He could be a legend at Ole Miss and hell get fired in 3 years if he struggles at LSU
this is exactly what i think will happen if he leaves, and it'll set his career back. he'll be back on the market looking for his 27th coaching gig in a matter of years, and where he lands won't mirror his situation at Ole Miss. he has an ideal thing going for him as it stands, and it'll be a huge mistake if he gives it up in hopes for even greener grass.
I just could never trust the guy with as much money as LSU is purportedly willing to throw at him. the guy always seems to be on the move, for myriad reasons.

I think he would have success for a while, but they have no patience for down years and he would end up getting fired. Ed O won a natty with the best offense in CFB history and was fired 2 years later.
It is a better job thats easier to recruit for and has more money, the whole state basically breeds HS football players to go to LSU with an insane amount of purple and gold schools.
I do think its a mistake but he probably will since he still hasnt said anything yet
Well I forget who said to wait for today because there would be some pretty good games gonna be happening but besides the OSU-Michigan game can anybody tell me of another good game today?

There were quite a few. LSU/Oklahoma, Penn State/Rutgers, Oregon/Washington
So now we have
SEC Bama Georgia
AAC who will be the G5 team Tulane and North Texas
B!G Indiana OSU
ACC UVA Duke. Cal did their best to lose the game and SMU just kept saying hold my beer
Big 12 TT and BYU
Hats off to both Georgia and Alabama for fighting their way through the season and into the SEC Championship. Neither team looks overpowering and both came close to losing yesterday, but that's been the story of the SEC all year, everyone seems able to win or lose any game in equal fashion.
Should be some good games next weekend and a potential re-shuffling of the order which will dictate the bracket. The Tuesday rankings will also influence that bracket and I suppose that Georgia will be the new Number 3, but who knows how far Texas A&M will slide down. It all provides us with a fitting end to a season that's been pretty crazy, teams moving up and down in the Top 10. To me there have been 4 teams that have played consistently all season: Ohio State, Indiana, Ole Miss and Notre Dame. They would be my choices for an eventual National Champion. Looking at how things are right now it might be that Indiana has the easiest path into the Championship Game, but anything can happen at this point in the season.

As a pre-cursor to the Tuesday CFP Poll these two polls, by College Coaches and Sportswriters, are in almost complete agreement. The only differences being a flip-flop of Ole Miss/Texas Tech at 5-6 and Vanderbilt/Miami at 12.
I wanted to go to Indianapolis. This is the biggest Big Ten Championship game in history #1 vs #2. But cant see spending $420 a ticket for the cheap seats.
USF coach going to Auburn
Tulane coach going to FL
Arkansas hires the Memphis coach
Oklahoma State hires the North Texas coach
Michigan State fires their coach
AAC title game that will produce the playoff team for the G5 now has both teams with a HC leaving
Kiffin going to LSU . Things are so bad between him and the school Kiffin has apparently told the offensive coaches he was going to take with him that if they dont leave now with him they can look for jobs elsewhere
Ole Miss is working on trying to keep as many as they can but its going to be down a few coaches which might cost them a home playoff game ranking

Iowa wouldn't even make a bowl game in the SEC
Nah, Iowa would probably be 10-2 this year if they played in the sec. I even doubt Alabama could beat them.
Iowa cant even beat Iowa State or SoCal. Theres not a ton of tomato cans like Michigan State, Nebraska, Rutgers, Wisconsin, Minnesota to rack up wins in the SEC
They wouldnt even be bowl eligible. They lost to every team they played that was even slightly good or better than that

If LSU, Missouri, and Tennessee can get bowl eligible in the sec, then I have no doubt Iowa could.

So were back to the pretzel logic?
What happens to a B!G school early in the season doesnt matter unless its a win, but if another conference has a team lose but the win doesnt matter
OSU only beat Texas by 7 at home and Archie was terrible
Mizzou would be the 3rd or 5th best team in the B!G and Tennessee would be right behind them.
Like it or not the B!G this year was two good teams, with Indiana and OSU, 3 above average teams with Oregon, Michigan and SoCal.
Michigan lost to OU
Then there was Iowa who was average at best, Illinois slightly below average, Washington below average than a bunch of tomato cans
Theres not a ton of tomato cans like Michigan State, Nebraska, Rutgers, Wisconsin, Minnesota to rack up wins in the SEC.
Well, let's see: Kentucky, Florida, Auburn, Mississippi State, South Carolina and Arkansas are all in the soup aisle, but the "My Dad can beat up your Dad" argument is really a stupid one to be having. Also, having 5-teams in the 12-team field for the SEC might make you swell with pride but it might also end up biting you in the ass. Not getting someone to the finals isn't a good look when you represent almost half the teams, so beware. The sooner the world of NCAA football gets past the fallacy that the SEC is stocked with powerhouse teams the better off NCAA football will be. The only real way to convince people is with more inter-conference play during the regular season while also working things out in the playoffs.
Best of luck to every team that makes it into the 12-team field, there should be some good games but there also might be some bruised and battered egos when the dust settles.

Auburn vs Alabama would be so. much better if Auburn WR's would catch instead of dropping balls
I genuinely feel bad for Auburns QB, he is taking a beating
That and fumbling have been two of their favorite things on offense this year
