re: Doing LES with more.....

Ok, a few things, because I love shite like this.

First off, this is just OFFENSIVE ranks, correct? This doesn't take into account how great our defense and ST have done as well, right? For example, on defense, you have several outliers. One, right off hand, would be Mo Claiborne, a 2 star recruit who ended up being a first round pick in the NFL. There are several others as well. That is clearly doing more...

Next, does this take into account what types of schedules LSU has been playing? For example, everyone here loves to suck Saban's cock, but damn it has to be easy on you when your toughest division rivals have to go through a gauntlet that, by design of Bama alumni running the SEC, are two to three times harder than yours annually. Isn't it easier to do more when you only have to play maybe two ranked teams all year, and have the luxury of knowing you can lose one of them? That has to factor in this as well...

What about games where LSU was blowing people out? While people love to bash on Miles, he has won a LOT of games (and many against top programs) where the LSU offense literally needed to sit on the ball the majority of the second half in order to finish the game. Some notables: The ENTIRE frickING 2011 Season (minus the Game of the Century that didn't count), several big games in 2005, 2006 (AZ comes to mind right away), 2007 (Va Tech), 2008 (Bowl), etc.

Don't get me wrong, I KNOW LSU's offense is average/below average. It has been since our "resurection", but it was this way under Saban too. Our best offensive years this decade were 2003, 2006 and 2007. That's it.

I have more questions once these are addressed. Either way, this is cool.
