Will bite us in the arse this year, IMO.

After the quality of play I witnessed this season, I see no reason to be confident about soundly beating a very, very good team in PSU.

Not saying we won't win, but all this talk (from SOME of you) about blowing them out is not supported by evidence.

LSU will not blow PSU out. Will be close regardless of who wins. Neither team has the offense to truly blow someone out.

Not to mention it is virtually impossible for Miles to remain undefeated in bowl games. He is gonna lose one eventually...everyone does

LSU's offense sucks too much to blow anyone out. I think it'll be something like
LSU-23
Penn State-16

Fan confidence is irrelevant. If you think the Tigers will lose, bet against them. Otherwise, keep your weakness and fear to yourself.

Who said LSU would lose, T-Boy?

Quit being such a defensive douche for no reason.

With all due respect, Luke, the negativity has really gotten old.

half the fans are overconfident about the bowl game, the other half thinks the program has collapsed to the depths of the abyss

I think LSU wins, but neither team will blow anyone out. LSU didn't blow out La Tech. Will be a close game.

So if I think LSU will beat PSU, but not annihilate them, I'm being negative?

So if I have an opinion that is supported by evidence instead of contrary to it, I'm being negative?

Jesus christ, some of you people are just plain, old-fashioned mother fricking stupid.

(FWIW, I'm not singling you out CT, but read my post and think about it from another perspective before you assume it's negative)

Negatiger..

SOme people never abandon the P&G goggles for even a second. They think if you don't claim dominance you are negative. You can't just say LSU will win, but they have to win BIG.

I don't think the fans will decide the outcome of the game. Les has had his teams at LSU well prepared for the bowl games. I won't question that until proved otherwise.

Last year LSU was in worse shape going into the bowl imo with a 7-5 and a losing SEC record. Yet they were well prepared for the bowl game.

Wasn't meaning to say you were negative. It's just that 8 million people before you have been, so everyone is getting a little touchy.

You're right, genuine.

LSU will hang 70 on PSU and hold them to 3. I base this on the fact that PSU is in a conference that is the equivalent of a 1A HS football division, whereas LSU plays the 72 Dolphins every week in the SEC.

In other news, the sky is green. If you are looking at the sky and seeing it as blue, then you're just negative against the color green and racist against the Irish.

FACT!!!!

Shocker of the bowl season IMO. Everyone was predicting that triple option to run all over that lSU defense.

LSU will win by 20. The ones who doubt it are probably the ones who didn't show up or left the Arkansas game early.
