    That LSU hasn't polished off a Chapel Hill team decimated by suspensions and under the NCAA microscope isn't going to to sit well with the supporters.

    Yes, LSU held on - barely - but if the Tigers are going to compete in the SEC, it had better learn a lot in a hurry. And a little less defensive talk from Les Miles wouldn't hurt the cause.

    If ever there was a time to drop the No. 21 team in the polls after it beat the No. 18 team ...

    LSU barely beat a North Carolina team that had been reduced to the level of Elon with the suspensions. T.J. Yates, of all people, lights them up for 400-plus yards. Les Miles is atrocious. When will the administration at LSU realize that.

    If LSU had lost that game, fans would not have demanded his firing in Red Stick. They would have demanded he be waterboarded.

    edit: in hindsight, they might *still* demand a waterboarding.

    If he answered truthfully...
    Erin Andrews: Coach, as T.J. Yates was leading the team down the field in the final seconds, what were you thinking?
    Les Miles: Whether they'll fire me at the end of the season, or just push me out of the plane somewhere over Alabama. Oh ... rainbows, unicorns and teddy bears, too.

    That's the worst showing by a Kansas team since the Texas State Armadillos tied them 3-3 in a driving rainstorm in the 1990 season.

    And Houston Nutt was the receivers coach on Crowe's staff for that season ... err, game.

    He's in school but is not with the team. Left camp in early August for what has been described as personal reasons.

    If you believe what you read on the interwebs he either:

    1. Is thinking about transferring due to the logjam at runningback - Robinson, Hampton & Wegher are all sophomores.

    2. Got his girlfriend pregnant.

    3. Got his girlfriend and another girl pregnant.

    Don't you remember Gill's introductory presser? He said the team's top priorities were recruit, recruit, recruit, recruit and recruit. Nowhere was there any mention of winning.

    Just how the hell Turner Gill got hired at Kansas is completely beyond me. Hell, he had a losing record at Buffalo, his last job. Not exactly Vince Lombardi in waiting.

    Oh, well, it's Kansas. Maybe they should just go back to scheduling Northern Colorado for home openers like last season.

    Didn't realize the Texas QB was Gale Gilbert's kid. Man do I feel old. But how the hell did Gale Gilbert end up in Texas? He grew up in California, never played for a Texas team in the pros.
