    I don't know where the "LSU fans smell like corndogs" thing came from, but I can't think of a better (or more specific) intercollegeiate put-down of an entire fanbase. But to me - I love the smell of corn dogs, smells like victory. Geaux Bayou Bengals.

    Chatter already beginning about the Pac-12 officials on the game. Hopefully, it's a quiet night for them, on the field and in the replay booth.

    Who is it? If it's Michael Mothershead, it's a disaster waiting to happen, and a 4-hour game because of interminable replays.

    Noted: I know the replay communicator, not the main replay official, on the game. He previously worked a CFP title game and will vouch for him day and night. But, again, he's just the communicator.

    I think his crew already worked a NY6 game, so probably won;t get this one.

    Walking up to Tiger Stadium for a game in the 80s
    Walked past a dorm room in the stadium
    Sitting on the balcony was a dude with a confederate flag hanging in his living room
    The stereo was belting out Leave This Long Haired Country Boy Alone by Charlie Daniels
    Glass of Jack in one hand
    Joint in the other
    Taking in the scene
    In honor of him, I say GEAUX TIGERS!!!

    Apropos to nothing:

    I went to college in the 1970s with a football player, the son of a well-known NFL coach, who became an NFL general manager. Besides being well-known as an asshole to anyone who wasn't a jock, he also was renowned for standing up and waving a Confederate flag at basketball games when (unfortunately) Dixie was played on the PA system to rile up the fan base.

    I will also be rooting for LSU, if only to end the Clemson "dynasty."

    I rooted for Clemson to break up the Bama lock on college football. Now, they've become the machine.

    LSU is probably just as much a machine as Clemson (and Bama) but I truly enjoy Oregeron and his apparent lack of pretense. Geaux Tigers!!

    Not to go all Dr. Z, but my god that's a slow rendition of the national anthem.
