If Miles doesn't allow the pass...

to a reasonable degree this game, one that shows he truly, to use his own words, "has a want" for success, I just might boo and boo loudly.
Five years without a respectable offense, the 3-inches-and-a-puff-of-dust as his core offensive philosophy, around which is built an overall scheme that is predictable and does not allow (the reasons for which the entire LSU nation is still waiting for the answer) for game-time adjustments, is too much for me to continue to take as an LSU alum.
And yes, I'm still wondering what happened in the Superdome back in January.
As I see it, the basic problem Miles has it this:
he is afraid to take the default risks that all Div. I football teams must take every Saturday. To play the game of football, unless you have some new scheme that is superior to that called offense and defense, you must, when running an offense, make a reasonable number of forward passes. Miles deludes himself into thinking his running game is a superior scheme. And he just doesn't want to win the conventional way (balanced attack), and the irony is, he ends up taking a bigger risk of losing the games by forsaking the forward pass.
How hard-headed is this guy? We'll see later today.

I agree with you. It's time for Miles to at least try to have a balance attack.

frick the haters,you're right.
Enough lip service to a balanced offense by Miles.
Take risks and maybe lose big,or play ultra conservative and lose close.
I think Miles coaches this way on purpose,if we're competitive in every game a certain section of the fanbase is content.

to the original poster-
Pretty sure we're all frustrated with our offensive problems. We don't look like the team we thought we'd see.
Miles "stubborn":
well, Mett has shown the tendency to throw picks in the redzone, trying to force things. Mett has shown a lack of awareness re the blitz, and has fumbled a few times because he isn't securing the ball while scrambling. He's got a decent completion percentage, but still has missed badly on some wide-open guys.
Our receivers have not been able to get open a bunch. When they do and the ball is on target, they've dropped quite a few. Beckham, our best receiver, has also fumbled a couple times in trying to make the big play.
Our offensive line is injury-depleted, and not very impressive currently, at all.
Miles knows this as well as we do. He also knows he has a defense that is stout. He knows he has plenty of talented running backs. He knows if we can limit the mistakes, and not fall way behind, we might be able to wear the other team down late and win.
And yet, you want him to unleash that passing attack, or you'll boo? Run-heavy game plan and we're in a low scoring game most likely. Lots of passing, based on what we've seen, and somebody might have 30 points at the half. And it probably won't be us.

We had 25 pass plays and 25 run plays last week. Hard to get more balanced than that. We have actually passed the ball quite a bit this year, but your Miles hatred is distorting your perception of reality. Our offense suck, but it's not due to a lack of passing. I challenge you to provide some stats to back up your assertion that he forsakes the forward pass.

It'll be O-tay widdle fellow.
And if that' doesnt' work threaten to tie some snacks in a hankercheif, attach it to the end of a stick and run away from home. Works every time.

Stopped here. Our offense was respectable last year. Stupid.

OK please stop with the bullshite. LSU is a power run team, and we all know it. Had things gone differently in the beginning of the season ie: injuries, no one would be having this conversation. The O-line is decimated and about as effective as a screen door on a submarine. The coaches have to play who is available. Do you honestly think that Miles is going to call pass plays when the WR are dropping balls thrown right at the numbers, and Mett doesn't have the time to get rid of the ball? Please stop wishing for LSU to have Madden type QB's. Geno, Barkely, Klien, AJ all would be running for their life behind the LSU O-line right now.

I'm just wondering if this LSU Nation would recognize game time adjustments. Would you notice blocking changes? What about minor alignment changes? Route adjustments? Split adjustments? Do you understand a word of what I just typed?
I'm thinking that you and the rest of this LSU Nation have at best a very shallow understanding of football and have no clue as to the adjustments that happen every game. The fact that you declare that there have been none proves my point.
So please boo if you feel like it. Your post has already told me all I need to know about you.
