Dominated by 4th place SEC team

[solo]

Well, whether you hate the SEC or respect it, you gotta be glad we aren't playing in it right now. LSU finished 4th in the conference and just blew us off the field (at least to this point). 11 minutes to go in the 4th, we are down by 20 and have done nothing in the 2nd half.

Yet again, our BCS bowl is the least competitive.

We were lucky to be close at halftime. Total domination in the trenches in the second half by LSU. Have we had any defensive penatration this whole game????

Crum had a few tackles, I saw Brockington once or twice. Travis Thomas....was he on the field? I still say the LB play was the most disappointing, even compared to the endless completed deep passes.

Congrats to LSU on a dominating performance.

Nonetheless, Les Miles is an ignorant prick that appeared to talk with a mouth full of man spoo.

Just say your team played well and give props to your QB, don't make a backhanded stab at Brady. Classless a-hole. What should I expect from an Ann Arbor alum.

Bitter, yeah I'm bitter. I have whiplash. I'm gonna go ice down with the rest of the secondary.

How fast do we announce Minter is gone?

They were the 3rd place team from the SEC, Auburn was 4th.

Dude, we haven't had any defensive penetration all season.

No...they were 4th. Both Aubrun and LSU went 6-2 in the SEC. Both went 10-2. Auburn beat LSU head to head, placing Auburn in 3rd and LSU in 4th.

LSU would have won the SEC(West) if Arkansas had lost to Tennessee, and besides that, most SEC fans would tell you that LSU was the best team in the SEC this year.

Which was what it was forecast to be in the preseason. I'm disappointed with 3 losses but good teams and good coaches are supposed to exploit weaknesses like that. And they will continue to until we develop the talent. ND doesn't get to bring in JUCOs and plug them in as starters like UCLA did. I keep waiting for the chants of play the freshman but Prince's pass drop and Walls getting toasted may have kept those lips zipped.

Despite the infusion of new talent I didn't see any freshman remind me of Rocket or Tim Brown, much less Culver, Brooks, Watters, or an inkling of Bobby Taylor as a freshman. Young was the only bright spot. Aldridge has high school clipping and knee surgery. He also came in early and I can think of dozens of ND freshman RBs that made more of an impression. We need a lot of improvement in the offseason in a lot of areas. There's still a lot of ground to be made up for the shortcomings of CWs predecessors.
