same offensive crap, different year. the coaching staff can't be left out on this fact, can they? and if they do realize it's a major problem and very possibly keeping us from a national championship game each year why hasn't a damn thing been done to correct for the last 5 years?
how about a top 10 defense is points scored against (this year we are 12th) and a top 50 offense in points scored (this year we are 60th). Gradual improvements that should please everyone .
What is difficult to achieve is balance. For the most part, if the pace of the game is to establish the run and use the run to set up the pass, it shouldn't be impossible. When the Hill kid started the third with the big TD run, the Clemson D was officially on their heels. Now lean on them. Make them stop it. In essence make their butt quit, if they can't. That's what power football teams do. For Hill to not touch the ball in the 4th quarter after averaging 10 yards a pop, clearly indicated LSU got away from the run first balance they needed. Run blocking is so much easier for the O-line and with all those freshmen that have only recently been integrated into the mix, it was foolish to abandon the tried and tested run first. Not when the freshmen road-craters had started to dominate their opponent. What's most ironic about all this is that Miles DNA is to run, run, run. It was another gameplan where LSU was trying to reinvent the wheel, after the wheel had proven it could pretty much run over anything in it's path.
I think it's crazy to be discussing whether Les Miles should be fired, particularly since you just gave him a hefty raise and extension. I would take Les Miles as my Coach in a heartbeat .... and I wouldn't lose any sleep over my decision.
you cant be serious, how about throwing the ball with 2 minutes left, instead of running it and making Clemson use timeouts. How about Mett, rolling out and missing a wide open Landry by a quarter mile. 100 plays for the defense, no defense is in that good of shape physically, not one on earth
