i didnt find this board until 2010 so i wasnt around back then.

so all you old timers, compared to now, what was the general consensus about the team, the program, and most importantly the coach in 2008 when we lost 5 games?

just curious as a fan.

Swap AJ with Jarrett Lee, Swap Brandon Harris with Jordan Jefferson

Swap Cam Cameron with Doug Mallory/Peveto

Les Miles the constant.


There you have it

the same exact things being said right now, were being said back then

just the defense was inept instead of the offense

I remember being on here when Troy was up 31-3 that year


That definitely goes on the list of "Rant Heydays"

well this is a positive if you ask me. in 2008, we sucked on both sides of the ball. at least this year we only suck on offense. maybe all isnt lost.

Though I had a different name then..

the turnovers were killer, but the offense could move the ball and put up points, unlike now

Yeah our offensive woes that year had more to do with how bad our defense sucked

1. Sick name

2. I think it is worse now. There obviously have been a lot of people hating on Les sense 1/9 and they sort have been held at pay by 10 win season.

Now they are just reveling in it, and holding this up as the bloody knife, in the murder trial of the LSU football Program by the coward Leslie Miles.

We didn't make as much progress as we thought. We re-hired Peveto. Can't believe we gave up ground that we fought so hard to win.

One of my favorite "forgotten" meltdowns was 2004 Georgia. 2007 Kentucky was good too.

we would never beat bama, florida, or auburn again as long as Miles is here
we would never win the SEC West again as long as Miles is here
we would never win the SEC again as long as Miles is here


this is not an exaggeration. i read the above many times on this board

Don't get me wrong, I think there is a large portion of the people on here that think like that but in my opinion the same exact stuff that was being said in 08 is being said now.. Just swap the names out

Sorry, no...LSU fans were never unhappy prior to January 2005.

Nothing but undefeated seasons and blowjobs back then...the good ole days.

Our fan base is a bunch of irrational yards who grab the pitch forks after the first play goes for negative yardage

Only we were 10 months removed from a NC, not 7 years.
