Miles: "We're going to throw passes to (Fournette)." #LSU

Two-headed monster: Miles was asked about the Tigers’ running back rotation and if Fournette and Guice could be in the game at the same time. “You can see Guice and Fournette in pretty regular doses. I think Darrell Williams will also get an opportunity to play a lot at running back. And, yes, I think you can see both Guice and Fournette in the game at the same time

I didn't think much of that. They've thrown to Fournette before. However, I like the idea of Fournette and Guice in the backfield to use one as a decoy.

I was thinking of in it a different way. Possibly get Fournette to split wide or something, who knows.

This !! Please God !! But Guice will prolly be one in slot. I'm good with that. But if LF does split out I can see defenses confused looking around not knowin what to think

Put Guice at quarterback and run the read option all day with him and Fournette.

cool your jets. no matter what question is asked about players MIles always says yes, he'll be playing; yes, you'll see that play; yes, we're going to do that, etc, etc, etc

he's done this for 11 years now and some fans still take him for his word on that type of questioning. les miles is not going to tell the public shite. the only time I would believe him is if he says "no, we're not going to do that".

Navy style triple-option attack with Harris/Guice/Fournette.

Unstoppable.

I hope Les understands there's a great want for the tight end to receive the football in position down feild.

Miles will do this in the first half and then we'll never see it until very late in season..

Then you would lose your passing threat so no I might use this as a wrinkle but I would have Harris with LF and Guice on each side, send one in motion out to the flats or anywhere on the field and then do some read option with it all day long until they stopped me. Then change it up with LF going in motion. You could score 30 points bf the defense knew what was going on. With our WR and how Harris can use his legs this would put all our weaponry on the field at once and so many things you can do with this. You can send TEs in motion, WRs, even send lineman to one side or another just to confuse the defense and then run weak side or go ahead and run strong side but no way they could just stack the middle up against this or you would have wide open WRs and backs out there. This offense could really be dynamic!!

we passed to LF& way more post bama last year he has 3-4 receptions in the last three SEC games and only 1 against Tech but it was a 44 yarder to the house.

Some by design, and hopefully Harris gets more comfortable checking down tot he RBs.

You could also send Chark or Dural in motion and fake the hand off then toss it to LF or Guice on the otherside of the field with lineman pulling and WRs blocking. So many things you could do that we just don't and I'm not sure why? Never did get this and if we don't see some type of imagination with the playcalling then we need to go get a young gunner type OC that can come in and add this stuff to our offense. You can still have the ground and pound also. At least mix things up and have half of your play selection from these formations and half from your old formations to see what works best. Idk I just know we need some balance and get these defenses guessing. This 8 and 9 in the box needs to be taken advantage of effe the dumb chit.

Getting the ball to Fournette or Guice in open space would be a big advantage against anybody.
