We could be here every Sunday complaining about how bad certain elements of the team looked yet just keep on winning without dominating. Bama 9-6, OM 10-7. Not fun but I'll take it.

Everybody here would take that. But it will undoubtedly mean that great improvements were made along the way.

We all agree that would be great.

We are also realistic enough to not expect it.

I'm not sure I would qualify any of the wins as "ugly" at this point. Tenn in '10 was ugly, Troy was ugly. Aubie in '12 was ugly

I think you can win ugly against much weaker opponents. However winning against a team like bama is beautiful no matter how it's accomplished.

There is no ugly win vs Bama Florida Ole Miss A&M or even Arkansas. The reason people are freaking out about yesterday is if they play like that (drop balls, poor special teams, blown coverages, penalties) against those teams they will not win those games. They have the talent to win a championship. Just got to clean it up.

The better question is: how likely is it that LSU can go undefeated with a passing attack that averages 80 yards a game?

That's how Ohio State won it all last year. I'll take it.

they threw for over 2400 yards that year (and are the only team in the BCS era to win a title throwing sub-2500)

we're on pace for 1337 (over 14 games). over 1,000 yards fewer or about 55% of their passing totals

*ETA: they also had an INSANE defense. they set records the following year for players drafted, too. just an fyi

Somehow a 2 loss Bama will make the playoffs over a 1 loss Big12 team and Bama wins in a rematch.

You don't beat Bama ugly. You take that any way you can.

Exactly, at some point not even LF can win a game for us by himself...
