Why is it we have games like Arkansas or Ole Miss? and last year was the most talented starting roster I think ive seen at LSU but we still had those games.
You must have just started following LSU recruiting success.
From 2000-2005, LSU had #1, #2, #4 Rivals class and one season with less than 3 losses.
There was trouble with Ole Miss every year, close scrapes and losses with less talented OSU, Arky, UK,a bad UF team, UAB, Troy and underwhelming games vs a couple Div 2 teams.
With some of those recruits, I endured 30pt skulldraggings at the hands of UF, UGA, and Bama that I've never seen under Miles, even '08.

I think some rantards are too young to know, or too old to remember.

I don't think you're accurately framing the '00-'05 years.
- We didn't struggle with OM in '05.
- Is it really fair to expect recruiting results to show up right away? The '00 and '01 seasons showed improvement all the way to the end even if there were setbacks along the way.
- When did we lose to an inferior Arky team? They won the SEC west in '02. We stomped 'em in '01, '03, and '04.
