Every completion, 1st down, pass to a TE, pass for a TD, puts the pressure on Less. We've been told for the past few years now that we don't have the personnel to run certain packages and every time DE completed a pass, it showed that maybe we've been lied to. It was in his Less' best interest to shut it down.

Yes because being fired is so much better than being wrong. That is the stupidest reasoning I read on here.

Pains me to say this, cause up to now I was CLM all the way. Amongst SEC coaches Les Miles is a Tier 2 Coach (bordering on Tier 3). He simply cannot adapt and much less adjust to game situations. On the Etling interception, hey the guy was a sub. If allowed he will improve. Etling is better game manager.....period.

His (Miles) offense is way too predictable. I mean dang, give me a break. Throw in some misdirection plays, maybe throw in an occasional flea flicka on an end around. Anything to create some hesitation by them linebackers. If you OL isn't getting the job done and you're primarily smash mouth, don't take a rocket scientist to figure out any DC worth his salary is going to zero in on your QB and rattle him. IMO that's what happened in this Wisky game. Wisky stacked the box, and dared LSU to throw. We know what happened. Miles could not (or would not) adjust.

I ain't no coach. Even I can figure out LSU's problem, and the problem is in the mind of that guy being paid $ 4.38 million dollars.
