re: Coach O really improved the offense

Did I say you made one? I thought you had confidence in your "new" offense and saw an opportunity to shut you up for the rest of the season.

From all my posts I make on the SEC rant

I do have confidence in the new offense. I also have confidence in Alabama.

Furthermore, I'm not pathetic enough to see this account as valuable or something to bet on. I'm here for fun.

Ban bet that Auburn beats Bama?

Obviously you do or you would take the bet.

Ok? Is betting not fun?

I don't think Auburn beats Bama.

The thread was all about results and you brought up scheme.

So then something has changed? Got it.

Was that too complicated for you to comprehend?

Goodnight princess.

Yeah, they really haven't played anybody with a D since the coaching change. I am looking forward in seeing what that O looks like against bama. That's probably a bad team to judge the LSU O off of, but it's all we have as of now.

I'm kinda surprised by this thread. I'd expect an Auburn fan to prop LSU up as much as possible.

Does the OP realize that this type of thread was already started?

Don't care. Didn't see it or participate in it.

I never claimed you didn't change your scheme.

Actually you claimed

This offense = Last years offense is the point. Nothing has changed.

We're talking about results. I don't care how you get there. You're getting to the same point just in a different way.

As relevant as cherry picking 3 games from last year to compare to the last 3 games of this season is, why not compare 2016 to 2016?
This year's LSU offense couldn't execute against good or bad teams with Miles as HC.

The offense produced (1st downs/points/yards):
18/371/27 vs FCS Jacksonville State
22/392/23 vs Mississippi State - LSU scored 20 points in the first 22 minutes of the game and 3 in the final 38 minutes as State mounted a comeback.

That's an average of 20 first downs, 381.5 yards and 25 points against a below average SEC defense and a freaking FCS team.

Post-Miles LSU has put up:

30/634/42 vs Mizzou
17/459/45 vs USM
20/515/38 vs OM

That's an average of 22 first downs, 536 yards and 42 points.

So, here is the most direct, relevant comparison of results available, since scheme doesn't matter to you. LSU vs bad/fcs defenses post Miles: +2 first downs, +155 yards, +17 points.

If you want to get in the weeds and look at comparisons of big plays or spreading the ball around or run/pass ratio in specific down and distance situations, I'd be happy to. However, your assertion that the results are the same post Miles is patently absurd.

No adjustments after halftime against state.

We were destroying them and les started playing the sportsmanship card with 10 min left in the 3rd

Coach O hasn't improved shite

The offensive style may be similar, but the philosophy has changed definitely. Etling has gone over 200 passing yards more than once this season which happened rarely last year and I am not exactly sure that even happened while miles played him this year.

We aren't conservative anymore when we are leading the game. I can recall a time where less miles was taking a knee with 5 minutes left in the game. Coach O is keeping the petal to the metal all 4 quarters.

So although the style isn't very different, the way we finish games offensively has changed significantly and you can't argue against that.
