Hate to say it, but LSU


what is considered a slump for a powerhouse program? LSU hasn't won a BCS bowl in the last 6 seasons.

From 2001-2007, LSU played and won BCS games in 4/7 seasons (including 2 titles). Since then they've played in (and lost) a BCS game in 1/6 seasons. For a program that was playing at an Elite level, I'd saying go on a 6 season BCS win dry spell is a bit of a slump.

an ULALA fan wishing and hoping LSU is slumping so that they can become relevant although they never will?

The last 3-4 years, LSU has been playing in the best division in the history of College ball.

I wouldn't classify LSU has being in a slump honestly.

I wasn't going to respond to this, but it's too ignorant not to.

LSUs record since the 07 NC is 61-18 while playing in the toughest conference in America enjoying a level of dominance that is one of if not the greatest in college football history. They've put more players in the NFL than any school in the country and are continuing to recruit at an ridiculously high level. Les Miles has failed to win 10 games twice in his nine year and counting tenure. But because they haven't played in BCS games while in a conference where everyone is succeeding on a high level, theyre in a slump?

Go enjoy your NO Bowls and trying to convince the country to call your team by the wrong name. Call me when something relevant to major college football happens in Lafayette.

You're cherry picking to make a point. In 3 of those seasons, LSU suffered a combined 7 SEC losses. They got insanely lucky to be in 2 of the BCS games. LSU's average record has not changed but with 5 top 10 teams in your own division, it requires quite a bit of luck to make a BCS game today.
