It's amazing people really believe that when the fact is the offense stats got better after the Auburn game: After the 8th game, LSU was ranked #78 in total offense and #15 in scoring offense. After the Ga. game, LSU was ranked #75 in total offense and #12 in scoring offense.
im sure there is some annomoly to this information, albeit i dont believe it to be true, and 2, everyone's offense went to shite causing us to move up by default....
JJ led offense was beyond vomit...more like exploding diarhea...

This will be, like the '62 Ole Miss game for McClendon, the game for which fans will never forgive Coach Miles--ever. He may coach for another 15 years, but he will never be forgiven.
There comes a moment in every game when the coach must pull the goalee, leave the goal undefended and counterattack for the win. Coach didn't do this. That's not LSU's way; we fight back--always. If Coach had put in Lee or Mettenberger the game might not have been different, but it was apparent at halftime we had nothing to lose by that act. Lee was pulled from games for acts trivial compared to what Jefferson did. We won in Tuscaloosa by doing the unexpected--putting in Jefferson and running option plays. We could have done that here--think about putting in Mettenberger or Lee and the danger Alabama faced against the 20 yard strike. It might have loosened them. At minimum it would have galvanized the team, stirred the pot, and prevented all the cocktail party talk later about "why didn't we?" No one would have blamed Miles for pulling the goalee--they would have been proud of him. That's LSU's way.

Yeah, it's called closing your eyes to the facts in order to find a way to validate your opinion.

But yet from Bama to Ga it gained more yards a game and scored as many points a game as we did in our 1st 8 games.
Wake up and smell the coffee.
