Wishful thinking or fact?


Educated prediction. You think we're only gonna throw 14 passes a game the rest of the year?

It was Harris' first win as a starter. On the road. Against a sec west team. We were careful with him and leaned on a very dominant rushing attack. Nothing wrong with that. We will expand our calls in the future.



It's a question of degree.

I support being careful. I support leaning on a dominant rushing attack. We were over the top on those two items last night, and it almost cost us a game that we had no business losing. We got lucky. The strategy failed...but they missed the field goal.

That's not luck. Lol

That's being the better team. If we won, the strategy worked.

I'm seeing a team that I can't really complain about any particular part of the team that is severely lacking. They all looked capable to beat any team in our schedule. We had a top 25 divisional rival reeling on the road. I was really excited at half with how strong we looked.

Then the same things that always happen popped up. Players didn't do anything wrong. They were just handcuffed. 4 passes in the second half is laughable. Yes we won, but we've got a lot of these games to look forward to and someone is going to make that field goal. That's going to ruin championship hopes. It's one thing to lose, but when you've proven you are better, but let them back in the game, that's a problem. Yes it's a negative mindset, but I just see the writing on the wall. This will cause a loss that we should not have at some point. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Honestly, I get exactly how the OP is feeling. I've been watching LSU football for 30 years.

Les Miles has made me miserable for at least the last 5 years. I almost dread game day because I know it's going to be a frustrating experience that just makes me mad. I can't remember the last time I actually enjoyed a game. I go into every game wondering what dumb arse shite Les Miles is going to do. I hate it. In a significant game I used to run around the house and pump my fists and make noise for a big play but now I just sit and watch in silence because I know what ends up happening.

Last night was a perfect example. After the first quarter, I was so pumped. "Things have changed" I told myself. Not too much into the 2nd quarter I saw the writing on the wall and knew CLM was still CLM and and his idiocy was going to suck yet another year of life out of this program.

There is no reason to have confidence in CLM outside of recruiting. He is going to do the same shite he has done in the last 4 or 5 years and leave us completely frustrated. Something happened to this guy. I don't know what it was or exactly when it happened.

The guy that once designed trick plays that no one had ever thought of before and used them in situations that took wheel barrel balls now tries to sit on a 14 point, first quarter lead against one of the best quarterbacks we will face all year.

I was back and forth on CLM but my moment was the Arkansas game last year. He'll never get me back.

We will be on this board in 4 months yet again talking about how Les did illogical shite that took down our season.

I have hoped over the last few years that a bulb would go off in his head and he would figure it out, but based on last night we are headed right into Groundhog Day.

We have had 3 great years in my opinion. 06, 07 and 2013. The rest of the years were pure garbage. Same song and dance every year.





Then you're fricking stupid. We have finished top 15 8 out of Miles 10 seasons.

2005--won the west, destroyed top 10 Miami. GARBAGE!
2010--beat Bama, won the cotton bowl whipping A&M. GARBAGE!
2011--Undefeated regular season, SEC champs, Heisman finalist, played in the NC. GARBAGE!
2012--10 wins, 90 seconds away from playing in a second straight NC. GARBAGE!


And you Ignore all of this and include 2013??

This is a 5 star restaurant menu of DUMBASS.

Oh gawd that is so sad

I feel so sorry for you. You need to find a way to end all of your misery. This is entirely too much for your delicate nature for have to bear. Life hasn't been kind to you has it? I mean how dare Les Miles and the LSU team do things that aren't the way YOU want it done. Don't they know who you and how delicate your sensibilities are?

How DARE they do that to you? You of all people? Why are they so cruel to you? Why, oh why do they torture you so? It is personal isn't it? They are doing things to make you sad just on purpose because they are sadistic little devils that just like to see you cry? Bad Les! Bad Les! He made you cry.

I have seen you repeatedly talk about miss st as if they are a powerhouse. Just because they had a great year last year doesn't mean they are a good program. I will be shocked if they finish 3-5 in the sec. Maybe you think they will be more competitive so please tell me what you think they will finish this year? I think you are just building them up to make this win seem great knowing that they will suck and not be ranked the rest of the year.

No. Just no.

Bad decisions aren't justified by outcome. This is basic logic.

LSU took on more risk than they needed to yesterday BECAUSE they were so conservative. Likewise, they could have taken on more risk than they needed to by being overly aggressive in the passing game.

There was a happy middle that the coaching staff missed, IMO.

Miss State is down this year. They aren't very good. We controlled the LOS on both sides of the ball. That didn't happen last year.

They are going to struggle in SEC play. 3 wins looks like the high mark to me.

It's amazing to me the number of people who seem to struggle with this most basic and most important of sports concepts!

I wasn't really intending to say anything bad about anyone or the coating staff, it was more of a post about how I've accepted things the way they are and its less stressful that way.

I think they will suck but many on here are acting like this is a huge win. We lost to them once in 15-16 years and they are a good team

2010 was a damn fine year and so was '05 considering we had to play 12 weeks in a row and no Ally Broussard.

Garbage year was '08 and '09 certainly was a parody of itself.

We beat Bama in '10 and only lost to Newton and Arkansas. We drilled A&M in JerryWorld.

We do not have to go undefeated every year for it not to be garbage.

They were a good team last year. They aren't this year.

You know how I know...because we dominated them on the ground with a one dimensional attack.
