" you're blinded by your loyalty to miles....."

No, I'm not blinded by anything. The LSU team of 2006 threw the ball, The team of 2007 threw the ball, the team of 2008 threw the ball even though they probably shouldn't have, the team of 2012 threw the ball, the team of 2013 threw the ball, and the team threw the ball sat. night.

It's pretty plain ,to anyone not blinded by their dislike of miles , that when LSU has a quarterback the staff has confidence in, they become more diversified and throw the ball more.

As for as my loyality to miles is concerned, he is the football coach at LSU. What college football coach do you suggest I be loyal to and why is being loyal to the most successful coach in history a problem for you or anyone else?

You have a Les Miles tattoo on your forearm. Go ahead and admit it.

If Miles could turn the team around...I'm behind him 100%. He's a great recruiter and has a winning record better than most. Below par coach considering the talent he gets. Not so sure he's capable of doing it. The biggest problem I see is getting a good coach that can bring in the talent he does to replace him. With that said...careful what you wish for.

You really think we win 10-11? Wow. We won't escape November with a winning record for that month. We could have 4 losses to our biggest opponents.

I am on TD almost daily because I love LSU

Football is the main pull...

so I support LSU 365 ...

Miles, is Miles...

I am trying very hard to enjoy the team on offense

1st half last week was much "improved"

2nd half "not what we wanted"

You focus your loyalty on the program rather than the man.
I never mentioned passing the ball specifically, but since you brought it up, we've sucked at it recently (with the exception of 2013).

The only way miles survives this season is if he wins the SEC and/or goes 10-2 or better. Less than that he's toast

We have the second most wins in the sec in the last 5 years. We are not bama. Our administration does not go all in on football.some of you need to deal with this.

This is why we are not only not as good as Alabama, but declining from even that modest point. The prevailing mindset among too many of our fans is that it's perfectly OK not to be as good as Alabama. The problem with that attitude is that if you are OK not being as good as Alabama, you soon wind up not being as good as other teams who don't share that loser mentality and constantly strive to become as good as Alabama. You can cherry pick whatever time frame you like to make your point, but it is becoming clear that Ole Miss and Arkansas are at the very least catching up to us and arguably passing us (Ole Miss especially). Texas A&M is also making strides. When you concede the race before it even starts, it's not only impossible to win, it gets increasingly more difficult even to finish 2nd, which we have now not done three straight years and likely heading to a fourth.

If you're not getting better you're getting worse and eventually you get passed up.

Accepting mediocrity just isn't entertaining.

The man has the program ranked # 3 for wins in all of college football since his arrival. The man has the program ranked at #2 in all of the SEC for wins since 05. The man even has the program ranked at #2 in the SECW for wins since 2014.

The man has guided the program to the most successful period in LSU football history. It's for those reasons that I choose not to cut and run every time LSU stumbles, but others can do as they wish.

Yet nothing to show for it.

Nearly avg bowl record and have you seen LSU vs the SEC west the last few seasons? Not even competitive..

So just keep settling with being non competitive and dropping 3 games every November??

Imagine what we could be with an actual above avg coach.. The sky is the limit.. but you are content with the overall number of wins.. even thought it amounts to nothing.

I rather chase championships when we bring in this type of talent.

We are like top 3-5 in recruiting over the past 4 seasons or so.. and the others, FSU, Alabama, and Ohio St have ALL won a national championship.. we have't.. this is our year to and if we don't.. we need a new direction because we are as talented as the elite who have won.

With the talent on this team, one loss is too much and unacceptable.

You are the same kind of idiot that thinks Saban must suck because he lost a game or two to Ole Miss. Now let's hear about how it was supposed to be sarcastic.

No one said it was ok.
People realize that they dont make decisions about lsu football.

What? Their 2nd best team in a decade (2014) lost to our worst team in a decade.

Also ole miss lost to memphis.
Arky catching up to lsu?

They lost to toledo last year. They have finished in last place of the west
1 time in 3 years.

No one is conceding. Lsu DECISION MAKERS ( the fans acceptance is irrelevant) dont go all in on football like Bama.
