Bad Coaching, No Thinking, Bad Secondary Play

As I watched another LSU give away, yesterday what upset me the most was how this team reverts back to ways of old teams with stupid play calls, stupid penalties, and just out right stupidity. I know these are harsh words but I'll back it up and even use some history.
First the play calling. I know Jefferson and Lee are freshman, but after taking the lead, they didn't do anything in the 3rd or 4th quarters. The play calling was horrible again. What happened to a screen pass or a bubble screen to the wideouts. Why do they keep calling roll out plays to the right side that lead to lost yards or incomplete passes or quarterback draws when the defense knows its coming??????
Second, the stupid penalties (#47) on 3rd and 29. Or the kicked ball (#84 Elam). Ridiculous! I firmly believe that maybe w/o those, we win the game.
Third, we know the secondary is bad...getting better but bad. How many times will they keep giving up TD when they KNOW...THEY KNOW that an opponent has to score one to win the game...ala Iowa in the Capitol One Bowl...or Arkansas again w/ Matt Jones when Saban was there. How many times will the secondary let people get behind them when its the only way they can win???????
Lastly, when Chad Jones gets the ball to mid field w/ 21 seconds left. WE CAN'T GET AT LEAST 10 TO 15 yards to set up our field goal kicker???????? RIDICULOUS...RIDICULOUS.....RIDICULOUS!!!!!!

Hugging a player who just resuscitated a beaten opponent with a stupid personal foul is "bad coaching"? Don't be so cynical!
