The 3 WR set change saved the night. And the coaches did it. So why are you so bent out of shape? Had the screens been caught, and the TE's executed their passes, then we wouldn't have had to move to the 3 WR Singleback and shotgun formations. Unfortunately our youth and inexperience didn't let us execute from the I, which is historically where we thrive, but we also proved that our offense can respond to coaching adjustments, no matter how drastic, and gel. It's the first game. Chill. There will be frustrations, but we beat a damn good football team without half the best CB duo in the nation and the DLine playing with essentially both hands tied behind it's back. Don't worry, be happy. Tigers win.

Why does A&M put up a lot of points? They play the spread. The whole point of their game plan is to outscore the opponents. Sometimes that makes it look like you're dominating i.e. 52-28, but a lot of the time when you're playing big boy SEC teams, especially LSU, it doesn't freaking work It's why LSU doesn't lose to A&M, and why A&M doesn't win the West.

It's because of what we play. We don't do it West Coast, we don't run the spread. We beat the shite out of people until we come out on top. We try to keep our offense on the field so the spread teams aren't on the field as long, and our defense shuts them down while they are. It's a better system. It's why Bama does it too. It means we don't always lead the whole time, it meas the wins won't be pretty, but they're wins. Ridiculously more often than not, the W is what happens.

Would I like to have a little more misdirection and play action? Sure. Would I like the TE's to catch the ball and Jennings to complete his screens so that the I isn't a one dimmensional formation? Sure. Would I like to see more designed quarterback runs ? Absolutely.

But it's the first freaking game for a young team, and if you don't think that Wisky was a damn good team you're wrong. That was a blueprint on how to beat LSU, a brilliant one. And they executed it, but they coudn't EXECUTE THE ENTIRE GAME. LSU outlasts. We are strong, and we know it.

Also watch that A&M game again. The SCar defense was not ready at all. There was NO communication. LSU would have scored on them almost as much as A&M, and SCar wouldn't have scored nearly as much on us.

So stop being the 4 year old who wants what the other kids have, because the shiny toys suck, I promise.

You're giving Miles 8 years to get three wins against Saban, while only providing Freeze two years to get three wins. Nice try. Let's have an equal playing field...last two seasons, both are 0-2 against Saban. There. See how that makes sense, while 3 regular season wins out of 2 seasons doesn't? Hope you're adding a few brain cells as we go along. quote:And your current starters have not beat MSU Bo Wallace, Vince Sander, Aaron Morris, I'Tavius Mathers, Jaylen Walton, CJ Johnson, Isaac Gross, Denzel Nkemdiche, Sederius Bryant, Senquez Golson, Trae Elston, and Cody Prewitt have all beaten MSU. You're not very good at this, huh? quote:I guess you don't expect to win the Egg Bowl this year with that logic. This is too easy. How old are you? 19 Like, I said. You were just proven 100% wrong with facts. 12, over half(by the way this is going, I'm not even sure if you know how many offensive and defensive players are on the field at one time), of our starters have beaten MSU...and were starters at the time(well, technically you can only count one of Mathers/Walton). quote:Yes...the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries.

Dickriding Alabama...the LSU motto. Congrats on your 9 wins against Tennessee...LULZ...sorry...that's funny. quote:Ahhhh....the life of an OM fan. Let's forget about our ugly history and focus on one lucky win. You mean our history of having the same number of National Championships, same bowl wins, and higher bowl win percentage than LSU? I mean, the post season is all that matters...and Ole Miss leads LSU in 1 of the 3, while LSU leads in 0 of the 3. The number 0 is becoming a common thing in reference to LSU in this thread. quote:Trust me, Iv'e been to the grove and I'm more athletic than 99% of the preppy douche-bags I've encountered there. Ahhhh, so you are one of those jealous as frick GDI's. Gotcha. quote:The women are hot (but slightly overrated IMO) I guess you got the "what the frick is this creep staring out" glare from most of the girls? Yeah, class usually turns off your type. quote: but the guys are the dorkiest looking fricks I've ever encountered outside of Tulane fans. Why? Because they don't wear camo cargos and the classic LSU yellow gameday t-shirt with the tiger on the front? quote:LSU has the lead in the 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 95 100 history against OM. Go frick yourself boy. But do they lead in what matters? See above. Congrats on taking an early lead. That statistic isn't as good as you think it is. That's a "win early" statistic that can't change until the other team catches in wins. I wouldn't expect you to understand common logic though.

It wasn't fair of him to count the 3-5 and 0-2 evenly, and it is an exaggeration to call it three centuries, although literally true. The point he was trying to make, is that historically (and currently) if you were objective, and had to pick a team to beat Bama out of LSU or OM, it'd be smarter to pick LSU generally (not every year, but our program has done better against them, and since that's the current argument, lets stick with it, we'll talk about TN later), if you had to pick, try and argue that one.

The post season is not all that matters. The regular season is the point of playing. It's about a season of triumphs and losses and fun, not just one game (don't get me wrong, that one game is important, but not the end all be all) LSU has won just as many bowl games as Ole Miss, but Ole Miss has a higher win percentage? So LSU has been to more games, even if they lost? If the post season is all that matters then going and losing still has to be better than not going at all. Also Ole Miss hasn't won a Natty since schools were integrated. I feel like that counts for something.

I'm sorry not everyone in my state can argue.

All that being said, LSU did not get up for the Ole Miss game and y'all beat us. And that counts. We never get that one back, so congratulations for being the better team that week.

But do not pretend that because you played better by one field goal in your own house that weekend you were the better team overall last season (against Bama, or anyone else), because Auburn, A&M, and MSU have something to say, and UGA would too if y'all had played. And don't pretend you're going to Waltz into Death Valley and not have the Tigers sick their teeth in your neck and not let go for 60 minutes after what y'all did to us last year. It'll be a fun game, see you in the Valley. (FWIW, y'all are our homecoming game. Now THAT is confidence.)

Move Mizzou over to the West. UNC and WVU in the East.

When/if Jamal Adams comes to play here, will you think he'll be effing over Texas, or A&M? No, you'll be happy we got a recruit. Same goes for all of the Texas boys we take EVERY SIGLE FREAKING YEAR. Yes, Texas is different story because it has multiple big programs and a heck of a lot more kids, but it's still the same idea. There a reasons those kids come to LSU and there are reasons that kids, yes even kids from Louisiana every now and the, go to Bama. In every situation are they good reasons? No, but I'm willing to bet most of the time it's for good reasons (pay for play is a thing everywhere, not just when things look suspicious). Am I sad to see Hootie go? Of course, it breaks my heart when people born and raised here don't bleed purple and gold, but this is more than about just being your home state hero. Granted that should be a factor but it's not the only one. So I say "Roll Hootie Roll" whenever he isn't playing us, and when he does, lets show him we're still alright without him. Geaux Tigers. Same for CRob. We didn't even offer Simms a scholarship, I don't believe, but either way, it doesn't matter.
