But I don't understand what seemed to be a 180 degree change regarding our offensive playcalling with JJ last night.


And why do you feel you're OWED an explanation? Why does Miles have to answer to you? Who the frick are you? Just an idiot over-pimping your inability to understand the coach's decision. Worse than an Alabama fan( and they had cause).

ETA: If the game was ever in doubt- you would have room to wonder and second guess the gameplan. Just because it makes no sense to you does not mean it isn't valid.

Despite his limited role this year, not sure this would be necessary considering how long he's been playing for us.


Generally, I would agree with you.

I do think his lack of PT with the new OC/new offense affects that somewhat.

Exactly. So you prefer the "style" not the actual production.

I'll happily taken damn near 500 yards and 42 points every week, even if it's ugly as sin.





Not really. What style points do you get for running the ball 50 times in a game and throwing it a handful of times. I do prefer when we actually use effective running plays that have worked throughout this entire season, and worked last night when we finally ran a read option with Blue in the game and his td.

And I'll give you the benefit of the doubt there. I think that's what Miles will say, just not sure I'm completely buying/understanding it. It's not like we threw the ball all over the field last night, we still ran the ball twice as much as we ran.

Most base, idiotic argument you can make. Most of us are beyond this childishness.

Since most of this is looking at scheme, I would say this is full of fail. Again, you can't see beyond one individual player.


What? He said the offense didnt look as fluid and put the blame on the fact that it was JJ and not JL. Specifically citing TOP. The playcalling last night was completely different. We threw the ball much more early in the game did not try to establish the run+had a turnover which caused TOP early to suffer. How does any of that relate to JJ and how can it be blamed on the fact that he was qb and not lee? We called the game differently because we were practicing things and this caused the TOP and flow to be different

No, you're just a fricking idiot. It's a message board. People post their opinions. I am doing that. Miles owes me nothing, he can do what has continue to make us successful, and I'll continue to support him. One fricking thread isn't changing my support, even though you would like to present me as this negatiger. Go drum up posts from last year and see how negative I am about Miles and this staff.

Oh so this is the only time a discussion on a message board is acceptable? You're a fricking joke.

I think you are answering your own question regarding the difference in play calling.

These types of games are generally best used for experimentation IMO.

Goal no. 1 against a vastly inferior opponent is make sure everyone comes out healthy.

Goal no. 2 is to work on things that need some polishing.

Victory is assumed in these games.

Why run plays we already know are successful? It's not as if we "need" them. I think the coaches wanted to try out some new things with JJ because they know what they have in the outside and option run game with him and because they know what they have in Lee.

The problem wasn't the QB, it was the scheme. JJ has been smooth running the offense this year, a different offense. It had a much different feel last night, no biggie. Don't get your feelings hurt. In the end, LSU won, it worked. Nothing wrong with discussing particulars. If you don't like it, don't participate.

But it's too coincidental at this point. This is the type of team we are when we start JJ


And I'm the fricking joke.

No, you are still of the belief I'm a negative fan against this staff and question everything they do. Or you believe I'm this rabid supporter of either JJ or JLee and everything I post is aimed at pervading this board with that opinion.

None of that is true, none of that can be proven as true, and you're just acting like a little bitch.

Exactly then tell that to the guy who placed the blame on JJ in the orignal post

As I did. Much more so then the guy saying vauge things like-"it just didnt flow...JL just makes this offense better...JJ just isnt as good of a qb" I gave specifics on why drives stalled (which werent JJs fault) why we had less TOP and why the game plan was different.

That's a good question, where has he gone?

Really, I think he's just a super freak athlete that isn't particularly great at football. He's not reliable IMO.

It not the team we played that decides anything for some, it's our QB who starts.

All you have to do is to look at the reaction by some to this game and the reaction to the Northwestern St. game.

The only difference between those 2 games, other which QB started, was that NWS had bout 25 fewer players to use than WKU, but some kinda big deal is made out of a 42-9 win vs. WKS and little to nothing was said bout a 49-3 win over a undermanned NWS...go figure.

I think one of my major complaints in this thread was the playcalling.
