We should not be happy with 9-3 seasons. Yes it wasnt too long ago that we were 3-9 but i lived through the nineties and was diehard lsu even then, but it hurts to see a schalacking like saturday. We deserve better as fans than to witness the lack of spunk and discipline that is a staple to LSU defenses for the last several years. I firmly believe that no matter what Florida did saturday, it was gonna work. The first drive should have told us that. But the way we lost is what is bothering us fans. The defense played without urgency or fight. Blast me if you like, but we deserve better. That being said, I know Miles will make the right decision, it just hurts to have to wait. I hope he starts cracking some heads so we can be effective on saturday against Spurrier.

Really sunk in when my eight year old daughter came in the room with tears in her eyes. I was proud to see she shared the same love of the team that runs in my blood. We shall rise.

We play in the SEC, we're going to lose games. It happens. We're not going to lose 2 or less every year under Miles. Meyer lost 4 last year. Richt has lost 4 twice. Spurrier hasn't been able to lose less than 5 at South Carolina. Saban lost SIX at Bama last year and lost 4 or more at LSU twice. This is a tough league. If we played in the P10 with USC's schedule, sure, I'd get upset over losing 3 or more considering they play no one. But when you have the Florida's, Georgia's and Alabama's of the world on your schedule you're bound to drop some games. This post was edited on 10/13 at 10:00 a.m.

EricDB1705 LSU Fan Member since Sep 2008 2039 posts	re: We shouldnt be happy with Mediocre (Posted on 10/13/08 at 10:10 a.m. to BAMBAM) i am sorry i was born in 1987, it doesnt mean i didnt live through the nineties... i was in kindergarten in 1992... by the time i was in second grade i was watching lsu every saturday... and during baseball season i watched each weekend. i am 21 years old, i didnt know it took someone older to realize the 90s were not a great time. i remember the win over florida in 97. I remember the 94 season under hallman. I remember the 98 loss to georgia. I remember that in 98 we started ranked 9 and climbed to 6 before losing to georgia. i remember the bad defense and the great offense. so dont think that because i was born in 87 that i dont know LSU football. 9-3 was good at a time, but i have been spoiled. I want the double digit winning seasons and i sure as hell dont want to be blown out.

That will be in two years. The deal was sealed when RP was kicked off the team. We had no back up QB in waiting.
