It's a settling mentality . Don't worry next year , and the year after ,and the year after .. When was the last time we won it again? oh 2007 that was 5 years ago. these people and miles make me want to ..



WTF!! There is a reason why folks still talk about the 90s huskers. It is bloody difficult to catch lightning in a bottle and win titles within the span of a few years.

Bama got the lucky break last year when they got in despite not winning the SEC and the rest of College football not having a single team without a loss.

They are an excellent team and it is unfortunate that they are in the same division.

It has been more than 5 for Texas, USC, OSU, FSU and plenty of other teams with great recruits and the obviously great coaches that are coveted by the rant.

Why then have they not won ? Because it is bloody difficult and luck has not been on their side to aid them because other teams happen to be strong at the very same time and there is a bit of luck involved in having no injuries, right schedule, enough players with experience, pollsters recognizing the worth , etc...

The logical thing would be to recognize this uphill task and therefore enjoy the games rather than live in misery by worrying only about the title.

I agree with this. Those who are furious at anything less than undefeated national championship every year will be miserable old men some day. Even those among the greatest coaches to have ever lived only won so many. I think many of the people who are so mad are the ones who have talked so much smack that they were made to feel dumb when LSU didn't win and now they have to be mad at someone, so they are mad at CLM, when they should be mad at themselves for having their priorities and common sense all out of whack. Poor thangs.
