    If we'd had the team we thought we'd have last spring, then 10-2 would've been a disappointment.

    However, with our losses and inconsistent play from Mett and the WRs, 10-2 is pretty good.

    I'm still scratching my head about wth has happened to our defense, though. Damn...

    The defense has been frustrating to watch. But hey, it's never boring!

    Yep, a 10-3 team that returned 10 starters in defense and 7 on the other side. Not having to play in the SECCG is another plus.

    I don't get the frustration. LSU finished #9 in total defense and #11 in scoring defense. This is a damn strong defense and the primary reason that we are a top-10 team.

    True one Red. Got a bunch of bumps and scrapes on both sides of the ball. Remember we had to play the # 10, 3, 20, 1 and 22 ranked teams in the nation (These are ranking when we played each team). The rest will do this team well.

    Disappointment! We could barely beat Auburn, Ole Miss, and Arkansas.

    With the talent level we had, we should have been playing for all the marbles.

    Just another year that the offense has let us down. Same old story.

    Same old song from the permanently discontent malcontent.

    Same old response by the "Les for mediocrity" campaign.

    94th nationally ranked in passing! 79th overall offense. Now that is OFFENSIVE for the sixth straight year.

    People who bitch about winning can't enjoy this game, maybe you should take up chess.

    People who seem to know what LSU "should have done" never seem to have any credibility.
