re: Whats a good season in 2016

SEC Title & playoff appearance.

1.) Beat Everybody by double digits
2.) SEC championship
3.) Fournette Heisman
4.) Major haul in recruiting class
5.) Each supposed 1st round draft pick performs to their highest potential and we ACTUALLY have 7 first round picks.








































Or just an SEC championship.

Losing a west tiebreaker is bare minimum "good" IMHO. Enough of this middle of the mall shite

With this talent, experience, and elite games in Tiger Stadium, 10 wins is a must.

I think it is time to get to Atlanta. Time to step up and beat Bama.

Anything else is gravy.

Playoffs, at minimum

Realistically: playoffs

What should happen: we should win it all. If we don't this year, we never will again under Miles.

I'll say 10-2 is the base line for an acceptable season. This team has the talent to go much further than that, but its sports and you never know if you lose on a shite call or a fumble just bounces the wrong way. Sometimes you just don't get a break and it costs you a game. Unfortunately with a regular season of so few games and so few teams getting the opportunity to play for a national championship there is quite literally 0 room for error.

Undefeated national championship then coach gets fired

Win 4 games in November.

If 10 wins while playing in the SECW is something to be shite on, explain to me why LSU is the only SEC team to average 10 wins for the past eleven seasons

the "10 win" threshold is misleading. With the bowl, we play 13 games. We usually play 3-4 OOC cupcakes each year, then our SEC schedule has a handful of average teams. And then there's the bowl game, too often against a mediocre opponent. The meat of our schedule is Bama, Ole Miss, Auburn, Florida, and Arky.

If we go 10-2 and our two losses are to a pair of those 5 teams, it just means we've gone 3-2 against them. We can also go 9-3 and then win a shitty bowl to get to the magic "10-win" threshold.

That's ok, but not great.

See, I don't give much credit for beating Eastern Michigan, Syracuse, WKU, etc. I also don't give much credit for beating Miss St, A&M, Vandy, Kentucky, Missouri, So. Carolina. We're LSU. We have much more talent than these teams and SHOULD best them virtually every year.

So yes, I'm glad we beat them, but that's not what we should base our success on. It's the 4-5 teams that are our REAL competition that I judge our season on.
