    It's interesting to think that each season prob had 3-4 games that were decided by one or two plays. This year could have been 9-3, while it also could have been 5-7. Had we gone 9-3 with a bowl win, we'd have the same record as last year. Every season is fragile in the SEC. 8-4 doesn't sound so bad considering the season we had and looking at other teams like aTm, South Carolina, Florida. I'm not happy about 8-4 but it isn't the end of the world if a horrible season by our standards is 8-4.

    Next year could be 8-4, or 10-2, or 6-6. Some of it luck, some coaching, some on the players...its unpredictable. I'm gonna try not to lose too many years of my life complaining about it and just enjoy the 15 year run that we have (15 straight 8+ win seasons in a row). Of course I say that but I'll still be just as pissed as everyone after a loss.

    Nor I after my cardiologist telling me to chill out.
    I just get frustrated and pissed at our offensive strategy/philosophy or lack thereof.

    LSU has only one strategy and it is the most frustrating and annoying strategy. I could call the plays for LSU and the only coaching I have ever done is Madden. It's a joke and every D coordinator in the league looks forward to playing LSU.

    It's called hyperbole.
