Cry me a river, cry me a river. I cried a river over you....


GoldRing: "Flash dance is more suited for late night television shows and not college football. Jessica Simpson keep flashing her double D breast every chance she gets, taking a picture. That's what keep selling her image to the American public. Because there is a lot of money to be made selling big breast in show business
Les Miles has turned Louisiana State University into a sleaze bourbon street strip joint, with Les Miles as the door barker, quickly opening and shutting the front door. Giving the side walk public walking outside, a quick view of the naked girls flash dancing going on inside. Les Miles can't coach college football. He is simply a con man getting richer and richer on false pretenses. Something must be done about this terrible turn of faith at Louisiana State University. Someone please save the LSU fight tiger football program before we all start getting very embarrassed?"

Boyd, Hopkins will Clemson to landmark win

January, 1, 2013

By Edward Aschoff | ESPN.com
ATLANTA – When Tajh Boyd looked up at the scoreboard inside the Georgia Dome and saw only 1 minute, 39 seconds remaining in the final football game of 2012 all he could do was smile.

He didn’t look at LSU's 24-22 lead or the chance for yet another ACC team to fall at the hands of the mighty SEC. All the junior quarterback saw was a chance at something special -- and three timeouts on Clemson’s side.

“Last drive, ball is in your court. It’s your game to lose,” Boyd later said.

With 80 yards to go and the first bowl win for the Tigers since 2009 on the line, Boyd calmly turned to his coaches and said, “Let’s go get it.”

And against one of the toughest defenses in the nation, Boyd went and got it. It started off a little rocky, but for the quarterback who had been thrown around like a rag doll all night, he wasn’t leaving Atlanta without dramatics.

After two incompletions and a Sam Montgomery sack made it fourth-and-16 from his own 14, Boyd made the throw of his life when he hit DeAndre "Nuk" Hopkins over the middle for a 26-yard gain.

Boyd hit Hopkins, who finished the night with a game-high in catches (13) and receiving yards (191) and caught two touchdown passes, two more times for 20 yards before Adam Humphries set up kicker Chandler Catanzaro’s game-winning, 37-yard kick to give Clemson the 25-24 win.

Daniel Shirey/USA TODAY SportsTajh Boyd completed 36 of 50 passes for 346 yards and two touchdowns in Clemson's win.
“I wanted to go into the stands and celebrate already because I knew [Catanzaro] was going to kick it through those uprights,” he said.

The image of Catanzaro celebrating well before the kick went through will live on forever, but the night Boyd and Hopkins had together will go down as one of the all-time greats.

Both entered the game with gaudy numbers. Boyd had more than 3,500 yards on the season and 34 touchdowns, while Hopkins led the ACC with 1,214 receiving yards and 16 touchdowns. But both left with hero status, as they willed their team to a win.

Boyd was smacked around on just about every play, while Hopkins had to work 98 percent of the night without his dynamic partner Sammy Watkins, who left the game on the second play from scrimmage with an ankle injury.

Talk about a straight shot of adversity with no chaser. Read more...http://espn.go.com/blog/sec/post/_/id/58471/boyd-hopkins-will-clemson-to-landmark-win

Bcs caliber game smh. Should've been this instead of the orange bowl, but i give props to Boyd and the Clemson tigers


Coaching really matters, Clemson had that advantage over this LSU tiger in this football game all night long. Until the LSU football program finally fixes the offensive of the LSU fighting tigers football team. No matter how good the LSU football players are. The LSU college football program will remain heart break hotel for the LSU tiger football fans for years to come. Because frankly, that lack of offensive problem unable to make first downs if their life depended on it. In the LSU college football program is getting very old. I'm starting to feel like Rhett Butler at the end of Gone With The Wind. Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn?"

Something got to be done about that LSU football program problem. Because LSU is a very big time University, and deserves much better.less

I was confused on what they were doing, I swore that with the LSU running game, they would just run the ball all night, control the clock and keep the Clemson offense off the field, man did we all get surprised

I think les's alter ego! Ka the hat has taken over his coaching abilities

Les Miles can't coach: The 2012 Chick-Fil-A peach Bowl was an exciting fun football game, of thrills, and spills. What more could a college football fan really want to see? Hail to the victor!
The South Carolina Clemson Tigers - Clemson 25, LSU 24 final score. Clemson won the 2012 Chick-Fil-A Bowl game on the excellent QB play of Tajh Boyd who rallied Clemson in the second half in time for a dramatic last 2 second 37 yard FG victory over LSU.

Hes havin fun win lose or draw

LSU made Brent Venables look like a genius.

Les just got paid he dont see that $@%!

Les Miles is not LSU, LSU is much better then that
Les Miles is not so noble a con man, rather just a guy who struck it rich hustling up a head coaching job at Louisiana State University. Because instead of helping the LSU fighting tigers football teams dreams to come true. He himself is the reason they keep getting their hearts broken. Losing to the stronger college football teams on the LSU football schedule, year after year.

