Does it explain the extreme and delusional overreactions on this board? I don't know.

whether it explains it or not there is no question our fan base has some very vocal members that indeed overreact. they are the most critical fanbase I know of. hell winning a game doesn't make them happy unless it's a blow out.

Auburn played for a national championship last year. They look like they will be in a position to play for another one. We have a young team which will improve this season. Do adjustments need to be made?

---

I strongly think adjustments will be made by the coaches. BUT these fans won't notice them and will criticize them too. what this team needs is a field general. we don't have one. MOST of the time it takes a year or two for a QB to get good esp in the SEC west. our fans seem to ONLY SEE one or two QB's across the country that have progressed far enough to look great. the A&M qb is used as an example all the time here. of course, he didn't look so hot against MSU did he?

But your self worth shouldn't be based on the performance of a college football team.

some LSU fans are really bad at this. but so are fans of other college teams and pro teams as well. i'm sure books have been written about it. it is sad.
