tailbacks, Alley Broussard and Justin Vincent, who are both coming off ACL injuries. If Broussard can return to his 2004 form, fantastic, but that's hardly a sure thing.

Of course, I myself overlooked all these when I ranked LSU No. 5 in my post-spring Top 25. But having had more time to think about it, I can't possibly see the Tigers losing fewer than three times in a schedule that includes road games at Auburn, Florida, Tennessee and Arkansas. The only question is whether there will be an all-out implosion, like last year's Vols. Anyway, sorry to spoil your party, Tigers fans ...


Stewart....You are TIGERBAIT!!!! JACKA$$

OK BCS Champs 2003???? I thought it was USC or was it....



from...Maxim....

gotta love the internet....


While we were shooting Miss Maxim last July, I couldn't help but notice a familiar headwear logo popular among the hard-working indigenous peoples of the Dominican Republic. When traveling abroad, it's always comforting to see a recognizable hallmark from the homeland, but these things were everywhere. Dominicans in America don't even like college football—what was the chance that University of Oklahoma football had become this beloved among la gente de la Republica Dominicana?
Closer inspection revealed that these were "Oklahoma 2003 National Champions" hats that go on further to boast of the school's eight-time status as title holders. Only problem here, as most all of you know, is that Oklahoma got pounded 56–21 in its final two games of 2003, losing the BCS National Championship Game to LSU. Evidently, someone slipped a crate or two of these presumptuous caps in one of our air-drop aid shipments to the Caribbean (I'm pretty sure U.S. policy dictates we not touch anything there) and the locals have taken to them like Dominicans to free hats!

..and pretty much everyone has turned down the Alabama job...

Raise your hand if you've turned down the job today....

From Wikipedia...the Bama story..


Recent history

Following the death of Bear Bryant, the Crimson Tide football program has had its high points and its low points. Since the retirement of Bryant, the team has had seven different head coaches: Ray Perkins, Bill Curry, Gene Stallings, Mike Dubose, Dennis Franchione, Mike Price, and Mike Shula. The Tide won its last national championship in 1992 against the University of Miami Hurricanes during the Stallings tenure.
Following Gene Stallings's retirement in 1996, defensive coordinator Mike Dubose was named head coach. He proved to be an excellent recruiter of defensive linemen, though as a head coach he wasn't as effective. He benefited tremendously from the leadership of Shaun Alexander and Chris Samuels, winning the SEC championship in 1999. Expectations quickly rose for the Tide, which started the season as high as No. 3 in some polls.

The Tide quickly lowered, ending up 3-8 in a season best exemplified by a last-second loss to Central Florida. Dubose was fired and replaced by an up-and-coming coach from TCU, Dennis Franchione.
The media-savvy Franchione gained popularity quickly with his coaching style and media-friendly press conferences. He led Alabama to two winning seasons in 2001 and 2002, going 7-5 and 10-3, respectively.
After NCAA sanctions hit in 2001, Franchione was rumored to be interested in other jobs, including the Kansas opening. One year later, under much media scrutiny, Franchione left for Texas A&M.

After the well-documented Mike Price fiasco [3], Miami Dolphins quarterbacks coach Mike Shula was hired after a rushed search. It was his first head coaching job at any level. Shula went through many first-year pains, ending up 4-9 after suffering heartbreaking narrow defeats to Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee. Slight improvement during his second season sent the Alabama Crimson Tide to a 6-6 record and the Music City Bowl, its first bowl in three years. The season started off with great promise as the Tide rolled to a 3-0 start, but ultimately season ending injuries to the entire st arting backfield doomed the Tide's chances of any great successes.

The
2004 recruiting class was Alabama's first "full" recruiting class since
2001 due to the harsh penalties imposed on the program by the NCAA resulting in the loss of 21 total scholarships over 3 years.

