The often predicted demise of LSU...it's BS

Year after year, the talking heads and our opponents' fanbases predict the demise of LSU, and year after year, LSU - with talent and coaching, proves the CFB intelligentsia wrong.
I trust our coaches - frankly our excellent assistant coaches - to correct bad technique, identify the best players and put us in a position to win. They failed in that regard against MS State - they know this. The skins are on the wall, they will get us pointed in the right direction. LSU is not going anywhere.
At the end of the season, there are going to be several teams capable of winning a championship, but with 2 or 3 losses, because the SECW is so stout this year. I'm stoked about it and I'm excited to see it play out. This weekend will be epic can potentially cataclismic.
After the battle for the SECW, the SECCG and the CFB Playoff will pale in competitive comparison.

It really seems like Miles strategy is to play football like Muhammed Ali boxes... letting himself get cornered, playing rope-a-dope. The other team keeps lashing out and seems to be scoring, but very rarely can they finish LSU under Miles; most teams get frustrated, run out of steam, then LSU knocks them out.

Well, if this team finishes 5th or 6th in the division, the decline could be there. The rest of the SEC has caught up and looks to be passing LSU by. Guys like Sumlin put QB after QB in his system and they continue to put up 300-400 yard passing games week after week, stretching back to his Houston days... Now why, i ask, Can't Les provide a more stable, consistent QB position at a premiere school like LSU? Doesn't have to be 500 yard passing games, just ok play might keep LSU competitive. However, with the Defense so lackluster nowadays, just "average" at the QB spot may not be enough.

In my original post I should have added that a good 40% of our fan base (more than that if you consider the Rant our representative of our fanbase, but I digress...) have been predicting the same demise. Every time we lose, it's an "I told you so moment" or "You still in love with Miles?" moment...
More often than not (a lot more often than not), it's a "we are winning in spite of Miles" comment after we beat whoever or win unexpectedly. Frankly, I expect our team to win every weekend. It's just a better outlook during my favorite time of year.
I don't love Miles, but I've come to embrace his approach and I have confidence in him and his staff. Miles really has had some WTF moments, but by and large, he's the fricking man.
Ready to bro down.

saban gone. after all, he is responsible for the success at LSU over the last 9 years. w/o saban LSU has NEVER been good. the "magic" he put on our program is just about worn out, so the decline is inevitable. saban is the only coach in America worth a shite.

Well.. I don't want to be the negative one, but based on one SEC game we are in real danger of finishing last in the West. When was the last time that happened?
But that's one game.. And we're a completely different and better team under Harris.. So there is potential to do well.
It'll be a.. year.. that's for sure..
But we aren't about to fade into obvlivion anytime soon, at least.

LSU will be fine and I'm excited about our young talent.
We are going to finish at 8-4 though and this board is going to be on meltdown mode like it was a Curly Hallman type of season.
