frick that. I'll takes watching Les rub their nose in a 24-0 shutout in Tiger Stadium. Takes knee three times from inside the 5 to run the clock out.

we went through periods of not even being able to get the snap off, even after a time out, w/o getting penalized. that would wreck anyone's confidence. if this offense begins to gel I think the Mad Hatter will return indeed!

If you can't execute it in practice you sure as hell don't try running it in a game.

Yes, his offensive philosophy is absolutely maddening. Thus, the Mad Hatter...

His "ballsy" calls were running it straight up the middle Jacob Hester on 4th down.

The only thing truly risky he ever did was run fake field goals.

4th downs vs UF, Byrd TD vs AU, etc.


I've always felt like he gets undue credit for this. Those weren't risky, take a chance plays. They were the only options at the time. The Byrd pass, there was plenty of time to take a shot and kick the FG, they just took forever to execute that snap.

The real Miles game plan is to try to keep the game close and win with the ball at the end. He's found that ain't gonna work against Bama. Let's see if he can figure out how to make an adjustment.

All I want him to do is UTLILIZE the NFL talent on offense and stop being so damn predictable.

Les Miles owns his job ,I don't care how much power the negatigers think they have ,the only thing they can really do is send a player or two from lsu to bama !

BTW, did you see the fake field goal vs Florida last year? The Mad Hatter hasn't gone anywhere.


He does trick plays vs Florida a lot. There was also the flea flicker last year, the jump pass in 2011, and the fake FG in 2012.
