Outside of Ole Miss NO ONE is beating Alabama on a regular basis... 5 in a row is bad but it's not like we lost 5 straight to some shite team.

I wouldn't either, the key is to try and execute a wide variety of plays in practice so they are not limited to a set of predictable plays.

Marcus Randall said after the game that it was run at the end of every practice and had never worked a single time before.

So if Les like to run the ball, 70% of the time in practice. And that is what Cam says. Then 30% of the time is devoted to the passing game. About the same ratio as what happens in the game. So if Les is watching the passing game fail because of lack of execution. Who is to blame? The idiot who only devotes less than one third of the time making the passing game viable. You Les guys just don't get it. Les hates the passing game. He is a Michigan man. Bo is his idle. Cam is a Michigan man and Bo is his idle. We are stuck in the football past. Groundhog day over and over. We wake up to the same playbook that will not change.

Omg, you can't run it in practice, so you want to try it in the game ?!!!

Let me know how your coaching gig works out
I think it is more about what Les thinks is "quality execution" in practice and the likelihood he narrows the list of plays down beyond that. But the OP's quote doesn't really say that.

Of course practicing with a QB who can't execute a simple pass will cut down on your list of plays. We also seem to have some favorite plays of Les that only seem to work well in practice.

What is les's interpretation of execution? 90% 85%

If the defense is giving you something and you have plays to attack it, however, you won't try because your execution rate is 60%, How is that the right decision?

I enjoy people bitching about Les not trying anything new... when he does it a great deal of the time with his trick plays. Then when he tries to run a new formation/play and it fails we read, "WE HAVE LF WHY ARE WE TRYING TO GET FANCY!!!!!!"

Plays that aren't being executed well in practice aren't going to work in game. That's generally a good philosophy, games will be harder to execute in than practice is.


But you're not considering that the opponents defense may be different than what we expected and practiced against that week. The OC may see something different in the actual game and want to run a play that might work, but yet it failed in practice.

Remember, games are fluid and analysis and decisions and adjustments have to be made in real-time.

The oc only gets to call the plays les has approved based on execution in practice.

So you think a poorly executed play would be successful, lol. Sounds like Madden mentality, "Just call the right play vs D alignment", execution is built into the program.

There's a saying with some variations among coaches- "Practice is for practice and games are for winning.

No Grandpa, it is well known that Les has not been too good at making adjusements and attacking a weakness. He better do something different this year. There should be no reason at all this team can't compete for the SEC championship. I don't want to hear one damn excuse.

Our 1st team offense practices against the scout team defense. If we are playing a game that matters, the defense we are playing against will be better than the scout team. If we can't execute against the scout team, we definitely won't against a real defense, regardless of what schemes they are running

If we had decent QB coaching and development, then executing in practice shouldn't be a problem. That's the crux of the issue.

I call bull shite. jimbo left to be HEAD COACH IN WAITING and FSU paid him big bucks.

Fisher took a pay cut to go to Florida State and a head coach in waiting promise is a vague thing that does not always pan out.

He wanted to take another step to becoming a HC but he also wanted to get away from les.

There was an excuse. Shitty coaching.
LSU has addressed that. If they don't show improvement in the next few years with the coaches they now have in place, a new head coach will be hired.

Why would we want to run plays in a game that we know we can't successfully run?

Well, pardon us for dying of thirst and calling out the empty glass as part of the problem.

I love the proof of this statement that so many seem to believe. He left to become a HC it would eventually happen and FSU gave him an opportunity. Conspiracy theorist believes it was about Les when in reality it was about him wanting to move up.
