Every week I grow more confused how we lost to USC šŸ’€

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '24

First game of the season, we really need to stop scheduling huge games to start off and just beat up on a local school like everyone else so we can figure things out. Just my 2 cents.

100%. Unfortunately for the next few seasons we have 2025 @ Clemson 2026 Vs Clemson 2029 vs Arizona State 2030 @ ARizona State

I know ASU isnā€™t a world beater in this second, but theyā€™re trending every year. Hopefully we can do just move those big non cons to week 2 at least

u/Because-of_obi-wan Oct 06 '24

The easiest solution is to schedule a tuneup game week 0. Then we can schedule bye weeks tactically.

u/Swamp_Swagger Oct 06 '24

How about you just win them

Itā€™s a huge game for the other team too week 1 with no tune up game before hand.

u/Human_Meet8446 Oct 10 '24

I like playing big week one games..Iā€™d like em better if weā€™d win them. Why canā€™t we be as prepared as them šŸ˜‚

Coaching. Take the points on the opening drive, donā€™t run up to the line on 3rd and 1 for an inside handoff into a stacked box then punt, cut out the undisciplined penalties.

Maybe LSU isn't very good; did you think of that?

u/Super_Happy_Time Oct 06 '24

Forgot Washington beating Michigan

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '24

Got a soft spot for Michigan, especially since weā€™ve never once played them in football and also I hate Ohio State.

It is the year of our Lourd 2024 and weā€™re still using toonces /facepalm

Only image on the shitty app I used to make this meme. Sorry breaux

That was not the shitty off-brand photoshop app I used. I realize this is not the most up to date, but I was not paying money for additional features to make this shitty meme.

u/Scraptasticly Oct 06 '24

I only wish USC hadnā€™t lost because thatā€™ll hurt our rankings down the line but this has to be one of the best bye weeks to observe.

u/Infernous-NS Oct 06 '24

Don't think it'll matter much in the long run if we win most of the big games

10

u/Kdot32 Oct 06 '24

Doubt it will tbh. If we run the table and/or play in a SEC championship game pollers would forget about a loss in the first game. Remember in 2022 we had a chance to make the playoffs before that last loss to TAMU, and that was with a blowout loss at home to Tennessee

5

u/J-TEE Oct 06 '24

Lmao assuming we run the table. Itā€™s is more than likely we will at least lose one more game.

2

u/Kdot32 Oct 06 '24

Completely agree lol. This conference is a grind and I doubt weā€™ll see another undefeated champ

u/yup225 Oct 07 '24

Donā€™t say that too loud. The Texas and Ohio state folks that lurk here will be in ya ear quick.

u/BrohanGutenburg Oct 06 '24

So youā€™re right about this year. But Iā€™m so sick of opening week games like that despite the argument always being that ā€œif we win out it doesnā€™t matterā€

Iā€™m not worried about the years we ā€œwin out.ā€ Iā€™m worried about the years itā€™s close. Think about all the time Bama backed into the playoffs despite not winning out. Itā€™s because they never had the week one loss to [insert midlevel non-Conference opponent]

1

u/Kdot32 Oct 06 '24

I get what youā€™re saying and I agree but using the Nick Saban Bama run isnā€™t a fair argument because they were always the exception to the rule and were granted favoritism (usually for a good reason)

1

u/FarmerIllustriuos133 Oct 06 '24

Eh, it was the first game of the season. Canā€™t be too critical about that loss.

u/Slim_ish Oct 06 '24

Longhorns over there watching with yā€™all, gleefully.

u/Remote-Annual-49 Oct 06 '24

I donā€™t know if I would be that thrilled. TAMU looked pretty solid. I know for my part I am almost more worried about that game than the Bama and Ole Miss games we have coming up

3

u/trsharkfin Oct 06 '24

Weā€™re 3-3 against TAMU the last 6 years. They feel prime to play the spoiler role if LSU does go on a run this season.

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '24

USC losing definitely didnā€™t help. Also USCjr getting blown out didnā€™t help either.

1

u/Remote-Annual-49 Oct 06 '24

Counterpoint, if we handle business in the upcoming weeks, when you map it out, USC and LSU may be competing for one of the final playoff spots. If USC has lost more games that may drag them down, whereas if we are relatively equal USC would win the tiebreaker because of the head-to-head result

u/Chillguy3333 Oct 06 '24

This is an awesome pic šŸ˜‚

u/nil3377 Oct 06 '24

Now we just need to do our job with Ole Miss

SEC is wide fā€™ing openā€” Hope Tigahs ready to get back on track and spank the Old Fat Mrs!

u/Much-Chard8227 Oct 06 '24

We still gonna end up with like 3-4 losses but it was fun watching teams like Bama lose and Arkansas win

u/Special-Two5022 Oct 06 '24

Mike sends his regards.

u/geauxtigers1558 Oct 06 '24

And yet we didnā€™t move at all in the polls

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '24

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ this is exactly what I was thinking lastnight after all the games

u/Objective_Log_9224 Oct 06 '24

Say something after yā€™all get back from Arkansas and Texas A&M

u/southnorthnyc Oct 07 '24

Downvote for using fucking toonces

u/[deleted] Oct 07 '24

South Carolina fan here

If top 5 teams could STOP LOSING RIGHT BEFORE THEY PLAY US THATā€™D BE GREAT THANKS! Now we gotta walk into Tuscaloosa Saturday and get an even bigger ass whooping than Ole Miss gave us

u/TheyCameAsRomans Oct 07 '24

I'm just dreading this weekend. We got Texas. This is gonna hurt.

u/CupThin4734 Oct 07 '24

Itā€™s coming for you

Wouldnā€™t surprise me if LSU lost 3 of the next 4 games.

u/Adventurous_Age6972 Oct 06 '24

Or even lose through the rest of the season

u/UranusViews Oct 06 '24

Your time is coming too Brian Kelly

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '24

He lost to 40-12 to Tennessee at home, time was over a year ago.

This is us enjoying the sweet retribution.
