If Miles couldn't win with Mett, Hill, Ware, OBJ, and Landry on offense then there will never be a next year.

I have nothing against Les, but he will never release control and allow change. I commend him in what he has accomplished at LSU, but for having the highest paid staff in the nation and butt loads of NFL talent he just isn't getting over the mediocrity hump.

I'm ready for change, but I'm also hopeful that Miles will right this ship and this team becomes the team we all want it to be.

That's my biggest thing. The defense sucked bad that year, but that offense still failed against Bama. Currently the defense isn't much better than 2013 but the offense is not even close. And while the 2013 offense was very good, it was still middle of the SEC pack.

It'll be the same as it has been. Mediocre seasons, wasted talent, and running Fournette into a wall constantly. Nothing new here.

Always an excuse for landing 4th in the west. UCLA has a true freshman playing QB and had a really great year.





Ha ha. They lost 4 games. So a 4 loss ucla is great year but a 3 loss Miles team is utter disappointment.

bullshite. Only because we don't run a HUNH. In 2013 we were 12th in the country in yards per play but were 105th in plays ran so it made our totals lower. Total offense is skewed stat. Yard per play is a pure stat because it isn't skewed by the amount of plays ran. Make no mistake in 2013 lsu was one of the 15 best offenses when the ball was snapped.

LSU 12th in the country in offensive yards per play in 2013.
LSU was 9th in the country in points per play in 2013

These rankings prove that the only reason our totals were low was because we don't run a bunch of plays and not because our offense wasn't successful. Using totals as a measuring stick for a defense or offense's success is flawed.

In what reality is finishing top 15 mediocre?
