No it's not. You want 60-7 games against almost everybody, and wins against everyone we don't blow out. That is the ridiculous expectation


Yeah cause you know me so well right.

This year, the only game you can really say "wow Les, shitty job there" was OM, and even then a large piece of the blame goes to Mett and his 3 derp INTs. UGA was healthy when we played them, and Bama we got out depthed, both being on the road no less.


Also, a winless Arkansas team was leading going into the 4th quarter, that we needed a last minute drive to win, hell even Furman, a team that lost to Elon and Chattanooga, made it a game in the first half.

The reason is because LSU rarely shows up prepared and ready to play for a full 4 quarters. When LSU does show up for a full 4 quarters, what do ya know? We beat the shite out of A&M.

I'm not saying we need to blow everyone out the water, but a solid 4 quarter performance really isn't too much to ask out of Miles.

GTFO with this nonsense. It was so rare that it we did it almost every game this year. We came to play a full game against UGA, gave Bama all we were capable of giving them, and won all our other games.

There were maybe two games where we didn't play like we should, and we still won one of them after losing Mett.

Good luck trying to reason with these dunderheads. In their foggy mentality, LSU "should" win every game because they have the best athletes in the world, no other team has good athletes, opponents are supposed to lie down against the legend that is LSU, supposed weaker teams never EVER get up for a big game, yada yadda yadda.

Not sure why you ever would think we would "blow out" Iowa. They are 5-3 in the Big Ten, so similar to us, especially without a proven starter playing his first full game at QB.

Look at recent Big 10-SEC matchups in the Outback Bowl...Big 10 and SEC seem to matchup pretty well.

Iowa is a very scrappy blue-collar team.

Just wanted to pull the camera back and ask some here why in the first place you think that Iowa is so lowley? Have you seen Iowa play? Did they get the benefit of pre-season rankings only to fall (like so many SEC teams).

Why does iowa suck so much? Why is LSU go dg great?

Your conference is awful, and you lost 4 games in it? You've beaten no one worth mentioning.

dg=dog gone? dad gum? Our program is way ahead of yours. I mean that with no disrespect. It's just a fact. We should beat you more than 9/10 times. Of course anything can happen, so yall may win.

But the simple fact remains, Iowa has done nothing this year that should make LSU scared. LSU can't just sleep walk and expect to win, but LSU should win if they try at all. It is what it is.

No genius, and we lost by more then Moo St did, and didn't just lose 1/9/12, was the worst loss of the BCS era!

Just curious, doesn't matter really, except that some folks like me attend every home game and most away games (UGA, Bama included) and have a real stake in this program want it to be as great as can be not just blind love for CLM. And no he is not going anywhere soon unless the ticket sales start to dwindle in TS which has little chance of occurring just want him to be close to perfect for the $ he is getting like i am expected on mine.

You have a real stake compared to me because you spend some extra money?

Why only limit it to 9 years? Did Saban not have close games here? Why is this supposedly only a Les phenomenon?


Don't bring that kid of shite to this thread. Just nod your head, drool on your keyboard a little, and bitch about something related to LSU. If somebody brings something positive out, study it until you can spin it negatively.

That is not a championship team trait


Winning more games than any other BSC program since 05 is not a championship team trait?

Having as many SEC titles, 2, as any SEC school since 05 is not a championship team trait?

Having as many SECW titles, 3, as any west program since 05 is not a championship trait team?

Being 1 of the top 3 programs in the nation in BCSG appearances since 05 is not a championship trait team?

All done while the SEC is by far a more dominating football conference than at any other time in SEC history.

I'm thinking any of the above is far more indicative of a championship team trait than how close games might or might not be.

Each to our own, but if all we have to bitch bout is our winning cushion, then we are acting like ungrateful, spoiled children. imo

Well, yeah
Not saying you or anyone less of a T Fan for not, this would be ignorant; but because we spend a little extra $ (3,000/yr home) plus the road expenses and the time and effort we are entittled to throw out some constructive criticism of the coaching staff that is obvious to the rest of the national perception. CLM record speaks for itself as I said fully support him but if you don't see some mental lapses in some periods of the games you have to be blind and this is just part of his MO. However, doesn't mean we shouldn't expect him to try to improve on this and he even addmitted as such after OM debacle!

Just how sad are you that we didn't blow it against Arky so you could thump your chest about being a better coach than Miles?
