Baron Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 3 minutes ago, WETSU said: Thats a ridiculous statement lol Does LSU want to beat Texas its first year in the SEC? Of course. Does it want to beat Texas more than bama? Hell no. Beating Texas is no more meaningful than beating A&M to LSU at this point. Beating Bama on the other hand, is crucial to getting to the sec title in the current format. Until Texas comes into the sec and wins consistently, they will not be any contenders biggest game. That is and will continue to be bama/georgia. There is absolutely a difference in being someone's biggest game and having a game circled. No it's not ridiculous. It's a matter of perspective. Like I said if you're the target your view of things is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said if you're the target your view of things is different. Just so I'm understanding you.... You think that Texas is the biggest game on everyone's schedule year 1 in the sec? You are implying that every team cares more about beating Texas than beating Bama or Georgia? Is that what you're trying to say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The statement was Texas is everyone's biggest game. I disagree and said there's a difference in a team getting up to play you vs being a teams biggest game. You said there was no difference... I'm glad we agree there is a difference now. But one thing you should probably get use to if you re going to play in the sec is there are LOTS of games with targets. I think you'll find that LSU needs to have many games circled to win a title. So does everyone else. This isn't the big 12 where Texas and OU are the only legitimate "big fish" and everyone storms the field after beating them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said there was no difference. I asked you a direct question and you then admit there is a difference but throw a backhanded comment about me being argumentative simply because I questioned your statement... Thats a tool move. I'm not name calling. I'm saying your actions were toolish. You say I'm being argumentative but wouldn't it just be easier to admit I was right? You literally proved my point for for me that there was a difference. I'm not even sure you understand your own argument at this point let alone have the position to say I'm being argumentative...

You questioned my statement so I guess that makes you a tool as well 2. You seem to be a fairly narcissistic individual. You are right no matter what. 3. We could probably take this to PM's.

Circled games will be games that matter expectedly or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red90fly Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Every time I read something about the newcomers seems like Byron Murphy's name is always the first one mentioned. Not sure how much he'll play this year as Texas is pretty deep at DT, but he looks like Roy Miller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red90fly Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Derek Kerstetter has completely recovered from the ankle injury at the end of last year and has had no set backs or limitations and is back at Right Tackle. Could be huge for the OL as he was really good two years ago at Right Tackle before being moved to Center last year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he quits hitting people late just standing around the pile after a tackle and costing us 15 yard personal foul penalties every third game.
