I honestly really liked the game plan. This game really just boils down to our defense lacking in talent this season.. It's obviously not something we're used to as LSU fans
and the offense put up 3 points in the second half....saban made adjustments.....clm did not...

He took one of the best RBs in the country out of the game for about the last 3 quarters

The Leader is always 100% accountable for the result. There is no dodging that. We have been fortunate to have some of the most talented players in the nation, and we have won a lot of games, but Miles isn't very good at taking a young team with less talent and getting them to play above their capability.

It's the same story year in year out....

1. Dumb, untimely penalties.
2. Weird offensive highs and lows.
3. Extremely poor clock management. Maybe the worst in cfb across his tenure.
4. Lack of awareness during games. (What down is it?, What happened?, etc...)
5. Mismanagement of internal coaching moves, trying to reward staff without considering overall impact to program. Don't get me wrong, there is something to be said for that, but Malloveto and the Stud experiment could have been program killers.
6. Takes silly gambles that have a low percentage of success.

I'm not a Miles hater, but I'm not surprised at our performance last night and I won't be surprised if we don't win another conference championship under Miles. We will have some damn talented teams that Willie T. Ribs could win ten games with, and we will have some teams that Miles will not be able to coach up to where he should.

Bottom line is that these things didn't just start happening. It's the way he rolls the dice, the way he manages his business, and we love him and hate him for it depending on what number pops up. Personally I like to micromanage the details and lead indicators very closely so my result on the back end (not the score, but the product the team puts on the field) is more consistent and focuses on the little details, and Miles certainly isn't very good at that.

Geaux Tigers. Beat the damn Aggies.

crappy job at times picking up blitz and checking down. lack of screens. o line was garbage also at times with just a 3 or 4 man rush.

recruited poorly on defense

once again failed to pay attention to detail see: penalties and costly turnovers

his specialty, the offensive line, continues to get its shite pushed in season after season

carries three assistant coaches that have no business being on the sideline

Nothing. He did the best he could. And we still got crushed. Don't have the talent on D any more, and I don't see any coming in that will improve it. I hope I'm wrong.

no your not wrong, you nailed it. These idiots that think coaching decision would have made a difference in this game are idiots. Just got crushed by superior talent

Personnel decisions are still out of control. Hill spent some valuable time on the sidelines to get Blue and Magee looks. Hilliard should have played more early. It seemed the power running was working.

The answer is Les didn't do anything particularly wrong this game. It's the overall state of the program. Not just being behind Bama like everyone else but also losing to OM and facing another Chicken bowl at best.
