Moments Later, Nick Saban Turned Green And Tore A Referee's Torso In Half
In what is turning out to be the most boring Biggest Game Evar, Alabama is tied 3-3 with LSU at the half in a game filled with hard hits and big mistakes—including three missed Crimson Tide field goals. That's not what has Nick Saban enraged (blame a missed penalty call for that) but you can see hi...
LSU Tramples Own Mascot Before Taking On Alabama
Pssst. Mike the Tiger. Look out! Poor Mike the Tiger, not that mascots are particularly deserving of respect—especially when the same school has a live, actual tiger for which you're just an avatar— but that's a rough start for somebody heading into the BIGGEST GAME EVAR....
Patriotic GameDay Protesters Unfurl FIRE CRAIG JAMES Banner
Math scholars will debate for centuries whether it is possible Craig James > Tebow....
The Beard Is Too Mighty For Facemasks
That's San Francisco Giants closer and Taco Bell spokespimp Brian Wilson in full LSU regalia as College GameDay's guest game-picker this morning. Lee Corso got into the beard act as well. It goes without saying his appearance in such costuming did not go over well with the crowd outside Bryant-Denny...

Not only that, but Bear Bryant's sporting an LSU Alumni sticker (h/t to ParadigmShift35 for it)....
Trent Richardson Is Every Synthetic Puffer's Nightmare
Signs that attempt to make phrases from ESPN are rarely clever (even when they're awesome) but this one, yet another reminder that LSU enjoys smoking fake weed, breaches the threshold....
Like Many Things In Alabama, Tide Fans Get "X > Tebow" Meme Backward
We've been monitoring Occupy Tebow all week, but the basic and most important element is that the statement features "Greater Than." Leave it up to Bama fans get it wrong....
Cow Costume-Clad Character Continues Clowning Around College GameDay, Also There's Pot & Rape Jokes
Crowds outside Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa have been growing since ESPN set up its College GameDay camp early in preparation of Saturday night's matchup between #1 LSU and #2 Alabama. As the masses surrounding the set have swelled, they've also grown sillier and in some cases stupider. Our C...
This Is Why You Don't Ask A Professional Athlete To Be A School "Reading Champion"
I absolutely cannot think of a better inspiration for getting schoolchildren to read than by choosing a man who got very rich without ever having read a book in his life....
Service Academy Football Rivalries Are Just As Good For Dick Jokes
According to the Cadet Third Class (that's Air Force for 'sophomore'!) who sent this along, a big wank-y banner has been hung in the Air Force Academy's dining hall ahead of tomorrow's big Army game. Is this the type of young men we want waging our wars in the future? Deadspin says: god yes....
Floyd Mayweather Isn't Ducking Manny Pacquaio; He's Being Persecuted, Or Something
Floyd Mayweather Jr. didn't take too kindly to Sirius radio host Rude Jude's accusation that he's afraid to fight Manny Pacquiao. So Mayweather decided to call Jude's show yesterday, at the urging of 50 Cent, and you can listen to the audio above. Mayweather never directly addresses the issue at h...
America Likes LSU Tomorrow; Vegas Doesn't
Alabama is at -4.5 offshore and in most of Vegas, and that hasn't come down much despite the vast majority of bettors backing LSU—75 percent by one estimate. But it's all "$20 and $50 bets." The big money has withheld judgment so far....
Even Criminal Lobbyist Jack Abramoff Lectured Dan Snyder About The Redskins Name, Likening It To "The New York Jew Boys"
Scumbag lobbyist and George Bush leg-humper Jack Abramoff has a self-serving book out called Capital Punishment: The Hard Truth About Washington Corruption From America's Most Notorious Lobbyist. In the book, which you should not buy, Abramoff details his relationship with Dan Snyder, whom Abramoff ...

ESPN's College GameDay Is Starting Early In Tuscaloosa—And So Are The Students
College GameDay has made the rare trip to the location of a non-ESPN television game, though it would be ridiculous for them to be anywhere but Tuscaloosa for Saturday night's match between #1 LSU and #2 Alabama (on CBS). The game's drawn such national attention that the GameDay crew made the trip ...
