People who think this is Les's fault are ridiculous.

Did you watch our D or Mett throw 3 ints? 520yds allowed and you're yelling about 30 seconds?

He made the last mistake, and of the three (Mett, D, and Miles) his is the most inexcusable.

It was a whole team shitshow. Les is at fault, but not only for the last 30 seconds.

Les is responsible for preparing the team to win a game. He failed miserably at that task this week.

Isn't it Les's job to recruit top flight talent? So if that talent is missing on defense, isn't that his responsibility? It doesn't help that he had another inexplicable frick-up managing the end of the game, but it's understandable that he's going to get some heat for losing to a depleted, thoroughly mediocre Ole Miss team.

This isn't on Les. It's on Mett's poor decisions (which is on Cam) and Chavis' weak arse defense.

No, this isn't Coach Miles's fault. It can't be the Head Coach's fault.

The D sucked.

But that doesn't change the fact that not taking the timeout was just stupid. Admit it, it was just plain dumb.

All of that being said, you can't give the HC credit for wins if he doesn't also take the blame for losses.

We were yelling for them to run the ball more on the last drive to eat clock, but they got pass happy and left OM too much time

it's his job to make sure they're ready to play at a high level, which he consistently fails to do. every year.

3 Interceptions. 2 in the endzone. We get a blessing on the 10 yard line and can only get 3

I am sorry. We lost and we deserved to lose. However, Miles had to take a time out with 25 sec to give his team a chance. You never know what could happen. It only takes one or two plays to get in field goal range. He is the worst gameday coach in the history of the program if not College football. He cannot manage the clock to save his life. I am not a Miles hater, but he is awful at managing the game. Why did we only have 1time out at the end anyway? I believe although it was not said on tv, we took a time out after a tv time out just before we punted on 4th down. Wtf? Then we took another time out after we missed on 3rd and 10. Shouldn't the decision to go for it have already been made. Just awful.

Les is responsible period. He has yet to field a team of his own capable of being dominate in all three phases of the game. Too many juniors leaving a void in leadership. Guys I don't believe we will ever win another championship under Les Miles. I just don't see it.

This team is young and we are all upset right now.

I know I am because I care.

But ultimately the head coach is responsible for the effort of his team.

I support Les Miles and always will but that doesn't mean I don't hold him accountable for having his team ready to play.

This ole miss team was injured everywhere and we didn't seem to care until the third qtr.

Another thing is LSU is an undisciplined team. Our players talk trash and get selfish 15 yard penalties without even getting talked too.

Mills would have been pulled off the field and screamed at if he was my player because his 15 yard personal foul penalty was inexcusable and selfish and I wont have players that care more about themselves.

And that is on the head coach.

As a Les Miles supporter I will call him out when he doesn't do what we pay him to do and this loss is on him.

You sir, are spot on. The 2nd timeout was HORRIBLE. U either kick a FG or have a play ready. Having 2 timeouts in their last drive woulda been invaluable
