Do the players mail it in for the rest of the season?

Teams have given up on coaches before to just go through the motions on the field. We have certainly had that at A&M once or twice.

Will they feel so loyal to Les that they just cat bring themselves to give a rip about making his departure look like the spark they needed?

I'll hang up and listen.

Possibly. Most of the staff is still intact though and I think Orgeron can get them fired up.

I have no doubt the defense is going to still play well. No idea what to expect out of the offense.

Fournette's "handlers" will tell him to shut it down.

I feel like the players love him and we're ready for him to go at the same time. Why else carry him off the field last year?

Legit question though.

They didn't at USC for Orgeron, so I'm hoping for the same reaction from the players.

Yes because if Sumlin had just been fired mid season that wouldn't be a hot topic on this board.

They have mailed it in vs Arkansas every year because "it's not a rivalry"

Guess what, dipshit? You guys are the headline this week. It's not like people want to keep hearing about Arky not being able to get past us (though they will eventually) or how Tennessee keeps scraping by.

Get used to it for a while. It's your turn in the barrel.

Probably. Fournette is just trying to make it to April without getting hurt any worse.

I'd be OK with Fournette getting a full recovery and then only getting about 15 carries max per game. No reason to run him so much at this point.

They won't.

It was an emotional day for them, the way miles and Orgeron handled it together turned it into positive emotion. I think you see a new fire, at least until more adversity later in the season. That's when we will find out what O is made of.

Dude, y'all just fired your coach midseason. There's going to be a lot of LSU talk. Get used to it.

Except LSU is paying for his schooling in return for him playing football.

I think they'll play better. No pressure, just play.
