Watching the Houston Nutt show
We're lucky enough to get some good SEC television coverage here in Baton Rouge which includes alot of shows from other SEC teams. Today I got to watch the Houston Nutt show where he discussed the
LSU vs. Arkansas game from this year.
He praises LSU's defensive front, our big recievers and the tunnell screen which LSU has run so good this year. Coach Nutt is a really sharp guy and right on about what LSU's strengths and weaknesses are. He's well spoken and a pleasure to listen to during his comments.
I definitely agree that his team is so talented and showed a ton of heart in never giving up the whole game while they're down. Its games like this one where its a shame that someone has to lose.
Heroes Television Series
I've been watching the Heroes television series every week. Its great and it really keeps you wanting to know whats going to happen. As a Sci-Fi geek I was really happy to see some "modern" show on television as the other running series are just done.
Want to catch up on it? Thanks to the Internet and people geekier than I you can watch shows online.
Find That Show has all the episodes online.

Ultimate Fighter Finale
Watched the finale to Ultimate Fighter 4 "The Comeback" and it was a pretty damn good show. The fights had a good deal of action and the results were good. Actually the fights that weren't the contract fights were the best ones.
Pete Sell getting knocked out by Scott Smith was one of the wildest things I'd ever seen. Both guys were going really hard and then had what amounted to a near knockout and then a freak knockout. Had Smith not landed that punch he was done. Big props for that heart.
Thles Leites and Martin Kampmann put on a pretty good slugfest that ended in decision.
Travis Lutter won an impressively unexpected fight over Patrick Cote. Its like he just let Lutter do what he wanted. Lutter then got to meet Anderson Silva who is suprisingly huge standing next to him. Both were very professional and respectful of one another. I don't think Lutter has a great shot of beating this guy but we'll see.
Serra vs. Lytle was boring. Props to Lytle as he never got in any real trouble with the ever dangerous ground game of Matt Serra. His takedown defense was absolutely great. I agree with the decision as Matt controled most of the action as little as there was.
I love how Matt Serra speaks his mind no matter what. Stating that he felt Matt Hughes was a dick and he'd rather fight him because of it.
There was a pretty good interview segment with Hughes and St. Pierre. I think Hughes has run his course and is boring to everyone out there. The guy has the personality of a punk and I'm looking forward to St. Pierre putting him away.
Good action to get me ready for this weekends UFC 65.
Louisville vs. Rutgers and LSU vs Alabama
Another Thursday night treat of undefeated teams facing off with Rutgers and Louisville. Neither of which have gained any respect from anyone but myself. Why? Because they don't play as many of the big name programs. Louisville I think will solidify their season with a big game against a quality opponent in a bowl. I don't give Rutgers much of a chance against them..
Big weekend for LSU at home against old Alabama. People were already singing "F You Alabama" earlier this week when I met friends for drinks. Les Miles needs to win out this season and finish very strong against Arkansas and a quality bowl opponent in order to avoid an onslaught of "fire coach".
Louisville vs. WVU
Wow what a game. I've got one word for Louisville:
RESPECT - R - E - S - P - K, RESPEK
I haven't seen so much speed on a field in forever. The guys running the camera will have whiplash tomorrow from all this action. Its been fun and its late so I don't see much hope in WVU getting back into it but wow.
I'd love to see these either of these teams vs. LSU in a bowl game. It would be exciting.
