Did Les choke down the offense in second half??

Jimbo Fisher made statements when he left that when the game got tight Les took over or over ruled play calling. Yep someone heard this or someone heard that doesn't mean anyone knows what goes on inside LSU football. but for the naked eye the offense got very conservative after the 17-17 point. Run, Run, pass...Defense pinning them back and coming after Met on 3rd. Everyone knows our defense is going to give up the points, shouldn't we try to keep up with our offense?

No --- Alabama's D-Line began dominating our O-Line -- giving our QB no time and thus our receivers MAY have been open, but we could not effectively get the ball to them consistently.
If anything, we became one dementional --- all pass and Bama just teed off on our O-line.
So, man we got beat by one of the best teams in the country --- it ain't the end of the world.

By the third quarter, it was obvious that our defense was not able to stop Bama's run game, and Bama had started to squash the running out of the I formation. Yet for some reason, LSU kept running the ball on first and second down out of the I formation, leading to many 3rd and 7 or more situations. After LSU got the ball trailing 24-17, it should have been obvious that LSU's best chance to win was to outscore Bama, but Les countinued to try and once again win a 9-6 game. Les' inability to adjust to the flow of the game is frustrating.

Nope, Either Cam or Bama dictated what LSU did on offense

The Les haters are so set in their ways that they won't be bothered with actual facts.

Actually it used to be Bad defense = Miles, Good defense = Chavis too.
But I do think Miles takes the air out of the offense.

So where were the screen passes?
The quick slants?
ANYTHING to neutralize an aggressive defense.

We will never know, because nobody in authority cares enough to pose the question and demand an answer.
Don't you get it? LSU is happy with Coach Miles as coach. Things are fine.
You care a lot more about that game than do the folks who run the University, I assure you.

No. They adjusted to what we were doing, which had been working. The inability of our D to stop them did not help our cause for trying to play catch-up from farther and farther from behind. Les IS the Head coach and accepts the blame for the loss. So do you think on 3rd down Les called the play where the OL doesn't block? UA's front 7 kept our OLine confused much of the night. The UA DL did their job of occupying our OL so the LBs could rush through. Mett just didn't get the best check downs. I'll confess, it's a lot easier to see it and call it from the couch.

1st down plays in 2nd half
Z. Mettenberger crossing pass complete to Jarvis Landry for 10 yards to the LS35, 1ST DOWN LS (Denzel Devall).
Jeremy Hill rush over left tackle for 5 yards to the LS40 (Trey DePriest;C.J. Mosley).
Z. Mettenberger LF pass complete to Terrence Magee for 2 yards to the 50 yardline (Deion Belue).
Jeremy Hill rush over right end for loss of 3 yards to the UA21 (Landon Collins;C.J. Mosley).
Z. Mettenberger RF pass complete to Jeremy Hill for 20 yards to the 50 yardline, 1ST DOWN LS (J. Williams).
was a called pass Z. Mettenberger rush up middle for no gain to the 50 yardline (Denzel Devall;C.J. Mosley).
LSU had only four 2nd downs in the 2nd half and two were rushes and two were passes.
but perpetuating the same old bullshite and selective memory is fun isn't it??

After we tied it at 17 we had 3 more possesions.
On first down we called passing plays 4 times, running plays twice.
On second down we called 2 passing plays and 2 running plays.
The offense had to score every possesion of the second half for us to have a chance. Alabama controlled the ball about 20 of the remaining 26 minutes after the score was tied at 17. Offensive playcalling wasn't the problem. The defense unable to get off the field was. The game was over after Alabama converted the fake punt.

exactly.
like i posted above yours.
4 passes vs 2 rushes on 1st and people are still ignorant
2nd downs were 2 rushes vs 2 passes.
balance.
not even fair to compare 3rd down bc they're passing down but they would further the point
