Yeah, I know LSU was humiliated. But LSU had a great season. LSU has had a great seven seasons with Les Miles and one game should not cause the Tiger faithful to flip. It's easy right now to be angry and to grasp at crazy ideas. When you feel heartbreak, you look for reasons. But sometimes there isn't a reason. Football is a zero sum game. One wins. The other loses. LSU lost. It's as simple as that. We might believe Miles coached poorly in the game, but Miles has done a phenomenal job of coaching at LSU during his tenure there. It has been a far better and more satisfying tenure than during the Saban years. The man has earned the Tiger faithful's respect.

Would you do it? Would you march again for Coach Miles and the 2011 LSU football Tigers? Would you go out and cheer them on, showing them that win or lose, LSU faithful are faithful to the Tigers. It'd be bigger than the Jena 6 march. It'd be as big as the March on Washington in 1963. You could rally somewhere on campus, and then head down the street to the Football OP Center.

I have to put my truck in the shop in the morning, but I could catch a ride down with Hot Carl or Bayourant.

Sorry Brother, Im with the sheek, not this time, been there done that , just too embarassed of the crap that I saw Monday night. Maybe down the road when time has passed but I can assure you , of all the goodwill and every good thing he has done went out the window Monday night . Not the loss, Ive supported him through several of his boneheaded mistakes. Long time for me to get back on bandwagon after Monday night. Sorry.

You and a few of your friends can go. I'm sure Jefferson and his family will go too.

Have fun.

Yes! I think Miles loves LSU and would never do anything to hurt the school or the football program. It is not in his character. I still support him and so will everyone else when we beat Bama next season!

Les doesn't care if we support him or not. I don't think he would care if you showed up to throw a parade for him. He makes 4 million a year. He is gonna be fine. He is unconcerned about fan approval.

I wish I could have been in BR and been there to welcome the team and coaches back to BR after the loss. You want to bask vicariously in the glow of their successes, I think it warrants a little effort in helping to console when they fail.

Until he explains why he stuck with a sorry quarterback--NO hell NO.
The way he treated JL leaves me to believe that Les can be a petty vindictive SOB.

21 points separate some LSU's fans alleged undying support and complete rejection. It is astonishing to me how fickle people can be. At love with the highest songs of praise one minute. The next, a raging ocean, hateful froth spewing from their mouths.

Our course LSU nation is fickle - which is why EVERYONE demands greatness from our coach. He failed his team and he failed his players when it mattered most - end of story. Sure there is the cliched "there's always next year", but that won't take away this sting.

To allow a team to go out there so ill-prepared is ridiculous and as true fans, we feel slapped in the face. I personally still support Les 100%, but I sure as hell aren't going to celebrate an embarrassment via a parade. If there were a good job opening soon, I wouldn't be surprised if he took it as no one, including Saban, will let him live this one down as unfortunate as it is.
