    If birds had machine guns then cats wouldn't fuck with them. A couple weeks ago I was certain that LSU would beat the red menace this year. I guess I had been hitting the whisky a bit much because they will drag LSU's ass all the fuck over BDS in a few weeks, it will not be fun to watch.

    Shane, try to have a little faith.

    Before the season, most on this board were predicting anything from 3-5 losses this year--realizing we'd lost a shit ton on defense. And, man, it has hurt, as has the continued tendency to give up quick scoring drives at the ends of halves and games.

    But then, our offense was better than expected--only to have Mett doing his best Jarrett Lee impression last night.

    We're all disappointed because we'd be sitting at #5 in the BCS tonight, but in reality--we're right back where we were ranked in the preseason (where most people thought we'd be.)

    Overall, the coaches are doing a good job (though, I'm debating that seriously on the defensive side), and we're bitching tonight because we've been better than we thought we'd be.

    Actually, we are bitching tonight because we "saw" this team play better than we thought we'd be ... but, last night, they played worse than we thought they could.

    True. I sat back in disbelief most of the game, thinking that surely, we weren't playing as badly as it appeared.

    Sadly...we were.

    Us beating Alabama, a team 90% of the time LSU plays their best game against, is alot more realistic than the tiny dinosaur relatives getting saw's and mp5's and slaughtering cats, although now I'm not sure what would be more fun to watch...

    The only thing to look forward to for the game in bds, is if ms ex mccarron shows up. And maybe Verne gets suspended this time.

    Hence the maybe Verne gets the axe this time. I'll just assume its on CBS.

    That's what's so refreshing about you. Always finding the silver lining.

    I call it the golden reality.

    What bowl does the 4th place team in the west go to? Music city bowl welcomes Baton Rouge!
