do you really believe that stuff about people liking or giving coach O a break because "he is one of us"? I bet people that are actually from "down the bayou" is a very small percentage of posters on this board. Plus I would bet that if they are LSU fans they could care less or would cut him any slack. The small percentage that is from down the bayou just want to see LSU be successful much more than care about anything about where coach O is from

Funny, I don't remember "hate" for Cushenberry. Not how I define hate anyway. There's no reason to set up some straw men and label them "idiots" (and I'm still trying to understand your comment about how they "[struck] again").
Your post would be much more effective and you would be much less maligned if you simply reported the positives about Cushenberry.

What were my terrible preseason predictions again? I had us around 9-3.
then with this schedule, how could you predict that if you saw everything that was going on with the team and the staff as such a disaster? If O and the staff are so incompetent and every thing that happened last year and since then with this program was so tragic, why did you predict 9-3 (I suppose you are only counting regular season since you only account for 12 games) when we went 9-3 last season in regular season, especially with the schedule being so much tougher? It doesn't add up.

noticed the same thing with all the other anti o negatards also predicting a 9-4 or 10-3 season. I didn't really think about it at the time but if the whole program was in such disarray why would they expect to do as well or better against an extremely tougher schedule than last season? If it was a strategy, as I'm sure it was, what was that strategy?
Posted on 9/20/18 at 11:22 am to boxcar willie
The whole point all off season was that some people didn't think Coach O was the guy to get us back to a perennial 10 win team and back to competing for championships. I thought it would be an 8-4 type season, but 8 or 9 wins wasn't good enough before and it shouldn't be good enough now. The schedule is the same as it's been outside of last year and it's not getting any easier any time soon.
3-0 is an amazing start, but the doubt has always been the total amount of wins. I'm still hoping I'm wrong and it sure looks like we should be on our way to a 10 win season this year. It's song season and we will have to see how it plays out. I'm gonna be pulling for them to win every game just like I've done every season before this one.

“ if the whole program was in such disarray”
Why should anyone think that? The program could have easily gone 11-2 last season and been ranked in the top 10 The season turned out to a disappointment, but this program was solid last yr and still is. imo

how did you come to that conclusion? 2011 is the only year that started off looking like it was going to be as tough as this years but ended up being not as tough as predicted based off where teams ended up in the polls. Still the hardest other than possibly this season. We will see after the final polls.
that's not what I was hearing from them. It's not what they were saying in threads. The jist of what they said is that everything O did was wrong and that basically he was an incompetent boob. Predicting a 9-4 or 10-3 season doesn't jive with having an incompetent boob as HC, with or without a tough schedule. But it seems you are saying that they think he is an average coach, but just can't get us to the next level?
so bowl games don't count? Just say 8-5 OK, so that way at least your prediction is somewhat consistent with your beliefs about Coach O. If you think he is an incompetent boob you should predict 7-6.
nobody cares if you are "right or wrong" about your prediction. I doubt anyone bet money based off what you think.
edit: nothing against your prediction. It's just that predictions are meaningless. The way I see it is that every week you have a certain percentage chance of winning a game and what actually happens in the game is much more random. Cole kicking that field goal for the win made me happy but still doesn't change the facts of the rest of the game. What's more important was that the team played itself to be in that position over the course of the game.

Some people are just morons and will never give him credit and create threads just to be assholes. I'm more or less talking about the regular posters that get called haters and are accused of wanting LSU to lose.

I would actually say I thought he was a bit below average. I didn't mind the "letting my coach's coach" model, but it had not worked up until the time that this was being discussed. I didn't trust his ability to hire good assistants because he hadn't shown he could do it yet and then let them coach. He looks like he could be doing it this time.

A 10 win regular season is the benchmark. Always has been and I've been very consistent with that as have most people. This is where the disconnect comes in. I say 8-4 and people like you come in and start twisting that into "well just say 7-6 like you really mean and call him names." It's a ridiculous response.

I was going out of my way to make sure I made myself clear that I wasn't rooting against him because if I don't people will start accusing me of it. I was trying to be polite about the discussion, but if you want to be a fricking dick about, we can do that too.

If predictions are meaningless, why are you worrying about what people predicted before the season??

Are you trying to discuss what people thought before the season or what they think now? It's two different conversations that you seem to be trying to make into 1.

We could just as easily beat Notre Dame and Troy but it didn't go our way. We shouldn't have even been in the position to lose to Troy. Or there were a couple games that we won that we could have just as likely lost. But with all the vitriol towards coach O in the offseason on this board from a small but very vocal group you would think the team was in a downward out of control spiral. Then right before the season starts they all say they are predicting 9-4 or 10-3. It is just very inconsistent.

because the way you said it was like it was of some importance
edit; plus that you added that "I hoped I was wrong". Well you say you are an LSU fan so don't you think that is a given. What fan would hope we lose 5 games/ I know there are some that want LSU to lose in order to get rid of O but they are a small minority within the negatard minority
also I am talking about the predictions they made before the season started and about what they said, and still say, about the state program under coach O.

You would think that would be a given, but I've been accused of my hatred for Orgeron not allowing me to be fair and accused of hoping Coach O fails and LSU loses so many times, I wouldn't know where to begin to count just how many it is. At least in the thousands. That's why I'm so careful with any criticisms that I had no matter how big or small.

they base it off the records of your opponents without taking into consideration the toughness of their opponents.
I was going off of AP poll rankings which isn't the end all be all but it is a lot better than that method. This years schedule, as based off AP rankings, was tougher by far than any other season ended up being. We have to see how these teams we play end up in the rankings. 2011 preseason schedule was slightly tougher than this years preseason schedule but didn't end up being tough as predicted based off final rankings.
I'm not going to do all that research again but it's there if you want to look into it.
I' m not trying to be a dick towards you, not saying you and sorry for coming off like that, just that people on here act like their before the season predictions have some relevance beyond just some number they pulled out their heads.
