Oh, you think it was bad losing to a team with Malzahn running the option with two NFL backs, one of which should have won the heisman, in triple OT?

Just wait.

And they had a guy named CASEY DICK as their QB.

I remember being so discouraged after that game because I just knew our national championship chances were over. Thankfully, I was wrong! :-)

3rd in nation with a beat up defense last half of year.


Gave up 37 to Kentucky, 34 to a shitty bama team, and 50 to non ranked Arkansas team.

Just looked it up they were ranked 17th in team defense from what I’m looking at

It was a great team and they won a national championship but there were some games in which they gave up points

Losing to Mississippi State by 30 was much more frustrating for me.

To be honest, at the time, that Arkansas loss was way more frustrating and depressing because the whole stadium thought we had just blown our national title hopes at home in the regular season finale against a 7-4 team. Getting blown out by State sucked hard, but the majority of fans didn't have very high expectations heading into last season under Coach O (we didn't expect to lose by 30 to State though either).

Dorsey was never the same after the white thug from Auburn cheapshotted his knees.

Sometimes is was really frustrating, like 2007 Arkansas. Sometimes it was really exciting, like 2007 Florida.

Yes, Miles could frustrate the hell out of you, but normally came out on top and we were generally in the mix every season. Things felt stable for over a decade with NS and Miles.

Post 1/9/12, Miles wasn’t the same coach and the program began a slide that continues to this point, unless the current team demonstrates great resolve in the face of a tough schedule.

If you are being honest, things have not approached anything close to the stability and success the program had from 2001-2011.

Everybody has an opinion on Ed O and where he takes or fails to take the program. That’s on him and all the O pumping in the world won’t change the measuring stick in evaluating whether or not he gets the job done.

In the greater context, I would take losses like the Arkansas game in realization of where the program stood at that time versus the current uncertainty.

This is what you are thinking about less than 2 weeks before the season starts? A game 11 years ago?

Not nearly as frustrating as Troy and MSU.
What's your next topic, UAB?
Quit trying to deflect from the fact LSU's present coach has little chance of achieving the same success.
Miles and Saban won at a better clip than Ed ever will, deal with it.

Not nearly as frustrating at losing to Troy and getting blown out by Moo State by 30 points.
