http://www.thenewsstar.com/article/20081214/SPORTS/81213013 BATON ROUGE — Most of the numbers surrounding the 2008 LSU football season tell a sad story.

Gene Chizik: Color Us Unimpressed
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/92742-gene-chizik-color-us-unimpressed As has been noted many times before, the SEC is pretty much a murderer’s row of coaches.

Tramel: Bradford can cement his place in history with a hardware double
Tramel: Bradford can cement his place in history with a hardware double Sam Bradford called it unreal. And kept calling it unreal. I counted three times in his Heisman Trophy acceptance speech Saturday night. Good a word as any for the Slingin’ Sammy Heisman story. Unreal that Bradford almost went to Texas Tech (where he…

Auburn’s new coach sparks wide reaction

Who Did Best Their First Year on the Job?
Who Did Best Their First Year on the Job? It’s a tough job when deciding who did a great job in their first year at a new school. Many times coaches are changing offensive and defensive systems, so the W/L record isn’t always that impressive. Many first year coaches inherit great situations(see Larry Coker’s first…
