We may be Superman in terms of running into stacked fronts...but BAMA has amassed all the Kryptonite. I think it might be time to try a different approach...not a different coach, but a different approach.
Herein lies the problem... Catch-22... whatever you want to call it. If we attempt to make an adjustment to resemble the type of team that gives Alabama trouble, like Ole Miss, for argument's sake, we become more susceptible to our other conference foes.
The problem I'm seeing is that Alabama is built with the same punching the other team in the mouth mentality that we are, they just have manpower in the trenches to do it better than literally everyone else.
TL;DR version: We don't need to adjust what we're doing IF Grimes, Orgeron, and Steele can start to out-recruit Alabama.

When a team has their linebackers and a safety playing the run on every down, because that's what we do on every down then play action will work. But you have to be creative and throw where thiose guys are not. Unfortunately creativity is not Les Miles strong point, to say the least. Even the fake field goal that beat Florida, our only score of the second half duh, was designed and actually called by two players not the coaching staff. They could probably design a better offense than Cam Cameron

So...we can either continue to try this exact style and see if it can work (keep in mind this time we brought the best running back of a generation running behind a VERY good OL to their yard and it was a nightmare) or we can decide that we need to tweak some things and make priority one beating BAMA to better ensure ourselves a spot in Atlanta.
Your posts all make good points. The highlighted portion is dead on. I just don't think the staff or anyone ever imagined Bama would dominate our line the way they did. Sure, everyone knew all about Bama's front 7 and that it was going to be tough, but total domination was NEVER expected. (and let's not forget, the game was just 3 points at the half) Now that such an unexpected nightmare happened, I truly hope this will finally be the wake up call and the staff figures out they need to game plan a way around the Bama front 7, and not just keep trying to run through them as that didn't work with the best running back in a generation behind what was looking like the best Oline we've had in years.

Miles is the least creative coach in all of CFB and it isn't close.
This mentality has cost us at least 5-6 big games if not more, resulted in waaaaay too many close games against lesser opponents, and our 3rd national championship in the modern era.
Its his PHILOSOPHY on how to approach football and he's not changing.

If Miles is the least creative coach who is the most creative?
Chip Kelly?
Art Briles?
Gary Patterson?
Kliff Kingsbury?
Rich Rod?
Hugh the Saban killer Freeze?
How many championships have they won?
How have these guys' philosophies on football panned out?

Being a Colts fan he was my favorite. An arm unseen before in the NFL. Great Colt memories with the Rifle slinging it.
Here, here! Only career-ending injuries prevented Bert from being in the NFL HoF. He was so talented that he got a Heisman invite, even though he QB'd for a team which passed about a dozen times per game. Remember the game on MNF where Bert suffered a dislocated shoulder, had the trainer pop it back in place, and went in and led a 4th quarter comeback to win the game? One of the All-time great Tiger and SEC competitors.

Your post was a flashback of 1/9/12. I remember reading the same exact shite the next day on here.
That was 4 years ago. Miles hasn't changed and didn't learn a lick from that. He never will. Until he turns the offense completely over to an OC, get used to it.

Check out the records of the coaches that Broadhead hired (particularly that guy he found to coach the baseball team), then get back to me.

So your solution is to pass more.
When you average less than a yd per carry, hell yea it is. At least you can go home at the end of the night and say you tried everything

You think the only way to be creative is to throw 60 times a game?
