Its a very sad state of affairs.

I said on 11/26/16, the fans hold a very good portion of the responsibility for O being hired

Your argument is moot.

this time next week after auburn wins something like 31-3 it will be well it was Joes first real road start of his career. we didn't want him to get hurt so we just had to go 3 n out every time and max protect and run 1 man routes.

we can still win the west, blah blah blah

then la tech comes in and they are a actual threat in the 4th. we win or maybe we troy it. Then it is well they aren't sec and it doesn't hurt the goal of winning the west and typical trap game.

Then UGA rolls in and threatens the 58-3 beat down UF gave us one year and it will be the well UGA is the nc and no one will give them a game.

then we see more dog shite and excuses and even some retards that despite 6-6 at best saying give E another year to implement his O.

it is disgusting and sad. the worst part might be our big boosters are starting to rot to this level of excuse and it being ok.

You can still love the Tigers and not accept the sad state of affairs the program is in. This season seems to be the first time that fans are actually attempting to speak with their wallets. Season ticket renewals are down and attendance will continue to suffer. Eventually, it will take a toll on recruiting. Only then will Alleva (if he's still around) do something.

Accepting mediocrity and loving the Tigers aren't mutually inclusive.

no some of us did suffered through curly and we realize we don't want to go back to that.

Also I don't seem to ever remember Curly only having 3 yards passing in a half.

That’s the only rational explanation for the excuses being spouted here.

LSU offense looks like it has regressed. Stats will reflect this as the season progresses. And the excuses will still happen...

Orgeron was not hired to “rebuild” as much as many of his apologists want to change the narrative to that. Miles was held to “9-3 is the floor” type of expectations.

Now, 8-4 is considered a good season.

The battle here is the rational fans who understand what’s unfolding quickly vs those that just refuse to accept that major mistakes have been made.

8-4 is the ceiling, IMO.

Those lashing out at people here for being concerned about a 31-0 win are looking from a very shortsighted and narrow lens


Not only have they accepted it, they are incredulous that the rest of us haven’t.


But this is what you get when an incompetent AD hires a failed and incompetent HC who fired a competent OC only to replace him with a failed and incompetent one.

What does repeating the same posts at nauseam do to change the team's offense?

Your armchair bitching quarterbacking is what’s moot.

Damn.
It’s like none of y’all suffered through Curly Hallman.

You don’t even fricking know what bad is.



No, most here did suffer through those years, so we do know what it looks like.

Bad is the #112 offense. Especially when you swore up and down you were going to fix it.
I’ll all about seeing what happens, but it’s not wrong to say, man, things don’t look too promising.

Stupid.

Miles was never gonna try anything different. I have serious doubts about O. That said, we already have way more diversity than Miles ever showed throughout his multiple OCs.

2-9 is bad.

2-0 being bad is TBD.

Diversity with worse production is pointless.

Orgeron has disastrous offenses at Ole Miss that resembled this team’s offense.

Nothing.

But if they changed the offense like they promised the repeat threads wouldn't continue.
As long as the offense looks like shite, people are going to be critical.
At this point we would think you would be on board with that

I have a theory that the big pumpers that are screaming that we aren't bad are the type of LSU fan that only gets to go to the SLU games of the world. They don't have the season tickets for the most part, they haven't been to ten plus straight years of every home game.

its the Walmart Denham springs type that only goes out and tailgates.

If you love your team you will support it by helping recruit for it, here tearing LSU down and calling it love seems to be in vogue !

This is a flat out lie.

We are way more co derivative low than we were under Les.

In Les’ worst moments of his career, we could manage more than 3 passing yards in a half. And we did that against teams like Bama.
