Link Gumbo 11/21/11
Very brief Gumbo. This week be crazy, y'all
Thoughts and prayers this week with the Arkansas family after the shocking death of RS Fr. TE Garrett Uekman yesterday.
And also with our Dawg friends this morning on the death of College Football broadcasting legend Larry Munson.
Biggest win over Ole Miss ever? Yes, biggest win over Ole Miss ever.
And yes, lets all relish in Ole Miss's impressive 4th Qtr Goal Line Stand.
You're going to hear about them all week, so here are the SEC tiebreakers, explained in english.
Meanwhile, EVERYTHING ELSE went crazy in college football this weekend.
The Ole Miss Post Game Locker Room IN 360 DEGREE FUZZY SURROUND-O-VISION!
Via Red Cup Rebellion, the game (and the Ole Miss season, really) summed up in a few seconds of video.
Missed this last week, Brad Wing got a profile in the Wall Street Journal. Wing also had an interview on Australian sports talk radio, which sounds exactly like you think it does.
The Men's Basketball team went 2-2 on the Carolina road trip, with wins over WKU and Georgia Tech to cap the weekend. More on this from actioncuse later this week.
The Lady Tigers started the week with it's best non-conference win in years and then dropped an headscratcher against Tulane. Something else we missed last week: Coach Caldwell is pregnant and expecting in March.
Press Conference later today, but REMEMBER WHAT'S AT STAKE THIS WEEK! 200 POUNDS OF 24KT GOLD! 4FT TALL AND SHARP AS A RAZOR! ITS BEEN KNOWN TO MAIM A WR OR 2 IN IT'S DAY! AND...It's no longer the stupidest trophy we play for!
DAS BOOT!

Wing radio interview
I know you guys won’t believe this, but still…
In that radio interview, to an Australian ear, Wing sounds completely different from when he is interviewed in the US. On the radio, he is speaking purely with an Australian accent. When he is interviewed in the US (e.g. the post-game interviews), however, there is a clear American accent as well (he is still obviously Australian, and Australian is the dominant accent, but there are significant American sounds also).
It is interesting how he picks up the accent being used around him.
That's a fairly common thing for anyone with an accent living in a different area.
2011 LSU Accolades:
"Saban thoroughly outcoached by Miles" -Jen Engel, Fox Sports
"I really like corndogs" -Sparky
"Imperial Intergalactic Overlord Barkevious Mingo" -Andy Staples
"If Alabama's defense is a boa constrictor, slowly sucking the life out of opposing offenses, LSU's is more like a goon that throws the offense into a burlap sack and starts beating it with a stick." -Matt Hinton
"Oregon’s Chip Kelly is generally considered a coaching mastermind. Miles toyed with him here Saturday night." -Dan Wetzel, Yahoo Sports
"I don’t want to say that I think Mo Claiborne is faster than Patrick Peterson…..but I think Mo Claiborne is faster than Patrick Peterson." -Les Miles

"Dracula and LSU are at their best after the sun goes down." - ESPN
The only thing
…that would have made that interview any better would have been his announcement that he was dating Homecoming Queen Mo Isom!
Those guys trying to get him to talk about the chicks falling all over him was quality radio. Evidently, LSU had someone nearby so he didn’t say anything too outrageous. It was fun to listen to. Thanks for providing that link.
Booing = farting. Booing can’t come with caveats and neither can farting. . .You drop that bomb and it’s going everywhere, spreading out evenly across the kill zone. You can try and blame it on someone or something else, but no one is buying. Just don’t do it. - tigerarchitect (2011)
They say we dont have a superstar for heisman
What about Brad Wing?
LSU is an 800 lb gorilla. With a chainsaw as a penis.

I certainly want to win the game
but that boot trophy? They can keep it if they like.
Better to die happy than to live miserably.

we like it...
and we like that it currently sits in the Razorback trophy hall
"I solemnly swear to tell the truth as I know it, the whole truth as I believe it to be, and nothing but what I think you need to know."
I want the trophy...
I wanted the Alabama game and I want this one the same amount. Cannot STAND Arkansas. At all.
I want to seriously drub Arkansas for that 3 out of the last 4 stat!
Damn, I don’t think any other team in College Football frustrates me more than the Hogs.
