    "Gig 'em Aggies" is actually written in the concrete outside of Neyland. I noticed it the other day. I don't know how long it's been there, but that concrete is at least a few years old, so it was done before they joined the SEC. :lol3

    Freshman has never won. Took 72 years for the first sophomore, Tebow, to win. (Bradford and Ingram followed) History does not look kind on Johnny Football winning this year. Geez, you win it your freshman year, what is left? NC? Maybe....but that is a big if. I would bet they will make him duplicate this years results before giving him the award.

    I still favor Montee Ball who has produced every year. Set records. And just gets the job done.

    I agree and disagree. Rex Grossman lost out on the Heisman because of this Sophomore Bias and it ended up being a 'career' award. The Heisman is supposed to be for the best player in a given year. Manziel is that player this year. Who gives a shit what year he is. He's set all sorts of records, beat Bama...in Bama. It would suck for him to have a year like this and then get injured next year and never get a sniff again. JMHO...

    You know, if I knew I was going to walk away with 7.5 mil if I got fired I'd call every customer we got TOmorrow and tell them to suck my nuts then go tweedle my dick in the bosses ear while he filled out the paperwork.

    :nod Before I could have an easy trip down to UTEP-- Would have in 2014 anyhow. Plus the Texas Schools-- Rice/SMU/Houston and Okie's Tulsa were easy (cheap) SWA flights....

    This year I got to three games, Rutgers in N.O., UTEP and Houston. (last weekend) Which is the same number of UNM games I went to.

    Now easy will be SMU. SDSt will make a fun weekend. And of course home games in N.O.

    I just hope they play BC at some point.

    Miles to Arkansas? :eek1

    I bet he gets a nice new contract from LSU. :deal


    Les Miles has 'serious offer' from Arkansas, according to report

    Hell, If I were LSU, I'd dare him to leave. No one's leaving LSU for Arky.



    ...and Should we just change the name of the ACC to the "Big East" and Big East to "Conference USA"?

    Damn, this is getting better & better. In the Big East, Boise State only had Temple as our long time rival.

    Now we have Tulane as well. Whoopa! At least the away games will be fun. :freakyThey should let Idaho in as well. :puke1

    Beat Nevada and BSU shares the MW Title w/ 10 wins. OK for a serious rebuilding year but 7 points away from a prefect season. Still need a kicker and hopefully the Florida kid - Nick Patti had a decent redshirt year and will challenge at QB next season.

    Spoiled. Headed again for the Vegas Muffler Bowl I'd bet. :evil

    I heard on the radio on the way to work today that Les Miles was meeting with Arkansas's AD this morning.

    I agree, I seriously doubt that he is going anywhere, he is however going to be asking LSU to open up the piggy bank before this all over.
