5 things I took away from spending 30 minutes with Gary Danielson

So...to be clear. Gary Danielson is a color commentator. He's not "news media". So, his job is to be opinionated. True news media are supposed to be reporting on facts. To give his perspective on what he is seeing on the field is his job. To add his own personal flavor is his job. He is naturally going to be more familiar with the top teams in the conference because he sees them more. He is around them more. Because they are chosen by CBS for that slot more. So it should be expected that he know more about Bama players and gushes more about Georgia or LSU because he sees them more. It's not a knock against Miss State or Kentucky or Missori. He gets things wrong sometimes...but overall I like him and I think he's done a very good job. I will miss the CBS coverage.

Why LSU’s model of success is the exception, not the new rule

C'mon man. The model can certainly continue to win championships. Maybe not "Best Team Ever" type of thing. But championships nonetheless. Three consecutive LSU coaches have proven what LSU can be on any given year. Nick Saban did it. The Village Idiot did it. And now the a Cajun from down the bayou. The model is simple. So much talent in the state. Keep it in the state and don't f*** it up. Give the keys to the Lamborghini and even the Village Idiot backs into a championship.

Tell the Truth Monday: No. 1 LSU still has lots of work to do

"That’s a string of defenses unlike anything the Tigers’ offensive line has faced, though they did face Florida, Auburn and Alabama in a 4-game stretch." So you think those defenses, especially considering the schedules they have played, are not in the same league at Ohio St., Clemson and Utah? I would argue that all three are better than Utah all things considered and again, factoring in the schedule of horrible offensive rankings for the teams Ohio State and Clemson have played I would say it's tit for tat. LSU has seen the likes of what it will see in the CFP.

The Dynasty-Enders: Do Joe Burrow and Ed Orgeron have what it takes to upend Alabama?

It's definitely not a dynasty ending game. Red zone defense will be the difference. I will go homer and pick my Tigers 42-30. Could easily flip the other way.
