Maybe Les and the staff will give their high priced paychecks to Urban for the coaching lesson. This game will also hurt in attracting young players. I can't believe we do not have any other backs that can run. Who would want to play for a staff like this. Where was Charles Scott today? Did he even play? I have never been a fan of Miles and think he was overpaid when they got him.
We lost both games to top 5 teams on the road. We shot ourselves in the foot the entire game long. Salvage the season and stop whining.
Which maked it all the worse, we have now lost 2 games that we should have won. It's one thing if you play a more talented team and lose but to have more talent and play like crap is inexcusable.
I know the two INTs killed it, but why can't Less figure out when to use a TO. After Russell takes yet another sack late in the game, Les takes the first TO of the second half leaving us with two. Hello, we score a TD then we don't have to onside kick cause we have three TOs left. He did that in the AU game as well. I can't believe a college coach is this stupid.
I really believe we are in for another cycle of seasons like with the Archer, Curley and Gerry years. They do decent for the first couple of years and then the program starts its decline. Look for the top players to start avoiding LSU again.
We can Biittch all we want, but Bertman gave this moron a contract extension after his first year playing with Sabans recruits. We will never buy out his contract in the next 2 years, so get ready for 9-3...8-4 type years until he has depleted all of our talent, then we can officially start the bring back the "Magic" talent search for the next coming of Saban. You have never seen me claim to have insider info, but I do know some people closely associated with this program, and the consensus is "Someone" is in WAY over their head. Now fire away, I have no interest in responding.
What I see missing is in Miles is that competitive fire that drives high performers in every profession to be the best every time they engage. I see it in business all the time. High achievement profile types beat out higher IQ and more talented people routinely because they won't settle for coming in second. I don't know if Saban was/is a great coaching mind, but he certainly had the drive to be the best. He demanded it of his players. That's why you saw him chewing out some 3rd stringer during mop up time if they didn't execute. Miles needs to create the expectation that excellence is the norm. I thought I saw some encouraging signs when he pulled Flynn after throwing the INT against Moo U to send him a message, but I just don't think he's got it.
I don't care, I'd like to stay optimistic about our chances to be a better team but I think we shouldn't be in the top 10 any longer, we aren't that good a team or on that calibur anymore. We should probably be between number 15 and 20 in the country. What I'm trying to say is that we are no longer as good as we once were and I believe we were overrated this year and I'm sure Florida is also overrated but will change my opinion if they win out!
