Saints Effect

112

Rise of Saints an Saban/Alabama have exponentially increased criticism of LSU's shortcomings.

good reasoning IMO

So far as I can tell, the primary effect of the Saints' recent success is that many of the bandwagon fans who used to ride LSU's nuts are now cozily snuggled in Payton's jock, pretending that they have been fanatical black and gold supporters since the dark days of the 1970's.

(P.S. I am not from New Orleans nor am I a saints fan. Just my impartial observation.)

After watching last night, I stand corrected. Offense plain and simply just sucks due to Jefferson's lack of ability to read the defenses and make quick decisions. Hard to tell who is open without the coaches cam, but on play in particular Jefferson was intent on throwing the out to Randle and almost got picked. TE was running the seam wide the f open. Teams are going to continue to stack the box and play zone defense which will hurt our ability to run and make Jefferson find openings in coverage and deliver accurate passes (which as of now he can do neither). Time to give Lee a chance. I'd rather a few picks than what I saw last night. Just horrible.

It's amazing how the times change. Who would have ever thought we would be talking about how great the saints were!

I get what you're saying, but I think the Saints actually make it easier to deal with LSU. There has been a complete 180 degree flip flop in that regard. At one time, there were 50 people at a time in the purple and gold sports shop and 10 in the black and gold right next door. It's the exact opposite now. I can't stand the bandwagoners either, just stating an observation.

It sure feels like the LSU fanbase is getting apathetic.

you guys keep using Saban as the scapegoat when you can clearly see the bad coaching out there when LSU plays, so just go on and keep using Saban as an excuse!
