needing a giant unbunching of their panties. It is the arse whipping. Giving up 50 points and losing by so much just has a stigma. If we would have played hard and lost 31-21, the anger on the board would not be nearly as much.

And it is really understandable. In a couple of days, people will cool off and life will go on.

I think it's going to take the defense to step up before it settles. Probably us, who lived throught the 90's suffering for LSU that are the most worried. Last night looked all too familiar.

Like 98 vs Georgia maybe? A season that started with a high ranking and went into the toilet starting with that game? The beginning of the end of the DiNardo era.

Amen! Offensive and defensive lines sucked. For all the domination they showed over us last night in EVERY phase of the game, the fact they HAD A RUNNING GAME and WE DIDN'T bothers me the most. Hey, I thought our offensive line was one of the best in the country? NOT! And a defensive line stingy on the run? NOT! Pressure the QB in passing situations? NOT! In short, NOT our year. We have lots of work to do.

It's that our D looked completely helpless, lifeless and confused.

Everything that was exposed last night was all shite we saw coming all year. Hopefully, we see some changes and we get out of this thing with no less than 3 losses and possibly end up with 2. Then, as soon as Les sees fit, he throws this fricking "co-coordinator" shite right out the window.

Except the coaching staff. Seriously starting to look Dinardo like. Guess I am gullible enough to harbor a slim hope that changes will be made, though I really know nothing will.

A bad loss, but these Tigers will be back.

Hopefully the team is feeling it too.

They got knocked down a peg or two last night. I think it will be for the best in the long run.

Everything is still in front of us. If we win out, we can play for the SEC title. Every game is a must-win now, and hopefully the team intensity will rise to reflect that.

Reminded me so much of the '04 Georgia game, coming off a National Championship, new players at positions that had been manned by some great/experienced ones the year before. Ended up 9-3 (a realistic record for this year.) Once those '04 players gained experience looked what followed over the next 3 years, 34-6 and a National Championship.

One thing that did piss me off was what I feel showed a lack of discipline (im in my 50's and old school) by our D. Down by 20 and tackling a Florida player after he broke off a 15 yard run, jumping up and beating your chest and doing a dance.
