I would bet that these kinds of things are merely fuel for Coach O to prove to himself how ignorant some folks can be. the man has proven more than capable of learning from mistakes...that is about as indicative of high intelligence as they come. Coach O has admitted he has made mistakes...and he obviously has learned from them. Making mistakes and repeating them is a sign of an idiot....learning from them is a sign of intellect.

LSU also benefits from the entire "y'all suck" mentality that is thrown their way from the rest of the SEC and CFB world. It is not as bad as LSU makes it seem but it is bad enough that it has created a serious community around the program which feeds off the slightest insult and does what is necessary to prove that shite wrong. Joe Burrow was the PERFECT candidate for this...dude didn't get the respect his talent obviously warranted...and he lit the world on fire to prove to himself they were wrong. As bad as I despise LSU as a UGA fan (and really have no issues with LSU other on the field and us losing to LSU LOL) you have to admit, at least to yourself, that something is working at LSU and at least part of that is the perecieved and real disrepect thrown their way....thay are making good use of both, damn their hides.
