You do realize it was the closest game we had with bama it sometime don't you?
Yes I realize because I was there and we had our chances. LF didn't have his greatest game because he missed many holes that were there, he simply didnt give his best effort. Besides that was with Les miles offense revamped. If that was Les Miles only loss every year and the game was played that close every year he would still be here.
You just made my argument for me. Even in the FL loss we looked great on offense, moving the ball down field all day. We couldn't get in the endzone, fumbled the ball on a couple of occasions basically the players lost that game. Those type of losses can be accepted once in a while unless it becomes a standard. The one at auburn and Wisconsin can't be accepted, where it was obvious that we should have won those game if not for play calling through out the entire game.
There was no effort from the coaches to try different things to get into the endzone. Les Miles was fine with punting the ball and letting the defense make a play. As a HC you shouldn't be ok with punting the ball all darn day, Les was. I don't know what people like you saw on the field when Les was here and then when he left because in my eyes it was a dramatic difference which showed me that Les and staff either didn't know what they were doing or simply didn't give a darn.
A punt should only be used when your offense has exhausted every option, if it doesn't work in drive one you should probably change it up a little at least. Les would run the same exact plays or offense on the following drive when the first one had no shot. This is what got Les fired. The shite was old and tiresome. Glad we've moved on from that clown.

1970s-era "wear 'em down" style Big 10 football mentality. It's what he knew. It doesn't work today.

Actually it was the worst loss to them in Tiger Stadium since 2002.
