The dark ages of LSU football, when game day partying in the parking lot numbed the pain of the proceeding three and a half hours, might again be upon us. Four of the five SEC head coaches who have been hired since the end of the regular season - Arkansas' Chad Morris, Florida's Dan Mullen, Texas A&M's Jimbo Fisher and Mississippi State's Joe Moorhead - are known for their progressive offensive philosophies.


quote:

Then, review Orgeron's questionable coaching hires since he was promoted from interim to head coach two days after the 2016 regular season finale. It's hard to shake a feeling of impending doom.


quote:

Then, there's Orgeron, who has continually waffled on what type of offense he wants.


quote:

If LSU qualifies to play in a bowl, defensive coordinator Dave Aranda will have well-earned his $2.5 million annual salary. Then if there isn't vast improvement by the Tigers in 2019, there's just two years left on Orgeron's five-year contract, a manageable buyout since the rest of LSU's current buyouts should be paid off by then. It's a downer to project such a gloomy future.

Projecting 2020 before a change is made? Just shoot me now. On the bright side, I have missed fall catfishing on Saturdays for as long as I can remember. Looks like I get that day back for a couple years.

Finally. Some in the media had the balls to say it.

Y’all keep spewing this, and to be fair, no, the sky isn’t falling....yet. You have to recognize that the sky at least has a few cracks.

We need to bump this article. It speaks truth. We about to enter Hallman days. Its not going to be pretty. We need to somehow find a way to cope what is ahead and look forward to brighter days. Its about to get real fricking dark in these parts.

If they keep saying it they think they’ll be proven right. Some of us remember the signs and it’s eerily similar to what’s going on today.

Times-Picayune isn't painting a pretty picture


quote:

When LSU opens the 2018 season Sept. 2 in the Cowboys AT&T Stadium vs. likely preseason top 5 ranked Miami, the Tigers' offense will have new starters and backups at quarterback, running back and wide receiver.

After losing the opener, LSU should win its remaining non-conference games against Southeastern, Louisiana Tech and Rice.

From there, the Tigers will have to hustle to finish 7-5. You can count home games against Alabama and Georgia as losses as well as a road date at Auburn, with returning QB Jarrett Stidham and teammates still peeved about the way his team lost at LSU 27-23 this season after leading 20-0 in the second quarter.

That puts the Tigers' record at 3-4 with the rest of the SEC schedule home dates against Ole Miss and Mississippi State and road games at Florida, Arkansas and Texas A&M.
