Maybe it's me... maybe not.

IMO, the root cause of what we're seeing as problems comes down to mental focus. Mett fumbling snaps or getting stripped when pressured.
RBs putting the ball on the ground.. since when do LSU RBs put the ball on the ground that much ?
Pre-snap penalties - enough said, that's all focus.
Dropped passes - we make the circus catches but drop the passes in our hands. Again, focus to me.

My only remaining question about this team is what will it take to focus them ?

If a top 10 match-up on the road in the Swamp doesn't do it, I'm afraid that little will get the job done.

I think the players, not CLM, get themselves mentally prepared this week and leave Florida with a win that shuts up a lot of people... please God let me be right.

Hard to disagree here.

maybe we can get the guy to come in who taught the little Giants football is 95% mental and then our OL will be able to block. He turned that fatass kid into a legit OL, so let's give it a shot

I hope the team gets focused and skull drags Florida

You know.. Like last year.

A 42-7 raping would silence a lot of negative Nancy's
