With the current state of our beloved Tigers football team, I can't even guess how the players feel and face the realities after the last two losses. Most of them were elite players out of high schools who used to winning and being admired by their fans. They must be very proud playing on national TVs almost every week during the season and are probably dreaming to have a career playing in NFL after college.
But with high expectation to appear for the first time in college football playoff after 7-0 record, suddenly they have to face the reality that the team is actually only mediocre; in the last two games they got beaten in all three fronts: offense, defense and special team. They probably wanted to rely on the coaches for guidance in overcoming the mess, but it seems the coaches (as CLM admitted) were as shocked as the players and may not be able to do much with only two or three games left. And unfortunately, moral supports from the Tigers nation is currently at low (or lowest?) point.

It's simple: the players give 100% and it shows.....they want to play for CLM, OR if they play lethargic and it shows, they're ready for new, creative leadership.

I gotta say I love the players, but I have little sympathy for them if they wanna jab at the fans. These guys weren't even born while I was sitting in my car in the driveway every Saturday night trying to get radio signal just to listen to the game. My emotions for LSU run deeper than theirs ever will.

I'd say they feel confused as hell...

they worked their asses off all day every day since last year, compiled a 7-2 record with a chance to go to the sugar bowl....and everyone who is not on the team seems to have kicked them to the curb as a total failure....

who could feel good in that situation?....

Perhaps that is part of the problem. Complacency and comfort with the status quo. If a hungry, eager coach came in I'd bet the mollycoddling days would be over. No more laughing and joking on the sidelines while we're half-assing the effort.

Hopefully most of them are thinking, "I have to quit getting my arse whipped by my opposite on these other teams!"

I'd think that some feel like they've never lost, and some feel that they'll never win again. But they're just feelings, wo o o o o feelings, and they may never come again.
