Bama was a whole lot more ready to go this time around then LSU was and it cost us a title we deserved!


LSU didn't deserve shite. They got beat when it mattered most. Doesn't matter who they played.

yea after 1 year you know what A&M is gonna do for the next 10.

That's the way it's trending, dude. All that needed to happen was for someone to take just enough talent away from Miles so it couldn't make up for his mistakes.

+1
not as much in the Xs and Os,( two different yet similar philosophies),
but in the
OVERALL system onto which they recruit, motivate and develop.
They get their players to BELIEVE and to DEVELOP better than our coaches do.

Wrong. Those kids deserved that because of that really tough schedule that they went through and played they hearts out for only to be done in by one fools (Mile's) words. If Bama couldn't get it done in the annual tough game, you don't deserve another shot to get it done, plain and simple, but Mile's thought he could say that crap (about being honored to play them again) because he figured he wouldn't be playin them again, well, guess what jackass!!

AMEN!!!!


The talent is there at LSU. The amazing thing is that usually the hardest thing for a college football program to get IS the talent. We've got that. And half of the team (the Defense) is well coached!!!!

BUT WE HAVE AN IDIOT AT THE WHEEL!!!!

CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!! Truth is that Miles can get ALL the 5 star recruits he wants... IF he can't devlop them once they get here... ITS USLESS. There is NO way that the Talent that LSU has should Clemson even been on the same field with LSU. Its kinda funny that there are SOO many players that want to try the pro game cause they know that the LSU offense will suck next year BECAUSE of Miles.

#1...It's the offensive lines. Theirs is FAR better.
#2...QB play has been weak. Mainly, their QB's have been better than ours.
#3... We do not use the TE and screens enough.

Well this post is stupid on a lot of levels but lets start here. Miles DOES have one and PLAYED for another. Chizik had the benefit of having one of the best CFB QB's to play the game to get him to his NC...Miles got an appearance with JJ as QB. Which is the greater achievement? Also without a good QB Chizik got fired, whereas without a good QB Miles has won more SEC games in the last 3 years than any other team.

Now listen here princess, just because there are no pictures YET of you sucking a dick on the internet does not prove you are not gay. Until you can produce evidence that you have actually have had sex with a woman I will maintain that you are a homosexual. Mostly because of your lack of football acumen.

Look I have been critical of Miles lately because of a lethargic offense that would have trouble moving the ball against a high school team.

But for god sake, some of you are so god damn negative you'll really find anything to bitch about.

Do you have any idea how great of a recruiting tool this will be for Miles?


Chimlim, yep you are right it is a great recruiting tool, but if you don't think experience and leadership from seniors don't help tremendously then you are an idiot It is about sending players to the NFL, are you telling us Saban doesn't have that great recruiting tool also. I personally feel Saban's recruiting tool is actually better "if you do leave early you are going to be a 1st or 2nd rounder" look at the 3 that just announced Milner, Lacy & Fluker all project in 1st or 2nd round. And if you stay for your senior year "the 8 that did stay" you will get drafted and you will compete for a National Title.

Obviously Miles will use what happened to his benefit as much as possible, but you could tell from his interview responses to the Advocate he is not happy with what is going on.

Look no doubt Bama get's a lot, and I mean a lot of help, just look at the scheduling it is unfair as hell. But to me it is more than just that, and I feel it has to do with the confidence the players have in the coaches of getting them to the championships. Could be wrong, probably am wrong but that is just how I see it.

One poster said it is because 22/yo seeing dollar signs and wanting it. Well Bama's 8 juniors that stayed for their senior year this year had the same opportunities to earn the dollars as our juniors this year and they stayed. Why are their 22/yo's different than ours. No way you can say talent Bama won the NC last year and this year. So why did they not take the dollars and ours did? There has got to be a reason. I feel it is because they know with Saban they will be playing for SEC & BCS Championships if they come back and then after they play for them they go get the dollars.

These posts really are sickening...LSU was one play from playing for the SEC West Championship this year...we played Bama in the NC in 2011; 2010 was a 10 win Season; 2009 we beat Bama and lose to Auburn 21-17 I don't get your point...it's not like we're getting blown out each year! C'MoN MAAN, take a chill pill! Bama and LSU have been the two most consistent teams in the nation...get a grip on life and let that BS go!!!


jrevonte - Where the f*ck did I say LSU was not one of the premier teams in the country? Read the post! I compared Bama to LSU, not LSU to the country. Unfortunately for LSU Bama is not only in our Conference it is in our division so if you can't compare yourself to teams in your division who do you compare yourself with???? Exactly you compare yourself to your COMPETITION. Are we better than all but Bama in our division, yes we are but you can bet TAMU is coming on strong so who knows in a few years. Look it sucks that the best coach in college football coaches against us every year but that is just something we have to deal with.

You don't get my point, than I will explain it as simple as possible. The athletes go to college to play football, try and get a degree, try to win championships and hopefully get drafted and earn money. If maybe they don't have faith that their coaches can put them in a position to win championships than it might be a whole lot easier for them to make the decision to earn money sooner rather than a year later.

LIke I said, I could be wrong but there has got to be a reason why their 8 juniors came back this past year to play as seniors when they could have been drafted probably in the same rounds as ours are going to be this year, and ours are not. Some idiot said because they are 22/yo's looking to make the dollars, so Bama's 22/yo's are not? Is that the load of BS that poster is trying to sell?

The big difference is that BAMA administration and its fans "DEMAND" championships and excellence and they will not settle for less. Our AD stated that it was not about winning championships but about being in position to win championships. Would BAMA ever say that or settle for that. Hell No. I remember the Hallman days and the Dinardo days when many many fans with purple shades glasses were ok with it just as they are today. I have a board meeting next week and what do you think my board would do if I said "It's not about winning projects but about being in a position to win them". They would do what I would expect them to do. Fire ME. Of course I am not that stupid to say that and of course I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT.


kbmaverick is correct and most of the posters on this board are to f*cking stupid to understand what he is saying.

So here goes a little education for them. Les Miles with his new raise is the 4th highest paid coach in the country. Let that sink in for a minute.

Now you need to understand this, college football is no longer just a game it is a BUSINESS whether we like it or not that is now what it is. In business if the CEO - which that is what you can equate Les Miles to, to his football team - if the CEO is the 4th highest paid CEO in the country you can better believe he will have some explaining to do to the Chairman and the BOD if the company is the 14th most profitable company in the country. And next year that BOD will not want to hear well we are so young, because so many of our employees left that we are going to be the 14th or so most profitable company in the country. That BOD will say we are paying you the 4th highest salary because we expect you to be in the top 5 year in year out with the talent you have. And what really doesn't help Miles unfortunately is the highest paid coach "or CEO" in the country is in the same Conference & Division and that highest paid coach "CEO" is delivering to his BOD the goods they have been #1 three of the past 4 years . He had a slip up in 2010 but then came back and was # 1 the next two years.

So does anyone really think with the youth that we have on our team with 11 juniors leaving this year that we are going to be in the top 5 next year, especially with our schedule? I love LSU, but if we are 10-3 next year I personally feel that will be an accomplishment. Does that make it alright, to me HELL NO. You want to get paid like you are the best than damn it you need to perform like you get paid.
