re: Saban - "LSU is the best defense the Bama offense will face this year" meaning

You're going to be pleasantly surprised how diciplined this team will play next week. Let's just all hope the Refs stay out of this game. It's going to be a good one. Let em play

Hey guy here's the thing about the Wisconsin game and the Auburn game, LES MILES isn't on the sideline any longer. I know this pains you and is hard to fathom but LSU plays much more different then in those 2 loses. I know for a fact if Les Miles was that close to beating both of those team, this team would destroy them. That's how much better they are playing. I just hope your actual team is dumb enough to believe these same thoughts though. Good thing shorty knows better.

I have a question and I'm not trying to be a dick....Was Les such a micromanager/dictator that he wouldn't allow Steve Ensminger to have any input on the offense? Did Ensminger even try to offer various suggestions to Cameron during the game planning each week?

What limited time I've watched LSU play this season, the communication from sideline to the field has appeared smoother, the players "look" more prepared on offense and less confused. I just don't know why those changes didn't happen under Miles?

Reasonable question, I was a little concerned when I saw "not trying to be a dick".

I really couldn't tell you, from what I hear the plays went through Les and if they wanted to change something it took longer. So yes I would say he micro managed to the extreme. I really couldn't tell you what their problem was but it's much more efficient now, takes so much pressure off of the entire offense. Looks to me like they simplified the offense but made less predictable. They run with what works and don't try the things that aren't working. You could tell OM game planned for the behind the line of scrimmage stuff and short passes, so we changed it up and gave them different looks and did it in formations they haven't seen or in formations we had previously run from. I really like what they are doing.

"We've got two weeks to prepare for LSU, so we are going to play them better than any other team in the regular season."

Here's the deal you can tell when I team is playing good football no matter the opponent. You know as well as I do that all these teams bring their all when playing LSU like they do for Bama. The difference was that Bama had a coaching staff that planned for all this and had their team confident when game time came. LSU made plenty of mistakes in that OM game and OM isn't a bad offense, you know this bc they scored tons of points on y'all. OM really only drove twice against us one of their TDs was off of a fumble, no excuse they scored but they surely didn't move the ball up and down the field. We also dropped one easy pick, and had two fumble recovers called back bc they guys knee hit the ground prior. In a game with so many things going OM's way not to mention a few bad PI calls this game could have went a different way. With Les I assure you it would have. Just look at the Jacksonville state game and these 3 games. JVS wasn't a very good team but we still didn't dominate like we have for these 3 games. OM surely thought the same thing coming in, y'all played Mizzou and SM we going to show LSU what kind of coach Ed really is. Well that didn't happen, expect a great game because that's what you're going to get next week.

We know we will get a good game from LSU. That should go without saying....and they eyeball test to me looks like the team is more energized and crisper against Ole Miss.....but Ole Miss was struggling coming in there. Mizzou and USM are crap.

Tell me this and no trolls or flames: I am geniually curious as to what you think Coach O needs to do and can do top beat Bama. Yeah we know you guys have talented players we get it. LSU has had talented players every year. What do you think Orgeron is going to do different next week that Miles couldn't or wouldn't do?

excuses for allowing Ole Miss to rack up the points on bama.

I bet you were saying that lsu was beaten down when arky handed you your asses last year.

He was targeted by Ole Myth, but no flag was thrown. He fumbled and they ran it back 50 yds for a TD.
