It's a fact that you're an idiot for believing this nonsense The only thing that's a fact is that defenses get tired as the game goes on

Well it looks like he is sticking around for the 2013 season so you could either mope around for another season or you could find some sort of silver lining and get behind the team. I find much more satisfaction doing the latter.

pretty sure the answer is 0 57 yard run for a td and we dont hear from him again. brilliant coaching
You guys are soooo stupid! Several reasons why Zhill got no touches. 1) Clemson made adjustments on defense that shut down the running game. Our coaches wisely decided to throw the ball. 2) Normal rotation to keep fresh legs in the game. Hill is definitely our best back, but the difference between Hill and Hilliard/Ware is very little, and is unlikely to materially affect the game. 3) The defense (worn out) allowed Clemson to keep the ball and eat up the clock. Our entire offense had limited plays. Idiot fans don't want to admit this because they'd rather blame a coach and keep their vicarious dreams largely intact, but we lost to Clemson because our team was highly unmotivated and played with very sporadic effort.

How fricking sad that we all know this? If Less let Hill run 20 times a game, the kid could be a Heisman contender. Not that I give a shite about that award, but Hill is a stud and could be unreal if unleashed. How many carries did Hill have in the 4th quarter against Clemson
it is coaching decisions exactly like the brilliant "running back by committee", and benching your best back for practically an entire half that will be the reason fournette will NOT come to lsu. he will be at hated fricking alabama getting 30 touches a game,and winning the heisman trophy.

Pen rod we had we had 1 yard of O in the 4th quarter! Tulane would have done better! We need to fire Miles and hire an offensive type coach who will keep Chavis. The winning has been strictly because of Chavis. Miles runs the O and it has been very bad for years!

If we can't pass the ball, the running game will be irrelavent.

No. If you watched closely, you can see Hill was getting worn out late in the season. That tends to happen when teams constantly stack the box against our run game. Last season, Ware was effective for maybe the first 4 or 5 games before he got a flat tire. Then came Hilliard. Hilliard became the man this past season after Blue went down and then he became ineffective because of wear and tear. Until our passing game gets more respect, it is best to rotate the RB's to keep the starter near full strength for the entire season.
Sorry coldwings, that just isn't completely accurate. You make it sound like there are no RB's out there who can handle getting carries throughout a game when the D focuses in on them. That is conditioning if you're saying 3 of the LSU RB's can't handle the box being stacked. I mean seriously dude, you're making excuses. I am ALL about mixing in great RB's like Blue and Hilliard, but Miles needs to let 1 guy be the man for multiple games in a row. If he gets too "tired" as you say, then he needs to work harder. And Hill could be a superstar.

And you call others stupid? The coach, not plural, decided to throw the ball and LSU lost because of it. Instead of burning the Clemsonquote:
2) Normal rotation to keep fresh legs in the game.
TO's, they laughed at the stupidity and drove the ball right down the tired D's throats. Hill had 0, as in ZERO carries in the 4th quarter. His legs were as fresh as if they just started the game! Do you guys ever get tired of making excuses for the buffoon on the sidelines?

Now we're getting somewhere. WHY did/does the offense have limited plays? I do not blame the D. They were there for 100 plays. They finally broke. The pathetic offense which is determined by pathetic coaching let the Tigers down.

Please stop, we aren't firing miles anytime soon. Might as well accept that fact.

That's fine, but the burning question remains: was the 2012 backfield the BEST OF ALL TIME???

And you wouldn't hold a coach or coaching staff accountable for any of your own assessment ?
