re: Fournette lost the Heisman vs Alabama

It was mainly due to the fact we thought we had a "run-first" O-line and there was a possibility they might create some holes to get Fournette at least 80 yards rushing against Bama...








We were sadly mistaken

No question play-calling and personnel hurt. I won't say Miles called a great game because he didn't. But the entire season prior to that game gave him every reason to think the offensive style LSU had used thus far was an effective one. When Harris didn't have time to look downfield at his leisure and the entire line was collapsing, it's hard to imagine what adjustments Les (or Cam) could have made to turn the game around. Please note that I am not getting involved in the LSU fan civil war over Miles. He has made some baffling choices in his career. But this one is at least understandable on a game level if not on an overall team development level.
