So only a blowout win reflects positively on CEO.


I didn't say that. Just win the game on the road. But winning it isn't some huge feather in the cap. If you think it is a huge feather in the cap then we've lowered standards here.

People want the win to mean as much positively as a loss would mean negatively and it never has worked like that, not for contending teams.

it isn't a 'feather in your cap' but it is a statement when you win on the road vs Mississippi St.

You're really taking Coach O getting hired very hard. 2016 must have been a really hard time for you.

The last 3 years LSU is 14-10 in conference play; never higher than 3rd place in the West. By comparison, over the same 3 year span MSU is 13-11.

The last 5 years LSU is 25-15 in conference play with a 2nd place SECW finish (5 years ago).

Winning a conference game is not a lowering of standards.

Only here on the rant would winning a conference game be a lowering of standards, moving the bar, or goalposts on roller skates. And we all know why that mentality exists.

A lowering of standards is saying oh well, win some lose some or tolerating being, at best, the 6th best team in a 14 team league.
