As long as we have a winning record and go to a bowl game, I'm fine with it. I don't care WHAT the whining little ladies of the world say about it !

There are MANY other football teams who would LOVE to have winning seasons and go to bowl games year after year.

If you don't like it, go root for Tulane. They need more fans.

Real LSU fans don't complain about any season that is a winning season.

.. . and I mean it.

We, as LSU fans, are not entitled to jack. We should be grateful for winning seasons and bowl games.

Anything after that is just lagniappe.

Really, I'm not trolling. These are immature young people who play. This is not the NFL, so, fans cannot demand NFL-level performances every game.

If you want to be a fan that demands championships every season, pick an NFL team to root for. They are pros and it is reasonable to demand that they play like pros EVERY down. College dudes? Not so much.

Coaching? Same thing. When some NFL owner steals your college coach away from you, you'll know that somebody important thinks highly of your coach.

You do play to win championships (SEC division/conference and National). Les Miles would tell you the same thing if you asked him 1000 times. That's the ultimate goal. Anything besides winning a championship is a secondary goal.

hmmm, winning record when you are the only school playing major college football in the state and you consistently produce the best talent in the country???? Hmmm, winning by gifts from other mediocre teams???? I see what Baton Rouge has the worst schools, roads and politicians. Probably the smallest minds in the free world.

So now we are happy about winning seasons . So if we were 7-5 every year you'd be okay with it?

eta: even 8-4

Your goals are not high and I will not be satisfied with this. But we have to get used to it, as it will not change.

It's a nice consolation prize but god damn it, I wanted that crystal ball more.

If you don't feel it's important to win it all then why be a fan of any sport? The goal of sport is to be number 1. If you don't as a fan desire first place then the university doesn't strive to provide that. Fact is that until Saban leaves, the west division will have to go through Tuscaloosa. Sounds to me you like reading books that you already know the ending to.
