Is LSU going to the Rose Bowl? |

Florida messes EVERYTHIHNG up.
Trust me.
If you doubt me, ask Milky. |

It kind of doesn't matter if Florida loses, right? We beat Arkansas. It's a toss-up as far as I can tell. Oh, how I would relish LSU v. Michigan in the Rose Bowl.
But yeah, Ed, you're right. Florida DOES mess everything up. Ask my dead cousin.

If Florida beats Arkansas, LSU will most likely play Michigan in the Rose Bowl in Pasedena for the first time ever. With a $17 million payout. Either that or the Orange Bowl, also $17 million. If Arkansas wins, LSU might go to the Capital One Bowl for $5 million. LSU splits the money up with the rest of the SEC though. |

That's the way the news explained it anyway. It seems like LSU should go to the Rose Bowl regardless, but if Florida loses, they might be the #2 SEC team instead of LSU. Or there's talk that the Rose Bowl might take Notre Dame. Which would be idiotic seeing as Notre Dame played a bunch of cream puffs (their last games included Stanford, UCLA, Navy, UNC, Air Force, and Army) and then got destroyed by USC and Michigan by a combined 46 points. They looked terrible last week at USC. But Notre Dame is Notre Dame with their big TV audience and prestigious bs. LSU played all 4 road games against top ten teams which is pretty unheard of. |

les miles is a michigan guy though. he's starting to look like a decent coach. alabama is trying to hire saban. |

| katie [email] said at 9:35 AM 11-29-2006:
do you really think that's gonna happen?
i heard there was also buzz on spurrier.
as i told my mother on the phone earlier this week (she's an alabama alum), there isn't enough money IN alabama to get saban away from the NFL. i know he's losing with the dolphins, he probably feels somewhat humbled, but come onnnn. no way, right? |

the dolphins are actually looking like they might be decent, they've won their last four straight. but they started 1-6 so saban is still probably on the hot seat. they weren't expecting him to win right away, but it is the nfl. i think it's very unlikely that saban would even admit to considering any offer unless he gets fired. most likely it won't happen though. he would probably go to another nfl team.
spurrier, on the other hand, is so egotistical that he would rather lose at south carolina, where he can at least control everything, than alabama, where the alumni would be constantly telling him what to do and he is probably as reviled as he is in baton rouge. but alabama is in pretty bad shape and would love to have either of those guys. they've had like 5 coaches in the last 10 years. |

Alabama wouldn't hire Spurrier to park cars in the valet lot. He is much reviled, and the fact that his name is being bandied about makes me laugh. |
|
| andrew [email] said at 4:56 PM 11-29-2006:
I love to watch him lose. I think Alabama just put those names out there to stir up trouble. |

I've heard the ol' Ball Coach's name tied in with Miami...
I happen to be a Spurrier fan by the way. |

| andrew [email] said at 7:45 PM 11-29-2006:
Maybe I'm wrong but it seems like he would run up the score against LSU with every chance he could, and in general was a pretty arrogant guy. He's a good college coach though. He had a lot of trick plays like Houston Nutt, things that would never work in the pros. |

Oh, Reggie. How I have loved thee as a brother. But this may be something that cannot be overcome.
Steve Spurious is a douchenozzle that cannot win as a quarterback (yes, he was one of the first QBs of my beloved Buccaneers - I believe he was even on a Sports Illustrated cover in the ol' Orange and White) *or* a coach outside the ranks of college football.
His suckitude would set Alabama Football back into the 13th century.
I... I still love you, but, damn... this is hard to accept.
PS - The University of Miami, or the Miami Dolphins? Because, if it is the former, it will cement UM as the most sphincterish of college football teams EVAR. If it's the Dolphins, I would hate to stop rooting for them whenever they're not playing Tampa Bay. |

this is why i love spurrier.. he pisses off floridians sooo much. i hope he stays at south carolina for a long long time. |

spurrier... pisses off floridians sooo much.
That may or may not be true. However, your assertion has nothing to do with my hatred.
I may be a Floridian, but you'll never see me root for the Gators.
Unless they're unranked and they're playing a ranked Tennessee team.
Roll Tide!
Seriously, the incident where Spurious refused to shake Bowden's hand after an FSU-UF game cemented it. But I've hated his ass since the mid/late-70s... well before I moved to Florida. |
