Just to give you a picture of where we are as power 5 defense. No one will doubt that we have more talent than all of these teams (even with the portal players and freshmen we have). So Matt House? and some of these position coaches? Bruh! YA'LL GOTS TA GO! You ain't got to home, but you got to get the hell up outta here!

What you waiting on BK
Do your JOB!!

From @Luke Hubbard

they are agonizing to watch, F up after F up. This game shouldn't even be close.

One book has it 7.5 plus but all the rest @ +4.5. This means LSU is +1-.1.5 on a neutral field.

...we can add putting me in a position to have to cheer for Texas 8&4 to the pile.

...it's game day

Michigan sign stealing crap, My paranoia has me hoping that Coach Kelly has already planned to change his signals for the second half. I would not put it past the midget to have a plan to steal LSU’s signals. The gumps have had some miraculous second half comebacks recently and it cannot be just an awesome coaching job. I do not doubt sign stealing is not part of it. Like I said it is my paranoia. JMHO

Saban you prick.

@Luke Hubbard returns with his bold predictions feature.

It’s apparent that every head coach the first day on the job is handed a thin booklet entitled “ Coach Speak “

This is required reading and contains every trite saying that has been used since the beginning of team sports

As fans we have been continuously exposed to the materiel in the booklet. since we began following sports

These sayings are splashed in bold headlines declaring that Coach Jones says that opponent has the best QB ever , the best defense of all time

Take Those ridiculous 20 sec. takes as the harried head coach is running off of the field at half time and a shapely young sideline reporter thrusts a microphone in his face to ask “ Coach , what do you think of your defense so far “
the coach responds “ We just have to tackle better” then dashes off leaving the audience to say “ now that was very enlightening “

This was in Brian Kelly's 10/30 media availability notes, but Mekhi Wingo is likely out for the season. Coach Kelly says he had surgery and is out for at least six weeks, so he could be back for a bowl game/CFP, but he's likely done for the year.

Kim Mulkey previews LSU's matchup with #20 Colorado.

• First thing she notices about Colorado is their upperclassman. 7 of their 8 main players are upperclassman. They're an experienced and talented group.
• Also mentions they played their conference tournament in the venue they're playing in on Monday. Could be an advantage for Colorado.
• Like the energy the ball movement from her starting lineup last night was really good. Needs to continue to work on the defensive end, but she feels they can get there with more experience.
• She's really excited for the documentary coming out tonight on the team last season. She's really proud of the team at LSU that built it, because she thinks it's really good. Said she teared up watching it.
• She talked about having celebrities and millionaires on her team. She said nothing about the coaching or locker room is different, the only thing that's different is the outside noise. She doesn't pay attention to social media or anything, and the only time she sees them is if someone sends it to her.
• She says Colorado is playing LSU at the right time. She knows the Buffalos are good, and she's still trying to figure out who to play in what situations.
• Said the starting five from last night will likely be the starting five for Colorado, but she could switch the starting five the very next game. She's basing it all on matchups.
• Said she's more worried about the security for her players in Vegas than she is with her team being distracted. Said they'll spend some time having fun, but it's a business trip and they know that.
• Felt her players began to "coast" during the exhibition game. They saw the score and started to let off the gas, but they can't do that on Monday.
• Says HVL is a "basketball junky." She's never been a true point guard, but she's going to become LSU's primary ball handler. They won't take her shots away, but they need her to be a facilitate the offense. Says her transition will be similar to Alexis Morris from last year.
• Says she doesn't care about the criticism about their non-conference schedule. Outside of Colorado and VT, they don't play a ranked team in non-conference play. She's not worried, she had a weaker schedule last season and they won the natty.
• Said she would have liked to ease into the schedule, but saw this game as an opportunity to challenge and humble her team early. It won't make the team devastated if they lose, it would just make them hungrier.
• Said Colorado plays a lot of man-to-man, but she saw on film that they are willing to play zone. They need to be ready for both.

Hit it

I'd walk into battle with this guy, anytime, anywhere.

Former Tulane guard and Walker, Louisiana native, Jalen Cook, had his waiver denied by the NCAA. Cook looked like he was going to be LSU Men's Basketball's next star, but he is now ineligible to play this season. LSU sent additional information to the NCAA to see if they'll reconsider his case, but as of now, LSU will be without Jalen Cook for the season. A big blow for Matt McMahon and LSU Men's Basketball.
