A 9-3 regular season means we either go 1-2 vs Ole Miss, Alabama and A&M or we drop a game to Auburn, Miss State, Arkansas, Florida or Mizzou.

There’s really no excuse for either or reason to be “happy”. We are supposed to be one of the elite programs in college football. We have a coach who is paid an at elite level. Our expectations should be such.

With that said, I think the real LSU team is more of the one was saw the first three quarters of the game and not the one from the fourth quarter.

This is the mistake our fanbase is making

We are NOT an elite program right now. We are missing 2 full classes... we have sophomores, freshmen, and transfers.
The portal is nice, but it doesn't give you a full class that has spent seasons in the system, developing. It gives you a couple bandaids to stop the bleeding.

The coach's salary has no impact on the fact that we are missing those classes.

An elite program has tons of depth; if you lose a guy, the WORST CASE scenario is you replace him with a junior who is "merely good" and knows the system inside out. The best case is you have a 5 star freshman who was pushing for that spot anyway, and he takes over.

We ain't there yet. This is the 2nd consecutive year we've have to bring outsiders in to play both corners. Hopefully it's the last.
