Help me understand this logic:
quote:

If Ole Miss loses it will be a death spiral from which they will not recover.


If Ole Piss wins or loses, there's no guarantee of anything they're gonna do for the rest of this season and Golding is no slouch. If it's a hard-fought game, high scoring or they lose by a field goal or an overtime, they're still gonna have confidence overall, especially after poaching coaches and team, money spent considerations, etc. And don't forget, they're spending about as much on their program, as we are and will continue to do so. And if we win or lose, there's no guarantee of what we gonna do against A&M or a Tennessee team on the road. I'm hopeful, but the confident talk of their imminent demise seems hopeful at best. I keep seeing a lot of talk as if we win this game and Ole Miss just sort of goes away into oblivion. ...can't wait for game day to get here. Geaux Tigers!

I’d have to disagree. At least in the short term, an LSU loss tomorrow would result in nonstop media dunking on Lane and LSU. If Ole Miss loses, everyone will just move on.

An Ole Miss loss is a shot to the future of their program. An LSU loss is a shot to Kiffen's ego. That's all. The program will move forward. Yeah it will suck for a week but a win against highly ranked TAM and we are back in the saddle.

I was against rushing the field when we beat
OM a couple years ago. We know who they are and what we are
We should beat them .....often

I do not want to lose any game. But there could/would be some very significant and powerful benefits that would immediately result if we should lose to Ole Miss.

Now, this post, like most of mine, is not for the average/typical "viewer". I say viewer because most here don't, won't or can't "read" what is actually written. Even more "viewers" are especially incapable of "reading between the lines", "connecting the dots" or following a series of ideas/points which unveils the main point, idea or deeper meaning/theme.

So most viewers have already bailed & "reacted" at the above suggestion of there being a very real benefit if we should lose tomorrow.

And that benefit would be to immediately assuage all the undeserved hate, jealousy, negativity, attention and faux outrage that has been directed toward LSU & Kiffin. Since Kiffin was hired almost all the focus/attention has been on him and LSU. And then, for the last month, 90% of the Mainstream & Social Sports Media World has been exclusively on LSU. It was wild, insane, fake/false. Federal lawsuits were filed, and real threats of expulsion, suspension, fines were levied @ LSU, our A.D., President, Governor, Team, Coach, etc. Attention is usually preferred to No Attention. But.....too much, especially "fake/false", can be catastrophic for many, many reasons!

All this focus and distractions would immediately go away with a specific loss to "Ole Miss"....for it is Ole Miss, and Kiffin leaving them to Coach LSU, which is how/why/where most of the hate, media pile on, opposing fan base's fear/jealousy was initiated!

Again, I DO NOT WANT TO LOSE TO OLE MISS! But....if we were to lose a game, this might be the perfect one! For it would THEN ALLOW US TO QUIETLY FOCUS, CONCENTRATE, SNEAK & OBLITERATE WHAT WILL BE EVEN MORE IMPORTANT, HIGHER RANKED OPPONENTS, CRITICAL GAMES DOWN THE ROAD!! As has been said, a loss to Ole Miss does NOT eliminate a Playoff berth, run or ultimate goal of winning a National Championship!

And even IF Ole Miss were to beat LSU, I don't think Ole Miss is going to be that relevant toward the end of the season. Hell, Mississippi State might be more relevant! I could be wrong, but I think if Ole Miss should beat LSU, they will be soo high that they will crash to lose other, even weak, opponents down the stretch!?!
