2003-2011 LSU had 6 years with 2 losses or less. 2012-2022 only one

I miss the football teams from the early 2000s. We had 6 years out of 9 where we had 2 losses or less.
Since then, in an 11 year span, we've only had one season (2019)
People can hate on Les miles as much as they want, but we had some great teams and great recruiting

The spread offense, and its widespread adoption was a great equalizer.

You do realize he was still the coach from 2013-2016?

Check LSU’s recruiting rankings against the rest of the conference in each of those periods. I think you will find your answer.

The loss to Bama left LSU football in a hangover.

Starting in 2006 the schedule changed from 11 games to 12 games.

Not an excuse, but certainly a factor. Also made the "10-win season" less impressive.

I miss that football. Where “Blue on Black” by Kenny Wayne Shepherd was the official song of LSU football coming to whip your arse.

statistically one of if not the best head coaches in the programs history. I'll always have appreciation for what he did at LSU.

If we are being honest the 2011 natty was the decline till 2019 of the lsu program...after les never adapted his losses started piling then he got fired. Then O gets hired he did well up until after he won the natty after that you know the rest...CBK is what Lsu needed regardless if he wins a natty (which I think he will) or not he brings stability to a juggernaut program.
