Stop blaming the coaching staff...

I want to believe that, but that just sounds like a crock of shite.

Head coach is responsible for the product on the field.

Really ? Same game plan since 2007 no doubt the lines O. And. D were bad but so was the game plan

The buck always stops with the coach. Whether it's gameplan, execution, talent, or motivation. That's the coaches job.

You are incorrect. LSU could have made huge plays down the field by using BH mobility. Bama was stacking box and daring us to throw deep. We had some success doing it but we didn't do it near enough. BH looked like the stage was to big again at times and I suspect that had something to do with the calls. But it was clear to me that we didn't prepare for a contingency plan in case we couldn't run. We just lined up most times and ran straight into box on first down. Also...we NEVER alter our game plan when things clearly aren't working. Remember Arkansas last year and there are other examples. Les is a great coach but he is far to stubborn at times. He is going to do what he does instead of taking advantage of the other teams weakness.

Disagree.. LSU defensive front did not play terrible, until they got tired in the second half. Let's not forget it was 10-13 at the half

Things went down hill when the offense could not give the defense a breather during the second half

I would have liked to have seen LSU loosen up the bama front seven by attempting the following:

1. hitting the TE over the middle of the field
2. WR screens
3. more zone read w/harris
4. Passes to RB out of the backfield

Although, it's easy to make suggestions the Monday after the game.

If we really had a shitty coaching staff as a whole, we would have lost before Sat night.

To who, Auburn?

We had vastly superior athletes in every game but this one. In games where the talent of your opponent is equal or greater than your own, you can't rely on power.

That's when you start running plays that create mismatches. You know, offensive coordinators in the NFL make a living off of it.

ETA: And I'm not saying our coaching staff is "shitty". There's a difference between a good coaching staff and a championship-caliber coaching staff.

I blame everything on the coaching staff, even Coach Moffit. It is incumbent on this coaching staff to identify their strengths and weaknesses and scheme to those factors. It is incumbent on Coach Moffit to get all his players strong and fast. Heck, he knows what it takes!! But a Moffit disciple out coaches him (from a strength and conditioning stand point). If I hear Scott Cochran (a Lil Jon wannabe) in that stadium one more time I will scream. I felt like I was at a rap concert b/t him and the constant rap injections b/t plays in BD Stadium.

Cam Cameron has got to go and this time don't hire a coach who was fired from his previous job; generally a bad indicator. Peveto has got to go for obvious reasons; he has proven that he is more of liability than an asset.

Lastly, every recruit this year should be DLine, OLine, and LBs period.

There was no method of game planning or preparation that could have offset what occurred on both lines of scrimmage against Bama. It's that simple.

You know bama lost to ole miss right?????

The reason I can blame the coaches is that a true sophomore QB with no touch is our best option.

That wasn't the problem against Alabama. Our best option was Fournette, who we built our offense around. On the contrary, BH kept us in the game the first half when nothing on offense worked, and, by the way, showed nice touch when he wasn't being chased and hit in the face.
