Arkansas didn't have the week off before the LSU game. Arkansas won a wild OT game at Ole Miss the week before coming in and kicking LSUs arse.
good ol Mike, moving goalposts again...

The Ole Miss this year was the next week after Arkansas and all the negativity just spilled over. This is simply bad scheduling.
No, it's simply bad coaching.

Just curious...do we have good coaching games and bad coaching games? Or is it strictly rantard and all bad coaching? Did miles used to be a good coach...or was all those big wins just fools gold? Did he simply forget how? Quit caring? Or does he just lack talent now in certain areas? Take a step back and take off your negatiger hat and give an objective answer? We agree he hasn't adapted his offense to the talent level or lack thereof at qb. Serious question.

Well he is approaching 70

I give Miles a pass for not being able to beat Saban for the most part. He's the most dominant coach of our lifetime who has an axe to grind with LSU and gets his players even more prepared then normal to play LSU. Not a whole lot of other coaches could win in that situation either.
However, the problem is we aren't consistently beating clearly less talented teams who are better coached and better prepared. If you can't see or don't believe that, then I'll never be able to convince you. The Miles culture has gone stale. Success is predicated on outmuscling your opponents, which works sometimes. But this method doesn't develop QBs and when plan A fails, we've all seen what happens. The team mentally and physically quit for 3 weeks after Bama and this happens year after year. Losing to Bama and not winning championships, is not a fireable offense in my eyes. Not being able to prepare and motivate your team for a whole season, is.

Wretched offense, bad QB play. Extremely poor motivation of the team after the Bama loss.
We all know the schedule. November is our season - all of November, not just one game. It's the coach's job to get our guys ready to play each week. And the listless performances against Arky and Ole Miss ( and a pretty weak one too against A&M) is on the coaches as well.
I don't mind losing games if were well prepared and compete. That's part of sports, especially in the brutal SEC west. But we looked woefully unprepared and barely put up a fight. That's on the coaches.

Can you list these losses and explain how the teams that beat us are clearly less talented?

"Some LSU fans". ?? Not all of us.

That is a pretty spot on assessment. LSU absolutely looked unprepared in the three losses and only marginally better vs TAMU. We seem to get worse in November while Arky seems to be getting better.
LSU still had a shot at a major bowl after the Bama loss and LF7 was still in the Heisman discussion. But the way we fell apart was embarrassing.

Although I think most people will say their primary displeasure originated from the two games following that one.
You do understand that Old Miss is 2-0 vs. Bama in
their last 2 match ups and that the great Saban was only 3-2 in his yrs. at LSU vs. Ark.?
While disappointing and a troubling yellow flag blowing in the wind, hardly 2 shameful L's requiring a 111-32 coaches departure. imo

We lose to Arkansas because we are beaten and morally dejected after the Alabama loss while Arkansas is rested with two weeks to prepare and sky high for the game.

Tell yourself whatever you need to make yourself happy. But the way we played vs E Michigan, Syracuse and W Kentucky showed we had a highly mediocre team by SEC West standards.

Call me when he quits being humiliated by bielema.
