Hear the unrealistic fans thing thrown out a lot. What are realistic expectations for the modern LSU program? The athletic admins have gone in record as saying it is not about winning championships but about being in the hunt for them. Is this the realistic expectation?? As long as we are not mathematically eliminated from Atlanta by November does that meet the goal?? We were in the hunt? Just curious if that stated goal is what everyone on here accepts.

Sure sounds like it to me. Content with just being mathematically alive by the end of October and everything is great.

8 wins, and a chick fil a bowl appearance every year. But we should be thankful because we were awful 15 years ago. God bless les miles.

I think moving forward, a very realistic expectation each year would be to finish between 3-4 in the west with a middle tier bowl game.

It seems like that would satisfy most fans.

To win the SEC every 3-5 years.

First you have to be in the hunt to win championships so the hand wringing about that statement was ludicrous

But at this point this team isn't going to contend for championships.

Being in the hunt means controlling your own destiny. Which this team blew.

So this season in that respect is disappointing. Now could some magical fairy spread dust and this team somehow gets to Atlanta? Yes but in reality it's not happening.

Now that doesn't mean you fire coaches and shite but it means you evaluate and try and improve the program

Which I'm sure the administration will do without any assistance from folks on a message board

Realistic expectations....

To see the team improve as the season goes on. To strive to play to the best of your ability on a consistent basis regardless of opponent.
