me too...that -17 yards they had on plays inside LSU's 30 was very impressive. There weren't any mis-matches on either side outside of the QB advantage for Bama that night. Bama will probably be around a 5 point favorite this time around, and deservedly so.

yep...take posters like DUKKEV on here.....last week he was telling us how there was NO WAY LSU could beat Ole Miss....Of course, he hoped he was wrong (which was a lie)....you are right, very good post.....the more people like Burt Reynolds, Fat Bastard, CPTBENGAL, Dukke, red, etc...are proven wrong...the more they spew their garbage. Amazing that the Monday after a big win....SOME are on here bashing Jennings...it is just unbelievable. The guy played really good and did exactly what they wanted from him for the majority of the game......yet they focus on the bad plays.

You were at a game several years ago and draw conclusions about how we will match up to BAMA this year.
One of us is a little confused, and I believe it is you.
My memory is just fine. BAMA is a very winnable game for us. It does matter what frame of mind our team is in though.

Probably, at least they have a real quarterback though.
Again, bama gave up more rushing yards to Tenn that ole miss florida and oklahoma combined. Bama on the road this yearn is a very average team.

They all post about how good bama is more than most bama fans on here. pretty sad. Nothing else to add to the board but bama praise.
Like this thread here.. Did OP really think this was fresh information or a riveting topic.
And now the name calling and bodily harm threats begin

Not sure how anyone could come to this conclusion. The only positive is that Ole Miss didn't score more points.

Do you people even watch football, or do you just throw shite out there? Bama is not very good this year. Their signature win is a 59-0 drubbing of an Aggie team in totall collapse mode, BFD. They lost to the only decent opponent they've played so far.

The more Les wins, the angrier they get. Because they have been here for ten years saying "Miles the Moron can't win doing x, y, z" and he proves them wrong again and again. But rather than think, hm, maybe you can win with below average QB play, or two tight end sets, or whatever the idee fixe of the week is, they just double down on their (objectively incorrect) opinions and get angrier and angrier because reality is not conforming with their preconceptions.
First of all, not everyone who shares the view that production from the QB position needs to be improved has been a Miles basher. Some fans happen to not swing wildly from one extreme to the other or want to be in any camp. Most fans who want a change at QB want to see it happen because they think it will BENEFIT the team the same way finally benching Welter for Beckwith has benefitted the team.
As noted above, we are now at the point that we are going to ride Jennings the rest of the year barring injury. But unless we see vast improvement over the last three games, I certainly hope and pray that the coaches take a fresh look at the position in the Spring. Because Jennings current state of play is not sufficient to win a championship in 2015. And trying to argue that I'm wrong in this view because we won a 10-7 game in which our defense dominated and Jennings was a non-factor is just as boneheaded as it would have been to argue that the program is in demise if Wallace completes that last pass for a TD.

You are missing the point. Oh well, ill jump on board with the mindless sunshine pumpers
If this ranter says we will win then it must be true

Because we don't think LSU is gonna CRUSH Bama 41-0???? YOU are the worst poster on this site cause you have ZERO sense of reality
there is no way you are an older guy with your constant knee-jerk tendencies. I don't think you are very smart either (not flaming, just honest)...but if you are older...then you really are a special poster.
Who the fk said 41-0? Not a gd poster said that. What we have said is that bama sucks on the road this year, and the secondary is suspect, and the run game gave up a lot of yards to a ten team that Ole Miss completely shut down.
I am the one that doesn't have a sense of reality????? Good god man. After Auburn, you said LSU would go 5-7 at best, and you assured us that we could not beat Ole Miss this past weekend....while I tried to tell you they haven't faced an offense like LSU's yet.....if you see things so well, then tell me why the fk are you wrong so often???? Your predictions fkn blow on here, and the entire board knows it....yet you call out a poster on here that has been absolutely spot on.......you want to know something dick head....we beat bama....but lose to Arkansas.......finish 9-3, win a bowl game, and finish 10-3.....so go frick yourself with your negative attitude and swallow for saban some more.

I guarantee you if that had happened, Rantards would be trumpeting that very thing from the rooftops.

you don't think Bama will be favored? For the record I wasn't one of the idioses on here proclaiming the Kentucky line was the steal of the century and the Ole Miss line was way too low.

I'm sure they will. Everyone knows the offense needs to be capable of doing more than it's capable of doing now. Harris will get a fair shot in the Spring and Fall

8/16 is fine when you rush for 300+ and your defense holds them under 20 points. Throw in good special teams play. That's lsu football

Really............................? ?
In 2011 Jefferson / Lee went 9-17 with two interceptions AT BRYANT DENNY, and LSU won that game 9-6. WTF are you talking about? ?
Fact, LSU had their best season ever in 2011. They weren't the best team on the field that night. Let's go off of stats..
Total Yds: UA-295 LSU-239
Passing: UA-199 LSU-91
Rushing: UA: 96 LSU-148
We're pretty much the same on everything else except field goals.
Hell all they had to do was make a field goal.
Also that was the fricking years ago! Move on!
And y'all still think that we were the better team..

What's your point? That a balanced offense is generally better than a one-dimensional one? Wow, earth breaking analysis there.
I'm no sunshine pumper. I gave us 50/50 shot of victory against Ole Miss.
Now, after seeing the game against OM, i once again give us 50/50 shot at victory. The spineless harbingers of DOOM are no more accurate than I am.
We all have an opinion, I choose not to quake in my boots because the other team is called BAMA.
ranter OUT.

Agreed. Which is why I made the point. This is not a sunshine pumper v. negatiger issue. This is a question about whether we need a better QB (which I think has to be the general consensus) and whether that better QB is currently sitting on our bench wearing #6 (more open for debate but put me in the camp that says yes).
It's very annoying to see some post that because of the W all is well and equally as bad (if not more) to see people earlier predict the Decline after a couple of early season losses to quality opponents.
I love my Tigers and we are a solid QB away from being a very dangerous team.

quote:I agree that 50% completion and two interception is not a great performance. However, I don't think that's the source of any optimism.
Love all the optimism coming from people cause it's always great when we beat up on little brother.
But if you sit here and tell me that we'll beat Bama going 8-16 with two picks you're sorely b mistaken.
I think the optimism comes from the fact that the QB performance was enough to keep Ole Miss from stacking the box; thus, LSU's running game flourished.
I think the optimism comes from improved passing by the QB despite the two interceptions.
I think the optimism comes from increased diversity in the passing attack both in targets and routes.
I think the optimism comes from increased optimism by the OC in calling more diverse passing plays.
I think 50% completions and two interceptions will make it more difficult to beat Bama. However, I am optimistic that Jennings will perform much better. He's improving. Mett's biggest improvement in 2012 came during the two weeks of practice before the Bama game. Jefferson's biggest improvement in 2010 came during the two weeks before the Bama game.
In short, I'm not going to sit here and tell you that we'll beat Bama going 8-16 with two picks because I don't think Jennings will go 8-16 with two picks; in particular, he won't throw two picks.
