Heres to hoping Miles keeps his foot on the gas this year.

Too many games have been close due to being ultra conservative in the 4th.
See: Miss State '14.
To win, we HAVE to light the scoreboard up and keep the same offensive punishment.

For every game Miles has lost by being conservative in the fourth, he's probably won 5 or 6 by running on a worn out defense and eating clock. There was a stat floating out there somewhere that LSU had some ridiculously high win pct when leading at the start of the fourth quarter.
I would much rather see Miles stop treating the first half like a warmup.

Agree, I would say too many games have been close due to being ultra conservative when 2 scores ahead.

If keeping his foot on the gas means running LF up the middle 90% of the time. Les has it covered.
Les will snatch mediocrity out of the jaws of excellence.

Usually against good teams.
And sometimes Miles blows the doors off good teams.
Funny how no one calls out saban for eaking by in games, or Meyer, or Brian Kelly, or Jimbo.
Other teams have talent and good coaches.

all I can say is that les mile lives to WIN. he doesn't give a shite about style points. he plays each game to win. if he thinks going into an offensive "cacoon" and using the clock will win the game that's what he does. if works on an overall basis; not so much on a game to game basis.

Haven't you heard? Our Qb is lazy and not very accurate

Im looking at things like last season we put up 30+ pts in 10 games. We put up 40+ pts in 5 of those games and finished with 56 pts against Texas Tech.
The off and def are taking strides forward this year. We've got weapons, experience, and leaders all over the field. Next man up is going to be huge for us.
I don't think Miles is coaching for his job. I think Miles floors it all season in hope of another extension. I think we have an incredible staff that really meshes well with these kids. I'd love to read yalls opinion about that too.

It's been 10 years. It won't happen.

I have no idea why you cited a game where LSU was losing 34-10 at the start of the 4th quarter, and then scored 19 unanswered in the 4th to make it close but still lost, as an example of a close game where LSU was ultra conservative in the 4th quarter . I'm trying to think of a game that is a worse example of your initial premise and I literally can't think of a single one. I'm guessing you meant a different game, maybe State in 2015?
Regardless, as far as I can tell the difference between LSU's aggressive offense and LSU's conservative offense is that the former results in more first downs and touchdowns. And I don't mean that the different strategy results in more first downs and touchdowns, I mean that retroactively if a drive is successful then it is labeled as aggressive and if it resulted in a punt fans consider it "conservative".
