I still can't believe it. Like one of the other posters, I think it's a nightmare and I just need to wake up. And to lose it this badly, this unexplainably? Play calling, QB play, OL - all different from the entire rest of the year. Why not stick to what worked in the all the previous games? I'm so upset, so disappointed. I'll be ok later, but DAMN, this could have been so good !!!!
I absolutely thought the same thing. I wish this were a nightmare that I could wake up from. The funny thing is that I had a dream that LSU lost due to Jordan Jefferson's inadequacy. I'm not saying that my dream has any relation and there is no superstition implied. It's just weird. Jefferson sucked far worse than he did in my dream. That's hard to believe too because he performed awfully in my dream. This is without a doubt the worst loss in LSU history.
The saddest thing is that I'm not even sad. I'm hugely disappointed. When the Saints lost to the Seahawks, I was sadden. Sadden because we actually put effort up until that run by Lynch. This team that showed up tonight doesn't deserve my sorrow or pain. But rather my disappointment and disapproval. Those seniors deserved better than this. The defensive players deserved more than this. The fans who paid damn good money to go deserved better. The state of Louisiana deserved better. The only upside to this is the added fuel that I hope they grow over the spring and summer. Geaux Tigers.
I know it smells of sour grapes, but I had a chance for a pair of $1500 tix to the game and passed--passed on $3000 worth of pure joy????? at attending. I am sure it was exciting for the LSU fans who were actually there, but what could they get from the game--what could they get behind & cheer for? Only the play of a gassed defense, valiantly holding Bama to FG's for most of their scoring? That would've been a long, sad, draining flight back to Arizona. So here I type, as disappointed as y'all but about $5000 worth of hard-earned filthy lucre still residing in my wallet. Think I'll go buy something nice for the wife tomorrow. GEAUX TIGERS 2012-2013 !!!
I blame CLM for this debacle. He and he alone is responsible. He failed to solve LSU's QB problem for years, and tonight is the end result of his failure on this issue. My confidence in Miles is severely shaken. Saban is clearly a superior football mind and football coach.
I wouldn't go that far I will say that miles clearly is one hard headed sob. They came up with one terrible phucking game plan and were bound and determined to make it work. Trouble is, it didn't.
Going into this game (rematch) we pretty much had everything to lose and nothing to gain. We needed to win this for the trophy obviously, but playing a team we already beat was suspect at best. This team was on the cusp of being one of the greatest ever. Had they won, we would be reading articles asking that very question right now. Instead. we finish #2 in both polls. Alabama had absolutely nothing to lose as people said they shouldn't even be here, and yet there they are. All of this is what could have been and what now is.