The NCAA penalties were caused by questionable recruiting tactics by an Alabama booster. The booster, Logan Young Jr. (an alumnus of Vanderbilt University), was sentenced to three years in prison for paying high school coach Lynn Lang $150,000 to get his Prep All-American defensive lineman Albert Means to go to Alabama. After the investigation was over, in addition to the loss of scholarships, Alabama was banned from bowl games for two years and was put on five years probation. Young later died in his Memphis home. Investigators initially concluded Young was violently murdered. However, the investigators ultimately concluded that Young's death resulted from a fall he sustained while walking up the stairs in his home.
In 2005, Alabama was indeed back. Alabama rolled to a 10-2 record including a thrilling 13-10 win over pass happy Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl. They had a dominating defense that shut down Texas Tech's offense.
The most points they gave up was 28, in a 28-18 loss to Auburn in the Iron Bowl. The Tide had trouble scoring at times because of a season-ending injury to Tyrone Prothro, Brodie Croyle's best target and because of poor play on the offensive line. They opened the season with a dominating 9-0 record, including beating the hated SEC rival, the Tennessee Volunteers, and manhandling the Florida Gators by a score of 31-3. A number 3 ranked LSU team ended their streak with a home-defeat in overtime, and the Tide lost to Auburn in the Iron Bowl the next week after the defense surrendered 21 first quarter points.
On November 27, 2006, after a regular-season campaign that ended in a disappointing 6-6 record (including losses of 8 points or less to conference opponents Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi State, and Auburn), head coach Mike Shula was fired and defensive coordinator Joe Kines was announced as Alabama's interim head coach.

LSU to the Sugar Bowl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Going Bowling...

But where?

USC loses ...messes everything up...but dang fun to watch

UF wins... hard to pull for anyone in that defensive struggle...sad..LSU when on is the best team in the SEC if not the country...

Fact ..LSU is 5 refs away from being mentioned as the team to take on Ohio State in all this mess...

Fact... LSU would give anyone in the top ten an incredible game

Big East... H.S. ball

Pac-10.... funny ... USC was the best team ever..... til... they lost to 7-5 UCLA... haha......

So what's ahead.... tomorro night..BCS selection show..

If UF gets the OSU matchup... Tigers to Sugar...unless Sugar decides to fill up some N.O. hotel rooms... then it's Orange or Crapital One

If Meechigan gets OSU again..death to BCS... UF to Sugar Bowl and LSU vs. USC in the Rose Bowl... BEEDLUM (sp?) will ensue......

STAY TUNED!!!!

...will Blanco call the Sugar and plead our case???????

By the way... off subject... University of Louisiana beat University of Louisiana today in Lafayette...

LSUal's Recommendation for Bama Coach

Hey Bama fans look no further than ESPN Radio for your next coach. LSUal recommends ESPNs Gerry (with a G) Dinardo. He has SEC experience... he can bring back the magic, heck he may have even one a game or two in Tuscalosa... he's got skills, he's not quite the bear but he may fit the houndstooth hat. Hey went to Notre Dame... ABC/ESPN would love you for that hire. He even thinks Dreamland ribs are good!!!

HIRE HIM!!! BRING BACK THE TIDE MAGIC!!!

HIRE GERRY "BEAR" DINARDO!!

..heck and you may have enough money left over to pay off Dubose's Contract, Price's Contract, Shula's Contract and have some left over to pay some recruits!!!

SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't screw this one up... PLEASE SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!

mmm... pork...

Tasty!!!!

Trindon Holliday you rock!!!

GEAUX TIGERS!!!

The best team in the SEC will not be in Atlanta next weekend... oh well...

First time ever 10 wins seasons back to back!!!!

It's Gameday by Jill...

The pork jokes just never get old...

Here we are at Thanksgiving
And the season comes down to this
A possible shot at a BCS game
Or a fall into the bowl game abyss

It's time for the yearly pig roast
Might I suggest pepper jelly with your meat?
Spicy is always a nice touch
And this win will be particularly sweet

It sounds like stopping McFadden
Is all The Tigers will have to do
Do they have any other players?
Does this guy do some coaching too?

The Tigers pulled off a wild one
Coach O brought out all the trickery
But Jamarcus and Dwayne made the connection
And the rest, as they say, is history

Let us all be thankful
And count our many blessings
I'll close with one more cooking tip
Add a little sausage to your dressings

GEAUX TIGERS!!!!!

BEAT ARKY!!!




Beat Arky!!! Because the punter is so damned annoying....

So Arkansas is the SEC West rep to the Atlanta. Tigers still have a chance to get the Dinardo/Ole Miss Co-Champ thing going with a victory...

Big win by the Tigers may get them into a BCS game (Sugar, Orange or Rose)

A loss gets a date with the Cotton Bowl and a 10:00 AM kickoff on New Years day... that'll be fun...NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Arkansas

Still led by Houston Nutt, the man Saban recommended for the LSU job.. but then of course we'd have a serious arrest record on the team and character issues..long standing traditions with a Houston Nutt club, QBs -Dick, Johnson and Mustaine. RB - McFadden, Punter - the Karate Kid. Winners of 10 straight... 1 loss ... 50 -14 to Southern Cal...gulp....

