Seems like a perfectly reasonable conclusion.
Really? Reaslly you little twat?


West Virginia-Lost 6 games, one being by 14 to unranked texas, and they just lost their bowl game by 16 to unranked Utah



Michigan--Lost 4 games, one being a 29 point dick kicking to Penn State




Those teams being ahead of us next season is not being objective. It is being a negative little twat

I also have never said going 9-3 is unacceptable.
Pretty sure you called it unacceptable in 2015, even though those 3 losses were to much stronger opponents than 2017 losses.
I'll grant you the offense you bitched about is different, albeit actually worse at scoring points.

As I recall, Auburn was a 7 point favorite


I don't give a shite what you recall as the line whether its the opening line or the line at kickoff as it has nothing to do with what I said.

you defeated your own argument by saying

quote:

It had the better QB, the better RB (Guice was not 100%) and the much better OL.


auburn had the better QB and the better OL. and probably the better kicker.

LSU had the better DL, LB, secondary, WR corps, and I'll take an 80% guice and a 100% williams over johnson and pettway.



TL;DR - LSU was the more talented roster, you have proven with your own words.

Secondly, it's over the top because you are looking at it in a vacuum. Next year's schedule is very strong.


this is a "problem" that is totally unique and new to LSU.

LSU has never faced a "very strong schedule" in the history of antiquity. I really am not sure why Orgeron is even going to bother after the bowl game. the schedule is just. so. hard.

is 9-3 more acceptable for an established coach or a first year coach?

Melt.

ETA: It's funny, because you're calling me a twat like I'm the one that picked those 10 teams. Fun fact though, even if I was the one that made the list, LSU would still not be on it.

Two teams not on that list are 1 player away from being contenders:

LSU and TCU

The problem is that the 1 player is a proven QB.

Funny how that works.....we were never considered fans when we were pointing out CLM's many flaws.....just malcontents who needed to go away.

Now.....you're a "fan of the program" if you're constantly bashing away at O.

Why would an average team and program make the top 10?

Face it, LSU is average.

But any idiot can win 10/yr at LSU.......and top 10 classes are a given, LSU recruits itself.
You shouted decline with top 5 classes from previous staff, but pump the new coach who falls short of practically every facet of the game except the DC he inherited.
I hope for the best, but signs point elsewhere.
Geaux Tigers anyway.

We don't have the coach to be "poised to make a playoff run."

I truly hope we make a run, but it will be in spite of the coaching.

What part of that hasn’t happened?

We are poised to win 10 games and have a top 10 class correct?

No, you were malcontents that needed to go away because you said stupid things that did not jive with reality.

No, I'ma fan of the program because I want LSU to win. If that means O never loses a game again, that fine with me. Yall are the idiots that could not separate man and program.
