Fuck I didn't even think of that, Eric Reid needs to immediately send an apology email like 44 from Bama did when he belly to back suplexed that Missouri rb on the back of his head. Now there is precedent.
LSU's offense is comically inept, but, I don't know whom to blame. The Offensive Line has drastically improved, in my humble opinion. Who gets the credit? I don't know. Mett must not be as good a QB as we thought. I thought that he was a good QB. I may have been wrong about that. I thought that we had awesome players to catch the ball. I may have been wrong about that, too. I'm not going to comment on CLM, other than to say that he's not a perfect football coach, especially when it comes to actually coaching football . . . but I could be wrong about that, too. My gut feeling right now is that CLM needs to embrace his role as CEO Coach/Program Manager and hire some more coaching talent for the offensive side of the line of scrimmage.
I would add lack of turnovers to the "good" category. Without that, we likely don't overcome the multitude of self-inflicted problems.
The play calling is baffling to say the least. Is it possible the plays are being sent down directly from the mother ship?
The play calling has gotten into a predictable pattern and it's carried over from last year. Like the sideline slant that A&M had double and triple covered. Did they ..uh, know it was coming and what happens when Ford comes in? It's an end around. Etc., Etc., Etc!!! I don't think they even realize it.
Totally agree with these points, isn't our offensive coordinator also the offensive line coach? With the wealth behind this program we should be able to afford a top offensive coordinator and let the offensive line coach the offensive line, clearly he's doing a great job at it.....we can't all be offensive coordinators! This isn't Holloween....yet
No, I wasn't talking about you. I'm talking about "fans" in general. Don't get so defensive. Besides, I don't give a shit how old you are or how long you've been sitting in the stands.
LSU got the win, so thats the most imporatant thing. There was a lot left to be desired though. The first half was one of the worst Ive ever seen a team play yet still be ahead going into the half. LSU lacks any discipline or focus. The penalties killed us. Mingo offsides and all the false starts. Something has to change here, its not acceptable. The play calling was horrendous yet again. When LSU finally starts to establish a run, they try to pass. When we cant run because the line is stacked and we should pass. They keep calling runs. It ridiculous. Im tired of seeing everyone defending Miles here. Whether or not its Stud or Miles calling the plays, its Miles team. LSU has called the same game for 4 straight years. Last year we could be predictable and it was ok. The OL was special. When they do call a pass more times than not the routes are all within 10 yards. Thats not going to stretch the field. There is not a single coach on O thats earning their pay right now. Although the OL has shown some improvement. Mett is seriously regressing. He looked much better early on in the year. He missed far too many passes yesterday. My other issue is no one sitts when they F up. Mett should sit a series or two. Give Rivers a shot. It may spark one of them. Our O cant get much worse. A really good thing is Hill. He has a great combo of size, speed, power, and quick feet. He also shows excellent hands.
