Is it fair to say this is overall the best coached LSU team since the Saban era?

Yeah, let’s act like the previous coach never won games and the team never looked good

If your goal is to ignore a particular coach's accomplishments, sure.

Well, considering it’s the best coaching staff since then...yes.

Yes. This team is very mature, and just doesn’t beat themselves.

2007 was an extremely well coached team and, frankly, so was the 2011 - 2011 just didn't have a QB and no amount of chemical experimentation could cook us up one out of thin air (Mett wasn't ready).

2005 and 2006 were incredibly well coached teams as was 2013.

Dumb thread is dumb.

(2019 is a fantastic fricking LSU football team, though - coaches, players and, save a few whining pussies, fans, etc.)


ETA: If this team closes the deal, finishes undefeated and the CFB playoffs? It is either:

1. The best LSU team - ever, or

2. Co-equal with 1958, which was a pretty bad arse team filled with two way players who didn't even grasp the concept of losing.

All I can say is that we don’t see the same time mismanagement issues we had under Les. Of course, there are far fewer close games.

Yes.
Herbstreit noted that after the Texas game. Execution, fundamentals, no penalties = top flight coaching.

Don't know and don't care about comparisons

But we rarely turn it over, dumb penalties are dropping, clock management is solid and we are adapting as we need to

So I'm pretty happy with the state of the program, it's in good hands

Come on. 2011 would go down as the greatest season in CFB history if Alabama wasn’t given a mulligan. Everyone is glad to be where we are. I just don’t get why there is a need to shite on Miles at this point.

You ask this almost as if Saban had a team at LSU that could stay on the field with this team. Dumb arse thread that I'm sorry I can only downvote once.

This LSU Club is extremely well-coached. The 2011 team was horrifically coached in the national championship game, so that entire season was a stinky sh*t as far as I'm concerned. The 2007 team Pelini was atrocious in the 2 losses, but we somehow won a national title, so it's tricky. The 2 losses were absolute horrors, so I'm not going to pretend the coaching was the greatest. You wussies that prefer to pretend otherwise are thinking with your hearts instead of your brains.

This topic ruffled a lot of feathers here I see. The fact is this OP - like him or not - is 100% correct.

I'll give you an example of how well coached we are....our WR's dont even use great technique and get off the ball at the snap every play and we still end up EXACTLY where they need to be. They shift and motion and end up in the right spot...we never run the "wrong routes" with two people in the same area. They KNOW exactly what to do every play and at any pace!


Also, the fourth down where we tried to get Bama to jump towards the end of the game....we shifted, flipped, went under center with about 8 counts and didn't budge....good coaching there. Can you imagine trying to do that in the Miles era?
