Too many penalties last night.

Our offensive line didn't hold up.

Receivers dropped the ball. A few of those would have been game changers.

Outside the 2 fumbles I thought Mett had a great game.

The refs really seemed to let the players play a lil too long, on both sides.

Dumbass. LSU isn't losing 3 games.

frick you're an idiot.


If you think the team that showed up last night will beat Florida, Bama, or even SCe, then I'm afraid you are delusional.

LSU's offensive scheme is stuck in the 20th Century. Opponents will learn lots from last night

Everyone wants to go to one extreme or the other. We didn't play well tonight but we did win and Auburn had everything going for it and really should have won.

The two early Mettenburger fumbles were a 10 point turnaround. One denied us 7 and the other gave them 3. Hopefully that won't happen again. Mett will have much better games I guarantee.

We should have stuck with the running game more until it was proved they could consistently stop us. Gave up on it for the middle part of the game. When we did run Spencer Ware got too many carries. He is a good back but Kenny Hilliard is better for the power game.

Some players need to be called out for not performing like they should be. Simon was supposed to be the new Claiborne and he hasn't even played like the old Simon. Clement has done very little. All the receivers have dropped too many passes. Stupid personal fouls have been way too common in all of the games but especially tonight. I was really happy to see Miles getting in their face about it. The offensive line has broken down way too many times on pass protection and aren't blowing people off the line on running plays like they did last year.

But are we bad? Hell no! Are we great? Maybe but we sure haven't proven it yet. Let's play some more games against quality opponents and see how we do.

That late hit well after the play is a lack of discipline and must be dealt with. Players must know that a team like Auburn is going to do chit to get a reaction and hopefully lead to a penalty. Drive or momentum killers. We're four games into the season and that chit must stop. UF committed 10-12 penalties in their opener and have cleaned that chit up. We must get out of our own way. LSU stopped themselves more that Auburn did. I felt that the LSU coaches allowed Auburn to take us out of what we do. I also believe that Hillard/Ford are the backs that should have been used more. Maybe Ware is a better blocker, I don't know, but if we are running I just think Hillard/Ford will wear them down. Then bring in Ware.

If LSU holds on to the ball, they would have made auburn quit like last year. That second fumble was huge, and it was all Mett. He was supposed to get the ball out quick. JD cut the auburn DE. Mett looked smoked up last night.

These are college kids and college teams have some obvious issues. Point out any college football team that doesn't have some obvious issues. Hell, point out any NFL teams that don't have some obvious issues. You're obviously not a coach...or even close to being one.

Obviously!

This. I'd add suspect coaching and poor play calling to his list.

2) lack of focus. With the academic suspensions and all the injuries, i think a lot of them came into camp out of shape and the grade issues show's lack of focus.

The turnovers killed lsu's momentum and gave auburn confidence and hope.

Clean up the penalties, the dropped passes (again) and the fumbles, and this is a dangerous team.

Oh, and find a LT

41, 41, 63...this team is very dangerous when they execute. People forget too quickly that this team can indeed put up points.
