Yes LSU almost blew a big lead but it was not bc Les went ultra conservative after getting up to a big lead.

LSU stayed aggressive on offense but continually shot themselves in the foot with crucial penalties and our best player fumbled 2x when LSU was driving the ball.

I still think it's too little to late but at least it's something.

Ditto. Play calling was better execution was off. They lost the momentum, Dline and LBs saved the day.

We as fans and even the tv commentators were bewildered at how we play a "good" game and almost lose. It's like as LSU fans you just expect it now. Lost of focus and intensity are probably where Les has failed us most.

The rant is apparently the lowest of the low. I didn't think it would take that smart of a fan to realize that while this looked like a typical Miles game....it wasn't.

I can't remember the last time the play calling was like that.

tin foil alert -

Miles is letting his coordinators call the plays so that if he gets fired this year, they'll land good jobs elsewhere.

Miles did not change his philosophy. He gave control, probably forced too, to Cam.

There were a couple possessions with vanilla play calling but it wasn't just that obviously although the last series was pretty bad play-wise.

Running lanes open up far more with DE throwing the ball around.

The team that played the 1st half can compete with anyone. All 3 phases were very good, minus the kick out of bounds.

More than anything else in the 2nd half, the 2 fumbles by LF hurt us. More so than the play calling. Both drives were gonna end up TD's and either would have broke the spirit of State.

At some point I said to myself we've really passes the ball more than ran it. Like I was actually wanting a toss dive at some points. It was a beautiful feeling.

With the exception of the last drive I agree. That was "I trust my defense more than my offense" play calling at its finest

I think losing our opener for the first time under Les will end up being a blessing disquise.
