Why is everyone still harping on this fact? The game should have been decided well before the final 29seconds.

Chavis cost us this game plain and simple.

Either our coach was giving up or he was clueless to how much time was left/how many timeouts he had. Both disturb me.

Because it is a sign of sheer stupidity and obliviousness. Logically, there is not a single justification for failing to call the timeout. Not one. Whether or not it would have changed the outcome, the timeout should have been called. The failure to do so just demonstrates how dumb Miles can be. It's just dumb. No other word for it.

EXACTLY. 4 straight losses where the D couldn't get off the field.
Which gives LSU a higher probability of winning?

1. getting the ball back down 3 with no timeouts and 25 seconds left or
2. holding OM to a 3 and out and getting it back tied with 2 minutes left?

As a head coach, you're supposed to give your team the best chance it has to win the game no matter how you've played. Miles failed to do so.

Our defense played like shite no doubt and should have stopped Ole Piss on that last drive but like you said that game should have been decided well before the 29sec and for that there is a lot of blame to go around not just Chavis or the defense. Case in point Mett's 3 ints, Chavis and the defense had nothing to do with that obviously. So if Mett doesn't throw those int's do you think the outcome is different?

Plenty of blame to go around, Chavis and his defense are part of the equation for defeat last night not the entire equation.

You know I might not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but that wasn't Chavis throwing 3 picks 2 of which should have been TD's. I am willing to bet he hasn't missed a tackle since he was playing in college at Tennessee. Ya'll can throw Chief and Les under the bus if you want. Yes coaching mistakes were made, but none that cost LSU the win. This game wasn't coached any differently. The reason LSU lost is that the players were flat and overlooked Ole Miss. Now that is plan and simple you could see it in their body language early on in the game.
