If anyone remembers the Simpsons episode where Homer becomes a boxer it was Miles plan every game. Worked fine until you met someone that “didn’t get tired.”

By the end of the season the offense was so predictable it was ridiculous.

Miles concept of winning is you wear the other team out. You don't wear a Saban team out, they wear you out playing against your tendencies. TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

There is no greater example of why les deserves hate for that game than Saban pulling Hurts for Tua. Les simply didn’t want to hurt JJ’s feelings
Because 2011 Bama D= 2017 UGA D and Jarret Lee = Tua

Sacked 4 times and under pressure all night, Jefferson completed 65% of passes, mostly quick hitters like hot routes, swings, WR screens on 1-9, while Lee was 1/7 TD/INT career and 3/7 2INT in his last outing vs Bama.
Sorry, but inserting Lee vs that OL play would have signaled giving up all hope.

If the OL could've held LOS, I could see trying Mett, but why expose your immobile future QB to a feeding frenzy and bloodbath?
I fault Miles for not having the offense ready for the battle as there's not really much gameplanning around a defense living in your backfield.

Jordan Jefferson doesn’t get enough blame.

If you think LSU loss that game because Lee didn't play, you are smoking rope.

Miles was the coach and he catches the crap. Simple as that.



BS. Miles was the coach. He had a shitty game plan, and he didn't play the right QB.

I was there and felt he deserved every ounce of hate he got for it tbh.



I think you are correct but disagree a little. He should get all the hate, and he should have been fired before he walked out the Superdome for pulling that shite. He put himself before the team.

We ran the same damn offense, zero wrinkles. Saban rolled out a new defense.

I disagree. Last year Saban changed QB at half and came back to win. Les didn’t even try
