re: Miss State (32-16) projected #12 seed and LSU (32-18) on the bubble

Who you beat matters more than "bad losses". Everyone loses games. But good teams beat other good teams. Average teams only beat bad or other average teams.
To that end, MSU is 10-9 vs. Q1 opponents. LSU is 5-9. And two of those wins literally just came about this weekend.

Not any time soon...because there is always going to be a donor/booster who is desperate. Just click over on Tiger Rant.

largely irrelevant. All one has to do is go back to 2021 to see that. Georgia was seeded higher than LSU in the SEC tournament. Georgia beat LSU in the opening game of the tournament to eliminate LSU. LSU made the NCAA Tournament. ...

Illustrates what we already knew. LSU is not in TODAY, but they have a chance to play their way in over these final two weeks. However, they have no margin for error.

re: What's your most desperate hookup story?

I guess this counts as desperate. But ultimately I'm glad it happened because it created a shell of "relation-armor" that would serve me well after.
Dated a girl in college for about 2 years. I was "all in". It turns out she probably never was. Sometime near the end of the spring semester she...
re: Lingering questions following spring football from each Way-Too-Early Top 25 team

LSU has 8 listed DTs on the current roster:
Guillory
Lee
Washington
Breaux
McKinley
De'Myrion Johnson
Makene'ole
Paez
So the narrative that they have "no one" is false. They have bodies. Now, if you want to say there are big question marks as to how productive that group will be I thin...

The theme of it being over-the-top stoner/weed-centric is kind of ridiculous (i.e. naming their sandwiches after some varieties of weed and other stoner lingo). But otherwise, the food is pretty good. So don't let the theme deter you from trying it. ...

They didn't have to. All they had to do was convince ($$$) them to give their mail-in ballot to the campaign worker. The "campaign" saved them the trouble of actually filling it out and mailing it in.
