He talked in circles. How old is he? Says Auburn played the best game in a long time but gives lsu no credit in winning

Says Mett is a work in progress. What does he think we had last year! Our defense is better than last year. We had no linebackers last year.

So, Pat Dye and Michael Wilbon are trolling on topical discussion shows as they are paid to do. UPROAR!



Yes, seriously.

early 70's. I rode the elevator with him before the game Saturday night, seemed like he'd had 4-5 cocktails. He put his arm around me and asked me who I was sitting with/told me to have a good time.

I liked the idiot that called in right before 5 claiming to be an LSU fan who was hoping Auburn would have won because of how great the crowd was. Said he didn't care since LSU wasn't that good this year anyways...


Hoping we don't have fans that stupid!!

Who was that fat bastard who blocked it? I assume he has eaten himself out of the NFL as I didn't see him playing for Baltimore last night.

That doesn't even scratch the surface of the stupid I have seen posted on this board over the last few years. We have fans light years dumber than that. And many of them post here.

Since you asked for it, 21-0.


Kind of dumb to mention the rematch (highly uncommon in college football) without mentioning the first game which LSU won on the road. We'll assume you were trolling instead of lacking basic intelligence.

How was that asking for it? He simply stated that it is possible even without a passing attack. The example is last year's first game against Bama.

The NC is unrelated. Especially since we have a bye week and a home game and you guys have a trap game the week before.

I don't think that Mett is a real threat to run the option, (LSU's only successful running plays) which combined with Bama missing 4 field goals was the reason LSU won the first game.

My point was that Dye's remarks are not particularly controversial. He didn't say LSU couldn't beat Alabama, only that they were unlikely to do so without a more effective passing game.

Mett was underwhelming in his first SEC road game, but it was in part due to the short leash he was on as far as playcalling goes.

I think LSU has lost a lot from last year's team, when you look at 4 of their 6 top DB's, Faulk and their secondary coach.

The one upgrade LSU was supposed to have was at QB, but thru 4 games he is rated lower than Jarret Lee was last year. There is no doubt that Mett has more arm talent, but he has a ways to go to demonstrate that he is a significantly better QB. He has eight more regular season games to demonstrate that he is superior to previous QBs, and I am certain that his performance will improve. His O-Line and receivers are not giving him as much help as they could.

I don't think we're "under the radar" by any means; if anything I'd say that we're under a microscope, but I get what you're saying. Regardless, I hope the teams takes this as disrespectful and makes a statement to silence the bs
