    Sometimes it's in how you lose, not just the loss. After the Auburn game, the nation knew how hard we fight and how good our defense is, but after a national embarrassment on national TV this weekend, we look like fools.

    I'd rather lose 3 games a year in hard fought bouts when we get beat than to lose ridiculously to ourselves two times (and that's not neccessarily taking away from Florida).

    That is what I was trying to say subtly, but Col Reb didn't get it I guess. And Yes throw all hs star ranking out, LSU still has a top 5 talent level team. I wasn't saying anything about losing or putting blame on any one person for losing. It was how we lost. The whole team blew chunks and that right after Auburn gave an early Christmas present to the tigahs.

    Thats the point the two losses we suffered was because we shot ourselves in the foot, and thats something we can fix, (it's not a personnel problem). I'm pretty sure that noone on the team or the coaching staff wants that kind of embarressment again, and hopefully they work on it, so its not so far fetched for us to finish strong.

    And to all the people out there who are "oh god, its over", or "we need to get rid of Les", or "put Flynn in", shows what little they know about football and what kind of fans they are. I remember a time where LSU was always the underdog and we would be happy to get one upset a year. Now we're the team to beat. Geuax Tigers B*tches

    The popular notion is that we won't be able to finish the season with only 2 losses. I think the mental mistakes will be fixed and definitely think we can finish the season 10-2, 9-3 at worst, which is what most people were expecting before the season anyway because of our incredibly tough road schedule.

    if would be different if you were saying this at the end of the season not at midseason.

    Spelling is one thing, but you gotta know how to spell GEAUX.

    And to say that the people who want Les gone know nothing of football is a bit much. What did he ever do before he got here except for taking and under achieving team and making them mediocre at best? Now, I can understand your frustration of firing him right this second, but to the people who saw the writing on the wall, it isn't irrational, even though it is to me.

    I hope Les pulls it together, but it seems as though I am slowly losing hope in him and his "coaching," not the Tigers.

    GEAUX TIGERS!
