who the frick are you to judge what my credentials are in the first place. I am a fan and am entitled to my opinion. Just because you don't agree with it doesnt mean we need to get into a pissing match. I make observations like you or anyone else does. Its judgement,perception and belief.

And I believe Miles is the weak link on this team. I love him as our CEO, but he must get out of the offense and hire a true (accountable) OC asap !!!

....which ones in particular.....you are aware that Mr #1 from Dutchtown was NEVER coming to LSU? Girlfriends' momma is LSU jaded BIG TIME.

List the ones we lost and you may be surprised to learn that they were not lost at all.

I have said that I don't blame the players. Do they make mistakes, yes, but it is the coaches job to correct them and if they continue to make them to put someone else in that can do the job. They are there to teach guys. We obviously have the talent, so that should not be the question. My beef is we have seen this show before. Auburn in 06, Tennessee in 05 and 2010, Kentucky in 07, Ole Miss in 09, etc. It was coaching that did us in and seems that we still have the same issues. Time Management, confusion, no adjustments made, etc. No, I don't expect them to go undefeated every year, but I think if we had some semblance of offense we would be a lot better. With the talent we have, why are we so bad offensively statistically in the passing game? I think these are fair questions.

BigEd just eluded to the original question......and stop with all the !!!!!!!!

Without that weak link, LSU likely misses out on having its winningest era in football history. Also remember that Les brought Chavis here....

frustrated man too. I am worried. When I see a trend I worry more. Hope I'm wrong, but USC is coming in here Saturday night full of confidence and playing well.

We are looking worse on offense each passing week. We need this win bad to set the record straight that we are LSU.

BS!

Nick is a great coach, but he isn't "the Bear", this isn't the SEC of the 70ies, and LSU is 3-3 vs. Bama since he arrived.

Thats all we all are doing is making assumptions. But facts are facts our offense is below average. We bitch and complain all day on here just to have something to do but on the inside we all know our offense will not lead us to the BCS. We all love LSU and will continue to root for them.

I don't think the truth is negative. I think belowpar and MM make good points. I still love LSU and will continue....just don't want to see any decline.

Do you believe that with the top recruiting classes for years and the talent that LSU has their offense should rank in the cellar of D1 teams?

If we have a top recruiting class and this is the result I hope we never have a bad one.

I understand LSU has very impressive win totals and and defensive stats and many programs would give their left arm to have had the type of success LSU has had......
BUT the fans have a right to be upset. The offensive product miles has put on the feild since Flynn left has been pitiful and seems to be getting worse. U can't tell me teams like a&m and miss st have more offensive talent than us, even ole miss who put up more points against Alabama than we did in 2 games. LSU needs to stop banging it's head against the wall and make a change, not saying miles should go but find a chavis for the offense and let him do his thing
