Just curious and not get an answer how many of these folks (CLM lovers) put up their hard earned $ toward season tickets, attending games, tailgating and such?


Why should we support the most successful coach lsu has ever had. Lsu finishing 14th in entire country last year is an embarrassment.posters on here act like lsu is the only program with down years. Our down years are 9 win seasons in the hardest division in cfb history. Only 4 programs have won at least 9 games each of the last 5 years and lsu is one of them. Thats should let you know how good of a program Miles has built/maintained at lsu.

No cfb program runs some wild and imaginative offense. The coaches have 20 hours a week to practice. Cfb offenses are about execution not about some innovative offense or wide variety of play calling. Hell Auburn runs the same play 75% of the time.

The defensive talent is unreal, especially getting valentine.. Plus they all coming back with experience on top of top shelf talent. There is tremendous offensive skill talent returning as well

Who will play QB?

Glad you feel this way, however, didn't answer my ?; are you a season ticket buyer?
Ok, not matter, but those of us that put up our hard cash to support the sports infrastructure are entitled to offer criticism of what we and the national perspective see that there is a definite underachievement on the O and QB development that should be unacceptable to fan base especially the price being paid to this staff.
To call this shitting on the team is simply idiotic and those of us that foot the bill for it resent being called as such.
I think we will beat agnesses tonight and look forward to a decent bowl!

jhhingle-I am one of the biggest supporters of CLM, and I agree he is not beyond reproach. I agree there should be no excuse to be in the quandry we are in as far as QB development is concerned. I don't see that as a problem going forward because Cam has indentified QB prospects all the way thru 2018. MSU, Ole Miss caught the perfect storm this year and even that is not enough to get them in the playoffs as of yet.

So let's see how Harris develops and go from there. But I'm with you on the Offensive side of the ball, we need MAJOR development from the WR and QB positions.

We run a pro style offense. Have you not seen bama struggle on offense this year. Through 59 minutes of game play bama had 235 total yards of offense against lsu. bama has struggled on offense this year and they returned their best wr ( 3 of their top 4 wrs from last year), their entire rb corp, and they have a 5th year senior at qb. Compared that to lsu losing a senior qb that was replaced by a true soph, our 2 best wrs ( 3 of our top 4 from last year) and our best rb.bama and lsu run the same style of offense, bama just executes better.

If you haven't noticed A&M is 7-4 too, and their defense is ranked worse than our offense.


Which will make it even sadder if the offense cannot manage 21+ points.

THat offense last year should've lead the SEC with the talent we had on it. Yet we still had piss poor games like Arkansas, Bama, and Ole Miss with this offense.


OMG what an idiot. We don't run enough plays to lead the SEC in offense.

Yes because Mett had a bad day. Did Oregon not look like crap on offense against Arizona and Stanford last year? Against Arizona again this year? Does TAMU not shite the bed on offense against us yearly? Shut the frick up dumbass. Even the best offenses aren't going to be great every game.


Some statistics from those games you brought up.

Bama
Mett 16/23 (69.9%) 241 yards (10.5 ypa) 1 TD

Ole Miss
Mett 19/33 (57.6%) 274 yards (8.3 ypa) 1 TD 3 ints

I don't know why you listed Arky, but they did well on offense plus put up 31 points.

Arkansas
Mett/Jennings 18/29 (62.1%) 232 yards (8.3 ypa) 1 TD 1 int
Hill 20 car 145 yards (7.45 ypc) 1 TD
Magee 7 car 58 yards (8.29 ypc) 2 TDs

Offense was not the problem last year, defense was. Like the guy said, we were 5th in the country in efficiency, and we were also 7th in the country in yards per play. Clemson for example has a high powered open offense. At one point, they had Hopkins, Watkins, Ellington, and Boyd. How did they manage to lose 2 games that year in 2012? Offense isn't everything.

As fans we are so used to crappy offenses that when we had a good one in 2013 every one constantly talks about how awesome it was.

The biggest fallacy on the rant. Again for perhaps the 10th time personally and others have stated this as well many times. LSUs D in 2013 was ranked higher nationally and in the SEC than the O in 2013. Fact.

Sure I wish the 14 O was close to the 13 O, but the D didn't suck in 2013 in a strong Offensive year for the SEC.

It's not worth posting facts. The less miles fans don't care.

I agree with this post. Miles is average. Period. And LSU will be an average program until he is run out.

Yes this nonsense FACT that you post.

LSU gave up more rush yards per game than they have since the 90s, in 2013. Which means our run defense was the worst it had been in 14+ years!

Sure the pass defense improved from 2012, but we still were ranked 73rd in interceptions and 88th in forced fumbles. You know what that means? it means that we didn't do enough to get our offense more snaps. We were 61st in turnover margin. We haven't been that bad since 2008.

We were 23rd in scoring offense at 35.8 ppg, but 21st with 22 pts given up per game. We hadn't given up that much since 2008.

We were 53rd in opponent 3rd down conversion, we hadn't been anywhere near that bad since 2009

You are pretty hilarious. it's like saying Clemson's defense is really the best defense in the country because of total offense given up.

They have only played one team in the top 25 of total offense in GT. GT put up 28 points, 102 pass yards, and 251 rush yards on them.

As a matter of fact, the only other teams in the top 40 (UGA, FSU, UNC) put up a lot of yards and points.

UGA 459 yards 45 points loss
FSU 317 yards (304 pass yards) 23 points loss
UNC 478 yards 50 points loss

You can't take things like total yards on the surface.
