must be some manufacturing anomaly, I too notice this cap not following traditional logo protocols and traditions. the exhortation to "geaux" is indeed inverted and is less pleasant for the casual reader.

Chris Carrier thank you for your services. Should have gotten Tommy Hodson to play, he was All State in basketball.

They designed it in a mirror and when they realized their mistake, they said screw it, no one’s showing up anyway.

Honor them with the hollowed out carcass of the program they once made great.

Hodson was too valuable for the forthcoming football season to risk injury on the court. This was 1986-- Hodson's freshman season. Hodson was only eighteen and still in Central Lafourche (Mathews) High during LSU's Final Four campaign season.

Josh and I were discussing this earlier.

Some books (FD, DK) have LSU -1.5

Others (mgm) have Mizz -1.5

Advanced stats support this. However, back out Thomas contributions and add a recent performance bias and Mizzo by 6 looks good.

Is Thomas available to play today? I haven't seen anything in regards to his status for today's game

If so, facto.
If not, we got no shot.

Listed as doubtful. I’m taking that to mean he’ll still be out.

I thought it was originally designed for the gymnastics team because they spend half their time upside down.

Hold on a second. Are you saying this team overcame multiple obstacles and still advanced to the Final 4? Mcspuffdork claims this isn't possible!!

In all seriousness, I remember this season well and was crushed when we lost in Dallas to Louisville after leading by 8 at halftime in the Final 4.

I grew up with Dale's program, and it still saddens me that he couldn't win it all. I thought 1981 was the year, but Rudy got hurt. Injuries are part.of the game though.
