likely let Ridley win it in the end the way he won it throughout the game, by punishing the Vols.
That was Gary Crowton's doing, "he saw something" he thought he could exploit. So he changed
the personnel for NO GOOD REASON. Granted I am mostly just parrotting the BR paper here.
But LES MILES did not nearly lose the game, the players did that. You had outstanding rushing
and everything else that could go wrong did. Drops, fumbles, ints, you name it, the players did it.
I forgive them, they have issues.
BUT I prefer to look forward. I have more than enough to deal with in this decidedly Bama and
FLa populated thread. LSU has the highest sack total in the SEC. We are 1st in Rush defense.
We are first in total defense. I think LSU has this one. If not, I am already quite comfortable in
the knowledge that LSU is scary bad in penalties, dumb mistakes and poor QB play. I will survive.

Brad,
Hope I didn't ruffle feathers as that was not my intent. I have watched Les/Gary make bonehead calls or just no calls at all over the last 2 years. Miles has this "What just happened" look on his face all the time. I guess if you make poor/no decision and still win, it's no big deal. But what about the games that have gone the other way? Nobody wins them all and people do make mistakes cause we are all human, but DAMN! As I said in my earlier post, I just hate to see a great football program/players not reach their potential because of coaching.
