Love hearing Gordy break down the film

Last night, Gordy did a great job of recapping the Wisconsin game. Pretty much confirmed what everyone felt in that the offensive game plan could not have been worse. LSU has played a Wilcox coached defense several times in the past and the Wisconsin game plan followed every previous Wilcox coached game plan. No surprises or schematic changes. LSU had advantages all over the field in personnel and alignment and still chose to run into the teeth of the Wisconsin defense and "play the game in a phone booth".
At the start of the third quarter, LSU finally saw the light and went spread. It drew the safeties out of the box and unclogged things in alignment for the offense. Unfortunately, LSU still ran to the disadvantages in the alignment. First play was read option but it's really no option at all. It's a design give to # 7 and again he ran into the one area of the field where Wisky had alignment advantages. Had Harris kept it, he had one man to beat for a TD. Second play, LSU spread again and the advantage is to the wideouts for a quick flare pass which would have gone for a huge gain. Harris doesn't check out of the run and again runs into teeth of defense. Third play, spread but TE slips getting into his route.
They never really ran the spread again after that.
Meanwhile, our coach to be (Jimbo Fisher) adjusts at halftime and absolutely obliterates a pretty decent Ole Miss defense with a freshman QB. So depressing!

Les is the worst offensive coach in the country. What else do you expect at this point? He's proven time and time again that he doesn't know what the frick is going on so, there's that.

There are many high school coaches around the country who could run our offense immensely better than Les has. They'd do it for a lot less than 4.3 million or 1.5 million too.

Most of the fan base believe Miles DESERVED another shot to redeem himself and they bashed us "negitigers". Now they don't want to be called out for their stupidity and want to jump on the bandwagon. I know those fans are tired of hearing it from those of us who have been wanting Miles gone for years but it's aggravating as hell that it took them so long to see it and a waste another season.
He embarrassed LSU in 2011, countless time mgt debacles and taking the heisman from Fournette last year.

same shite against bama last year instead of spreading out backers in box with horizontal stretches. or attacking backers in space. or attacking in between backers and the safties in cover 2, making them finally either come up closer so we can go over the top or fan out to help outside then counter attacking intermediate/deep middle. I do not think miles knows what counter attack means or adjust. it is trench warfare for him. just CHARGE!!!!!! whatever happens, happens!

fact of the matter is this offense will run what it runs no matter what the defense is dictating.
it will try to run into brick walls repeatedly and then when it picks up a first down, it will repeat the same patterns.
Miles will not break tendencies. it's not in his blood to do so, to the detriment of his team.
thing is, the players will always feel responsible for letting the coaches down. however, these coaches almost never feel responsible for letting the players down. you hear it in press conferences where execution is to blame.
but they dont realize that the conditions before the play is even run already doom it.

It was hard enough on Monday listening to the college football shows on XM talk about the failings of the LSU offense Saturday; then, on Tuesday, listening to them talk about Fisher's brilliance making halftime adjustments left me despondent thinking about what might have been.

News flash. Jimbo made adjustments before halftime. Even the commentators were remarking that fact. Result was he closed the half with a TD and came back out in the 3rd qtr to receive the KO and scored again... and again and again.
