    Yes but it was a time consuming drive and that takes an effect on stamina and it gave them an extra possession and even more when our inept offense couldn't kill the clock at 9-0 It was a bad decision and if you think it didn't have an effect im sorry but your wrong.

    Yes you are right , The problem is they dominated the line of scrimmage with some of the best 4 and 5 star talent in the nation/ They are no. 1 for a reason. That's why we needed to limit the time our defense was on the field

    Told you E ran the plays all the plays he could run. Thats my answer I would have done the same thing even the drop back play near our endzone. He tried all the passing plays you can imagine he tried all the running plays you can imagine. Threw every pass you could throw every run we could run. Open your eyes your mind Bama is a super college team. No one is going to beat them. We beat everyone else we played but Fla and could have beat them. What the fuck else do you want from this team Miles left us? This team is 2 recruiting classes away we are not there yet. Jeaux is good but new our RB's are good but Bama has 3 better backs. Our WR's are young talented but our OL couldn't hold up long enough to mount a better pasding offense. We have one TE the other 2 are out.

    With all that Bama for the first time this year had to keep most all of its first team in the whole game. Wake up you are wrong dead wrong about E.

    I think you're the only idiot saying that.

    It doesn't matter if he did or not. It's a no win question. You would criticize it no matter what he responded with.

    I had a feeling the ticking timebomb would go off. Could the play calling have been better? Probably. However, LSU was DOMINATED on the line. Our OL can't block, we knew this coming in. I expected it to be close. I didn't think Bama would be this good. Our OL is nowhere near championship material. Miles slacked for a while there. O is trying to bring in the players we need but it's a long journey. If O can continue to keep the top instate talent here, that's a huge step going forward.

    I'm not saying I feel E is a great OC, but I think he doesn't have much to work with due to an OL that can't run or pass block. Most of our rush yards are on big plays. We don't get enough of those consistent 3-5 yards.

    Thanks a breath of reality and reason among a blabbering gang that can't see what's in plain sight, we need more talent period end of story. The fact that Bama kept the starters in the whole game tells you we challenged Bama better than anyone yet we lost by 29 points.

    Ensminger has now been OC 3 times vs Bama (08 Auburn, 2016 LSU, 2018 LSU).

    His offenses have scored a grand total of 0 points collectively.

    So how many more games would we have won with another OC this year? Maybe one? Maybe we lose one with a new OC.

    Didn't Ensminger not want the job to begin with?

    Right and we have a short term solution likely to change again next year with another built in excuse.
