Any SEC win is HUGE and it's the toughest conference to win in week after week.
Unfortunately , many LSU "fans" disrespect our opponents not named Alabama and by virtue of that minimize any LSU victory.
you think an ole miss team missing six starters and at one point playing a freshman walk on shoudl stay on the field with our offense?

Not a single poster in this thread has posted any supporting evidence of a decline
Wrong I posted
lost 3/4 bowl games
strong chance of a 3rd (3 loss season since 08)
strong chance of 2nd (4 loss season since 08)

Yes, buddy, that is mediocre.

Well, you are entitled to use your crystal ball any way you see fit, however, 10-11 wins is still possible.
I would entertain the decline theory if we failed to win 10 games for more than one season at a time.
A decline has not been proven in this thread.
LSU has been extremely consistent for over a decade.

So we have similar talent to the best team and we shite the bed yearly. that satisfies you?

Second most wins in the nation the last decade and most wins in the SEC during that time.
How many national titles does Bama have?? I rest my case. Win all you want. If you don't get the hardware, who gives a shite.

I lost a lot of my passion for LSU football last night. There are three things I just can't abide about this program anymore.
3. It doesn't appear to me that this team has a whole lot of heart. They have athletes, to be sure, but what built LSU up from the smoking wreck that was the Curley years was guys like Gabe Northern, Todd McClure, Rodney Reed, Trev Faulk, Jacob Hester...guys who didn't have top-level NFL talent but played their asses off anyway and used smarts and heart to beat the other guy. I can't point to anybody who strikes me as that kind of player on this team - as evidence, Lamin Barrow is wearing No. 18 and I can't think of one play he's made that would remind anybody of the previous No. 18's.
2. Third and Chavis. I know the guy is a good defensive coordinator and I don't argue with his resume, but I can't stand watching somebody like Ole Miss convert third downs at will on their way to a 14-play drive to win the game. This happens more often than not in a close game and it's painful to watch. Maybe you guys can stomach watching your team bleed out slowly in a prevent defense; I have no use for it.
1. Quite simply, I can no longer abide the annual laydown against Ole Miss. It's a disgrace. That team could be down to walkons and they'll treat the LSU game as the Super Bowl. LSU can't be bothered to even show up, even in games they win. And they win anyway most of the time, but it's a disgraceful, honorless kind of winning. Even if somebody had made a play to save that game last night it still would have been a disgrace of a game. So while I'll watch them play and maybe even go to the games, I'm done living vicariously through LSU. The payoff just isn't there for me anymore. And I don't have any use for Miles and his $4.6 million-a-year mediocrity anymore; spending that kind of money on the failure to win championships strikes me as classic public-sector style waste, which I abhor.

I was disgusted, angered and shocked last night.
We should not lose that game...EVER.
But we did. It happened.
Still is not evidence of a decline. It's one game.

Top 25 will be a memory in about 6 weeks if we do not beat AL and/or AtM

losing 2 to 3 games a year and not winning titles when especially bama is, is not elite at all.

technically anywhere from 6 to 11 wins is possiible. I thought about it and laid out how i think we will do in each game. You just keep saying we're going to do it. I hope we do. I honeslty hope we do. Like really bad want us to. But all signs point to we won't.

It's not just straight line wins either. It's who we lose to, how we lose, etc.

why would you be happy with consistency if it equals mediocracy?
