Technically there aren't any negatigers. However, there are plenty of negaMiles. In fact, I don't know anyone regular here that is negative of LSU. However, there are also a shite load of Miles suck asses on the rant.

you don't seem to understand. Negatigers aren't going to spew positives here, hence the appropriately brand of "negatiger" bestowed upon such idiots.

What you called for is something rational. this does not exist on the rant. It just doesn't compute.

Amid the problems with the offense, I did think it was significant that, in the one and only offensive possession in which the game had the potential of turning in their favor and we really needed to score, we drove quickly down the field for a TD to make it 19-7 and snuff out any momentum they had gained from their TD.

I liked that, after their TD drive when it looked like we didn't really come after their freshman QB with a lot of pressure, we came after him really aggressively and forced him into making turnovers.

I thought the kickoff coverage was outstanding. I think they only got it past the 20 about two or three out of our eight kickoffs.

It was great that Jasper was money on all five FG attempts, including a 51-yarder.

While Blue's fumble bothered me, it was good to see Ridley protect the ball again.

Everything is awesome this year with the exception of HC, OC and QB.

I believe you mean, post tardis. If you're going to insult, do it right. If you just have no idea what you typed because you heard it from someone else, fine.

And yes.

The way to beat LSU is to load up on the run and make them pass. Not hard to figure out.


And yet 3 teams that were all supposed to have pretty good defenses (and picked by many to beat us) are 0 for 3!

No, I believe I called you tardicus. As in Tardicus Rex.

Because people are admitting things they are pleased with in this post, and you choose to ignore every single one of them.

Well I guess I've been reading this shite to damn long. Like I said I'm not a negatiger, but it's getting pretty frustrating watching this offense.

Oddly, for the first time in a while I really didn't have too many issues with the playcalling. The execution definitely still needs work, but there was definitely improvement. Jefferson was managed very well and kept in good positions, by and large. The second offensive drive should have ended with a TD to Toliver on a fade route - the ball was close enough that Toliver should have been able to get to it. As should have the fourth offensive drive - the third-down screen play was a perfect call, credit State for batting down the pass. If it's complete Shepard walks into the endzone.

Patrick Peterson's first interception was a perfect example of baiting a quarterback. No. 7 allowed the receiver to cut underneath him on the post, read the throw and out-jumped the guy for the play. I spent most of the fourth quarter trying to convince the wife to name our first child Patrick.

If I can throw on my Jon Gruden cliché hat, Tyrannosaurus Mathieu is going to be a lot of fun to watch over the next few years. It's not so much the athleticism that jumps out at me as some outstanding instincts. He just always seems to be in position, whether it's on defense or special teams.

Nothing like seeing a defensive end running down on your kickoff team. Praise for Barkevious Mingo.

Russell Shepard needs some work in front of the jugs machine and on his concentration. He has a tendency to turn his head up field before he has the ball secured.

LSU's average scoring drive went just 32 yards, but it's important to note that on their first drives of each half (including right after State's touchdown), the Tigers marched right down the field. That isn't to say that all offensive problems are solved. Two of those drives were extremely close to being touchdowns.

Allow me to mix some metaphors for a second - think of the offense as a slumping hitter (yes it's been a long slump) that has upgraded from striking out to making contact. If he makes that contact consistently, eventually the hits will come. If this offense can continue to move the ball, so will the touchdowns.

NC team not at full strength/close to losing game,Vand/not a powerhouse team,Miss State had five turnovers not many teams win with that. Ala,Auburn,Fla and Ark are different animals then above teams.

and the correct term for what you're trying is tardis. It's ok. You do realize that's the derivative, right? Oh well.

and I can count those posts on one hand. Don't expect this to be 10 pages of flowing positivity. That's what I'm saying. And those that do post here won't be "negatigers", it'll be some pretty rational thinkers, imo. Well...posts that are "positive".

Again, "negas" inherently aren't positive. I don't understand why this is so difficult to grasp.

Obviously you don't, it's ok, and we're walking.

I like the young talent on this team.
I like our DL, LBs, DBs, OL, RBs, WRs, TEs, and Punter/Kicker.

Have I left anyone out?

I think you also didn't read the original post. There are 100 other threads open for this type of comment.

I'll add one more R. Randle is a stud. I think he has really progressed and will continue to get better. He makes something happen when he has the ball and goes up to get the ball with great hands.

I like the move Jasper and the holder do after a made FG/PA.

I think the negatigers are really high on this team in most aspects. I don't find many hoping the team fails. Their/ my passion for perfection sometimes overshadow our posts about the good things. This thread is an opportunity for us Negatigers to post the positive but it doesn't mean we will lower our standards. I have been through the low standards at LSU and don't want us to return.

There aren't; you are not a true "NegaTiger".

A true NegaTiger would never admit to being one.

The true ones identify themselves by blasting anyone who dares to disagree with them, and hide behind such catch phrases as "he won with Saban's players" or "8-8 in SEC games since 2007", and pointing out past problems against Bama, Florida, and Ole Miss (things that may well be corrected this season).
