Kiffin seemed very confident and relaxed during his radio show tonight...

Getting the Ole Miss game behind them is going to do wonders for this team.

I agree. That was an absolute circus that I can't ever remember LSU experiencing in my 40+ years as a fan. This week has felt much more like a normal football week.

He kept grabbing Chris Blair’s shoulder too. Never seen him that relaxed in his 10 months here

I've rewatched the game twice now just for my own amusement and out of boredom. When you take away all the emotion of that entire day, it took a Heisman performance by Chambliss and the offense not showing up for an entire half to beat LSU by 8pts. And it was game 3.

There is A shite TON of football still to play and nothing was lost last Saturday other than a little pride. Go out this weekend, show you can bounce back and beat Aggy by 2 TDs.

If my dumb arse can see that I have to think Kiffin did the same.

That's right! We ain't out by a long shot. Play solid, turnover free football, and I can absolutely see this team headed into the bye week at 7-1 with all of our goals intact.

Thats what a person comfortable with what they do looks like. Trust the process. He knows that his offense has produced at every spot he's been.

He’s sitting on 90 million guaranteed. BK was comfortable too, but because he had the guarantee AND didn’t give a shite.

Looking back, the circus Ole Miss fans and the media have created over the last few months is honestly sad. LSU got dragged into a messy divorce when all we were trying to do was hire a damn good football coach, like every school does. And he was taking what he believed was a better job, like people do all the time.

Did he handle his exit perfectly? Probably not. But I’d have been pissed off too if I’d spent six years building a playoff team, only to be told I couldn’t coach them unless I committed to a long-term contract. That feels like a con job to me.

And during all of this, Ole Miss has won the PR battle while taking shots below the belt to us and trotting out ineligible players. And we are the problem?

I’m glad that mess is behind us, because I really think this LSU team is about to soar. Ole Miss caught us at the worst possible time for us, on the road two years in a row, with a massive circus swirling around the team. Our guys weren’t ready for that, and they shouldn’t have had to be. The whole thing was ridiculous.

No they didn’t. They outschemed us. They outplayed us and most importantly, they outcoached us.

Quit making excuses. We got pantsed.

I think Kiffin came here with a goal in mind that is bigger than money. I dont think money and guarantees are his reasons for being here by a longshot.

Meh, we had key injuries at awful times that were very impactful to the game. Ole Miss also did the bush league bullshite like playing music through the snap.

I will say Baker should be pretty embarrassed though by that first half performance. He got way too swept up in muh Houdini narrative and got clowned pretty hard.

I know we didnt give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

However, we did lose two very important starters. I had a ton of faith in D. Spears. J. Thomas looks to be legit in the flashes he was playing.

Hoping R. Mothershed has some sticky hands and somehow a knack for run blocking.

I felt like this would happen at some point - the injuries sting a little worse than the L column tally. 2nd half in Oxford proved the Team at least has some grit.

Onward.

What's more important is we play stellar football in the third through fifth consecutive games against Ole Miss in Oxford.

What? Why would we ever be playing more than one more game in Oxford consecutively? The only way the third straight game would happen is if we both made the playoff and met in the first rd with Ole Miss hosting the on campus 1st rd game.

Not an excuse, both of these can be true.

And a one score loss in a very hostile environment by a playoff team that brought back a lot more than we did from a non playoff team isn’t exactly getting “pantsed” imo

I was listening on the radio and noticed that too. I told my son and talking with him like I don't know. I wouldn't say it's overconfident but very relaxed just seem to be right on point. It's funny you made a post about that because I was thinking the same thing while listening to the radio show. Go Tigers!
