I agree. Georgia did the same thing, but decided to make a change.

Think it's time for LSU too.

That really depends on the east opponent LSU plays. I wouldn't call anyone from the west the past few years an auto win.

The 4 auto wins are the OOC games

Tell Miles to take off that damn championship ring from 07.

Last year, Miss St. Had a FG kick in the air to win the game and just missed it.



And some of us said at that time we were in big trouble and would likely lose the games later in the season that really mattered.

And guys like Choctaw Beefense and others put their head in the sand and pointed to the scoreboard and Miles' overall win percentage. All while ignoring the downward trend starting 1/9/12 and getting worse every year.

Those of us who were critical after the Miss St game last year were told we weren't real fans and should go find another team to pull for.

Well look where we are now. New year, same shite. Only much worse. With all the talent on the roster, the best RB in the country and an entire offseason to prepare...Les comes out of the gate with that game plan Saturday.

How anyone can still defend him is beyond comprehension.

Rip the bandaid off. Would rather watch a modern, strategic offense develop even if the growing pains cost us an occasional win for a few years. Who knows how many wins we've been costing ourselves already with this rugby offense!

The long term gains are worth it b/c this brick wall crap ain't working

Don't forget the dropped pass by the running back in the corner of the end zone ( State game)

It can only be one of two things. Either our expectations on incoming talent is too high(they are overrated) or the coaches are the problem. There really is nothing else. Also, yes 3 losses are too much to compete.

Outside of LF, What currently about LSU football isn't mediocre today?


I was pretty impressed with our defense. Considering it was their first game under a new coordinator and our offense was giving the ball to Wisconsin in the redzone every drive, I think they played exceptionally well.

If any other team would have had that defensive performance, they would have won the game.

Sadly we have a gutless and heartless offensive line and a coach who hasn't known what the frick he is doing since we got sexually assaulted in our last title appearance.

Really? The #1 ranked tight end from Southern Lab? Signed in 2001? Switched to DE after Saban suggested his athleticism would be better utilized at that position? All SEC 2003/04? All American 2003? 20th pick overall in 1st round by Dallas? WHO IS HE?

I've been thinking about this and it's dangerous to think 9-3 is mediocre. Michigan forced 3 loss lloyd out and look what happened.


Don't care about other schools. Plus look what happened to FSU when Bowden finally left.. They went back to another level again and won a championship.

Also, Miles has more than 3 loss seasons lately.. and the 3 losses are not even competitive. We are getting blown out in defeat!and we do everything the hardest way possible.. even the wins are struggles that shouldn't even be.
