This could go two ways depending on how Les manages the QB situation and how much he gives up on the 1 WR clusterfrick packages.

I do think Les makes the switch to Harris. I think he knows he could go winless and eventually be fired after next year.

NMSU- I think we win this one big, like 52-10.

@Auburn- I think we fight hard but lose this one 31-20

@Florida- They're pretty bad. I think we sneak out of here with a win. 20-17

Kentucky- Their offense and Dline match up well with us. I call a close win here 30-27.

Ole Miss- I think we get thumped hard. They're a more physical and talented team than MSU. 35-17

Alabama- With the team disheartened and Bama running a beautiful modern offense, we lose 42-17.

@Arkansas- Bad matchup in Fayetteville too. Best Run game in SEC and great Dline. We get thumped again. 38-20.

@TAMU- This is their superbowl wanting to get the LSU monkey off their back. Our team is disheartened, so I think it's over early. Think Auburn 2012. Sadly I say 48-24 with a couple of TDs in garbage time like yesterday's game.

That puts us at 6-6. We make a crappy bowl and win, to put us at 7-6.

What changes get made going into next season? Surely we can't just chalk it up to youth? I mean, Bama and TAMU (going forward) will never chalk up 6-6 to youth. They just reload. If this plays out the way I think it will, Les should be told 9 wins in '15 or GTFO.

Good to see you're not overreacting as usual.

We have played for three national championships in the last 12 years. Our program is set up to play for a championship every four years. And I'm happy with that. Any program in America would be happy with that. Any true Tiger fan is happy with that as well. Those are great numbers. Before 2003 we have one national championship. One. One.

And that was over 100 years of football. Now we're planning for one every four years. You losers are spoiled. And unrealistic. Just straight delusional. Les has this team primed for a run next year. Enjoy the ride you fools.

Take your moral victories and championships elsewhere. Better yet les just go figure out how to run a real modern day offense.

Overreacting? We just got smoked by the 6th best team in the WEst at home. I prefer to think this is realistic.

We just need to utilize our talent. If Fournette is really the best back, stop being loyal to senior and give it to your best player.

If we are less than .500 this season, your scenario plus a swamp loss, the national perception will be that Miles has lost his touch.

You won't have to remember the 90s we will be there again.

You know this isn't a real, meaningful trend right? It was just coincidence.

03 and 07 were gift wrapped for Les by Saban.

'11 was a good job by Les, but he managed to shite all over it with the worst loss in program history.

We'll see if '15 brings us an Nc game. I just don't know who will be playing on the lines for us or how we're going to win with antiquated schemes. The game is a lot different now than it even was in '11.

0-3 against the Missy schools and 0-4 against Bama since 2011 should get him fired.

When was the last time we got beat back to back by Ole Miss?

I saw 7-8 wins before the bowl game..

Face a 7-8 win team in Penn State in the Pin Stripe bowl and dominate them.

At some point you have to get better but with so many inexperienced players it will take some time.

They looked a lot better than 6th in the west to me. I know this is your wet dream and all but at least give them some credit, they played a great game.
