    You are correct sir he did not adjust to the pass and didn't fight for position.

    And this is why miles will start Harris

    He would rather see his offense go 3 and out than take chances and possibly turn the ball over

    Love the action on this board and love the creative cuts to and from each other. All joking aside Harris should play this weekend with a few plays designed for his option and running skills for a change of pace. Would not put the pass into his package of plays. Etling should start and be taken out only if he is hurt or to put Harris in for option or wildcat plays. My last serious post for a while.

    I just want to see the short side option again. It worked that one time at Bama. I just know Miles is itching to break it out.

    Robidoux87 You call that a double?

    TOs are bad, uniformly. But one was a blind side strip, and one was a deep ball to a tall receiver in 1x1 coverage.

    What does a really bad TO look like? Harris' last throw vs. Wisconsin. Jefferson throwing it underhand to an Alabama defender. Anything Lee did his freshman season. Stuff like that.

    Sorry for the lack of clarity.

    I was referring to execution on the part of the coaches in that is possible to have a tough physical team with a run orientated offense, while at the same time mixing up formations, play calls, etc. in such a way to keep the other team off balance.

    Les seems to think that those things are inversely correlated.

    Les is in love with Brandon Harris. The more I think about it the more I'm starting to lean towards Etling starting simply because 100,000 Tiger fans would go absolutely ape shit if they saw Harris in the huddle when LSU takes the field on offense for the first time.

    nonsense. Harris should roll to his weak side every time. Basically as far as I can tell, Miles runs it the way he wants, not as the game dictates.

    Why do I feel like miles would let Etling start, handcuff him, and then be like "see? See?? I told you" at the end of the game.

    It looks like all signs point to Etling. I don't disagree with Les as far as tempering expectations, but I'm not real confident he'll play this right. Maybe he'll prove me wrong, which would be fantastic.

    And you think Harris has shown in the two games of 2016 that he will play right?
