No minor adjustment wouldve worked in that game. You are what you are and Miles kept it close.
Giving his team a chance to get back in it, just no one made a play the entire game.

Did anyone notice that Urban Meyer didnt make any adjustments against Mich St last yr? With an all time stacked team. Only cost them the Big 10 championship and an undefeated season.

That's the first I've heard anyone praise Miles for "keeping it close" and "giving his team a chance to get back in it" on 1/9/12. We must have been watching different games.

And I don't specifically recall what Urban Meyer did or didn't do in the OSU-Mich State game, but I don't think this type of criticism of Meyer is going to stick. The guy won the freaking NC a couple years ago with his 3rd string QB. Talk about having to adjust (massively adjust) on the fly against elite teams!! By the way, I think Meyer's a douche, but I can give credit where it's due.

I wasnt trying to get anything to stick against Meyer. Let me refresh your memory. Ohio st was almost a preseason unanimous pick to repeat with almost everyone back from the team that had ddstroyed the field and the aranda defense the previous yr.
A team full of nfl 2016 draft picks, 1st string QB and at home.
Mich st completely shut them down on the road with far lesder talent. Alabama beat that team 38-0 with a month to prepare.
The point wasnt to be critical of Meyer, it was in defense of Miles.
It was just an example of a great program with a top coach,and with a super talented team not winning the Big 3.
Its time to move on from the time mgt issues, lack of game planning and being able to make ingame adjustments.
If people would watch other good programs play and compare LSU fairly they would see this and realize they are well coached.
But its cool to say Miles is an idiot and heis the problem.
They believe there are a dozen coaches that LSU can get that would win more than Miles at LSU. But never name them.
Heres one for u. Miles loses starting QB for 1st half of season and right before #2 Oregon. He adjusts on the fly and goes 12-0 with a SEC title.
