1/9

That was the title game, even better than your scenario. People still aren't over it and some never will be. Greatest season in the history of college football if LSU wins that game. Look at the teams they beat. People act like that team went 6-6.

While I see what you saying and agree with the facts of the team and season, that is not why people were/ are mad/ disappointed/ etc.

For some, 1/9 proved what they "knew" Les has faults, etc, etc (no need to bore you with particulars).

For others 1/9, was a chance to put a stake in the dragon's heart - 2 wins vs. Bama in a season and one was for the NC. Doing it all against all the odds and having to play/ win against they twice...of course we wanted it badly.

Those 2 can also be combined as well. Roll it all up and you basically have people that could sense all the more that could come from winning 1 more game.

...... Lastly, you were also struck by the WAY we played that game... and NO one has a good excuse for that.

====== 1/9 will live until we bury it below other great wins.
