    What is the real story? I am just getting around to ask this question after the longest week of my life. What was said? What was done? What adjustments were made? Does anyone know what our coaching staff or captains did? What kind of resposibility was taken and by whom? My head still hurts and the knot in my stomach is probably permanent.

    Hey Salty it is straight from Nick Saban on dolphins insider. I miss that guy. Not that I have anything against Lou Tepper, I just miss having Saban in total control of our defense.

    I think I would end up in prison if I lived in knoxville right now. I can't imagine how bad your week must have been. To answer your questions, I would recommend going back and reading some of the post last week. Safe to say, that loss pissed off many people in the state. I don't think it would have been as bad if we had not have blown a 21 pt lead. Keep your chin up over there.

    Simple.. UT put in a qb who could hit his wideouts... LSU went into ball-control, prevent...

    The truth is usually best defined by simple words...

    The ultra conservative offensive plan backfired. If our OL had managed to get a little push and allow our backs to get a few first downs, it would have worked. A lot of posters (and most of the fans at the game) have expressed their dismay at the decision to play for OT with 2 minutes left. We were deep in our own territory and it's a call Miles felt was the best one. If he had gone the other way and JR throws a pick leading to a game winning Tennessee field goal, you can bet that the same people would have screamed bloody murder. The coach has to make decisions. This time they didn't work, but any criticism is 20/20 hindsight. Warranted sometimes, but hindsight nonetheless.

    Hey man, I grew up in Birmingham as an LSU fan. I took it throughout my entire childhood..........I fought so many Bama and Auburn kids............after I took off my LSU satin jacket of course.
