What is acceptable to you in 2018 (football)?

Why even start this type thread when you already have it figured out.....

Same as any other year: Competing for a west division title.

2-10 should be able to satisfy most LSU fans.

B if the offense has a pulse would be satisfying s I could Argue that we are moving forward

With the schedule that we have, 3 losses is acceptable if they come from a combo Miami, Auburn, UGA, or Bama.

Just to clarify, acceptable means O won’t lose his job not that I’d necessarily be excited by that outcome.

10-2 or better would get me excited. 9-3 with losses being “good losses” (I hate that term) would keep me off the ledge.

F) forget the record for the moment;
I want a strong, well-coached game that is at least competitive with Miami, where the QB is sharp, decisive and accurate, the WRs get open and make plays, the running game is effective, the o-line is solid provides consistent protection. The defense is in position, does not get pushed around, doesn't let people run open. The kicking game is a FG lock within 50 yds and results in touchbacks, and doesn't shank punts or allow huge runbacks.
There should never be a question whether LSU should be on the same field as Miami, talent-wise. Ideally, there should be a question whether Miami should be on the field with LSU.

And then, I want the team to look a little better each game.

As I said, don't even discuss W-L record at this point. The Auburn game last year was a great comeback, but was huge example of up&down play. Tennessee also, for half the game LSU looked like crap. I WANT a team that plays solid and pretty mistake-free from start to finish, and if they lose, the other team earns it.

Get that from a team with a soph (or redshirt freshman) QB, let the chips fall where they may, and then enter the next season TRULY thinking LSU is back at the top level of football.

Anything below A) equals “we should have kept Les Miles.”

Miles' last four years at LSU:

2013: 10-3
2014: 8-5
2015: 9-3
2016: 2-2

That comes out to a winning percentage of 69% (nice!), but if you take out 2013, it goes down to 65%.

Orgeron's first two years:

2016: 6-2
2017: 9-4

That's a winning percentage of 71%. If he finishes 2018 with 3 or fewer losses, it will be an improvement over Miles' recent years.

This year will tell us a lot about the direction of the program.

Just to piss you off
