La Tech is taking fans. I hear they scored a lot of points against Texas A&M

Ok the jumping of the bridge and the ignoring of facts has to stop.

Does one thing, wins in November.

Does same thing, loses in January.

goes 1-1 against God, but because of peculiarities would have been better to win the second one.

If he went 0-2 you might have a point. The same point, I might add, that has been posted here 5805084759754 times. I'm glad we have some fans that are happy to run 5 guys in routes get the qb killed, turn the ball over, and lose every game. Most people want to win. Effective offense should be a goal and should be attainable at LSU. First priority is winning and if you as a fan aren't on board with that, you are missing the whole point of competition.




You guys are so effing simple minded.

I don't mean do the same thing against Texas A&M. We can run the ball 45 times against the aggies and win easliy.

I mean against Alabama you fricking morons.

We cannot do the same thing against Alabama that we have been doing for every other team. It has been proven that it doesn't against Bama.

Use your head for something besides a hat rack.

you know we've won the last two regular season matchups, right?


edit: miles actually had a pretty good gameplan against the tide last time they were in BR. but in the NC, he lacked one or just thought he could do the same thing they did two months before and win.

Actually, there is a point in there somewhere.

I will NEVER forget Les punting the ball last year in the BCS Championship with about 3 minutes left to play. Yeah, it was 4th and 9 at our 24, but we QUIT. We didn't fight like Tigers thanks to that decision. I couldn't believe it. It was the final game for all the marbles and we didn't even hope for a miracle or even try to put points on the board for pride.

That was actully embarrassing. I know I felt ripped off at that point sitting in the stands. I didn't care if Bama scored another TD if it meant we exausted all efforts and did everything we could. When it comes down to your biggest game, then creativity and absolutely giving everything there is to give is important. It ain't like the other games.

I mean sure we lost 56-6, but did you see that series where we ran an end around, a reverse pass, and a double reverse throwback. That was some creativity. What about the series where we went A-11 with no o lineman and lateraled our way to that 15 yard loss. I think the best was the fumblerooski that Muncie got strip sixed for.

Creativity score LSU 4000-24. Pop the bubbly, gentlemen.

why can't some ranters understand that some guys just need to vent their frustration. they don't want the team to lose. they just want to know that the coachingt staff 1 recognizes there is a problem 2 works to correct the problem.

i totally get what the poster is saying.

the Ole Ball Coach changed qb's last week against florida. didn't help, but he was trying. he made an effort.

this in no wise avers that miles and the staff aren't making an effort. we just don't know, because we don't hear them and we don't see them making adjustments.

It's clear you're trolling, but I'll play along b/c I'm bored at work:

They didn't "fight" that entire game. Why do it then?

I want Les to Game-plan for Alabama. The same game plan that works against West Virginia will not work against Bama.

Not to mention no one is expecting static results or different results in the instant case. I swear to goodness, you watch one episode of The Big Bang Theory and you go grab a computer.

You work on that in the spring, fall and 8 games leading up to bama.

Nope

We can beat bama handily now if we play perfect. Momentum in games like this are huge. If we can run early and get some turnovers we could blow them out but the chances of either team winning by more than 10 are slim.

Yes, is sux winning 11 games a year. Some people still butthurt about 1 game last Jan. Most fans in acroos the country would love to accomplish what LSU has since 2007, but then there is this thing called The Rant. Watch the meltdown after CLM retires, moves on, whatever. We will back to 7-8 wins a year.I'm going to enjoy the ride while we are on it, won't last forever. See the 1990"s...

TT, you are conceding the creativity battle. Tiger fans will not stand for that. Who cares if Bama gets 600, just try crazy things because WIZARD!
