Same here. Bama fans are too wrapped up in Bama right now to worry about LSU, and the ones who do talk about it seem to think it's good that we kept Miles.
who would blame a bama fan for that sentiment?

Murfreesboro, TN - most here are Bama sidewalk fans. There is a good deal of Vols fans too. The Bama fans thought we were nuts and they love Les Miles. They fear and respect Saban - but seem to genuinely see Miles as a good guy and good coach. They also tell me that they secretly see LSU as their chief rival since Miles arrived.

Vols fans think we are beyond insane considering what they have gone through the last decade. They are just now starting to get some high level recruits and they seem fairly happy with Butch.

I also have a number of Ole Miss alum neighbors and they are cool. They are shocked at the way LSU is struggling. Of all the fans near me - the Ole Miss fans are my favorite. The Arkansas fans are my least favorite.

I live in SC. Not getting hammered. Most everyone thinks that LSU was crazy to try to fire Miles, and that the AD/boosters handled it inappropriately. Most see a definite contrast with the way Georgia handled the Richt situation.

Pretty much everyone outside of this fanbase thinks it would be insane to give up Les for anything short of Saban, Meyer, and maybe Jimbo, Dabo, Patterson, or Briles.

Remember outside of Lousiana, LSU is considered no more special or elite as an overall program than about 10 other programs. LSU has outperformed pretty much every program save Bama and Ohio State in the last decade. To them even thinking about it seems nuts.

I'm here in TX too - not by choice - and had to hear all last week how hard the Aggies were gonna kick us since we were down. Since that didn't happen, there is silence from those fans.

A Longhorn fan who was hate-watching the game texted me: "wow, LSU's QB can't even make short passes." THIS. After I've been complaining for years that we are unbalanced on offense and need better QBs.

Been there and we also venture out to RickyP's in St Pete.

I dont catch a lot of slack from UF guys since we beat them the last few years. But they understand my pain in wanting a change.

Just spoke with a Baylor fan who went to Tiger Stadium for the first time this weekend with his Aggie friends. He was absolutely blown away by the experience.

We're still a few rungs above Arkansas, I assure you.

Mobile, AL., so lots of Bama/AU fans; most were astounded that they would fire Miles with his record; not many outside our fan base get the frustration of the fan base, even former players, with our historically anemic offense.

All that said, I'm glad they gave him another year. I would really like to see him 1) succeed or 2) step down of his own accord rather than the protracted agony that transpired this year.

Let's be honest, LSU has become the laughing stock of the college football world and we are stuck with 4 loss Les for another year,
This is nonsense. I live in FL, where we beat the Gators. No noise from them. My FSU alum son in law didn't like our flirting with Jimbo, but was perplexed as to why LSU would fire CLM, even with a bad string of losses. My other son in law, a Longhorn alum laughed that we might fire our coach - said at least you're not 4-6... very positive toward CLM. My UGA friends and relatives are dealing with their own stuff and not paying attention to LSU. Nor are my UK and Iowa connections.
Thus, methinks thou hast thin skin and rabbit ears.
