If we don't make the playoffs next year would it be "underperforming"?

I keep hearing ppl say we're going to be loaded etc etc. Does that mean everybody expects a playoff run? And if not how much hotter does Miles seat get?

No, just competitive in the West at least.

LSU should finish top two in the SEC West. I don't expect to beat Alabama.

I'm of the opinion that the 2015 season is a success if and only if there are:
1) Beat Bama.
2) No more than 2 losses at the end of the season.
3) Win the West and play for the SEC title in Atlanta.

Nothing less than meeting these three criteria are acceptable, IMO.

10 plus wins and compete to win the west should be the yearly expectations IMO.

Honestly, until LSU beats Bama, pretty much any season is going to have a disappointing feel to many fans now that we've lost to them four times in a row including the shutout in the NC and a couple of heart breakers at home. Also, they are basically the team we need to beat to make it back to the SECCG. It's just the way it is. We have to get over that hump.

I expect 10 regular season wins at the minimum. I don't know if that is enough to win the West, but I know that we should be 8-0 going into the game against Bama. Ole Miss and Bama on the road will be hell, but I think we win every other game.

No and not very hot, unless we lose 4 or more again. And then it would be luke warm.

It depends. shite happens. If we get some players back and stay away from suspension and injuries to key players. Then yeah, our defense should be good enough to get us there.

Underperforming next season means being more than one game out of first in the west. If west champ is 7-1, LSU has to be 6-2 in order to not underperform.

Said it in another thread, but
IF LSU does not make the playoffs AND it is because of poor QB play from Jennings, Miles will be coaching for his job in '16.

1. depends on how many draft eligibly players return
2. It is hard to say playoffs of bust. We play in the toughest country int he division. Would you want Les Miles fired if he lost 2 games? or 1 but didn't make the 4 team cut off because there were 4 undefeated teams including the SEC champ?
