Nah. You're just too near sighted to be of any benefit to the fan base.

We have two recruits scheduled for visits during the Tenn game. Go ahead and boo. You're doing the Alabamas, Auburns, and Texases of the world a favor by turning recruits off.

Maybe you should shut your pie-hole and think a little bit.


But our fan base was never known for its reasonableness.

LSU is not the laughing stock of the college football world. The same thing is going on here in Atlanta with UGA, and Blacksburg with VaTech, and tonight on college football live they were discussing the Red River Rivalry and hoe Texas fans have been asking all week if its time for Mack Brown to retire. Get over urself and thinking this is a problem with only LSU fans.


TEXAS, UGA, and VT? You're comparing what they've done to deserve booing to what LSU has? I don't mean this in a bad way, but do you know what your IQ is?

4-0

I repeat for all of the idiots out there that can't comprehend or are incapable of rational thought.

4-0

the talking heads know what the problem is, Kornheiser had it absolutely nailed on PTI. They get it.

There are people here that still don't get it. It's sad when the talking heads get it right and LSU's own followers don't understand it.

You can't make people at a football game NOT boo. You're not going to, and it's completely idiotic to try and think you're just going to dismiss this from the fan base.

We're not the laughing stock....it's quite the opposite. Especially after the Ole Miss debacle last year that made all sorts of news on ESPN, sports fans know all about LSU's head coach (for chrissakes they pushed the "mad hatter" name for awhile) and the nonsensical activities he puts forth.

Some of you people really need to take yourself out of the LSU bubble just for a second.

I agree. There is no cure for an acute case of "a-hole".

Everybody needs to get their panities out of the wad and relax a little. I'm a season ticket holder in the lower west side and the only boo birds there are the 20-somethings who are roaring drunk or swaping spit with their girlfriends and could care less what he score is...People have a right to boo. It's stupid but so are the drunks who show up and can't remember the score the next day. BTW, I'm 65 and nobody can out-yell me where my Tigahs are concerned. Semper Fi.

Just heard Oklahoma State fans booing when they failed to stop A&M from converting on 4th and 1.

Not unique to LSU fans.

I hereby challenge you to a yell-off at Mike the Tiger's cage at high noon on Saturday.

You better "bring it" old man.

you can't tell that to these people though, they just don't get it.

Every stadium does, Alabama did it last year on their championship run.

There was a 3rd and 8 call, btw, in the game you just mentioned, and Ok. State fans let them HAVE IT. The call?

Run up the gut.

Again, reality doesn't live here on the rant.

3rd and 8 call was certainly not booing at the refs.

It is not the fans image that needs to be restored it is the offense's image that needs to be restore! Maybe a touchdown would do that!!!!

So when Oklahoma State does it one can differentiate when they are booing the team/coaches/refs, but when some LSU fans try to claim they were booing the coaches it's impossible to differentiate? Gotcha.

again, though, how do you separate the boos though? There have been some serious conversations on here on how you separate "boos".

While I agree with you in that situation, we're guessing. How do we know that they're not booing the play call? the personnel? The RB? The QB?

OSU fans booing for a few seconds =/= LSU fans booing the team for an entire half.

People need to stop with giving "examples" of how everyone does it. No one boos a 4-0 team. That's the whole fricking reason we get called out on national TV and not other fan bases.

What happened Saturday was unique and embarrassing.

ETA: Nevermind the fact that I stopped using the "everyone else is doing it" excuse back when I was a teenager.

If you think the crowd was booing for an entire half, you're sadly mistaken. I was at that game, and the crowd didn't boo for the entirety of the second half. shite, a ton of people left fwiw.

More booing btw in the Ok. State game. You're point is starting to look a little more invalid.
