it's a fact other teams did better against lsu defense than Bama did. However, you are not saying how poorly coached Bama was? Considering LSU had 125 yard offense, Bama should have done much better having the ball that many times and that much longer. Why did they do so poorly? had to be coaching.

better OC would have done better. We have a great defense and Bama got double our yards. There's no excuse for 125 yards. I don't care how bad our oline is.

I can agree with this point. However, you think Ogeron has the O.C. he wants? He had to use a make shift offensive staff, a scheme that was already in place, and less talented team on the offensive side of the ball (qb and line) to try and compete with the best defense in the land. Somehow, considering he had one hand tied, he was suppose to perform better. I think that is unfair situation to place blame on. If anything, It justifies why miles was fired. He did a poor Job recruiting ab's, a poor job in hiring and recruiting the line.

At the end of the day in 2011, there was no one on par with lsu and Bama. However, the teams could only muster a 9-6 game. It's how close they are. Almost every time they play it's low scoring.

It sounds like you want the coordinators to do all the work for O. I'll pass. I would rather have a good coach. It sounds like you want to give O credit for everything good and blame something else on everything bad.

It also sounds like you want to have a coach who doesn't actually coach anything. He's just a motivational speaker. He relies on coordinators to do all the heavy lifting and blame when something goes wrong. They'll also be here for three years or less.

Give me a coach who could can actually run things on his own if need be. Someone who trains coordinators, not the other way around. Someone who wouldn't miss a beat if their coordinator left. O has not exactly had a very successful defense without Aranda. I would hate for Aranda to leave and we be stuck to look for another genius.

I'll pass on O for sure.
