    Interesting stats:

    With almost exactly the same number of cast votes in each state, Georgia carries 34% of their homestate vote; florida 52%, LSU 93%. Tennessee is at 64% though with just less than half the number of votes cast.

    Both South Carolina and Alabama show "Other" in the lead for their respective homestates, with a respectable 24% in South Carolina and a comical 63% in Alabama. Of course there are two "others" in Alabama but it would be interesting to see how those votes actually break down.

    are you referring to something mentioned in the poll or actually just asking about "baby potatoes"???? Sorry I have to ask but I couldn't find a reference related to the poll.

    the most obvious (and sad) explanation for this is that Louisiana has no one moving there from other states

    Suffice to say this isn't Nick Saban's LSU, and from the feel of things on campus at the end of spring practices, that's probably a good thing. Now all Miles has to do is win like Saban and the Louisiana masses will love him.

    Let him lose and the personality upgrade won't mean a thing. They'll bring up Saban and look for ways to boil Miles with the crawfish, corn and baby potatoes.



    they're small potatoes.

    This is what he is referring too.


    They're the little potatoes that you throw in with the crawfish and little corn on the cobs. You've been missing out.
