Since 2000 (last 22 yrs), LSU is 18 - 4 in home openers. The only L where LSU got physically beat on the field was @ VA Tech. I blame the losses vs. Wisc., MS St, and UCLA on stupid coaching. Our then HC (Miles and CEO) did not have the players prepared, nor did they make ANY crucial game time decisions. The Wisc game @ Lambeau was an absolute joke

2002 - @ #16 VA Tech L 8-26

It would have been a victory if Dumbo would have started Etling.

As soon as Miles put him in against Auburn the next week, (Too late though) the Offense looked night and day better.

That was the only non conference regular season loss in Miles’ 10+ years at LSU. Wisc went on to win 11 games and played for the B1G championship.

I was at some of those home openers.
Definitely the Oregon & TCU games were fun.

Don't give Va Tech a pass

I remember Saban's tirade at the time, and I remember Beamer laughing about it.
Saban did not have LSU ready to play a team the caliber of Va Tech in that situation, and both coaches knew it. Saban didn't make crucial in-game adjustments in that game, either.

I get that you hate Miles and Orgeron, and probably respect Saban; but they ALL made the same mistake.
