defense that won Bama the NC last year!!
FIFY
So it was the defense that was why Bama had the the 15th best offense in the nation averaging over 32 points/game and 403 yds/game?
Wow, I didn't know their defense played the entire game like that.

I was meaning that the next OC shouldn't be some one that has a history of abandoning the run game....like Leach was at TT
Leach never abandoned the running game. Sure he was a pass first guy but that seemed to work out a hell of a lot better in his tenure than Spike Dykes ground and pound style. The results speak for themselves.

When compared to Chryst's system, Leach didn't even know that run plays are legal in college football.
I know that is an exaggeration, but I think you know what I was getting at. I think we need a run first guy (like Chryst) not a pass first guy (like Leach).

Actually Bama had the #22 scoring offense. They had the #42 Total offense in America which is respectable. You're right their scoring defense #2 in America at 11 points a game & their total defense #2 in America 244 ypg had nothing to do with their winning the National Title.

Texas Tech is a lot different than LSU

Thank you for proving my point even further

I'm not sure what your point is? Are you saying we should hire Mike Leach as OC?

Talk about trying to make statistics say what you want....Bama had the #15 offense as for as total points scored and total yardage.
I never said that their defense had nothing to do with them winning the NC. YOu are the one that said that their offense had nothing to do with it. My point is that their offense took them to a NC, just like so many of you on this board seem to think and say that LSU's offense is what has kept them from a NC.

Bama Site
"With 64 more rushing yards from John Clay and 136 more from Montee Ball, Wisconsin, which already has 1,061 yards from James White, would become the first team in FBS history to boast three 1,000-yard running backs in the same season. Yes, three"
"The architects behind this power-packed attack? Offensive coordinator Paul Chryst, offensive line coach Bob Bostad and running backs coach John Settle. And these guys didn't pull off some one-year wonder this season. They've had the Wisconsin offense rolling for multiple seasons now."

LSU's offense is exactly what kept LSU from a shot at a national title this year, last year, 2006.

The point is if a coach like Mike Leach for example can do what he did all those years at a place like Texas Tech, what do you think he could do at an elite program like LSU where you have WR's, RB's, TE's that are 2-3 times the players he had to work with at Texas Tech?

At anyone who thinks Chryst wouldn't be a HOMERUN hire.

while the offense wasn't good, you can hardly blame them alone for either of our loses this year. They year before we were not a NC caliber team. 2006 it was not the offense just we had a bad game at Auburn, Florida was just as good as we were, you team can win every year. If you thinks its a simple as hire a sling it around OC you are kidding yourself.
Bama won the NC with a strong D and a conservative Offense that pounded people.

You mean in 2006, LSU's 4th ranked defense wasn't enough? I bet if they had had Bama's offense of last year they would have gone to the NC game.

He ran a gimmicky offense in a conference that for the most part had bad defenses and usually lost 4 games a year. I don't think they used TE's so what differnce would that make. Mike Leach with the personel LSU has right now is a round hole and a square peg

The guy calling the plays or the one pulling the strings had a bad game. That was the most pathetically called offensive game I've ever seen. LSU had 3 1st Round draft choices at QB & WR and all LSU did was run the ball into 8-9 man fronts the whole game until the last few mins. Tubberville said after the game was over" I'm glad LSU didn't start throwing the football till the end of the game or we would have never won today"

I wouldn't mind getting a guy to implement a Saban-esque offense. In the long term, LA is never short on RB talent and I think Chavis has done a pretty good job in his first couple of years here.

maybe you can help me out since i think we are more on the same page. Why is throwing the ball 55 times a game so innovative and unpredictable?
I think Bama threw 11 passes in the NC game last year.
LSU should run a pro style offense. It doesn't have to be 2-1 run pass ratio, but we have no need to go run and shot either.
