Anyone saying they honestly predicted he’d be a coach of the year candidate would be lying.

Don't get me wrong, he'll have success.

He just won't have the game you think he'll have. I don't think we give up the big pass plays that Bama has hurt people with this year.

It will be fun to watch.

Maybe.
I remember in 1997 an undefeated Florida team, averaging 49+ PPG came into a raucous Tiger Stadium and lost. They were thought to be invincible- defending national champs, 27 consecutive SEC wins and the undisputed king of college football. Corso said on Gameday something like "LSU's only chance was if a hurricane came to Baton Rouge."
The football is shaped oddly and bounces in unpredictable ways.

That's why they the play the game.

9-3, yawn. After Bama wins another title and fans think of 2018, it will be known as the year that Bama fielded the greatest team ever and ignorant LSU fans proclaimed their Bama butthurt to the world via billboards.

Arkansas, Arkansas State, Louisville, Tennessee, Missouri, ULL. That's your schedule. No doubt Alabama is good, but the schedule is soft and we don't know their flaws yet. You know why LSU has flaws? They played three top 10 teams and five ranked ones.

I see you’re already trying to make your one relevant game as impressive as possible because of your weak arse schedule.

About that meat grinder of an LSU schedule...

Exposing weak teams, breaking others, trouncing number two, a solid win over another ranked team, and a one-possession loss to number eleven away when we’re their Super Bowl.

You’ve played ATM. That’s it.

LSU has a slight chance but Bama will most likely win. If LSU pulls it this becomes a storybook season, but if not OP makes a valid point. This is already a very successful one and the program seems to be in a good position moving forward.

I think the game will be a little closer, but agree Tua is special and it's a tall task to beat a Saban team w that guy under center- although crazier things have happened and that atmosphere will be a factor. That and what may be the best secondary in the nation.

I tried to have no expectations for O. Like the average fan I wanted the splashy hire, but once O was given the job I figured may as well see what the guy does. I think he really needed success this year to lead into what he does best- the recruiting trail. He has done many things to make the program more exciting to 18 year old kids and as long as he proves he can win I think his ceiling may be higher than anyone expected.

Y’all may win but you won’t boat race this team. Yalls strength is passing. Ours is pass defense. Bama, if they win, will only win by 10pts.

But I think LSU wins by 2-3pts.

30+ point differential. LSU is getting boat raced next week. I’m firmly on record with that.


Quoted for future ridicule.

You won’t win by 30. I’ll put $500 on that.

They are gonna finish no worse than 9-3 and most likely will finish at 10-2. Win the bowl and 11-2 looks good in O's second year. Some nice wins in there and ran the offense without an elite 5 star running back. Have a lot returning next year and should bring in a great freshman class plus get Chaisson back. If I were a tiger fan I would be ok with those results and would expect even more next year. Coach Orgeron has dominated expectations from this team. Nobody expected a potential 11 win season.



I don't know your angle with this post, but I agree with most of it. Don't know what will happen a week from today, but there's no shame in losing to Bama. It's just a shame we didn't do better for the past 7 years when y'all didn't have such an elite QB.

Bama has been very very good and always hard to beat, but you and I both know that with a legit coach at LSU (not Miles, in other words), this thing wouldn't be so lopsided lately.
Coming out of the 2004-2008 timeframe, LSU should have been toe to toe with Bama all the way through today, but Miles prevented that.

Around here, most of us are pretty much over it. And happily surprised that O's strengths, so far, are proving enough to overcome his weaknesses and make us competitive.

You doofus, LSU has the most top 25 wins of any team in the country right now. How about actually looking at LSUs schedule before trying to talk shite about it.
