That's what leads me to believe it was more a case of Les truly feeling he was doing a noble thing by taking a knee rather than an attempt to send a message to Mett.
I wouldn't want to try to get inside the mind of Les Miles but I suspect if he were truly angry with his QB then Mett would have come off the field and spoken too in private. Taking a knee with five minutes to play just to discipline a single player is extreme IMHO.

This. I doubt if it was intentional but its flat out disrespecting to the other team. No way Les takes that risk just to discipline one player.
Les thought he was doing the right thing by not scoring.

well that's why i said i don't think either was that serious. i think if miles was truly mad something would've happened in private (and it still might have).
i see it more like "ok you guys wanna get cute, how's this for cute" and mett being like "ok coach you got us". i think mett knows what he did was wrong and not a serious offense. like when an entire class goofs around and you get called on it. you take the punishment bc you thought the goofing around was worth it.
i don't see this as a major issue or an overstep by miles. and in hindsight i think its funny.
