Maybe some of these weren’t as ugly as I remember.
3TD Ws aren't end of the world bad imo.
I'd rather see backups get experience than risk injuries chasing style points after a 3 or 4TD lead.

A few of us stayed until the bitter end against Troy in 2008.

I stayed as well. I hid behind one of the tunnel walls from the wind. It was glorious watching Troy still trying to hurry up while LSU came back.

That’s true lol, I just remember 24-3 at half. I was at a wedding and we were all outside listening to the game, it was pretty unreal.

Outside of 2007 those weren’t great teams. I would hope that we’re better than that.

Let’s not pretend Saban did not lose to UAB and almost lost to Troy as LSU coach also.

This is not a post-Saban issue.

Notice 2019 n 2011 LSU isn't on the list. I think thats thr aggravating thing. Aloy of Tiger fans just feel let down again. Even if 2-0 the writing is on the wall. We still can have a good year but we have some glaring holes along the offensive line and now TE that will cost us at dome point.

I was an invited walk on at Troy in 08, i couldn't believe what I was watching. It was bizarre that my lifelong team was on my school's field struggling their arse off.
