Averaging 4.3 yards per carry, the Tigers have run the ball more times (157) than all but six other teams in the Football Bowl Subdivision. They’re running almost three times more often than they’re passing — a 73/27 split that, for now, is the biggest differential in coach Les Miles’ 10 years at the school.


Wow...

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. LSU wins with this style of play.

Would you rather throw the ball 40 times a game like the Saints? Oh, they are 0 and 2 right now.

The ones bitching will be the first ones to ask why we didn't run the ball after a pick 6.

A win is a win. All that matters is the fricking W.

3-0 and #8 in the country. Wtf is there to complain about exactly? Oh the fact Miles is protecting his young QB by running the ball? Nah, I'm good.

Would you be happier if we threw the ball 35 times a game and were 0-2 or 1-1?

besides making a bunch of rantards feel icky has this been proven to be an ineffective play? Didn't Fournette score on that play?

Everyone knew we were gonna run it 50 times a game in the offseason.

Why is it a big deal now all of a sudden?

I can bring up a slew of posts and posters who said time and again that we would run about 70% of the time this year considering QB issues and WR issues. Nobody should be surprised, and this was pretty much expected from just about everybody on this board.

IMO though, unless we can consistently get push up front, we will look like shite against MSU, Auburn, UF, and Bama trying to run the ball the whole game. I don't think he should go Bret ball. We need to balance it at least 65/35.

right now, we are averaging 72 plays a game. I think it will be closer to 67-68 once SEC play starts.

I've watched the game again, and we attempted a lot of short passes early, half were dropped. After that, it seemed like we just wanted to run the ball and get the game over with. MSU's weakness is their porous defense. They are giving up 311 ypg through the air against terrible competition. We should start off throwing to catch them off guard.
