Complaining about this LSU victory is just being an infernal gripe.

Complaining about LSU beating Louisiana Tech in the way they did is just being an infernal gripe, which I am not.

Exhale: LSU withstands punches from Louisiana Tech for hard-fought win at Tiger Stadium

Thomas Williams - Developing a college football team is an uncertain work of art in progress because the people playing the game are still young men. So, of course, I am still very thrilled that our LSU football team is still undefeated after the first four college football game against the very good college football team that they have already played. Why should I feel blue because they are not like the pro football players when I totally recognize that this is still a college sport and not professional football players playing for money.
So believe me when I am telling you that I am just as happy about Ed Oregon 2018 LSU football team just as much as I did before the 38 to 21 LSU victory over Louisiana Tech.

the problem is that we have to compare our production and results to Alabama, who hasn't had a game like this

Or it's recognition that playing that is not playing to a championship standard

It's just annoying to see LSU constantly play these games - and it isn't just an O thing. LSU played half-assed under Miles as well (see Troy, Tulane, Louisiana Tech).
Also, considering last season's Troy embarrassment, LSU fan's have a reason to "gripe" when we up a mere field goal against Louisiana Tech in the second half.

We don't if we are accepting that we will never overtake them. If we hope to dethrone them, then yes they're the standard like it or not

I'm not annoyed at the game, I'm annoyed that the staff thinks they can take it easy in these games and not scheme to beat their opponent. They count on our talent being better than theirs and just winning head to head match ups, meanwhile the opponent its scheming against our weaknesses. They are essentially asking the players to play with one hand behind their back. They also don't seem very willing to make adjustments, Deculus was struggling all night and I don't know if they ever gave him any help.

Yes, but then he eventually got his teams out of that “easy game” mentality which we can’t seem to do.

so we're just settling for 2-3 losses every year? never winning titles?

Fine with mediocrity huh....

No, we're concerned because we play much better teams later this season and this kind of performance won't get it done.
4-0 is nice, but remember we started 2015 7-0 but we had concerns about our offense. Then when we hit the meat of our schedule, we lost 3 straight, each by double digits.
This season looks eerily familiar (without having Fournette in the backfield, however).

It’s all about your expectations as a fan. Do you want LSU to complete for the playoffs year in and year out? If so, you must compare us to the top 2 or 3 in terms of talent, coaching, and execution. In my opinion we are woefully lacking on at least 2 of those 3 compared to Alabama, Georgia, and Clemson.
If your expectation as a fan is that we win most, lose a few, and get a chance to play late December to a similar mid level Big 10 school in a bowl sponsored by a fast food chain, we’ll go ahead and high 5 each other because we’re in great shape.

This is understandable but for people to melt over it is annoying in and of it's self.

I am an old fighting Tiger, but I remember when LSU used to gang tackle ( see Bama) now one guy tackles or 2! Also I thought we had some good receivers, that hasn't happened yet! 4 drops last night would have led to points, but they all seem to have butter fingers!!!

The problem is we have yet to play a complete game and it will take complete games to even have a chance of winning the West.

So far we have been weak also. I hope he will pump them up from now on !

2015 defense was bad
2015's offense was one-dimensional, and when we play teams that matched up physically on the line of scrimmage, we had nothing to counter that.
But it worked against the first 7 teams on our schedule, which were the weaker teams.
Again, merely looking at our record doesn't tell the whole story.
