He nailed it on the head. His play calling is making out offensive line look terrible. Who knows how good they could be if the other team doesn't play 8 in the box without fear of being punished for it. Les said that if teams continue to defend them this way, The Tigers are going to make them pay. But he also has said numerous times that R. Shepard was going to touch the ball 10 or 12 times every game.

Makes sense, you may have found the key to getting the chemistry back where it was in 2007. Maybe a chance to be competitive in the SEC again.

Only question I have is why hasn't Miles given Crowton the confidence he needs or maybe Miles feels the same way?

Either way this game is time to "let her rip".

Last year, it wasn't that they threw the ball, it was when and how. The first play against UGA, we had an empty backfield, which meant we had to throw. Crowton put all the pressure on the weakest player on the offense. Against Bama, he had Lee throwing on third and long when we were ahead or tied. He should have run the ball and punted. It was poor overall game management. I think they are making a concerted effort not to have all the pressure on Jefferson, but they will have to throw some more than they have.

His facts, observations, conclusions and speculation sound totally valid to me.

Whatever the problems let's hope today is the day that it gets turned around and started in a more positive direction for everyone except our weekly opponents and their collective fan bases.

Geaux you hairy Tigahs!!
