You would know all about mindless.
It doesn't take anything special to eat your own, Mr. Fairweather fan.
Dinardo won 7 games in his last 2 yrs. Miles has never failed to win less than 8 and was nationally ranked in 09.
You posted a clueless fail.

If LSU had not lost other SEC games prior to losing to Ole Miss, there would have been something that looked more to me like LSU competing for the title and Alabama would not have the complete lock on the title as early as they did. So in theory, Alabama would have had to win out the season to be assured of the title. But instead they clinched the title weeks before the end of the season. This isn't foolproof, but there's a difference in every game making a difference and some games not really mattering.
According to you, we wouldn't have competed because Alabama had locked up the division as soon as they beat us.
Is that just too intangible and counter to the party line to be understandable?

Let's see, you are saying you are an LSU fan and you are measuring our average margin of defeat and because one season's average margin of defeat was not as bad as the previous year's margin of defeat (or something), you call that an improvement? Defeat is defeat. Mediocre play is mediocre play. And CLM has led LSU into the vast wasteland of mediocre play for two seasons running. This is not up for debate. It's reality and if you can't see this, then try saying: "GO, Green Wave!" or something equally non-LSU.
Our avg margin of defeat

5.75 compared to 13.8. Blown off the field by 3 and 4 TDs in '08, compared to worst of a TD and FG loss in '09 and one more win.
I call that improvement, anyone would except a negatiger.

9-4 record, #3 in the SEC, #17 nationally.
The offense was painful. The team itself was actually better than most believe it to have been but was overshadowed by the last two minutes of Ole Miss and Penn State.
You believe that four minutes is the difference between a "painfully average" team and a team that finishes 11-2?
thats just not reality. its just not. i dont want that to be the case, I dont even wanmt Miles to be fired, what I want is for him to be great because I like him a lot and i think hes a credit to college football, but LSU has been scraping by for two years now and theres just no excuse for it. How can you watch the Penn State, Miss State, Arkansas, and Ole Miss games and think LSU is playing to their potential. LaTech was 4-8 this year, and we beat them by 8, at home.
lets be clear, being 17th in the country fricking sucks. its not good enough. not even close. not with this roster.

Its going to literally take losing 11 games before you see the program is in decline, and even then it will somehow not be Les' fault

They clinched the title by beating LSU in a game we lead most of the way. Starting tailback, quarterback, and for all intents and purposes, our best defensive back all lost for pretty critical parts of the game (namely the end). They won the game and clinched the title. If we had won the game, we would have essentially had a one game lead on Alabama because we owned the tie breaker. That is not competing for the title?

You can support the coach while disagreeing with him at times. Ya'll like to use the term "running into the ground" because it helps you validate your hatred but its simply not true. The "sheep" are everyone that blames the head coach for everything without trying to see the bigger picture. The sheep are the ones baaing "fire the coach" everytime something goes wrong. The sheep are the ones the media make fun of and call crazy.

It's definitely more understandable, but it runs contrary to the original definition, I think.

This tends to be my thinking. Particularly that last bit.

Until LSU returns my calls and hooks up a direct line to the AD and gives me the power to hire and fire...i'll support every coach as long as he wears purple and gold....'cause i sure the frick ain't gonna stop going to the games.

It all depends on how good you think "this roster" is. Our potential is then a product of this. I'm of the persuasion that given the attrition at OL and QB in recent years, what we saw last year was to be expected. We were putting players out there that had no business playing this early, or even starting in the SEC at all.
Was 17th nationally good enough for this program? Hardly. Was it good enough for those players? I think it might have actually been an overachievement.

Bitching about the coach and/or coaching is the easy thing to do. I could have bit through a nail at the Ole Miss game. Sorry to say, that is not the first time I have felt that way at an LSU game (I had a hell of a dentist bill during the Hallman years). But I felt the same way with UAB in '00, Florida in '03, UT in '05, Miami Ohio in '86, and on and on and on. Every coach we have had has made me scratch my head or look on in disbelief.
Sure, the Ole Miss blunders hurt, the offense was painful to watch. But to say that we were not better in '09 than '08 is not reality. Miles has earned a couple of chits with me during his time here. He has used one up over the past couple of seasons. I am not ready to trash the guy for two seasons that did not meet my expectations. I hope he doesn't stretch it to three though. That will test my posi-tiger credentials.
