BCS Champion vs. Bama
or
2013 CWS?
Two great regular seasons wasted by lack of adjustments by coaches.

Only the 100th time this has been asked since yesterday

Stop comparing these two incidents.

All of the above plus the fact that you don't know what adjustments the coaches attempted to make in either case.

The Rant.
Chicken should do a better job of recognizing when this place should be imploded and start over from scratch.

Please do list what "adjustments" should have been made....and please link the evidence that said "adjustments" were not made or discussed or attempted.
The word "adjustment" is the idiot fan's word he uses when he feels something should be different, but is at a loss to explain what it is.

I think we can safely say that Les never attempted to pull JJ out of the BCS game for another QB.
If he did, there are more problems on the LSU sideline than anyone imagined...

Why? They seem to be very comparable situations. Great regular seasons marred by heartbreaking postseason losses. Both losses were to teams with equal, but not superior talent.
Both losses had questionable coaching decisions that could have changed the outcome of the game.
I think it is a valid point and to attack anyone for bringing it up shows your delusion.

We couldn't hit the fcking ball when it mattered most. That can't be fixed by coaching strategy.

Can we throw in the 2006 final four as well?

We've all heard about the lack of bunting, and while that is debatable, PM could have just as easily decided hed let the kids swing because they were long due and he believed they would deliver.
I get that argument. it goes both ways.
Whats tougher to explain is why we didnt challenge their backup catcher not even 1 time.
A catcher who was 2-16 against stolen bases... and we had tons of base runners, including Laird (speed) on 1st late in the game.
Missed opportunity there.

some of you really crack me up. Yes it was our stupid, stuborn coaches and not say great play by the other team and or lack of execution by our own players. Which is not to say the coaches couldn't have made different decisions that may have made a difference, especially the BCS CG, but everything looks crystal clear with 20/20 hindsight.
I'm sure if Manaeri had it to do over again, he probably would not have called for those errors or pop outs. I know he should have bunted with a guy that didn't bunt all year rather than have him hit it right at the 3rd baseman.

Bunting and stealing bases are ways to get runners in scoring position. You still have to drive them in. We had plenty of RISP, especially yesterday but we couldn't get them home. Please help me understand how bunting more or stealing more bases would help convert those base runners into runs.

Did we not hit in to another double play late in teh game? (yes) Plus it puts pressure on the pitcher and catcher. A pass ball or overthrow and we're on third. We had bases loaded twice. Maybe if we had stolen a base early on in that rally another run would have crossed.
2-16 is a HUGE weakness, and if PM takes any blame in yesterdays game, thats it right there. not being aggressive and applying pressure in the running game to exploit their weakness to create opportunities.

well, it would be a good strategy if someone other than rhymes were at the plate with RISP.

BCS - no offensive adjustments...all JJ...all running up the middle...let's go down with JL throwing 8 pick 6's trying to win the game.
CWS - Katz got a hold of a line drive for a HR...did not mean that anyone else could hit a homerun...too many swings for the fences...not enough advancing runners (doesn't have to be small ball all the time but mix some in)
