I shouldn't have to tell you this but its the only way fans have to voice their displeasure. Would you rather a guy punch you in the mouth because he's pissed at Miles. Fans vent...its what they do. I don't condone booing specific players. I have booed a few times in 40+ years as the entire team ran on/off the field. Did it do any good...of course not! But it sure made me feel a hell of a lot better.

I'd LIKE to think fans can find a happy medium between the two...though I'm sure this thread will prove that wishful thinking on my part.

That being said, the BEST way to voice displeasure with the coach and/or program is to NOT GO TO GAMES. Stop supporting the program financially. That hits home far faster than booing at games AND it doesn't drive me batshit crazy while enjoying the game. It's a win-win!

People are emotional...especially so when it comes to tribal activities like cheering on "your" team. No doubt. But...and again, maybe this is me expecting too much (or the fact that I'm not drunk at games) but I've never lost so much control over myself that I started hollering randomly...which is, after all when booing is when you stop and think about it. It doesn't effect any outcomes other than making the fans look idiotic.

And honestly...that best case scenario. Worst case you've got freshman players having to answer questions about their HOME STADIUM booing the week of the fricking Auburn game.

Wait, so we have to either let idiots boo the team or get punched in the mouth?

Really? These are the choices?

If so, we have even greater fricktard fans than I thought.

If booing a bunch of kids, that have given more to lsu football in just one spring game than you have your entire life, makes you feel better, you need to rearrange your priorities.
