There's a better chance LSU goes undefeated than losing 8 games. The OP is out of his damn mind.

well, there's 5 AutoWins with Sam Houston, ULM, Miss St, New Mexico St, and Kentucky.


Any other year I would agree with you, but Ms. State returns a good portion of their roster and the law of averages says they are due to win one.

I think Arky and A&M are definitely wins and the Ole Miss game will be a struggle,


Agree LSU will struggle with OM, Arkansas isn't a definite win, LSU struggled to beat the worst 2 teams in Arkansas' history and Arkansas will be much improved this year.

I think the Wisconsin game will be a real indicator of where the season is going.


I'm not sure how big of an indicator it will be, Wisconsin has the advantage of knowing their identity and picking up where they left off last year. LSU will be a young team in search of an identity. Wisconsin winning this game won't be a shock, but it shouldn't have a large bearing on LSU becoming bowl eligible this season.

Which streak are you concerned about? Just getting to a bowl game or continuing to lose over half of them that you do go to?


If you are talking about Miles, he is 6-3 in bowl games. That is not losing over half, water head.

Every season...... You know LSU is good when your own irrelevant other in state college trolls. OM always sucks so no need even conversating. Wisconsin is no more verteran than we are and recent history suggest we have no problem beating A&M anywhere with the best player to come out of the school in a long long time, mayb ever in JF. Our secondary will be darn good, Lbers, if the DTs show up our D will be one of the best. If a QB is just good we win 10 or more if he isn't so good 8 or 9. I line our chances

Ole Miss has eclipsed 8 wins 4 times since 2000, this is actually a compliment considering the source. As an LSU fan I appreciate it but we're supposed to do better than that these days. Thank you and good luck to you guys in getting to that magical 8 win plateau again this year.

I don't see where I mentioned Lesticles?

And to those LSU fans offended by my 50% bowl win reference, I sincerely apologize. I meant 51.11% (23 wins in 45 tries). Congrats on your success.

From 0-10 how offended are we suppose to be?

It's pretty common to have ~50% bowl winning percentages for bigger programs. For example, tOSU stands at 44% and Notre Dame at 48%

It's easy to pad your bowl record with "easy" wins in Music City Bowls

You didn't say 50% Socrates, these were your exact words:

At least we are the 8th most prolific bowl program in CFB history.
Plus we are 9-5 in bowl games since 2000, and we are the ONLY team nationally to have a winning season and go to a bowl game EVERY YEAR THIS CENTURY.

Listed among the top 10 winningest bowl teams of all time are some of the usual college football suspects--USC and Alabama, Florida State and Oklahoma, Georgia and Auburn.
But there's also a surprise or two), and a few of the teams you might expect to be there (Ohio State, Notre Dame, Michigan) aren't.

Ole Miss, as it turns out, tops the list, with an all-time bowl record of 23-12-0 in 35 appearances. The rest of the top 10, ranked by winning percentage in a minimum of 20 bowl appearances, is as follows:

1. Mississippi: 23-12-0 (0.65714)
2. USC: 32-17-0 (0.65306)
3. Florida State: 25-14-2 (0.634415)
4. Oklahoma State: 15-9-0 (0.62500)
5. Syracuse: 15-9-1 (0.62000)
6. Oklahoma: 28-18-1 (0.60638)
7. Auburn: 22-14-2 (0.60526)
8. Alabama: 34-23-3 (0.59167)
9. Georgia: 27-19-3 (0.58163)
10. Penn State: 21-15-2 (.57895)

Anytime LSU travels to the state of Alabama there is always a chance for a loss. The sad thing is, it has nothing to do with our players or coaches or even the other team. Let's see if you Gumptards or Aubtards can figure out why. HD TV anyone!

LSU - 45 bowl appearances
Ole Miss - 35 bowl appearances (which is pretty remarkable considering what Ole Miss has done since their glory years of the late 50s-early 60s)

Kudos to winning 23 out of 35 though - that is impressive.

Kudos on winning the same number of bowl games as Ole Miss in 10 more chances - equally as impressive

Thank you. Math much? It's not less than half, by the way.
