Tell you what to do genuine tiger. On Friday get out your madden game and play against whatever team LSU is playing the next day. Then go to Coach Miles office and tell him that you have all the plays he needs for a win

I'm not sure whats funnier, your post or the people that think you are seriously suggesting you could give miles some pointers.

Well Done, troll on brother, troll on.

From my observations and analysis of our offense and it's woes, I would say Miles is in way over his head. He's not using the personnel properly and his time management skills are lacking. I have never coached a game but I feel sure I could give Miles some immediate pointers which would be very beneficial and get this offense clicking on a few cylinders










You can't be fricking serious... This is exactly one of the reasons I hate the rant

I cannot, for the life of me, understand why people would think otherwise. It will not change as long as he is the head coach... period... And giving Cam and extension and a raise is just madness.. He should have been given a one maybe two year contract that was extremely heavy incentive based. If he wants that 1.5 mill his offense is gonna have to put up some numbers and get creative.

Slowly? Like 11 years of slow.

Was at Arky game in south endzone and first few possessions were shotgun and 3 wide.
Harris was inaccurate on first down passes in most if not all of those possessions and that basically was that. Miles went back to running the ball as the only way to move ball consistently. We all know the end to that story.

The only two things they aren't doing with the LSU offense, I swear people don't actually watch the games on this board sometimes.


No obviously you don't. We don't use much misdirection in our run game. 90%+ is us lining up saying that our guy can beat your guy. That's nice and all against the weaker competition, but we get our shite pushed in vs bigger guys when our OL can't out man the DL.

We also don't run 3 WRs as our base offense and you know that. People bring up what we did vs Ole Miss and Arkansas (shotgun 3, 4 wide), you can't do that type of shite part of the time. You have to commit to a philosophy and preferably not one stuck in the stone age. All of a sudden when they really needed the passing game, it floundered because they didn't do that from the beginning of the season.

It's a lot more easier to turn into a running team if passing is your strength than turning into a passing team when running is your strength. Neither should be a weakness though (maybe one is just more utiliized because of preference). Preferably I'd like a balanced offense. Something like 28-30 passing plays along with 45-47 rushing plays on average.

Which is what many of us predicted after the first few games of the year. When we really needed the passing game, it wouldn't be there for us. Adding more passing isn't a magic pill in 1-2 games. Going shotgun 3-4-5 wide isn't a magic pill in 1-2 games. You have to commit to a change in practice and how you teach. Your offense HAS TO CHANGE.

This isn't the days when Herschel Walker, Bo Jackson and those guys were pretty much the whole offense. You can't win that way anymore with that straightforward running game and nothing else.

LSU's run offense is based on misdirection, whenever you see the tailback jab one way and go the other direction at the start of the play there is misdirection involved. The offense Cameron is running is the same one he used while coaching Ladainian Thomlison and in Baltimore. It's the same offense the Dallas used in their Super Bowl years. I guess when you speak of misdirection, you're speaking of the Auburn style plays which to me is more trickery than anything.

3 wr sets are apart of LSU's base package, it's not the team's main offensive set. They ran more 3-4 wr sets last year than people perceive. If the plays were more successful this wouldn't be an issue. As far the ole miss and arky games, they had to throw the ball after thinking they could come out and run over teams that are building to complete with Bama like we were doing at one point. I could care less that they had to throw 50 times to still get blown out. The truth is the team needs to put the ball in the air to win in the final stretch of the season. Bama was probably the only team built to smash mouth everyone in the country the last two seasons, they had maulers across the board. LSU always seem to have two and the rest of the o-line playing out of position (Pocic)
