I don't know what to think about Saturday's game against the Vols. My gut tells me that the same team that showed up at Auburn and Florida is probably the one that will show up in Tenn. My heart wants the Tigers to show the rest of the nation what they are truly capable of. You see, I'm torn.
I am having a difficult time with the idea that LSU's best win happens to be against ULL. WTF? After Saturday, LSU could turn out to be the most under-achieving an overrated team in the country. The lackluster offensive production in the last two road games is enough to give the most rabid Tiger fan pause. Will they kick it into high gear, or will the same team that dropped the two previous CBS games show up? I truly don't know. I hope after I return from the little Purple Tiger's soccer games Saturday, that I will be pleasantly surprised. I couldn't think of a better way to finish this crappy week, than with a quality win in Tennessee.
If Les Miles ever wants to catch a break in Baton Rouge, then he had better have his team ready to play in front of 100,000 Rocky Tops Saturday. I have been trying to give the man the benefit of the doubt this season, but he makes it extremely hard to feel good about the coaching this season.
Memo to Les: At this point your team has nothing to lose and everything to prove. Have the tigers ready to play and get your in-game adjustments right on Saturday or you'll see some very ugly things down the pike. After 'Little Nicky,' Tiger fans are not as forgiving for failure. We have come a long way since DiNardo. We do not, I repeat DO NOT want to go back to the days of Hallman and DiNardo. I personally like to be in the top ten every season. I don't want to go to future LSU games and see the stadium 3/4 full. I want 92,000 screaming fans in the stadium every Saturday. This will not happen if the Tigers continue to 'lay eggs' against quality teams.
Now that's off my chest; GEAUX TIGERS!
