Definitely didn't come out together. Very scattered and very unusual from a buddy of mine who went to all games.
I went to every game. It was very unusual.

There's a reason for it

It probably stems from what happened during the locker room at half-time. Apparently some very unpleasant business occurred which split the team.

By even observing what the OP observed makes him a traitor fan.

It is because Miles is an idiot and is willing to wreck the ship instead of admitting he could possibly be wrong.
Players AND other LSU coaches wanted to see Lee in the 2nd half. Miles refused.

Well I can tell you this, Ive been going to games since 1965 and if they didnt come out as a unit that is definitely the first time that I have heard of that happening. Granted i havent been to every game since 1965 but I can assure you ive never seen that in any game that i have attended which is well over the hundereds during my lifetime. I believe what you say and that is very strange.

I keep hearing about these confrontations but until some solid evidence comes out it's just rumor. It makes sense though.

Rooad, not trying to be a jackleg, but why do you want to deny everything. If people were at the game and said the team came out in different units after halftime, that is strange and ive never seen it that way not with LSU at least and ive been attending games both home and away and bowl games too since 1965. Now were you at the game and saw them all come out as one unit after halftime. if you did then please let us know.

I was at the game and noticed it too. The way the team came out for the 2nd half was strange. What other people have said in this thread is true. Didn't know what to think of it at the time.

It happened ... I swear ... no one told me this ... I SAW IT WITH MY OWN FREAKING EYES and pointed it out to my husband.
I agree .. Bama kicked the arse of the team playign that night BUT that was NOT the Tiger team that I watched during EVERY HOME GAME THIS YEAR nor was it the same TIGER team that I watched EVERY away game that was on tv.
We lost. This is not about being sore losers ... it is just saying that you could tell "something" was amiss when they came out of the locker room.

Yea and it seems like the majority of people recognized this. Hell I just rewatched the first half and everyones expressions seemed really strange. Funny how some are in denial, and the ones brave enough to post information the threads get whacked or anchored. Too many people with similar stories for some of it not to be true.

Im glad Tiger91 and diehardfan are posting this. As i told my wife and obviously being up here in Big Sky country now , all I could see is what I had on TV and I said this doesnt even closely resemble anything I have seen all year. Granted, I give Bama their due, props etc . they were the better team and probably the best team all year and may be we were lucky to beat them on Nov 5th but I m so glad you are pointing this out because I knew something was amuck and my wife who watches very little football with me commented on how lethargic we looked. If we came out after halftime in separate units, something was going on . That is very odd and again ive been going to games since 1965 and still contribute to TAF and kept my season tickets for my cousin and Bro in Law, Ive never never never seen LSU come out in separatre units either right before the game or halftime. Thanks so much for bringing this insight to the forefront. Where there is smoke , there is fire.

I started rewatching the DVR of the game ... only made it through the first few series but I really wanted to see warmups and sideline coaches faces. We were in the terrace and I couldn't see facial reactions/player interactions real well.
From what little I rewatched I did NOT see much indication of problems ... yet. We'll see what I can pick up on but it is SO hard to watch.

I'm not anyone that has "sources" and I hate when people claim to have inside information. However, I work with someone who has a son on the team. They said that their son told them that he knew they had lost at halftime because of the fighting and players blaming other in the lockerroom. They didn't elaborate whether it hqd anything to do with the QB situation or anything else specifically. You can take it FWIW, believe me or call me a liar, a hack, or whatever you would like it really doesn't matter to me. Just sharing what was told to me by one of the player's parents.

Thanks for posting. The Sunshine Pumpers will bash the shite out of you, but I appreciate it.

Just so disheartening that in a season where we seemed to have the ultimate team chemistry, the whole thing fell apart at the end due to infighting.
Posted on 1/12/12 at 10:56 pm to tiger91
Please Tiger91 as you are watching, and I know it is difficult to do, focus in on some of the body language on the sidelines . Seems like at one point a lot of heads were hanging down and JJ was on the bench by himself. On the Other side , the cameras showed a shot of mccarron going and put his arm around Richardson and Im assuming encouraging him because he at that time wasnt getting al ot of carries. Anyway if you dont mind , please let us know if you see anything out of the ordinary. Again, as you mentioned , coming out in fragmented units after halftime is highly unusual. thanks

Sounds very believable, its not that much of a stretch either. This happens on all different levels in lockerrooms. I want so and so to play, nah...so and so should play. After three years of JL and JJ splitting time and all the off the field happenings this year, being their senior seasons, last game of the year, and a championship to boot I can see how it happened. Hindsight is 20/20, should Miles have seen this coming ..probably...should he have continued splitting their time to keep everyone somewhat a little more happy, sure. Sux....it happened..nothing we can do about it now...METT time baby.
