Jayden Daniels Wins Walter Camp and Davey O’Brien Awards

Jayden Daniels Wins Walter Camp and Davey O’Brien Awards

Photo by Rich Graessle/Icon Sportswire via Two more awards added to JD5’s haul On the eve of the Heisman Trophy ceremony, LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels picked up two more pieces of hardware to add to his 2023 awards. After a quick stop in Baltimore to pick up his Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, Daniels made it to New York to partake in the College Football Awards Show and walked away with both the Davey O’Brien and the Walter Camp awards. For reasons that remain unclear to me, Daniels was named a Walter Camp second-team All-American despite winning the Walter Camp...

Link Gumbo: Call a carpenter, we need more shelves for these awards

Our chance at the Heisman House! | Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports Won a few. Still in the Hunt for others Fist question, has there ever been an explanation as to why Joe Burrow is not in the Heisman House commercials? Does he own some car dealership that isn’t Nissan? Do they film them over one day and did it happen to be Super Bowl Sunday when he was busy taking on the Rams? The closer we get to Saturday night, the more nervous I am getting. It’s a good feeling, I have moved past any bad feelings on the season. We provided a top end talent with top end receivers,...

Merry Flipmas: Gabe Reliford Commits to LSU

Merry Flipmas: Gabe Reliford Commits to LSU

Tigers flip a top Louisiana prospect at a position of need Now that the calendar has flipped to December and bowl games are still a few weeks out, the college football focus is shifting toward recruiting. The early signing period begins December 20 and LSU took a big step toward bolstering its 2024 class with the addition of defensive lineman Gabriel Reliford out of Evangel Christian Academy. Reliford was previously committed to Texas A&M but backed off after Jimbo Fisher was fired and defensive line coach Elijah Robinson accepted the defensive coordinator job at Syracuse. LSU...

2024 SEC Gymnastics Preseason Power Rankings Part 2

2024 SEC Gymnastics Preseason Power Rankings Part 2

Teams that make me go ooooh Yesterday, I went over the teams that I felt were in the bottom half of the SEC coming into the 2024 season. The upcoming season looks like it’s going to have an uneven split between the top and bottom half. The bottom four teams will be looking to get to regional finals and hope to catch a couple teams on bad days to snatch a ticket to nationals. The top half of the league is a different story. These four teams are all nationals contenders. I wouldn’t be that surprised if all four made it to Fort Worth considering the level of talent on offer...

Matthew Dobbins-USA TODAY Sports Another award for JD5 According to my SOURCES I can now report the following: Jayden Daniels had a great 2023 football season. So much so in fact that Daniels was named the SEC’s offensive player of the year as voted on by the league’s coaches. This isn’t the first honor Daniels has claimed and likely won’t be the last. Daniels is on his way to Baltimore right now to claim the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm award and will then head to New York this weekend for the Heisman. Daniels is also up for the Davey O’Brien, Walter Camp, and...

2024 SEC Gymnastics Preseason Power Rankings Part 1

The teams that make me go hmmm December has arrived, and that means we’re a month out from the start of the 2024 NCAA gymnastics season. 2023 was a wild ride to say the least. LSU climbed their way past a mountain of injuries and setbacks to reach their second Four on the Floor and ninth national final in program history. Kentucky made their second appearance at nationals ever, Alabama missed for the third time ever and Florida finished as national runners-up by over 0.1000 despite putting up the highest score by a second place team in NCAA history. Missouri failed to reach...

Link Gumbo: Find a TV on Saturday Night

Looks about right | Photo by Jonathan Bachman/ I like that Kid’s odds It’s officially official. There are four invites. And That Kid is one of them. Saturday the 9th at 7pm CST. I am glad to see Milroe staying home. If he was involved, it meant he pulled votes from the south. My only explanation for Harrison is a legacy invitation as well as being the only candidate the Mid West galvanized around. Remember, this is pod voting, top three tabulations with regions being split out, then rolled up. It is not the Electoral system, but region bias is massive in this thing....

LSU Ranked 13th in Final CFP Poll

Stephen Lew-USA TODAY Sports The final four is Michigan vs. Bama and Washington vs. Texas LSU stayed at No. 13 in the final College Football Playoff poll, now we await to see which bowl game LSU gets invited to. Seeing as LSU didn’t play this weekend there was no drama as to whether or not they would move up in the poll. The only thing anybody cared about was what would the final four be and this is how it shakes out after championship Saturday: No. 1 Michigan will take on No. 4 Alabama in the Rose Bowl (4:00 P.M., New Year’s Day, ESPN) No. 2 Washington plays No. 3...

Petre Thomas-USA TODAY Sports The portal officially opens Monday With the regular season at an end, the next phase of the college football calendar begins Monday: the opening of the transfer portal and two Tigers have announced their intentions to enter it. Redshirt sophomore running back Armoni Goodwin was the first LSU player to declare he was entering the transfer portal; sophomore corner Laterrance Welch followed suit a few days later. Goodwin was a top-10 running back coming out of high school and a player that I thought had some serious potential, but injuries...
