Look, don't even start to make this about the officials, Les came with a shit game plan and it got outed quickly. Stubborn SOB never changed. @LaSalleAve was spot on. Taking applications now
I still love my Tigers the same, despite being disappointed. I will be amped up again for next weekend. However it is not being negative IMO to expect a team to be better prepared than LSU was tonight. Bama very well could have more talent but LSU did not play a smart game. That is my frustration. I also don't see Miles producing a championship culture.
What the actual fuck is this shit? I mean really? Of course you will "pull" for them. You may even Don a little P&G cheerleader outfit but end of the day it's nothing more or less than the rest of us. You can continue to lick Les' balls but he hamstrung his own team, AGAIN and the repercussions aren't even close to being reality. Carry on
ill admit I am pissed and should probably step away but I was raised by a coach and have been around coaches my whole life and our coaches did not give our team a chance to win this game with preparation and gameplan. We all knew our defense was going to give up some yards and be tired at the end. It was critical that our offense move the ball and keep their d on the field. Saban did exactly to us what we should have gameplanned for them. Short passes and run straight ahead. Every run was trying to get fournette outside when they knew the play before it happened. No misdirection in this offense. No quality play action short passing game. And the worst part of all of this is Bama was ripe for the taking. They really didn't impress me to the point other bama teams have in the past. The end was just a tired defense due to inept offense. Bama is not the team this year and we needed to take advantage of that. It pains me to say this because I love Les Miles as LSU coach but Saban is elite. Without him Bama goes back to beatable because Saban is that good. And I hate that sob but give the man his due.
I get all of this, and I respect it. I suppose I was really turned off by comments, like fuck you, Miles. Fournette shit the bed, etc. Dammit...teams lose. It sucks to lose, but I cannot stand a defeatist attitude to go along with it. We should have been better prepared and weren't. And it's incredibly disappointing. However, we knew (from game one) that we had some serious problems on special teams and defense. We knew that we were dangerously one-dimensional on offense, albeit with a stud RB. It all bit us in the ass tonight. And I hate losing to Saban...anybody but Saban. Well, except for A & M (because I live in Texas.)
Disappointed with the continual run the ball playcall , but it was a hell of a game that had its moments Interesting that when we scored, we scored quick (passing go figure) we just let their O on the field too long mo' tea please with extra sugar for all this bitterness
I'm very fucking disappointed that we lost. I'm disappointed that Les Miles was very clearly outclassed by Saban on a huge stage AGAIN. I'll continue to pull for LSU, I'll watch next Saturday, but this loss hurts. In my eyes it was monumental. A win could have signaled a change in the guard in the sec west, but instead we not only lost but looked awful in doing so. I don't have a lot of faith in Miles right now. Do I care too much about LSU football? YES. But maybe Miles can fix that for me. Get back to the Chollie Mac days when we were a decent team and tailgating was the highlight. I get it, you're a pumper. That won't ever be me.
I know you won't ever be a pumper, @lsu-i-like. It is what it is. Yes, we needed to win this game. I agree with that.
I thought the officials were paid by the p & g tonight, or at least Bama forgot to pay em. I thought it was an evenly reffed game.
