I think Ian Book starts the second half.

That was truly a putrid display of football by both offenses.

But hey, we got the lead which is nice.

Better question, is who will start vs Michigan? This off season is going to be interesting.

Miss the old days when Matt had his own locked thread on the gameday board and the *****in & moanin threads could be avoided

I just want 10 wins. I have given up on style points.

Yeah...that is a good one! I do hope it's BW...think he has a ton of upside!

Why wasn't more time taken before the timeout? Why risk the kickoff?

I'm giving myself a headache thinking about another QB controversy this spring...

I actually think Book gives us the better chance to win this game. Wimbush is in some kind of a tailspin which isn't going to change in the second half.

If we win with nothing but Yoon FGs, Matt is going to be insufferable all offseason.

Light a fire under BW's ass. If you can't handle the pressure of a QB competition after a poor showing passing-wise this season, you probably just don't have it.

I want winners, even if they're not perfect talents. We have enough to work with to win with just average to good QB play.

Aside from Love and Tranquill the entire team looks lethargic.... and I still don't understand why they are not getting Dexter involved in the game.

After that shot of the rose Bowl I am confirmed that venue is flat out the best venue for football hands down.

As frustrating as the game is. LSU is a pretty good team.

They beat Auburn and out gained them 363 to 354.

Bama won, but LSU out gained them 306 to 299.

They're missing some LB's, but backups are talented and we're missing some key players on offense as well.

Agee, I think Kelly needs to tell BW the second half is on him, win or lose. As a coach you need to know if he can do it or not. One last chance.

I used to be with you. But then I watched a game a couple weeks ago where the kicking team made the kick but got penalized for an illegal formation. Because it was an offensive penalty, they didn't get an untimed down so the half ended. They didn't get to retry the fg.

Coney has been great too

ND'S defense is playing very well.

Book looked pretty ragged and unsure as well, but it's likely these 2d team receivers are not getting open. Maybe we should just run for 2 downs then do qb draws instead of passing. I will say book looks capable of hitting a back 3 yards away, which is an improvement.

Tillery too playing well

I hope you're wrong. I think you're right.

I went to the Rose Bowl for a UCLA game a few years ago. It's in a nice area and has great history, but the atmosphere was placid. No passion for the game itself from the UCLA fans.

Wow, that halftime show is lame.

Don't forget, behind every successful kicker there's a good long snapper.

It will be rocking today, both fan bases will be fired up.
