He hasnt been awful, but 19-8 averages out to 9.5-4 a season. I didnt think UF fans would "approve" of that as much as they did.
If you count the Presbyterian game that was cancelled last season, it's 10-4 two seasons in a row. That's better than anybody they've ever had not named Spurrier or Meyer (both likely HOFers).
He also took over a program that had gone 11-13 (7-9) in its previous two years. I could see them getting frustrated if he can't get past FSU or eventually bring home the SEC crown. But not every team can win 12+ games every year.
If the coach that replaces Nick Saban can come in an win 10 games a year, I'll be thrilled.

I never said Bama was scared of coach O or LSU. Also didn't blame the loss on the refs.
I said you inferred that Bama was scared. Look up the word infer. I was referring to the following comment made by you -
quote:
Alabama probably isn't laughing either after winning because of their buddies in stripes help on the QB run.
Which strongly would infer that Alabama has something to fear. You also clearly blame the loss on the refs. Unless my reading comprehension is so bad that "winning because of their buddies in stripes help" means something other than winning because of the refs.

You can keep riding on Les all night long or accept the fact that Coach O was what we needed
We needed to move on from Les. We didn't need to settle for a DL coach no one else wanted, when we have a top 10 program nationally.
I'm all for rooting for Coach O, obviously. But you're lying to yourself or dumb if you try to tell yourself O has done anything magnificent yet. He's signed a top class, which is to be expected here. His on the field results, 6-2 with the most talented LSU team since 2012, were nothing spectacular considering our only impressive win was an outmatched Louisville and we lost to a depleted and outmatched Florida team. And you can blame the UF loss on Guice, but we should have never even been in that situation. If it was Les, we would have his head for it.

Macs 10 wins in 2015
New Mexico State
East Carolina
Kentucky
Tennessee(9-4)
Ole Miss-Good win
Mizzou
UGA(10-3 they fired coach)
Vandy
South Carolina
FAU
So if you look, to get to 10 wins took 1 good win, and 2 non awful wins.
Les did it constantly towards the ends. Winning 10 games in the current climate of college football doesnt mean what it used to.

Eh, I wouldn't exactly compare winning 10 games in the East to winning 10 games in the west

Just blankly saying "he won 10 games" doesn't mean anything

He literally hasn't done a single thing that Les wouldn't have been able to do. He beat shitty teams, lost a close home game to Bama, and lost a game we had no business of losing to Florida. He recruits well.
Sounds exactly like Les Miles. But he talks like us, so he's going to be awesome. I was all for firing Les, but we got botched that hire in a way so bad that the SEC should all be laughing at us.

But does that context really need to be stated on this board. We all understand the west isn't easy. West certainly wasn't as up as it has been in previous years but still.

Well, you said wrong because I didn't infer shite. Some IDIOT said the whole SEC should be laughing at LSU. I listed the SEC teams who got their arse kicked by LSU who aren't laughing. I also listed Florida whose only touchdown came against an uncharacteristic defensive breakdown by Aranda's defense. I also said since Bama won 10-0 against LSU being led on offense by a TE's coach also isn't laughing. "LAUGHING AT" as the idiot stated and being scared are two totally different things.

You don't think the blatant holding calls that were missed on the TD run were beneficial to Alabama?

I'm not attacking you. I am pointing out how stupid your post was. I know what I am saying, it is you that doesn't understand or totally lacks comprehension skills.

I'm not saying the guy is great, but I can see why his fans approve of job thus far.
Frank Beamer averaged 8-4
Bill Snyder averaged 8-4
Phil Fulmer averaged 9-3
Bobby Bowden averaged 9-3
Gary Patterson averaged 9-3
Mike Gundy is around 9-4
Mark Dantonio is around 9-4 @ michigan state
All those guys are consider to be really good coaches and each of them didn't exactly play in the SEC West.
If you can basically guarantee 9 or 10 wins every year, it only takes a couple more games in one particular season to go your way and you'll be hoisting a trophy

TBH that game was on Donte. Instead of tackling, he went for the ball and lost, giving up their only TD, and he fumbled, giving them a cheap FG. That was 10 of their 16 points.
