    I know it's one loss but it was a huge blow out. Heck I can't even remember DiNardo losing this bad.

    Whether we want to believe it or not these are Les Miles players. The defensive cordinators are his hand picked. He was massively successful with NS's players.

    Let's see what happens next week. If we lose to SC and UGA at home look out!

    You have to be the biggest bandwagon fan ever. If I really gave a crap, I'd go look and see what you said after the Tenn loss in '05. In fact, I'd go see what you said about the UAB loss back when.

    Did you really think we were going undefeated this year? Go jump on PSU's bandwagon...they look hot right now.

    Holy cr@p. Nick Freakin' Saban lost by 30 points TWICE in 2002, to AU and Alabama--largely because he didn't have an experienced QB.

    Chill out.

    Oh good heavens, try, TRY, TRYYY, not to have a diaster mentality. Not every loss is the coaches fault. And one loss to a very good Florida team does not mean the collapse of the program.

    The only thing I am slightly worried that this loss signals is the potential lack of a defensive coordinator. If this is in fact a team that will not be very effective on defense because of poor coaching, then I would be worried Les is loyal to his guys and keeps them on board and we become an Oklahoma State of the Les Miles days trying to outscore everyone.

    I don't think it will come to that. But you gotta admit, it's a question mark at this point.

    Let's play out the rest of the season and then we can assess things better.

    Please don't encourage him.


    Oh, and the last thing the LSU fanbase needs is someone looking back on the so-called LSU "glory days" under N.S. Les Miles has been consistently more successful than NS. Go Away.

    Getting ahead of yourself after one poor showing. Hell you seem to forget all the blowouts we suffered while NS was here. This one was very similar to the UGA loss at their place the year after the 2003 NC.

    Not saying their is not holes in our defense after losing much of our experience from last year on the defensive side of the ball and the offense put us in horrible field position all game long when they didn't score on our turnovers.

    Season is far from over and I see this game as being the spark that ignites our young guys. Way too early for panic mode.

    I think any thought of anyone's star fading is rediculous.
    Every coach has rebuilding years from time to time.
    Maybe most don't see it but this is a rebuilding year on both sides of the ball.

    The old saying is that if you have 2 QB's playing without having a starter is that you have no QB.
    This game totally reminded me of the Ohio State vs USC game this year except Ohio State found their QB.
    It may be a rough ride this year but this totally makes me appreciate every year that we've actually been good a little more.
