Alabama @ LSU revisited

Finally had the chest to watch the replay of this game. Thoughts:

1. Alabama defense was completely emasculated in this game in a manner that equals the Cam Newton 2010 second half. Only it was a full four quarters of the worst Bama defense in the Saban era.

2. The real cardinal error Miles made in the game was not trusting and staying with what was working. Mett was white hot in this game but in critical 3rd and 4th down situations in the fourth, Miles did not trust what was working and went conservative. The short to intermediate passing game of Mett to Landry or Boone was never stopped. The "Mad Hatter" failed to push the advantage.

3. AJ was terrible in this game. Believe injury and LSU secondary caused his worst performance of the season. Kudos goes to him for hanging in there and pulling out this game.

4. Offensive coaching won Bama this game and was the difference. LSU offense coaching was best of the season for three quarters and just cost LSU this game in the end. It was both there best and worst performance all year.
