re: Fallacy: Miles philosophy of keeping games close

I don't think its Miles philosophy to keep games close.

Its just that LSU doesn't have a coach on staff that can prepare an offense to perform at a level that creates seperation (point wise and field position wise).

LSU has had the benefit of great defenses with a good head coach resulting in great defensive recruits. That has not happened on the offensive side. Point out the last out of state Offensive player that was a difference maker---ware is the only one that i can think of. And while Ware was good he was not spectacular.
