LSU does play better when expectations are low, we've always enjoyed being the underdog.


There is little evidence for this. Aside from 2003 (which was not a Les Miles team), point me toward some evidence that LSU plays better when expected to lose.

The only possibility I see is 2009, and we were OK. We went 9-3 but came really close to being 6-6.

I think you're thinking a little too hard

When I say most LSU thing ever I'm refering to winning games despite poor clock management (see Tennessee 2010 and Ole Miss 2009), the fake field goals, going for it on 4th down, the bar-fighting QB, ect, ect, ect

Basically, I think of LSU as the SEC's crazy uncle from Lou-weez-ziana who's a roaring good time until his pisses on the carpet
