I'm starting this early since people will be traveling and because LSU plays tomorrow at College Station against Texas A&M. It has been a sad season for LSU in what was supposed to be a great season. I have no idea how the team will react to last week's heartbreaking loss. Who does your team play? GEAUX TIGERS!!  |

IRON BOWL WEEK in the state of Alabama. I'll be at work, but I'll probably be listening on my phone.  It's also the first football season since I've been dating a Bama fan. We'll get to see who is a good winner/loser! |

Sorry anxiousmom, I couldn't resist. This Gator loves fried gator tail. 😂 It's going to be a fun one for sure. I can't wait!! I know you are so excited to go to the game!! I'm just sorry you are traveling all that way for a loss. lol (said in the best spirit of the rivalry and all in good fun because if the lsu game taught me nothing it is that it only takes 3 seconds and 2yards for the winds of fortune to blow the other way. lol) |

Sorry anxiousmom, I couldn't resist. Kimberlee, what is the chatter in Tallahassee regarding Jimbo and LSU's supposed offer? Definitely a season of discontent in BR. There is the keep Coach O crowd, the hire Jimbo crowd and the hire Herman crowd. It's bringing too much stress into my life! |

Well anxiousmom, you would always be welcome at our tailgate. We always have plenty of cold beer and yummy food. No worries about the orange and blue; all are welcome. :-) cadoodlebug, the chatter is all over the place, but I just don't see it happening. Jumbo has it too good at FSU. He is currently working out a new deal with the administration for more $$$ for his coaching staff and more control over the football program. Rumor has it that LSU is throwing the "kitchen sink" at Jimbo and basically offering him a shit ton of money and other bonuses including a housing allowance. My feeling (which doesn't mean a pile of doodoo) is that he won't leave Tallahassee while his kids are young. One of his kids has fanconi anemia and gets treatment at the children's hospital in Gainesville, and if he leaves Tallahassee, I would imagine he would have to leave his kids behind with his ex wife. I just don't see it happening. Jimbo has it good at FSU. He has a young, talented team and a hot shot QB and possibly a shot at the NC next year. Who knows, though?  There is definitely some uncertainty as Jimbo has been playing it very close to the vest. Most in the athletic department feel he is going to stay, but until LSU hires someone, rumor is going to run rampant. Texas apparently wants him, too. |

It is crazy the rumors running rampant. Makes me crazy. The latest rumor is that he countered our *shit load of money* and is good to go. I call BS on it. From everything I have seen, the players really want LSU to retain Coach O which is exactly what happened to him at USC but the powers-that-be said no. Then their program went downhill when they hired a different coach. I'm sure Jimbo is using all the this to his advantage. |

Dear Santa....Can we have a new coach for Christmas this year? Please and thank you! To say I am disappointed in Ole Miss today would be a gross understatement.  Oh well, DH is happy to say the least, since his team is who beat the snot out of us. At least I don't have to bother with any bowl games this year!  |

Coach Orgeron was named as LSU's new head coach after going 5-2 since he took over mid-season as the interim coach. As expected fans are divided on the hire. Those who like Coach O will be referred to as the *CheeriOs* and those who don't will be the *Uh-Ohs*.  |

It has been a loooong and painful season for us Fighting Irish fans. I am waiting and watching to see if Brian Kelly is gonna get the boot.

Ohio State beats Michigan in 2OT. Oh my goodness what an ending!! That was a great game to watch! My SIL is a Michigan grad, so I had such mixed feelings. But the bottom line is with UM's loss and our win against Michigan State a few hours later, Penn State is headed to the Big Ten championship game!!!!  SaveSave |

I'm pouting this morning. And thinking that smarty pants boys who think they know everything should not be allowed access to snapchat in which to try to sneak in nanny nanny booboos at their mother who doesn't think they are all that cute with all their 'we won' and fireworks and 'yay, I'm so glad I decided to go to FSU and not that other school...' Kymberlee I am officially laying the box of bragging rights at your feet. Y'all outplayed us without question. I am (genuinely) happy that since you made that long awful trip from afar that you got to win the game y'all came to. I wish we didn't have so many hurt players and could have put up more of a fight, but after being in the middle of this rivalry for the majority of life, I know that there is zero rhyme or reason or excuse-it is THE game. Some years you win, sometimes you lose and you always love the game. So congratulations!! (although, you know what? I am not going to congratulate the boy yet. He annoyed me.  ) |

Really wanted Michigan to win! Wilton Speight, Michigan quarterback, is my husband's cousin. We were really pulling for Michigan this year.
My Terps finally won a game!

The play calling has been horrendous this year & publically blaming the losses on his players and assistant coaches while refusing to accept any responsibility for himself as head coach is just unacceptable. The academic scandal should be the nail in his coffin. ND can do better. My son went to ND and the Irish have a special place in my heart right next to my Sooners. I follow ND pretty closely and just hated to see what was going on this season. |

We are finally starting to stir this morning after a very long day and night. Man, I love my team and I'm so sad that the season is almost over. The stadium was rocking last night. Sorry your kid is being an annoying brat, anxiousmom, but well ya know. One of these days, he'll have to eat crow but not for the next 364 days. As you know, bragging rights are fleeting. I'm gonna enjoy it while I can, though. It was actually a pretty tame crowd last night. I've been to games that have gotten really ugly. We head baxk back to Germany this evening. I think it might take me a month to get over this trip. I sometimes think I'm getting too old for this shit. |
