re: Former LSU players had high praise for Coach Orgeron and his staff

And what’s incredibly hilarious and ironic is you were on the SECr today crowing about LSU being robbed of the A&M game

How is this “hilarious and ironic”?

How is the A&M game relevant to the Arkansas and Florida games?

I really think you should actually read and follow the conversation.

I totally agree that we could have (and should have been) 11-1 in regular season this year. I think LSU is better than A&M and Florida. I’m simply pointing out that you can’t say the Florida game could have easily been a win for us without also acknowledging that the Arkansas game could have been a loss. We turned the ball over in the Florida game because we still had to attempt to make plays to get first downs in order to run the clock out. We also had to continue to make plays to get first downs to run the clock out in the Arkansas game. Had we turned the ball over while making those plays (like we did against Florida), Arkansas was close enough score wise that they could have won the game.

You just don’t want to admit this because Arkansas was terrible and Florida was at least decent. It’s a “bad look” to say you “could have lost” to a bad team whereas it’s a better look to say “we could have beaten” a decent team.

I’m still not sure why this is such a hard concept for you to grasp. My only explanation for this is that you will disagree with anything and everything that is considered negative about Orgeron and that’s just sad. It’s sad that many of you are bigger fans of the coach than you are the team.

Nah

It was 24-3 going into the 4th

Yeah. I'm not seeing this one either.

It's relevant to LSU "almost going 6-6" which was is what sparked this whole conversation

in the sense that any game you can theoretically lose, sure. was it in the same stratosphere as Florida or A&M? No.

You don't want to admit it wasn't because you've dug in too far at this point. This whole thing started because some moron said we were almost 6-6. We finished 10-3. I conceded Auburn could have gone either way. So even if you include Arkansas, which I think is ridiculous, there's still 2 more 50/50 games to come up with. They aren't there.

There's nothing to grasp. Arkansas was a blowout that looked a hell of a lot closer at the end than it should have. Like it has been said many times and many times ignored by you, we tried not to score, making the game look even closer than it actually was.

The Florida and A&M games quite literally came down to the wire and were highly contested games throughout. As also stated plenty of times, at no point did Arkansas have the ball with the chance to win. Stop trying to compare the Florida loss with the Arkansas win. In no way were they comparable games, so no one doesn't have to take that game into consideration when saying LSU should have won the A&M and/or Florida games.

I know exactly what your argument is, my man. The problem is, i don't agree with it and won;t. I think you are wrong, and that will not change. It has nothing to do with whether I "grasp" what you're saying. Believe me, I do. I just find your logic and argument to be incorrect. Sorry.

Apparently, LSU scored too when they chose Orgeron as their head coach.

I've been pleasantly surprised by how things are going with Orgeron and his staff. Turned out to be a really great hire instead of going for some reach after missing on Fisher (who I never really wanted here anyway) and Herman. I think it would have turned out well with Fleck as well but he was more of a risky hire but has a lot of upside as well. Anyway, I love what Orgeron has done and the way he is bringing the program back to relevance once again. It is good times being an LSU football fan once again after being on a steady decline after the 1/9/12 debacle.

Never underestimate a negatigers need to be right.

These losers can’t help themselves.
Low IQ and low self esteem individuals.
Internet mess board posting is serious business.

They still pop off about propaganda and sycophants. Just ridiculous.

One former player, Dominic Cooper who was coached by both Saban and Miles, made it clear that Coach O and his staff are more talented than Miles and his assistants.

Well that's certainly reassuring to hear.

Hope we have a playoff appearance next year to back up that lofty praise.

He noted that LSU was picked to finish 6-6 in 2018, but instead, LSU's players came very close to finishing the season at 12-1.

The next task for LSU coaches, he noted, is to prove that they can take on the big boys of Alabama, these former players feel very confident that LSU will.

Seriously. At what point can we quit all this propaganda bullshite?

Well, next year LSU will be picked to finish 10-2 or 11-1. We will see how Orgeron and his staff handle the high expectations.
