Brian Kelly really dominated these reporters

Kelly calling the reporter “spoiled” like the media is supposed to root for the program and their success.

It was a completely valid question. LSU has scored 17, 23 and 20 points through 3 games despite returning of the best QB’s in the country. Their rushing game is an averaging awful 3.7 yards per carry.

Kelly's right and he's too sensitive as well.

i liked this from Kelly.  Media acts like they know it all but he is right give the kids credit for a SEC win.

These LSU games look like vintage Les Miles type of victories.  Suffocating defense but 3 yards and a cloud of dust on offense.  Compare that to LSU teams from 2019-2023.  High flying offenses and defenses that couldn't stop a nosebleed.  It seems so hard to have both an elite offense and elite defense in the same season now.  If you fix one side by changing defensive staff and using the portal, the other side of the ball suffers and vice versa.  Some of that is because by the time the weaker side is fixed, the players that made the stronger of the two units so good are off to the NFL or out of eligibility.

Basically true. They haven't beaten anyone currently ranked. They can't run. Nuss is hardly top notch. Kelly should have followed the spoiled comment by telling them they simply don't know what they're talking about.

They’re the #3 team in the country. They’re getting credit. Very arguably too much credit.

You just had DJ Lagway throw 5 interceptions and only scored 20 points at home. A week after you scored 23 points against Louisiana Tech.

It was a legitimate and valid question and Kelly had no right to blow up on the dude like that.

The biggest issue I see is a lot of coaches think the media and reporters asking them questions should be fanboys and bow down after every game.

Does seem like whack a mole. 2019 LSU defense was sufficient and peaked at the right time. But 2020-2024 was bad for sure. 
 

LSU’s resume is the most inflated in the country right now imo. They’ve benefitted from wins over 2 of the most overhyped teams in the preseason, who clearly have offensive issues.

UGA looks better to me for sure off of the Tennessee win.

This is true, but there's a way to ask without being too confrontational immediately after the game. Guys are still amped.
