Quotes from Miles' radio show:
" Miles said that unless you’re moving the ball both on the ground and in the air, you’ll have a difficult time, and that once you become one-dimensional you cannot survive. He concluded with something like, “We are gonna continue to be balanced.”

“We want to get to 50/50 football. When you can’t run the football you must pass, and when you have to pass that becomes an issue."

"Miles responded by saying they threw the ball just under 50% of the time but that they have to execute better."

Is this guy delusional or just a damned liar?!

What he said isn't wrong. I agree with him fwiw. And we did run pass plays on almost 50 percent. So...... Yeah.

19 passing

26 rushing

42% passing is just under 50%...

Depends on how you define the word "just".

LSU ran 45 plays. They threw 19 passes and were sacked twice. That's 47% pass plays called, not including instances when BH took off running on a called pass play.

Who's the damned liar again?

And if we take into account QB scrambles and sacks on called pass plays the line moves even closer to 50:50.

Yet another case of facts getting in the way of tRant's narrative.

You can say whatever you want as long as you are the most winningest coach in LSU's history.

Chunking up 3 hail mary's on 3rd and 10 isn't exactly "keeping the offense balanced". Although we did catch one of the prayers.

He is right. We did run pass plays and did not execute them. The ludicrous part is that we choose not to work more on the pass offense early in the season knowing we will need it dearly in the latter part of the season...

What failed against Bama was simply poor execution of basic short pass game... what most people call easy possession passes. LOL

This is how out of touch with reality he is... We continued to run the ball while averaging something like 1 yard per carry. WTF why would you continue to run the ball????

Because Harris would have had 4 guys in his face about a second after the snap anytime we tried to pass during that game.

When the offensive line is as ineffective as it was this past Saturday, the game plan is irrelevant. There was no time to execute anything most of the night. I'm not sure what game some of yall watched.
