The offense is ranked 27th. That's a vast improvement.

He said we had 500+ yards of offense and we scored 41 points. Before you try to correct him at least make sure he posted something that was incorrect!

What happens when that doesn't work against Alabama?


so the offense should be re-designed because it may not work against Alabama? Should we copy all those teams that have been successful against Alabama the past few years?

Why doesn't LSU throw the ball over the lot like the Saints do? How hard can that possibly be?
Why didn't LSU score 60+ points?
Why didn't LSu pitch a shut out?
Is The Chief getting old?

My friends last night was a disaster on the level of Katina. We are DOOOOOOOOOMED

I am failing to understand why you guys are freaking out over the terrific execution of a gameplan.

You're missing the point, North Texas game was not about the result


You are all missing the point. The entire aim of last nights game from a COACHES and TEAMS perspective was to execute. It was not to see what we can do to make big plays. Y'all are all looking at the game from a FANS perspective.

I now know where the term "ranter" came from.

No, you should adjust your gameplan to exploit their weaknesses.

92 yards, 5 first downs...the offensive play calling that garnered those monster numbers was the same play calling as last night

Does working on executing a competent passing game not fall under the umbrella of execution? I couldn't care less about stats.

So why do people have any issue with what we did last night. We did exactly that against North Texas. Why should we treat them any differently than Bama when it comes to trying to exploit their weaknesses.

Everyone wanted to see fireworks. Get over it. This isn't 2006 when we had 4 NFL receivers and a #1 overall QB.

After reading this board today, it is apparent that LSU didn't do that. I mean only 500+ yards of offense? Come on man!!

We did not exploit last night, we took what NT gave us.

But, but, but...what bout the vertical game???

Shouldn't we force a 1st time starting QB to throw deeper at dbs playing 5-10 yds off our WRs at the LOS?

Anyway, us posting here know far better what O to run than one of the most successful staffs in the college game today.

Amusing part is, if had thrown deeper or more into the coverage and had more picks/lower complete rate, it would be: "why in the hell did we do that when the No Tex D was giving our WRs 5-10 yds off the LOS".

Can't please everyone. That's why successful coaching staffs/school leaders who have successful staffs working for them don't care a flip what us fans want or think.

And so far in the case of LSU/Miles, its a damn good thing they haven't paid us fans any mind cause we been wayyyyyyyyyy more wrong than right...go figure.

and what would those be? If Bama's had a weakness the past couple of years it's been defending option variants. They've feasted on drop-back passers.

(and I'm not in anyway defending the horrendous game plan on 1/9)

You people are fricking infantile. That was one game, and the defensive formation North Texas had did not dictate airing it out. We probably would have tried vertical play action passes if they could have consistently stopped the run.

Why would you try to throw it down the field and negatively affect Mettenberger's confidence? I know y'all don't want to hear it, but we need Mettenberger to be a game manager and that's it. The fact that he has a cannon for an arm doesn't change the fact that we are a run-heavy, run-first team.
