Really? We made Bama use their timeouts and then they took about 40 seconds to score a TD. The time was meaningless. Miles did the right thing and tried to move the ball.
Exactly. Priority #1 there was to get the 1st down and extend the drive. You call the plays that you feel give us the best opportunity to do so, regardless if they milk the clock.
eta: personally I would have ran it on 2nd and 2, but coaches thought otherwise.

So because we lost the Bama game the calls in the Clemson game were correct, even though we lost the Clemson game too?
Do people forget that when we ran on Bama we needed to get 8 yards on 3rd down, versus 2 yards on second down? Is it so important to service the stupid analogy that you forget basic and important facts about down and distance?
If your power running team can't get 1 yard a down running the ball against a mediocre defense like Clemson then your team is not very good.
And I'm fine saying that, LSU was not very good and that is because the coaching, particularly on offense, was a failure.

It's a valid point. I think you would have been facing third and four, but who knows.
