I've had some time to digest last night...

It's hard to make it to games when you're literally menstruating all the time.

Our ticket are in 636.
We won't miss you

Prepare to get absolutely SLAMMED.
But it's LSU Groundhog Day for many and people will vote by being less enthusiastic about the team.
Every game I go to is a $400 dollar investment and eleven hours of my time.
So it's logical that some people will decide to bail.

Don't leave, dog.

OP:

Just give it up. All of your observations are completely justified and valid. However, your entire perspective is quite wrong. Let me tell you why.

Your observations and comments would be completely on point if LSU were a pro football team. LSU is NOT a pro football organization. It's not run like an NFL franchise. The expectations are not the same as one would see for an NFL team.

LSU football is an amateur football program where college kids play football in exchange for a free education and enough national exposure to give them a good shot at playing for the NFL one day.

Stop thinking of LSU football as some kind of pro football endeavor, because in the NFL, each team has one and only one goal -- to win the Superbowl. When an owner loses confidence in his Head Coach's ability to win the SB, the HC is fired.

The LSU football program does not exist solely to win National Championships. There are many other competing reasons and purposes for its existence, such as, mentoring young athletes, providing a football team that brings students and alumni together during the fall, representing LSU well and making money. Those are the main purposes of the LSU football program.

Any championships or awards are nice to have and very welcome, but, these accolades are ancillary indicia of success in football competition, but they are not indicators of how well LSU football does in those other, JUST AS IMPORTANT areas. Those other main areas that I mention are just as important, but, there are no trophies for mentoring a student, visiting a sick kid, being a respected and beloved part of the LSU community, and so forth.

So, stop expecting LSU football to be something it is not. It's an amateur sporting endeavor that represents a State University, not a pro football franchise.

There are a few college football programs that have the same demands that are placed on an NFL team, but, LSU is not one of those programs.

I get what you are saying but I think using the word mediocrity and mediocre is wrong

BTW transfer your tickets to me, I will take them

is not what I expected of our once elite program.

Um, before Saban arrived, LSU was not only not elite, it was an automatic 3-6 loss annually program for a 100 years--and most of those seasons were with 11 or fewer games. And one natl championship.

Saban created excitement at LSU and Miles maintaining that excitement for a few years created expectations, such as fans calling LSU an "elite program." Meanwhile our competitors are quietly upgrading their HCs, and we're beginning to notice the results.

Miles will be gone within two years. So will Freeze and Mullen and Bielema and Saban. The new SECw is like the NFL. Even the Super Bowl champs lose games.

Within three years, we will have an eight-team playoff.

Geaux Tigers!

I don't blame you. This program is a joke.
