LSU-Alabama rivalry has claimed it's second murder victim in two years

https://www.al.com/news/2019/11/family-of-man-fatally-shot-in-alabama-lsu-fight-wants-to-forgive-suspect.html

It's a nice touch that the shooter started punching himself in the face afterward to try and claim self-defense.

Last year it was this:

The ending to TCU @ OU sucked (due to refball), but that's fine. I expected to lose by 31 rather than 4.

I really have never paid much attention to TCU football, even when I went there (as they were on probation and bad most of my time there) but they really seem to have a huge void at QB.  I can take losing to OU or Baylor, losing to SMU is always inexcusable.

SMU is like actually pretty good this year though in their defense.

Doesn't matter, it's never acceptable even now that they're in different conferences. The best thing about going to TCU while the football team was bad and on probation was that SMU actually got the freakin' death penalty.

The way Ole Miss lost the Egg Bowl will be a thing of song and legend.

Sprouts continues his amazing streak in the bowl games and is now 15-0!  One person (dfw) has missed 3, while everyone else has missed at least 5.

I've had a sinking feeling this whole time that Wyoming is a Homer pick and though they should win, they won't bring the enthusiasm against such a pitiable opponent. Though perhaps Navy is a better candidate for a letdown. I think the streak finally ends today.

You were even right about when the streak would end!  (OK maybe wrong about which games would end it).  Still, your wasting your life with that day job, get yourself some ridiculously oversized glasses and open a sports book.

Were Trump and Melania known to be attending the game?  They're on the field for the colors presentation and anthem.

Yeah, we were given warning to hide the good silver.

I have a brother-in-law who graduated from Clemson and then got his MBA from LSU.  I wanted to find him a black & white T-shirt that said Go Tigers! to give to him.  In reality, he gives zero inks about who might win.
