It is constant. We whine about everything. Can we ever be happy? Its done, so there is not point in complaining. We ought to be talking about the season, how LSU can improve over the bowl practices, who is coming back, Clemson and how we match up, etc.

I guess we will get to that eventually after we get all of this griping out of our systems. But, honestly, who cares what bowl we go to? They are all meaningless. I care WAY more about matchups than about which bowl game we are in. As long as it is a good game against a quality opponent and it is on TV, I could care less what bowl game it is.

Are we talking about prestige? Who cares? Who sets that? ESPN? They are clueless anyway.

If LSU destroys Clemson the way they are capable of, everything else will take care of itself. Then, we pull a top 5 recruiting class, return 36 of 44 on the 2-deep, and roll into next season with a top 3 ranking and a primetime game against TCU in Dallas.

It's all good. Enjoy life. We are fine.

Oh people are talking about the season alright....about how we sucked in half of the games...didn't win with style points most of the time, how we need a new OC. I refuse to let these people suck the joy out of a season of LSU football for me.

Isn't this the norm for LSU fans? I wouldn't expect any less.

What we are witnessing is the College Football Fan getting gouged more and more and getting terrible seats. The Stub Hubs of the world are getting all the best tickets. And our conference keeps hosing us with our schedule. Enough is enough!!!

I am. The only thing I don't like is the Gumps getting to the BCS game again. I hate those bastards!

CFA Bowl is pretty good. Honestly, the Capital One sucks arse, other than getting to see Mickey Mouse with the fam.

To me, the best non-BCS bowls for LSU (as a fan) are Cotton (now that they have Jerry World and it isn't at 10am) and CFA.

Quit putting everyone else down that doesn't agree with you just so you can pat yourself on the back and call yourself "A#1 LSU fan". All fanbases have people that bitch...all fanbases have fans that are assholes. The state of Louisiana doesn't have a monopoly on douche fans.

I'm a generally positive guy, but we are getting raped by the SEC here, and it's been the routine for the past 20 years. I'm sick of it. Whenever LSU is in a "tie", we routinely get sent to the worst bowl possible.

I like your post. Every morning I check to see what is going on here on the Rant and for the last few weeks it has been painful.
A minority of fans has turned this finest of college sites into a whine fest. I can't stand a lot of Bama fans, and can't root for Bama, but some of them have it right about part of our fanbase. They can't be satisfied and are always so easy to poke fun at. Get a life people. We are living in a Golden Era of Tiger football and is the current coaching staff's record doesn't impress you, I'm afraid no one will make you happy. So go Tigers! I will be watching a good bowl game on NYE and pulling for the best team in the land, the LSU Fightin' Tigers!

Truth.

Unless were talking about BCS bowls who cares?

Outback, Cap 1, Chik-Fil-A, Cotton? What's the difference?

To me, the opponent matters much more than the name of the bowl. If #5 were to play #8 in the Independence Bowl, would you really care that its the Independence Bowl?

You forgot the part in your story where we roll into Tuscaloosa next season exhausted while Bama 1st stringers have been sitting on the bench for a month and we get manhandled.

It's all fan bases. People just like to complain.

It's sad that two loud mouth extreme fringes take over each fanbases.

One are the chronic complainers, you're team can be going undefeated and winning every game 63-0 and they'd still say everything sucks and everyone should be fired.

The other are the sunshine pumpers, the simpletons who think saying anything negative ever, no matter how constructive the criticism, is being disloyal or not being a good fans. You have 9 losing seasons in a row getting blown out every game and they still support the coach and the system, etc.

The vast majority of fans are sane, but the people you notice are the loud mouths and they tend to be the most idiotic.
