We need to show better support towards the program. I'm sick of all the negativity with LSU fans. I know the product on the field isn't exactly what everyone hopes for but at the end of the day, this is still LSU, these kids are playing for LSU and Louisiana. The problem is the administration and HC and these kids have no control over that.

Just show support for the players. Cheer them during the games. Win or lose at the end of the day it's just kids playing a game.

I'm sure I'll get a lot of downvotes because some of you are just miserable but whatever

The problem with what you're saying is that quite a few of the players on this team aren't playing for LSU. Even former players are calling out guys for "playing for the NFL" and half assing it.

The guys who are clearly giving LSU their all (Devin White/Greedy Williams/John Battle) should absolutely be applauded.

But the guys who are playing half speed and quitting midplay (or constantly dealing with off the field issues) should be criticized. Football teaches life lessons, and one of those lessons is accountability.

Thing is, it's way beyond "not exactly" what was expected.

And, while the kids do need support, it is that support that also floats O.

I think O is a good man.....just bad for LSU

Lots of posters here that I've noticed are just pure trash.
They have no knkowlefege of football other than their Nintendo 64 or PlayStations. They want to see this man and team fail.

Many lsu fans hated les miles from the start, CEO will be thought of in same manner.
It's Why this board sucks so bad.

Sure, but they have to show some want and chest on the field. These are adults we are talking about. It isn't just the scoreboard it's what is shown by them on the field that has everyone in an uproar.

Remember, it's just entertainment . It's not life or death. We have not been entertained yet. It's our collective dollars that give these guys ( coaches and players ) the opportunity.

Eta. Many on the rant have been in melt down mode since 1/9/12. They are helpless.

I truly believe most fans (not the microcosm here) are just shocked and completely disappointed in HOW we lost. It's been a long time since I've seen an LSU TEAM be physically dominated twice in a year.

Yeah Bama has had our O-Lines number but the D was stout. 2013 the D seemed soft but the O was physical.

Right now it looks only as if certain players are phydical while the team, is not as much as in the past. That is what has me most concerned

Criticizing the team is a definite sign someone is not a fair weather fan. Fair weather fans are the ones who are nowhere to be found when the team hits a rough patch. Those of us who are all over CEO care, a lot. Too much. Not the same thing. Just honesty over rose colored glasses.

But yes, obviously cheer for the team. I always do. Just a lot of disappointment this year from doing that.

Understatement of the fricking century.

It's a goddamn embarrassment to lose to troy. Just absolutely shameful. I'm glad that fans are being negative and not going to games. This administration needs to know that there are consequences for their ineptitude.

Excellent post

The amount of drama queens in this forum is alarming. Like another poster indicated only entertainment. I attribute this behavior to majority of posters still trying to accomplish something, anything in life

Objective criticism is one thing. Instability and serious mental issues are entirely different. Many are obsessed. They need some true life lessons in order to understand what is important in life. We are all disappointed, and as an alum and season ticket holder, I definitely consider myself a "real" fan. Do I think O is the right guy for the job, probably not. Am I gonna start 20 threads a day repeating the same old bs....no. grow up.

Even people that want Alleva and Orgeron gone still "cheer" for the players and team. Hey, I want LSU to catch lightning in a bottle and turn it around, but there are no realistic indicators supporting a turnaround and we are clearly heading down the highway to obscurity. Doesn't mean I won't watch the games and support the Tigers.

Most fans, even those of us viewed as negative, can separate our views about the BOS, administration and head coach from the need to support the players, especially those giving great effort.

That's the problem with this new generation. Always blaming someone else. It's not the qb fault, he didn't get proper coaching. It's not the coordinators fault, the head coach is responsible. Bs. The offense sucks, that is on Canada. The defense sucks, that is on aranda. The team sucks, that is on O. Bh couldn't throw a 10 yard pass, that is on bh.
