    The Cholly Mac days were legendary. Back then his postgame meeting with media was on the radio . You would hear the entire session. Some nights he was hilarious.
    One game against Kentucky Art Still - a huge All American defensive tackle for Ky blocked a field goal picked up the ball and ran about 70 yards for a score.
    After the game Mac tells the press ‘Fellas my kicker - all 5’8 170 pounds of him tells me ‘Coach I almost caught up to him’
    I told the boy ‘Son, what the hell would you have done if you did?’
    The reporters roared with laughter.
    Mac was priceless.
    We were no where near a national title back then but I still miss those days .

    There were a couple of plays where they rushed two. TWO! Unforgiveable.

    True story or at least that’s what Rusty said after.

    LSU ran the ball once over its last 19 plays I read somewhere….

    you have to think that a back in space can make the 1st guy miss…

    Yes, I saw this as well. The 4th quarter playcalling while we had the lead:
    • Pass Pass Pass Punt
    • Pass Pass Pass Pass Pass Pass Punt
    • Pass Pass Pass Punt
    We finally attempted running after we lost the lead.
    Pathetic.

    If Peetz isn’t relieved of playcalling duties, it has to be because it’s Ed O meddling.

    Do we have anymore fullbacks on scholarship? I ask b/c maybe that extra push up front from our weak oline might spring the RB if we only tried.

    Just like Miles Cholly Mac was stubbon and refused to adapt. I did like Cholly he was a good man and never embarrassed the school.

    I think it's maybe the opposite maybe Ed needs to step in more. Bring Ensminger back for the rest of the season to bring some experience and stability to the offense. I could be wrong about this. One thing I do know is we have to think outside the box to make this offense more productive.

    Too much out of box thinking, need a little more in the box thinking.
