🏈 LSU Stars leading the pre-game walk down "Victory Hill"

[bradenob]

I wasn't familiar with this tradition, but the stars came out for it.

Leonard Fournette (0-3), Patrick Peterson (2-2). Derrius Guice (0-3), Jalen Mills (0-3), Michael Clayton (2-1), D.J. Chark (0-3), JaMarcus Russell (3-0), Eric Alexander (3-1), Lamar Louis (0-4), Brandon Lafell (2-2), Marlon Favorite (2-1), Kirston Pittman (5-0), Matt Flynn (4-0), Jordan Jefferson (2-3) and Rickey Jefferson (0-4) led the team in hopes of a victory. (Records against 'Bama, total, in parentheses).

All told, the collection of players had seen victories in Baton Rouge, collectively, 13 out of 55 games with Alabama, and 7 of the 15 had NEVER had a win in Baton Rouge - 6 had never beaten 'Bama. Russell, Pittman, and Flynn could remember the good old days (the Mike Shula days).

what the hell could fornette have done, lol? he didn't do much when he WAS playing for them. his coming out game turned into a whole bunch of not much and it turned into Derrick Henry's Heisman game.

I did not realize they had any hills in Louisiana????

 

[footballer]

They run down hill into a cesspool.

You did. They're called a levy.

Oh god...makings of a joke there...and likely not a good one.

You ain't been to Baton Rouge until you hike to the top of the Indian Mounds and try to get a decent look at the Mississippi.

Bowling Green University in Ohio takes their recruits to actually see a hill on recruiting visits. Its man made and sits along interstate 75. Flat as a pancake in that part of Ohio.

Or Drive across that Huey P Long bridge.....man that is a long long way down. I made a wrong turn trying to get into Harahan,La which led me to having to drive on the bridge and then you have to return using the bridge as well. The barges looked like matchbox cars.

This Bud is for you Leonard......

Didn't he have another hit like that in a early game?

Fournette and Dev White can tell their children and grandchildren about the good ole days when their teams at LSU beat The King..........wait
