"why do people bitch about these games?"
I am very pleased with the Tigers' season, and I really don't give a rip about which "place" bowl we get because there is a lot of fluff in how bowl teams are selected. However, it is perfectly easy to see why LSU fans are unhappy about how the team played against Ole Miss, Arky, and Auburn. Because, to varying degrees, the team played poorly! You don't have to be a "nega-Tiger" to see that or to hope the team can play more consistently or finish games better.
As has been discussed on here before, this season is a lot like the 2006 season. As in 2006, the team went 2-2 in the four marquee games on the schedule and with just a little better play or luck in one game, could have been playing for it all. One difference, though, is that the 2006 team seldom let down (maybe once?) against an inferior opponent. This team did it regularly but still prevailed.

I would agree, but as I said, we don't normally win these games and we did. Name me one team outside of Bama that has dominated opponents the last two years? None. Ohio State should have lost a few, ND should have lost a few, Oregon, K State, Oklahoma, etc.
