I hate saying a bowl win gives us 10 wins. 10 REGULAR SEASON wins is the bar at LSU.

We shouldn't move that bar. First year was a great start for BK, but we went backwards as a program this year due to this defense even with a generational talent at QB. Record could be the same, but this defense and where we are with recruiting on defense is a huge step back from year 1.

He and the LSU media keep chirping about "possibly having back to back 10 win seasons" and for some reason that bothers me. I feel like it is their way of moving the goalposts.

I know, Dear Facebook.

It bothers you that the staff is trying to motivate players for the bowl game?

In such a short post you were still able to prove your complete lack of understanding college football across the board.

Impressive.

Missouri and Ole Miss are getting attaboys for winning 10 regular season games

The standard at LSU is higher than that

Fans like you are the worst.

10 wins is 10 wins and to do it back to back during a rebuild is a better job than BK is getting credit for.

Literally nobody is saying this is what we should settle for but it’s still a good accomplishment

Would you rather be Florida or aTm?

No it isn't. Historically, LSU has a 65.3 win%. That's not ten games even in a 13 game season.

If I am being honest - and downvote all you want, but we over performed last year. With what we had, there was no reason for us to win the West.

With that being said, the bar was set as "SECCG" or bust, and that is a fair metric, but not when you inherit a dumpster fire.

Kelly has always been honest that next year is our best chance.

How many 10-win seasons does LSU have in its history?



My quick count is 14, which is the number after those wins during the Miles era were vacated. I think 17 with those wins intact. So, that’s 14 (17) out of 130-ish season, with the potential for 15 (or 18).

How exactly is 10 wins the bar? It’s definitely the bar on recent history, but it’s something special all together.

There has definitely been some moving goalposts here with posters setting the expectation at 9 wins next year.

Preach brother.

The bar is lowered with Brian Kelly because he can talk the talk.

But as he’s proven throughout his career he can’t win a big game

I would like to see 10 win regular seasons be RE-ESTABLISHED as the standard here, but let’s just all be fricking honest- the program hasn’t been there consistently for a long while now.

We had 8 10+ win seasons from 2003 to 2013. We’ve had only 3 in the 10 years since. Two coaches were fired over this. Ranting about a “standard” that hasn’t held in a decade is just kind of ridiculous.

I personally say that 2019 team was 15-0. I count all wins ( regular and post).

Therefore, 10-3 is consistent. If you want to whine that it SHOULD be 11-2 because Ole Miss game was a bad loss, I can understand. But, to act as if ALL games are not to be counted seems odd.

Some of you need to take a break for a while. Get some fresh air.

Something only 1 LSU coach (Miles, 6 times) has done more than once, has only been done once in the last 10 years (2019), Only 8 times in the last 23 years (since the 12 game seasons began) and only 10 times in LSU history is the bar?

1908 Edgar Wingard 10-0 no bowl game (we need to claim this )

1958 Paul Dietzel 11–0 W Sugar Bowl 10-0 Regular season
Since the twelve game seasons started.

2003 Nick Saban 13–1 11-1 Regular Season

2005 Les Miles 11–2 10-2 Regular Season

2006 Les Miles 11–2 10-2 Regular Season

2007 Les Miles 12–2 10-2 Regular Season

2010 Les Miles 11–2 10-2 Regular Season

2011 Les Miles 13–1 12-0 Regular Season

2012 Les Miles 10–3 10-2 Regular Season

2019 Ed Orgeron 15–0 12-0 Regular Season

Something Saban didn't do in 4 seasons with 12 regular season games. Orgeron did it with Burrow. Les did it a lot though.
