What is LSU's 2009 Game of the Year?

by PodKATT on Dec 30, 2009 3:17 PM CST in News

At the end of tonight's Women's v. Xavier game, LSU will have played it's final game of calendar year 2009. It's been an awesome year, all things considered.

Only 12 to choose from in Football (last year's bowl shellacking of GT was on new years eve so it doesn't count). Tulane is a personal favorite just because we sent them away in style. The Arky game was pretty good. Maybe the Bama game right up till them moment Peterson cramped up.

Baseball has so many to choose from. The Tulane Called-game was so epic. The late night marathon against UGA to stay alive for the SEC Championship. Not to mention the Texas series finale/victory lap.

Basketball had a nice return to winning ways. The tourney games were alright, but far and away the Double Overtime thriller at MooU (which nobody saw) was the most exciting of their season.

Any personal favorites I'm missing? Speak up in the comments and I'll put together a poll for next week.

Taz's Game-winner at Rupp Arena was huge.

I also loved the Georgia game.

Game 1 of the CWS Final

Tense game. Great rally. Just an awesome game. One of the best I’ve ever seen.

Also, first game in the New Box against Illinois. Got the chills.

Not much to do with this, just some thoughts

1. With Leach’s firing, does anyone think it will help our recruiting at all? According to ESPN, Jackson Richards, a 4 star DE, had LSU as his second choice after TTU. Anyone think he might decommit and come over?

2. How good would Leach be as OC at LSU? I think that would be a great hire, although I don’t know how eager we would be to hire someone who just got fired for mistreating players.

3. What’s going on with Chavis and Georgia? Do you guys think he will stay here or leave?

uhh.

1. It’s a pretty good chance. LSU is hitting the trail hard to make up lost ground as soon as they get back to BR. I have to believe this kid went to the top of the list with his firing.

2. The issues make him near untouchable except for the desperate. I see him at Cincy next year. Besides that, it feels more and more like Crowton will still be with us next year.

Still, the Jean Lafitte jokes would be just awesome to envision.

3. All signs point to him staying, but UGA’s offering is rumored to be nearly double what we are paying him. Even if he really likes it here, It’s not like we haven’t seen coaches throw it all out the window for more $$. My 8 ball sez “No”

As far as #2

I see your points, but apparently TT has been trying to get rid of Leach for a while, I guess their sports program didn’t get along well with their winningest coach. So if the story turns out to not be so bad after all, I think there could still be a chance. But do you think he would want to? Or would he just try to be the HC somewhere else?

Throw all football games from this year out

For me, game one of the CWS final against Texas gets my vote.
