With the talent LSU has, they should have beaten Wisconsin, Auburn and Florida by ten points each. If you are Les, how do you not recognize that Etling is better than Harris (and it's not even a debate)!

I'm not saying the Tigers should have beaten Bama, but they should have gone 10-1 and played them again in the CFP. Not saying LSU would have beaten Bama in the CFP game, but at least they would have gotten a second chance.

As an LSU fan, I'm sick and tired of my favorite team not playing up to their potential. It makes me sick to see how many great, young NFL players we have (especially when they are making plays against my Saints) knowing that the best bowl game we've attended since 2012 was the Outback Bowl.

Hopefully this sh*t ends in 2017. There is no reason why LSU shouldn't be 5-0 after play ends on Sep 30. Furthermore, there is no reason why LSU shouldn't be 8-0 by Oct 21.

You can blame Joe Alleva for not having the stones to go through with firing Miles after last year.

You can blame the Miles-pumpers for cheering for him to keep his job after beating A&M.

You can blame Miles himself for not recognizing that the game had passed him by, and that he could help the program by retiring.

Miles didn't lose Florida. Had Ed won out with the talent at LSU we would be in the CFP

I think we will next year... I don't think we will lose games any longer because of inept coaching. Now a game like FL may happen again bc every year every team has a game or two like that. Championship teams can over come 1 or the 2 or both. I think next year we will be that type of team. GT

Yes. If LSU had beaten Alabama, Florida, and won the SEC championship to go 10-2, they MIGHT have made the playoff. But, after what the committee did to 10-2 Penn State who won the Big10 and beat Ohio State, I'm not so sure anymore. I think that if Alabama had gone 11-1 they might have gotten in anyway and LSU might have been left out with 2 losses.

LSU this year was exactly two plays away from yet another ten win season under CLM.

Les Miles was a regular 9-10 game winner without any scandals (cough, Petrino and Nutt) and an outstanding program leader. None of the head coaches who were considered to replace him had that resume. Not one.

It amazes me that the fanbase wanted to fire him but thinks Cholly Mac was better.

If you don't think Miles deserved to be fired, you're totally delusional.

Shouldda, wouldda, couldda is an exercise for losers.

Here is a hint. If you knew any thing about football you would be coaching it instead of hanging out on an internet fan site crying like a little girl.

Grow a set and get over it.

Ohio State should not have been a CFP team so niether should have LSU. The Guru's can shove their subjectivity up their arse.

We just took a bite out a bitter fruit.

You either deal with a problem or it will deal with you.

Hopefully we are on the right track now - I feel good about the program for the first time in a while. Still don't like Alleva.
