Why potentially give yourself an ulcer over A WIN? I think the appropriate word here would be PERSPECTIVE.

I think people are just perplexed by some people's decision to complain and moan, rather than enjoy a stellar ride this year. MOST people think fans are fans as a hobby, which is traditionally something done for recreation. Not to shave years off your life due to constant frustration, no matter the outcome.

Playing one way and winning then playing scared and changing your scheme only to lose.

How many times has this happened? Oh yea, once. Sorry by the way you said it I thought maybe we had lost more than once.

If you think that was a great post, you have been crunching BCS formulas way too long!:dis:

Blah, blah, blah....10-1 and won't get any better, blah, blah, blah. We would have been thrilled to be 10-1 last year at this point. Hell, I would be happen with 10-1 alot of years!!:thumb:

And that is saying something. Because there are some pretty damned stupid threads.

Do yourself a favor and give up hope right now because it
WILL NOT GET ANY BETTER.

Miles is in WAY over his head. This has nothing to do with him as a person as I'm sure he's a nice guy but he does not have the coaching skills to succeed at this level.

Putting aside all of the coaching mistakes the biggest reason Miles will not succeed at LSU is that
MILES PLAYS LOSER FOOTBALL.

Miles plays New Orleans Saints football. Doing less with more. Winning at points with talent then sitting on a lead. Playing one way and winning then playing scared and changing your scheme only to lose.

Couple of other thoughts

The team is undisciplined. Tons of penalties. Late hits. Smack talk.

Game management is a joke. This coaching staff is laughable.

Jamarcus runs instead of throwing the ball away. Field goal and LSU wins by 3. That type of selfish play isn't surprising from a player with "the chosen one" tattooed on his arm.

Playing to not lose and sitting on leads loses football games.

Pissing away 2 minutes and a chance to win the game to play for overtime when your offense hasn't moved the ball all half?? Brilliant.

With all of the talent on this team why is Hester and Brazille getting the ball so much? Jimbo is squandering his talent.

The defensive players are usually lost when playing prevent zone. They look to the side lines for answers as Tennessee was snapping the ball.

And finally, who made the decisions to change offensive and defensive schemes after the half? Did Miles order Jimbo and Bo to get so conservative or did they do that on their own?

WHY IS JIMBO NOT GETTING THE BALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE PLAYMAKERS??

Do we even have a tight end? What does EVERY OC do when their QB is having trouble getting into a rhythm? How about some quick outs to the TE? How about some screens? NOWHERE.

A tiger doesn't change his stripes. The one overriding thought that Okie State, OU and Texas fans all told LSU fans when Miles was hired was that he would blow HUGE leads. He is an old school BIG 10 disciple. Sit on leads and hope the clock runs out. Miles plays LOSER FOOTBALL.

Here is the bottom line. If you think Miles is somehow going to change his coaching style after 25 years you're going to be waiting a long time. He doesn't have the skills. PERIOD. He was a desperate hire after Saban left us in a lurch.

It took a last minute 4th down desperation play to beat an average Arizona St. team and Miles blew a 21-0 half time lead to a team that had 14 penalties and 4 turnovers at home.

The saddest part is that we're stuck with Miles for at least 2 probably 3 until we can even have a chance to get a new coach and a new beginning.

Everyone knew, including Miles what was expected. This team is loaded and this coaching staff is doing less with more. It isn’t because these players don’t know their brilliant system yet. Any moron can see this is a staff that is LOST. Should we kick? Should we spike? They don’t f-ing know.

These players played hard but were let down once again by their coaches. You will see transfers. This staff is a friggin joke.

A voice of reason. Miles can't coach in the SEC. LSU has as much talent as any team in college football. Yet they have struggled to win all year. This is the ugliest 10-1 season I've ever seen. There should not have been a close game all year. I've said it all year, Miles doesn't have the attitude to coach in the SEC. You can't play conservative in this league. Field Goals will never win you a national title. Now if you're happy with contending for a SEC title every few years then Miles is your man.

Just imagine if Spurrier had this team. LSU would be the most hated team in football. That would be awesome, because that would mean LSU would've pounded every team they played this year, and would've played with a swagger on top of that. But instead, we got DiNardo's deciple.

A lot of people say, "wait till he get's his own players, you'll see." Hello, you can't have much more talent than he has now. This will be the best LSU will do under Miles. Im sure Ang is happy with that.

I agree with you. No way does Saban sit on that football. Nick Saban teams played to win. Did I like the way he treated players and his HUGE ego. No. But the guy won football games.

Les Miles and his staff will have their rear end handed to him with this type of talent and pissing it away.

We are 10-1. You people who fuss about this season are the most ignorant people in the world. you must be a bandwagon fan who came on 2 years ago. Im 32 years old and we have lost 1 game in a season 2 times in my lifetime, 3 this year. We were preseason no. 3 last year and finish out of top 10. What happened to the great Saban last year. None of you idiots are real tiger fans. 10-1, 10-1. My God, get a life
