I kinda disagree with your take that its harder to win in baseball than football. Sure, the more talented team will win at a higher clip in football than it will in baseball. I agree with that. But in college sports id argue that its harder to become a top 3 team in football than it is in baseball. You keep using cws as a baseline here so ill keep it consistent. I think its much harder to be a top 8 team in football than it is in baseball. I think LSUs history in both sports reflects this. More schools put in more resources in football than they do in baseball. Which is why id put Les’s 2010-2012 run more impressive than Pauls 2012-2017 run. Hence why it was suprising why one was criticized and one wasnt during their similair stretched

Im recalling this from the stand point of having to defend les non stop those years. Was at LSU at the time. Vast majority wanted to fire les to bring in a chip kelly or a chris peterson or a mark dantonio. Never made sense to me

People were calling for Les’s head as early as 09. Sure alot of it had to do with Saban winning that year at bama, but it was happening. 2009 and 2010 had th ole miss and tennessee clock management blunders where a big majority of the fan base stopped taking him seriously. 2011 erased all of that up until 1/9, and then it was back. As soon as we lost to
Florida in 2012 due to lack of offense it just added fuel to the fire. If tou really dont remember that then I guess you just werent paying attention

Lsu football was a top 8 team each year from 2010-2012 after the regular season. If football had a 8 team playoff back then they would have made it 3 years out of 3. Fans still called for his head. Winning a natty in football is just as hard as it is in baseball. Still have to be the #1 team out of ~130. Going to the top 8 playoff 3 out of 5 years with no wins shouldnt have been looked at any different than what les did in that 3 year span. They were both very successful, just couldnt get over the hump. Yet during their tenures, one was praised and one was criticized. Never made sense to me

My point exactly. After 2011 and 2012 les didnt win it all with arguably his most talented teams, everyone called for his head

After PM didnt win in omaha with arguably his most talented teams (katz & raph years, bregman years) no one called for his head

Their paths and tenures were incredibly similar. Yet it always flabbergasted me that from 2012-2016 everyone called for Les’s head, but know one called for PMs head. Yet they were doing the same “les with more”. I think Les’s underachievments allowed paul’s to fly under the radar longer than it should have

Midwest Duck Outfitter Recs

Posted by Spider John on 11/10/25 at 10:31 am
looking to book a trip for the 2026 duck season. Does anyone have any recs of outfitters in either Kansas/Nebraska area, along with best time to go to shoot Mallards. Been up to Canada quite a few times and have been doing an annual trip to North Texas, but looking to change it up next year. Thanks!

2016 lsu defense has to be the most underrated lsu defense in the last 25 years (mainly due to it being a scratch year due to a coach getting fired mid season). I gets over looked. In the 4games we lost that season, I think we only gave up 3 total touchdowns.

1 Against wisky
0 Against Auburn
1 Against Bama
1 against Fla

Just goes to show how abysmal that offense was. You should win 100% of the games that your defense holds em to just 1 TD
Anyone have a recommendation? I had been going to a guy in slidell, but he’s done some shoddy work with long wait times the last few times ive gone to him. I keep the bike in mandeville id like to find someoen a little closer.

Problem with next year is you lose your top 3 pass catchers and top 4 offensive lineman. If im Nuss, its hard to look at that and think next years offense will be better

Kelly to a&m in 2022. They finished the season 5-7 (should have been 4-8) while we won the west. Just an absolute blunder of a game
