Someone please save LSU from Les Miles

You should go back to being a State Penn fan. When you beat Alabama and you still have two losses then that is a bad season in SEC land.

I am utterly devastated over the loss to South Carolina, LSU and Auburn. It is completely unacceptable.

wouldn't it anger you if people started bashing saban over this season? that's what i don't understand, and i don't agree with it. i don't get why people are unhappy with miles at all. i think the expectations are just too high for these sec teams. some of the fans are really putting me off the sport.
and i'll always root for penn state. maybe that's one of my frustrations-psu is a storied team for many reasons-and look how many coaches they've run thru.
i'm disappointed we lost yesterday, i was disappointed we lost to auburn. i thought we should have won that game. but i'm not going to lose my head over it, or holler that the coach needs to go. that's ridiculous.

I think the focus should be on McElwain. He should thank his lucky stars the defense hid some of the flaws on offense last year. He was exposed as an average OC this year.

I'm hoping he gets a head coaching gig but any sane person wouldn't offer him a dime.

Also when you get the recruiting classes like LSU and Alabama do the expectations are automatically national championship contention and at worst a BCS bowl.

Striving for excellence is a good thing, Zig. You can go back to being a hardcore Penn State fan but they're losers. In fact I think some of their fans are turned on by old men who don't know when to quit.

lol
it's a shame we lost that qb prospect to baseball. he probably would have been good.
and i get striving for excellence. i don't get bashing the coach. but it sure has been quiet since we lost to aub, before yesterday that is. i mean, it's not like we've got jerry dinardo still.


i look for malzahn to get a head coaching job. i told some ark fans he could come back here and coach for them when petrino goes to dallas! they didn't find that funny, while conceding that petrino certainly won't retire here.
but then, has a coach retired in the sec since bear?

Any real LSU fan knows the answer to your question, and it is a coach who is in the college football hall of fame who is from LSU, and his name is Cholly Mac.........

[dagolfer33]

oh Im sorry you said since Bear.....well ......Vince Dooley. Pat Dye as well. Gene Stallings.

He is the greatest college coach in history?

Wow. You are a true Penn State fan.

I guess if your standards of a coach don't include championships then yes.

[horseofcourse]

You know, him, robinson, Bowden, Bryant, and of course Saban, Meyer, all in the debate...
