Base, I think a lot of us wrote off the season from the start. Most of the predictions on here were for a losing season - which I don't recall happening before. LSU was fools gold, but with all the adversity this year those of us who tend to be optimists look for the good and signs of progress instead of beating dead horses. Doesn't make losing any easier, but like you have to do after a loss you put it behind you and start looking ahead.
