His orders are anti LSU...its that simple.


It appears that way for sure. Either that or he is just the Finebaum of ESPN...


Scratch that, he's worse than Finebaum. Finebaum just said recently LSU was the best team in the country. Smith refuses to say we are the best in our division.

What I want to know is, how long does it take for a so called "expert analyst" to be consistently wrong with predictions, analysis and commentary before he is fired?


at ESPN...... they will promote him.

I think he is still struggling with last year's Tenn. Game.

IMO, None of those talking heads want Les to suceed. Ever notice how they roll their eyes when taking about Les and smirk. Frick em all!


They consider him a clown, a buffoon and are pissed because he consistently outcoaches the media darlings. And they're pissed because they can no longer say that he's only winning because he inherited $aban's team.

So what gives? I've never seen someone who so ardently paints LSU in a negative way EVERY TIME he opens his mouth.
It's called his opinion. That's what he is paid to do, give his opinion not tell LSU fans what they want to hear.

F Robert Smith. No one will ever give LSU love on ESPN except for Mark May (sometimes), and Craig James (also sometimes).

That's alright, because Les Miles wins enough to make them all go get f'd.

I honestly hate robert smith. Everything about him just pisses me off from his lack of knowledge and hatred for LSU, to that fricking grin he has on his face when he speaks. He needs to be terminated.

It is is Mantra to say Bama is better than LSU, that Bama outplayed us, etc, etc, etc. Herbstreit says the same crap. Will make it all the more sweeter when we win it all!! I just want to hold them accountable in some way. At least send them a Post Card!!

Robert Smith is playing the part of contrarian for ESPN.

How boring would it be if no one commented this way? I don't think it's anything personal.

I'm convinced that winning a game actually no longer means anything in college football. I hate it when in these huge match up people say that the better team lost. In match ups between two teams so evenly matched the better team find a way to win the game. The better team doesn't miss 3 fg's the better team doesn't give the ball away twice. We might as well not play the games anymore and just put the "better team" in.

Sounds good to me.
We probably need to send a few other packages.

Pollack - SECCG gear to celebrate the win of UGA, again.

Bayless - Shaq gear.

Brad Edwards - LSUmatt pajamas (or something like that).

Can not wait until next week when Pollack homers GA against the Tigers. He broke his neck in Cincy but his balls remain in Georgia.

This is sad, but seemingly true. I guess Smith still insisting Bama is the better team really only impugns his credibility.

Let's see what his snide arse says on Jan 10 when the sun comes up and LSU is still undefeated and Bama has 2 losses. I'm sure he'll contrive some way that Bama is indeed still the better team, and would win a best of 5 setup lol

Yep, but we just need to keep takin it one game at a time method like we have and everything else will fall in place. When we finish, LSU will have gone through the toughest schedule that any BCS school has had to face than anyone. All the victories of Top teams we will have left in our wake will be one of the most impressive feats ever done, and Miles will shut all naysayers up.

ESPN and there clowns will have to come up with another routine to sidetrack Miles, and that will be hard for them to do!

Yea, I'm not into the "he hates LSU" bu this guy does.

I don't think I've ever seen him say one positive thing about LSU.
