Why does LSU use the toss to exchange the ball from QB to the RB?

This seems to be a signature of our running game but it sure seems like the RB has to look at the ball first and secure it before he can look for a lead block or hole.
Can someone put some reasoning into this method?
Also seems like it could be a fumble waiting to happen though we seem to seldom cough it up.

we never fumble it, but it limits the RB and still makes no sense
but hey, we're the only team in football right now that does it, and we dominate our division so it's obviously our secret to winning titles

Ive seen it stated by coaches that it gets the ball in the rbs hands faster and gives them a chance to see the field quicker.

Gets the ball to the back quicker allowing him to pick a hole. It is a good play.

it's miles' signature play. it has been for years now.

Same question, different day. Same answer - it gets the ball in the RB's hands quicker, giving him more time and space to find an opening and attack it.

It's an awful play that preceded Cam Cameron at LSU... which is good evidence Les's Michigan Big Two offense holds too much sway here.

It allows the runner to get the ball faster, he can see the whole developing much quicker, and he can decide if he needs to make a cut sooner rather than later. This isn't a LSU thing some college programs and NFL teams use the same play and it works most of the time.

Remember when we scored the touchdown on that play last night?
that was awesome.
that was awesome.

So Hawthorne can follow the play easier.
