Kinda wish we didnt have high expectations.

Its not that i sont have high hopes.
But now IF we dont make it to at least a playoff spot (god forbid) , all we will hear is how Brandon Harris failed to lead the team.
Id like us to earn hype, not just have it. Thats some major pressure to put on a team that faces Nick Saban annually.
90% of the time , a team that plays loose and disciplined plays better than a tight, pressured one.
I of course pulled that stat out of my arse, but i believe it to be true.

I didnt expect this to be accepted well. I just hate offseason hype, and weve done absolutely zero to warrant a top 10 ranking. Zero.

We as fans seem to do it every year. The problem is not all teams are the same so you need to lower those expectations some years

High expectations are good.

Do or die the season. I said yesterday, I want the bullseye squarely on our backs all season. We have a great team and there is no reason to start back=peddling with wimpy azz excuses now. Miles better ride this biotch to the promised land...or damned close....or he needs to get him a cup of pencils and set up shop in front of Walmart.

This is the Rant. Half the people here expect us to lose every game 5 minutes into the first quarter if we have to punt or if the other team gets a first down.
This is the classic "the sky is falling" forum. Just wait awhile. Expectations will plummet.

What are talking about??? We are what we are because of what we are...high ranking because of how it's relative to everyone else. It is what it is.

I said this after baseball ended. This past baseball season was so much fun because there were no expectations and I already dread the crazies expecting us to play perfect at all times next season.

This 2016 team doesn't have to face Nick Saban annually they just have to play them once. Anything can happen in one game.

Nah frick that
All this hype just makes me more pumped
I've learned to guard my heart though, I can't take another November like 2015

Doesn't really matter what "we" and the media have.....just those players & coaches.

There is no excuse for this staff and this talent to lose more than 1 game. If Miles loses more than 1 game in 2016 then its probably time to move in a new direction.
1. We didnt get gutted by the nfl draft for once.
2. We return 18 starters.
3.we have a returning qb WITH experience.
4. Our offense isnt having to learn new terminology on offense.
5. We have LEONARD FOURNETTE
6. Our main rivals had lots of turnover
7. WE HAVE LEONARD FOURNETTE
barring 2012 typ string of injuries
THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR LOSING MORE THAN 1 GAME IN 2016.

Annually is yearly, therefore once yearly. So yes LSU faces Nick Saban Annually until he retires

Im glad you said it because i was wondering the same thing. Annually is right.
Posted on 6/29/16 at 9:29 pm to Lionnation1993
No, annually means the same date every year. What you're referring to is yearly. We play Alabama yearly, not annually. It's the reason you get a yearbook in high school as opposed to the misnomer 'Annual." If it's not the same date, it's not annual. Common mistake.

As angry as negative as this fanbase is coming into a season with a top 5 ranking, the leading heismsn candidate, and the most winning coach in our history who has brought us to 2 NC games I can't imagine what this place would be like If we didn't have high expectations
Even more negative, or a ghost town. Both of which would suck

LSU should play loose and disciplined in every game they play starting with their head coach.
