I'm hoping Kiner will get on track. TBH, I liked him better than TDP. At least if a hole was plugged, he didn't try to bull his way through it anyway. He could bounce it outside as well truck people.


Yes sir this is a time when some our players that haven’t gotten much playing time hopefully man up and shine. With a new coaching staff coming in I would view this as an opportunity to step up and show my new coaches I can get the job done.

LSU shouldn't play this game.

We are going to be beaten badly.
We are in a midst of a culture change (see D. McGlothern).

The benefits far outweigh the risks. And I'm speaking strictly "internal". The impact of pulling it off with the people left in the locker room will pay huge benefits.

The impact of losing, again- in the locker room only, is minimal.

They know what they're up against. To pull it off puts a huge chip on their shoulder and gives them a foundation or common ground to be a team, not a collection of players, going forward. Should they lose, they lose as "the guys who at least tried" against huge odds. That's something too.

It might not look good in the press. It won't help recruiting. But next year, if they pull it off, it will be one of those things similar to the veterans of Stalingrad- they had a level of respect and comradery those that came behind them always acknowledge. And by the way, that was true for both sides including the losing Nazi's. So just going out and playing, hard with maximum effort, and losing will have benefits... in the locker room.

Where are the 2021 and 2020 recruiting classes? Don’t we sign 25 each year? We didn’t have all of them transfer.

I think UAB had more on their roster when they didn't even have a team...heck...Bishop Sycamore has more!

I hope all the quitters watch the game and feel sick the whole time...though, since they quit, they prob. couldn't care less to even watch the game...

I have not noticed your posts...no offense.

But, if you are a realist who can objectively evaluate what we are up against and still come to the conclusion that we are going to win this game, then I suspect you are already drunk.

They won’t care. If they did, they would all be playing tomorrow. All of the opt outs and guys saving themselves for a possible pro career will only regret these moves once they’re done playing. When you’re 19 or 20, you think you’ll be playing forever.

This is sort of embarrassing but it should get turned around with BK.


It would be embarrassing if we quit and didn't play in the game.

I don't have much faith, but I have respect for those manning up and playing.

Who cares? Next man up. Play the guys you have and play the game. Better than pulling a UCLA.

If LSU were to win this game with no QB, no coaching staff, no defensive backfield, and no starting linebackers I would be stunned.

The line is all the way up to -7 for KState.

People are in denial.


All that and the line only -7?

Wow.

You know what? It's not embarrasing. Get behind these coaches and players for manning up. TAM, UCLA, Miami and all these teams that pulled out of their bowls because it wasn't ideal conditions for them. We have 40 and we are playing. KSU should say thank you for not bailing out. So all these guys who want to go play for a quitter like Jimbo go ahead. And when you don't get to start like he promised all of you, we'll see you in the portal.

This is one of those lines that does not make sense to me at all.

I'm guessing K State just isn't very good. But, what LSU is dealing with right now is kind of unprecedented. I think people are missing the boat.
