All season we’ve been having guys rush the QB and miss the sack because of overrunning the play, or, in this case, forgetting that they have strength in their arms. Really, if I guy as big as Woods is flying into a QB and gets an arm around him, there’s no reason why he shouldn’t be sacked right there. Ugh!

Film session

Someone should make a tape of every option we have run this year with Jefferson or Lee and force Crowton & Miles to watch.

Maybe then they’ll understand what a boon those plays are to our opposition.

And Jefferson made a shitty throw.

Diagnosing the defense

Ole Miss has had several plays well-called to exploit our defensive alignment or coverage. All of their positive plays, and even the incomplete pass to Bolden on the previous possession—good thing Snead overthrew that.

Meanwhile, McCluster is getting smacked around when we do get to him.

by uberschuck on Nov 21, 2009 3:03 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Is Dickson out today?

If so, LaFell’s going to have to keep being that safety valve over the middle

Sorry about that.

I was so excited that we actually moved the ball that my fingers got spastic.

by Purpletiger006 on Nov 21, 2009 3:16 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Even if the safety hadn’t played short, I don’t think he could have picked it off. Seemed like good placement on the pass.

We got bailed out by 2 things there

Either way, D holds!

If the O would hold the ball for more than a couple of minutes, it probably wouldn’t look like this. It’s kind of hard for the defense to be on the field this much. The time of posession is almost doubled-up for the first half.

by stick em' tigers on Nov 21, 2009 4:20 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

loose ends

I didn’t like the onside kick call. Our defense hasn’t shown it can be trusted to stop them on a short field. At that point in the half, we needed to kick deep, stop them and prevent them from getting another possession in the half. We were up 8 at the time. The short field helped them score, and they still got the ball back with over 90 seconds remaining in the half. Why they didn’t throw once baffles me.

After seeing the replay, I change my mind. I think GeauxTigers was right about JJ’s TD pass. It was a tiny bit underthrown; Randle had to slow down to wait for it.

by uberschuck on Nov 21, 2009 4:24 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

I loved it even if it didn't work.

We could have taken all the momentum…

And I’m sorry, the ball was coming out as the knee went down, the call should not have been overturned…

by lawildbull on Nov 21, 2009 4:32 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I was relieved by their decision to run out the half

I think they left a timeout or two on the board, too.

I was against the idea of the kick at first, but I guess I don’t feel particularly strong about it one way or another. On the one hand, it gave the D a short field to work with. On the other, it very well could have given the offense a chance to get a real rhythm going with a comfortable lead.

If you don’t have time to line up your field goal unit, make sure they go for the end zone. They had one second to try for it. There was also the problem of Les waiting far too long to call a time out on third down. Plain and simple, Les blew another game.

There is NO excuse for not having the FG unit ready to line up prior to the 4th down play call, so that if it gets caught, you immediately get them out on the field.

To say nothing of the sheer idiocy of running a spike with 1 second left. That’s impossible.

Similar to Auburn in '07

Watching that game was earily similar to the ending of the Auburn LSU during the “national champion” year in ’07. It was practically the same situation, LSU needed a field goal to beat Auburn and they were in field goal range except there was complete panic and chaos on the LSU side line and LSU got bailed out by a lucky play on a horrible play call. People were calling Miles a genius at that point when in reality it was horrible situational awareness that got bailed out by a lucky play. Not this time.

There was a firefight!!!!

It was pure luck. The coaches had no idea of the time and situation. Its one thing if you are down by 3 and want to win the game, but when you need a field goal and the ball is on the 23 yard line and you have an above average field goal kicker you center the ball and call a time out with a second left and kick the field goal. Ask anybody and they thought LSU got lucky and it was a horrible call that was bailed out by a bad corner back.

A good coach can win 6 or 7 games a year.

There are three critical games for each team each year. Great coaches win those games.

THAT is the difference.

What we got tonight was the exact opposite. A high school coach could have called the last 30 seconds of that game as well or better. Miles supporters got exactly what they deserve, another poor showing of coaching and leadership. And his interview after the game, what a pathetic excuse. SAD. And there is no way to be a “dynasty” with that coaching effort and for others of his past.

What would concern me...

…if I were an LSU fan was not just the way he handled the end of the game so poorly, but the way he couldn’t even articulate what the hell they were trying to do on the field after the game was over. If you knew that you couldn’t get the FG team on the field (inexcusable), and you knew that spiking the ball was not going to work because you only had one second left (inexplicable), then why not at least TRY to get in the end zone? Seriously, my wife could tell that was stupid.

Even before that though, once LaFell made that amazing play to get into FG range, just run the ball three times and kick. What the hell? Reminds me of Mike Dubose trying to run out the clock against Auburn and instead of just handing off we try a lateral pass, which gets fumbled. Auburn recovers and wins the game. Same kind of stupid.

"So I want everybody to think here for a second, how much does this game mean to you? 'Cause if it means something to you, you can't stand still. You understand? You play fast! You play strong! You go out there and dominate the man you're playing against, and you make his ass quit! That's our trademark! That's our M.O.... as a team! That's what people know us as!" - Coach Nick Saban before the 2008 LSU game.

Better coaching could have resulted in a win tonight for LSU—that’s the 3rd time it’s been said. So, i guess you’re ignorant since you can’t tell when someone is agreeing with you! And, my post about coaching tonight is very loosely based. Good coaching doesn’t necessarily bring home the win tonight! It could have…but it wasn’t a given. You guys could have scored more points in the first 3 quarters of the game and controlled your own destiny. No one forced you guys to take it down to the wire….you could have put the game away before 30 seconds left in the 4th quarter. But, you guys are not that good this year, and YES, Les Miles made a huge error at the end of the game! That’s why you guys LOST!!

Intellectual capacity, LOL, so looks like you are a school jockey and need to get out in the real world and apply some of that math. And one thing we seem to agree on, The heavily injured Tigers certainly lack solid play on the field. And the coaching was simply CRAP. And the coaching has been for some times. and you mention underdogs, Vegas had Ole Miss favored. I’d expect a math and football follower to know that. And you can tout all your education and classroom experience, it don’t pay squat. I know, I’m a Technology Management consultant with a World Wide Company solving complex computer and business issues. Get out in the real world as classroom sucess doesn’t always equate to real world sucess. But I do wish you luck, but I’ve fired math and CS majors cause they could remember their passwords or perform simple tasks.

Had Les made more judicious use of his plays and watched the time it took to make those plays, his PLAY CALLING wouldn’t have come back to bite him! As for the Tigers being favored by Vegas, I DID know that; however, I (incorrectly) gave LSU the benefit of the doubt and picked them as the stronger team — as their only losses are to the top teams in the country (Florida and Bama); this being the reason I took Ole Miss to be the underdog (again despite the Vegas odds). Despite sporadic play throughout the year, I truly thought LSU was the better team even with the Vegas odds; therefore, I was smart enough to throw those numbers out the window — because numbers are not the be-all-end-all (you think you’d understand that if you are truly successful in the business world as you say; sometimes the biggest successes come DESPITE what should logically happen). If you think that it’s wrong to believe that Ole Mill was the underdog, then by admission you must admit that you thought your OWN TEAM was the inferior team! Way to go with that team spirit. I know this loss hurt, but get over yourself. Put on your big girl panties and DEAL WITH IT (and without making excuses)!!!!!
