There was another article by CFN I believe that basically said the same thing.

This is redux, same old story, same old Les...LSU/Bama will be a repeat of the National Title Game and not the earlier regular season matchup. Stubborn stays as stubborn does. Defense is great, offense - no growth, no change, no creativity...high schoolish and easy to defend as usual with a great D-line. Les has not matured past just out-muscling people at the line. Works great when you are playing U-dub, not so great when you are playing Bama.

Not that I am a fan of what happened on 1/9 but are folks forgetting that LSU won the first time!

It is not as though Miles doesn't know how to win against Saban and Bama. He has done it multiple times.

The most recent loss is always on one's mind and unfortunately it was the title game. It was made worse in that it was against Bama (division) and Saban. There were already splits with JJ and JL and all of these factors makes it seem even worse emotionally.

Regardless of whether you have smart alec comments about Les' coaching/ buddy coaches/game plan/time management -


THE MAN HAS WON BEFORE AND WILL WIN AGAIN!!!!

UGA might crash the party. Greatly improved offensively, now have two freshman RBs who can pound the rock, have played well the last three games, will have full complement of defensive starters for the first time this season vs UT, and have the most favorable schedule.

I'm still confused how people can think the LSU OL can flip a switch and develop into a great pass blocking unit. If they were good at it some evidence of such would have been displayed on the field by now.

Spot on assessment of our offense. Mett is an improvement at the QB position, but overall the offense is no better than last year. Play calling is pedestrian and shows no imagination. It works against lesser opponents, but as soon we we come up against a team with equal or better talent, we struggle to move the ball.