In SEC pecking order, where is LSU now? 6th??
1. Tide
2. UF
3. UGA
4. TAMU
5. USC
6. LSU

I mean, they did beat A&M and SC head to head...
1

no i would put Vandy in front of LSU now because at least Vandy can beat an ACC school.
Ouch!

Seriously, I still think Vandy is a trendy pick--they aren't LSU yet and I don't think it's that close. Their games with UF and UGA were very, very lopsided

Congrads Clemson what a great game!

alos Mettenberger blows big time

What? You miss Jordan Jefferson?

PALMER: Loss caps difficult 2012
Written by Hunt Palmer, Senior Writer

ATLANTA—It was never easy.
Not in 2012, at least.

It was a year that began with a merciless beating on the carpet of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, and Monday night it ended with a knife to the gut under the roof of the Georgia Dome.

And while the wound that was gouged open 12 months ago may never totally heal in Baton Rouge, it was ripped wide open again as Chandler Catanzaro’s 37-yard field goal soared through the pipes to propel Clemson to the Chick-fil-A Bowl victory podium.
The wound will be left to bleed for nine months until the Tigers take the field again. For the second consecutive season, the offense mustered its weakest effort of the season in its final performance. It was billed as an offense that would thrust LSU toward another national championship run. It just never came together
It was never easy.

In 2011, LSU scorched Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl and proceeded sustain the momentum right through the greatest regular season in school history.
Mighty Oregon was no match for LSU. Neither were trips to Mississippi State and West Virginia.
Traditional SEC powers Floirda, Auburn and Tennessee were victims of three straight maulings by a combined score of 124-28.

No. 3 Arkansas. 41-17.
No. 13 Georgia. 42-10.
Easy.
But not in 2012. And not just on the field.
Heisman Trophy finalist Tyrann Mathieu was booted from the team. Veterans D.J. Welter, Tahj Jones, Tyler Edwards and Evan Washington failed to qualify academically and missed the regular season.
It was never easy.

On the field, the Tigers struggled to put teams away week after week.
The worst Auburn team in a century pushed LSU to the brink in Week 4 and had the ball with a chance to win the game. A week later, Towson pulled within 15 midway through the fourth quarter.
Even in what may have been LSU’s best performance, the South Carolina win, the Tigers managed to make it tough. Early in the fourth quarter LSU marched inside the South Carolina 10 yard line twice before settling for field goals. Finally Jeremy Hill busted a 50 yard touchdown to swell the lead to 11, but South Carolina cruised down the field for an easy touchdown and attempted an onside kick with 1:41 to play.
Same story the following week in College Station.

After Hill’s 47 yard gallop gave LSU a 12 point lead, Johnny Football and the Aggies roared back for a quick score and had a shot at an onside kick to get the ball back and win the game.
Mississippi State threatened to do the same before Craig Loston picked Tyler Russell off and covered all of the green Tiger Stadium had to offer to put that game away.
Ole Miss took a lead into the fourth quarter before Odell Beckham went all Billy Cannon and dashed the Rebels’ dreams.
Surely lowly Arkansas wouldn’t pose a threat. Ha! Tyler Wilson had one play from the 18 yard line to win that one.
It was never easy.

“It was a different team,” said junior linebacker Kevin Minter. “Throughout the whole season we tried to get a feel for who we were.”
Brad Wing’s suspension added more dysfunction to a team whose cup was already runneth over in that department.

It figured LSU’s last go at it in 2012 wouldn’t be a gimmie. Clemson’s offense entered the game ranked sixth in the country in scoring, and that offense torched the Tiger defense in the first half for 248 yards on 54 plays. Still, LSU clung to a one-point lead thanks to an early turnover and a blocked extra point.

The game dripped of the earlier contests with Texas A&M, Ole Miss and Mississippi State. Eventually, LSU would take charge once the defense caught up.
The similarities bordered on eerie when Hill busted free for a 57 yard touchdown to put the Tigers on top by eight just 17 seconds into the second half.
Easy, right? Not a chance.
LSU squandered a gift turnover at the Clemson 29 yard line, settling for a 20 yard chip shot from Drew Alleman.

Clemson would draw within eight at the 9:26 mark when Catanzaro split the uprights.
LSU would have a chance, make that two, to ice the game on offense.
The first three and out resulted in a punt and a Clemson 77 yard touchdown drive. When the two-point conversion failed, LSU took over with 2:43 to play and a razor thin lead.
After an eight-yard completion, Mettenberger to Boone, LSU had second and two.
Easy, right? Not a chance.

LSU went to the air twice. Mettenberger missed an open Jarvis Landry for what would have been a first down, and then Clemson end Malliciah Goodman swatted the third down attempt to the turf, stopping the clock again and allowing Clemson to preserve all three timeouts.
