Chris Low on LSU bowl loss and offensive woes

Sorry if Germans. Many will say ESPN hates LSU but it's hard to argue with this.
"But as impressive as this run has been -- and the Tigers have established themselves as a top 10 program nationally -- they’re going to hit a ceiling unless they can get it fixed on offense.
Miles hinted that some changes could be coming with his “adjustment has to be made” declaration following the loss to Clemson, which was LSU’s third postseason setback in the past four years.
With as many as six underclassmen on defense considering a jump to the NFL, the Tigers might face a bit of a rebuilding project on that side of the ball next season.
So more than ever, they need to find some consistency on offense, and probably more importantly, find a way to deliver on offense when it counts.
Otherwise, the Tigers’ best football under Miles might be behind them."

1-3 in the last 4 bowl games makes me wonder if this statement is true.
Hard to argue with results and Les just isn't getting it done nowadays considering teams like Vandy are pulling off 9 win seasons.

Not a Low fan, but he is spot on. The offense is losing the big games.

Lost all three this year. Cause the o couldn't sustain drives we lost to UF and Clemson. Not as big of an issue in the Bama game but we couldn't convert and had to settle for fg's against them.

We should be impressed that it took ESPN about 4 years to figure out the obvious?

It was the issue in the Bama game. we gave them the ball back, much the same as against Clemson, they drove down the field and scored to win...

Agreed but the trick plays did us in more than anything. Fake fg. Going for a long fg to give Bama the ball back right before the half. Warecat play that didn't work.

Hard ro argue the facts of our offense

Miles has come to a crossroads with this program....what he decides to do with the O from this point forward will be very important for his future at LSU and the future of our program. I believe he will do what needs to be done....

Miles is what 60 years old? He has a contract for 7 more years at $4 mill/per after leveraging the raise/extension in December. He knows he's now fighting an uphill battle against Bama, Ga, Fla., and now TAMU, so he secured his future. What him worry?

Nothing we dont all know already, we've been seeing this ground hog day movie for the last 5 years straight.

He secured his retirement by acting like he was interested in Arky. He will be happy w/9-10 win seasons from here on....the 11 win or more seasons are gone imo.
That's like 8 win seasons under the old 11-game schedule....bring back Charlie Mac.

I can't believe all of the back-stabbing, disloyal, ungrateful and despicable NegaTiger negativity around here.
LSU lost by one lousy point, and now we have a new TV show "Everybody Hates Miles."
Well, Coach isn't going anywhere. He just got a raise and a very long contract extension.
We believe in Mano a Mano Power football -- between the tackles. And we win over 80 percent of our games doing so.
Coach Miles will fix it has he has always promptly fixed issues in the past. He is a very pro-active coach in that he sees and fixes problems before they BECOME problems.

I've been saying this shite all year. Others teams just lose because they get outplayed. We freaking lose because of a jackass running a pathetic offense and sitting on a lead. We lost 2 games for sure like that. Unbelievable.

You can't be this stupid. You are reaching so bad that you are passed the point of being helped. Way to accept failure right in front of your face.

The LSU offense has been well below average for 5 seasons.
It's a Les Miles issue, he make 4 Million a year, he needs to fix it.
I don't have a problem with his strategy of shortening the game, but he must find balance...because LSU can not win on talent alone, they must have a better scheme, more aggressive and less predictable.

Coach Miles has won over 80 percent of his games, NegaTiger. He won the SEC Championship last game and brought us to the NC game.
NegaTigers make me sick. I hate our fans sometimes.
You'll all be back on the bandwagon soon enough.

You are drinking way too much Champagne (or some other kool aid). Miles is bringing this program down. Arrogant, incompetent deer in the lights...
