LOL. I know you're a troll, but you could have came up with something better than this.

Hey, I'm happy to know we put the one loss brand on Bama's butt in Bryant Denny. Now we are pretty sure JJ and TM7 was smoking dope leading up to the game. If these guys would have been focusing on the game we would have played our best and had a chance to win. Not to mention Bama did not deserve to be in the NC game. I'm excited and optimistic about next year with all the great recruits we have coming in.

There is a difference between excuses and factors.

most of the crap you listed is nothing but a string of strawmen. You can't tie everyone that does not agree with you about Miles to the most inane statements you can dig up.

you are just using that term as a smear on people you don't agree with.

I don't think OU should have been in the 2004 Sugar Bowl vs LSU, is that a moral loss since we won the game?

Nice try. Technically yes. I'm not sure if you noticed but a lot of people thought that because..........there was a split title that year.

Thanks for proving my point.

In other words, you are closed minded and are either unable or afraid to look deeper into things. You take any statement you disagree with as an excuse or moral victory.

Since every post you make is to turn everything around and make it negative towards the lsu program. Can you let us know what exactly the bash is when you are complaining about fans and "moral victories"? Thanks.

I didn't prove anything but that you you only see what you want to see. And that you are incapable of having any kind of debate, so you need just put down people you disagree with.

I don't think Nebraska should have been in the 2002 Rose Bowl v Miami either. Is that a moral victory?

Now you are proving my point. You can't make an argument, so you resort to name calling and smearing. Congrats on your mastery of Saul Alinsky's tactics for debate.

So you are giving the credit for 9-6 to JJ..?
Your hate is so strong you can't give some credit to the QB of the winning team who accounted for nearly 50% of the total O?

In CFB not losing= winning.
You would've left in a QB who completed a third of his passes to the opponent, or replaced JL with a green Mett?

The entire point of my post is that we would have been an even better team with a real QB.
And just where would you have found him?
Your post is pointless.

2011 was obviously the best team we've ever had, unfortunately that other school had arguably their best ever team as well the same year.

2012 was supposed to be our year, but bad off-field decisions and injuries again hurt the team as well as offensive struggles.

With all the underclassmen leaving, did we miss our chance? Its pretty safe to say 2013 begins a rebuilding process.

No. The window is not closed. I do not accept the excuses to lower expectations. While I don't like flipping out because the team went 6-2 in the SEC and won 10 games overall, I also don't want us to say its okay to go 4-4 and win 8 games overall.

The demand is that we compete for titles. This team competed for one, but ultimately fell just short. I think this year was a mild disappointment, but hardly a disaster. But I do not then lower expectations and say the sky is falling like some Chicken Little.

We have a ton of talent returning. The demand is to keep winning.

I would have taken Stevie Wonder over JJ.

You're still failing to understand what I'm saying. I'm not saying that we would have been a better team/won if we had benched JJ for another guy on the roster. I said if we had another QB, we could have been a better team!

OBVIOUSLY we didn't and we got ramrodded in the NCG.. I was simply making an observation and you had to attempt to make some sort of fricking debate out of it.

Absurd would be incessantly hating on the program and coaches while calling yourself a "fan".




recognizing the failures of the head coach, who will be gone long before LSU, and who wasn;t here at the beginning of LSU; isn;t "hating on the program"

Your inability to recognize that fact, or your willful insistence in using that logical fallacy is your problem.
