There's just something not right about a college football game on a Friday. College football should be played on Saturday (preferably Saturday night) in Tiger Stadium. But my beloved LSU Tigers have gotten into the habit lately of playing a Friday afternoon game following Thanksgiving. So, I've got to watch it, even though it's just wrong!
There are a couple of bad things about today's game. First of all, we play Arkansas. Did y'all know there was a college in Arkansas? Arkansas stinks like my 12-year-old's gym socks. And they're stupid. Any college that picks a pig for their mascot is just stupid. And their cheerleaders are the ugliest skaggs in college football. And half the coaches are married to close kin. And they don't have any teeth. And they don't even play the game in Fayetteville where their stupid college is...they get on a bus and drive to Little Rock. It's a big deal to those stupid Arkies I guess to get to go "all the way down to the State Capitol" to get the snot beat out of 'em by LSU.
The second bad thing about this game is that they might beat us. In the last two weeks we've stunk like my 12-year-old's underwear. I'll let y'all know what happens.
Man, college football has really changed. Remember the good old days when there were 4 or 5 bowl games, and only the really good teams played at New Years? If we win today, there is a good chance that we'll go to The Cotton Bowl! Can you believe that...the stinkin' Cotton Bowl with a 8-4 record? Even if we lose, we'll probably go to something called "The Outback Bowl." I guess that's a good name for a bowl that features 7-5 teams...the further outback the better.
And now they play on Thursday nights, and Friday afternoons...ignorant!
I'm hoping LSU gets invited to the Independence Bowl. That would be about fitting for a team with a season like we've had this year. Plus, it's played about 9 miles from my house. And the tickets are cheap. And sometimes admission is free if you know the right guy at the stadium.

Dude, if you don't like Friday baw, you couldn't be a fan of the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles. Last year they played on every single day of the week, including TUESDAY! This year all their games were on Saturday though.
ReplyDeleteI am guessing from this post, that you care not one whit for Arkansas. I am guessing that your loathing increased after this past Saturday, too.
