It’s the second game of the season and our team is tired????

What about USC? They sure looked tired against Utah St winning 48-0

BK seems to have an “Excuse Du Jour” for everything.

USC had far less travel time.

We played a very competitive and physical game day late and traveled Monday, then immediately began practice Tuesday.

They aren’t drones.

His point was that it was a short week for recovery and moral was down after the loss. LSU didn’t have any swag.

Go fricking bitch somewhere else dumbass. They got back to Louisiana at 5am Monday morning after a very physical game. That changed what they could do Monday obviously. Then practiced Tuesday and be really without an extra day. If this was a Saturday and not Sunday, they would have an extra day PLUS they never change that many time zones to play a game. Just what it is.

A 2.5 hour private flight shouldn’t be that tiring

Yeah, ignore the rest of the factors.

Are you really this dense or just acting it?

Us fans and alumni are tired of Kelly’s excuses.

Why should we be more tired than USC? What other factors?

It is whenever you don’t take off on time and get back at 5am Monday morning essentially wasting the entire recovery day

Read the multiple posts that gave you the timeline.


You don’t have to like it, but at least he gave an answer. Miles and O would have just gave a non answer.

BK has never won opening game at LSU while Dennis Allen has never lost opening game with Saints. Just a thought.

ND fans warned LSU fans against certain things they hated about BK and verbally throwing other folks under the bus was one that's quickly becoming one of his most tiresome. His little hit-the-table rant of fake emotion was childish and embarrassing.

Whether it's a coach or coworker or friend or wife/partner/GF, constantly making excuses is tiresome and inexcusable bu11sh!te // IDC who it is or what circumstances prompt it, it shows a lack of personal responsibility. He did later say it was on him and he needed to coach better, but not before ragging others in a public forum.

Keep the dirty rags in the friggin locker room.

Wonder if they would have been “tired” if they had won the 1st game ?

Usc likely got back around 2-3 am. Don’t think it makes that much of a difference

So you have no idea what the two schedules look like nor the quality of their opponent compared to ours and you’re running your mouth based on assumptions.

Quality ranter.

No they didn’t lol. It’s like a 50 minute flight to LA. Unless they had worse issues than LSU getting off the tarmac they probably got back at midnight at the latest

If some of y’all would look at a map and where Las Vegas is in relation to Louisiana and California, you may notice that it was a little bit further back to Louisiana than USC had to make.

For the uneducated let me educate you. LSU going from 56 feet above sea level to 2000 ft above sea level while losing 2 hours gave USC a huge advantage. LA area is 562 fy to 5000 ft above sea level and in the same time zone. You hove no idea what you are talking about. There’s a reason we looked slow and tired the last part of the 4th qtr. it takes 7-10 days for your body to adjust to o that altitude and I know from personal experience. It also takes a few days to adjust getting back. It’s why they call it jet lag. USC didn’t have to deal with any of that but then most LSU fans aren’t that educated when it comes to science. But that’s what it is. Combine that with a very good FCS team that considers this their Super Bowl and you get a competitive first half. But we won unlike O who lost to Troy and Saban who lost to UAB. Educate yourselves and you won’t be so emotional. We will find out where we really are against SC.
