i happen to like les miles. you're not going to win every game every year, and you're certainly not going to be in the hunt for the title every year either. expectations for these programs is completely unrealistic.

I happen to like Miles as well, but I call a spade a spade. Today was an unacceptable way to manage the end of the game by any coach, and they were in no way going to have a chance to win that game with no plan for the end of the game. Miles had no clue that they had a chance to win that game, and to just throw time away is inexcusable. But this whole season has been lesson in mismanagement, seen first-hand by me from section 306, row J, seat 12, Tiger Stadium.

i'll be at the game next week, hoping for a different result than the one i've been on hand for the last two years. and, no, the last few seconds yesterday wasn't his finest moments as coach. but i know they can do better, and will.

Verne Lundquist was openly sobbing. Miles seemed like he was drunk after the game. That was as bad a clock management as I have ever seen. They had the game handed to them on a platter twice yet still screwed it up. They deserve the Eat mor chikin bowl after that.

verne lundquist is an ass. he needs to retire. les miles needs to rethink his offensive scheme, i don't like them looking to the sideline for their plays at every down. it takes too much time, and causes too many delay of game calls. not calling time outs asap is another issue.

I have a feeling that LSU Qb's arent exactly on the Peyton Manning level intellegence-wise. Mr Russell is a prime example.

Admittedly, this season has been very frustrating. I did not have national championship expectations at all for this year from the beginning. We are weak from an offensive line standpoint, and wealthy from a skilled person standpoint. They need to figure out how to use the wealth of talent they have, and will have for several more years to come. Geaux Tigers!