Tigers

Fresh off the stellar win over Ole Miss (hey at least it was exciting and the crowd stayed till the end of the game for once)....

Keys to victory:

On Defense - #1 Defense needs to Stop McFadden

On Offense - Throw the ball (i.e. - Jamarcus to Early and to Bowe... repeatedly), AND LES play the BEST PLAYERS....not the 'one's who've given their all for the program and are seniors...blah blah blah.' If the freshman is faster... PLAY HIM!!!

If the Sophomore can catch better ..PLAY HIM!!! Enough is enough. The player reward game plan from last weekend was absolutely pathetic. I'm all for giving #25 a chance... but that was my feeling 2 years ago... it almost cost us the game last week...against ole misery... GO TO HELL OLE MISS.. unless of course Arkansas has plastic grass... then he'll have a field (turf) day..... think about it ...Justin's biggest games are on that fake stuff and he's not very effective on the real stuff.....

PREDICTION:

More tums, rolaids, refs,etc........

LSU 24

Arkansuck 20

It's Gameday by Jill....

Thanks Seniors!

Chris Jackson, Garett Wibel, Justin Vincent, Dwayne Bowe, Ryan Gaudet, Jessie Daniels, Daniel Francis, Keron Gordon, Ryan Willis, Sammy Joseph, LaRon Landry, Chase Pittman, Keith Zinger, Terrell Clayton, Jason Spadoni, Peter Dyakowski, Leo Desselle, Paris Hodges, Doug Planchard, Craig Davis, Michael Ricks, Brian Johnson


Go to Hell Ole Miss, Go to Hell!

The class that never lost to Bama
And claimed College Football's biggest prize
For this special group of Seniors
It's time to say their Tiger Stadium goodbyes

The leg and the leadership of Chris Jackson
The dynamic duo of Buster Davis and Dwayne Bowe
The power and speed of LaRon Landry
And the unforgettable Justin Vincent show

A tale of two different programs
And a big game in 2003
One team rose to the challenge
The others will always wonder what would be

On that defining November Saturday
The rebs wilted in the spotlight's glare
Eli hit the turf
And it's all been downhill from there

4 years later for these Tigers
We look back on an incredible ride
Through coaches, championships and Katrina
They've done it all with heart and with pride

In other stadiums on this defining Saturday
The national picture will fall into place
One last Death Valley Saturday Night victory for these Seniors
And the LSU Tigers will state their case


GEAUX TIGERS!!!!!

GO TO HELL OLE MISS!! GEAUX TO HELL!


Ah yes the annual grudge match... the game that means everything to Ole Misery and has become nothing more than a mosquito bite on LSU's schedule. It used to be cool when this game was around Halloween and we'd see the Billy Cannon run on the local sports shows all week... heck it was even remotely interesting when the youngest Manning tripped but alas... Ole Miss is 3-7 and has sealed it's 3rd straight losing season. Coach O ..wow that was a brilliant hire...

FUTILITY!!!

Ole Miss.
Pathetic.

Bama....Bama...Bama won't you bite my...

After the first 30 or so years of life watching Bama win every flippin' game in Tiger Stadium... Saturday was extra special.

A win is a win.

and 28-14 ... was not too bad.

And as an added bonus I've never seen so few Bama fans at the LSU/Bama game in Tiger Stadium. Guess they sold half their allotment to Tiger Fans this year.

Giving up on ole Shula aren't you Bama fans??? Please keep him. Please.

It's Gameday by Jill.....

Beat Bama!

Who's that cocky bunch
You most love to hate?
The ones you want to kick while they're down
And drown with taunts of "Tiger Bait!"

Well guess what, Tiger fans
'tis that time of year
When the autumn air turns crisp and cool
And the checkered hats appear

Over there at the capstone
Things aren't going so great
While we were silencing the orangebillies
Shula's boys were losing to State

In that crazy, hard-fought road win
These Tigers showed they know how to finish
Sometimes it wasn't pretty
But it's a top 10 win you can't diminish

Now let's not underestimate
The power of an SEC tradition
These bammers will bring their A game
And we'll still beat them into submission

It's a great time to be a Tiger Fan
The home game curse is dead
And once again this Saturday night
We'll put that baby to bed

GEAUX TIGERS!!!!!
