Maybe you guys should have had the Hawkeyes sub for the Buckeyes in the 2007 BCS game then. I think Ohio State came into that game ranked 1st in the nation in defense. I don't remember LSU struggling to move the football against a vaunted Big Ten defense on that night.
The guy is not talking about the 07 offense, he is talking about this years offense which sucks.......quit talking about the past. This is the now and we haven't beaten anyone. Your probably one of the fans who thinks losing by 10 to an obviously different tebow than what we are used to was a moral victory, we have beaten terrible sec teams. If he didn't have that concussion it is a different game.

I don't know how different the FLA/LSU game is with a healthy Tebow. Healthy or not he still doesn't have any WRs.
But as far as Iowa is concerned. This weekend was the first time I've seen them this year. I was shocked at how little team speed they had. Ohio State doesn't have great team speed but they'll run circles around Iowa. I'm sure Iowa has an outstanding OL that can run power and inside zone with the best of them (they are in the big 10), But I'd be shocked if they had more than 6 or 7 guys that could run in the 4.6 range.

LSU hasn't beaten anyone? Who is "anyone"? Who the hell has Iowa beaten? Besides Florida, Alabama and Texas, who else has seperated themselves at this point?
The schedules are made years in advance. Within those schedules, LSU is required to play all of its SEC West opponents plus three from the SEC East. Is it LSU's fault that UGA and Auburn are down a little this year? Is it LSU's fault that Washington and Ms. State are improved? LSU is playing the teams set on its schedule and right now LSU stands at 7-1 and still controls its own destiny. How many other teams in the country besides Florida, Alabama and Texas can say that? Not even Iowa can say that because if LSU wins out, then I guarantee you LSU will jump Iowa even if Iowa finishes undefeated.
And, no, I am not a fan who believes the performance against Florida was a moral victory. But I also don't think losing to the number one team in the country is a disgrace or that it makes our team suck or that it ruins the season. Unlike you, I believe LSU has a lot left to play for and the ability to achieve those goals.
If you think LSU sucks so much and Iowa is a better program, then switch your allegiance to Iowa. You think LSU sucks at 7-1? Then you are really in for a disappointment if you think Iowa can match LSU's success year in and year out in football.
