With 11:30 left in 4th - 38 - 21 ATM.
44-21. I've heard Kendall Bussey's name called a lot too.

And did I hear Les Miles' voice in the Nebraska loss?

45-21

Baylor headed for 0-3. What's that now? 9 losses in a row? 10?

Memphis takes down ranked UCLA. That's a very nice win for the conference.

I don't want him to lose too much. They may go out and hire a good coach.

Go on to the WatchESPN app or website and watch the short video clip, "sad fans from week 3." Between LSU and what Tanner Lee did at NU, it might make you feel a little better.

I'm surprised no one is talking up Vandy after they beat a ranked Kansas St. team to go 3-0. Surprise team of the year so far? I don't know what their final record will be but they're half-way to a Bowl and have a marquee win to their name.

They'll get a chance to show their stuff this weekend when they host the Tide.

If he goes 2-10 and gets fired, and LSU gets a real coach who wins 5 straight national titles, it would be a good deal for both Tulane and LSU.

Eh, I can get over that. I'd rather see LSU keep Orgeron and lose.

This.

I see no advantage to Tulane University of Louisiana for either Baton Rouge or Lafayette to give fans a reason to support them over the Wave.

Does no one remember the great years we were having when Saban and Miles were winning championships?

show your work.

If the reported buyout numbers are accurate, LSU is stuck with Orgeron for this year and probably through next year. I think LSU's next move will be to can their AD, who never saw a stupid buyout he didn't love, and from the moment the next guy takes the job Orgeron will be on death watch. Their fans are predictably panicking but they shouldn't be. Florida showed the way by sticking with Ron Zook for two and a half years before announcing the inevitable. Let Orgeron recruit and hand over a solid roster to a good guy and LSU should be fine.

Your scenario may be unfolding at Nebraska The AD was canned today.

the hire of Mike Riley looked strange at the time. Scott Frost would be a popular hire but is he ready?
