Weird game week.
Obviously, the coaching change at LSU can be viewed both as a positive and a negative. Everyone close to the their program new that Miles had a pretty short leash, so Coach O was probably told to prepare for this scenario. Whereas many interim coaches would spaz, he already has head coaching experience and is likely not caught off guard being the new head coach.
On the other side, you have HCBO. His coaching debut in WV was not stellar. I would argue that he didn't coach a very good game against Georgia (he admitted as much). The circumstances in Baton Rouge are not ideal for a young, inexperienced coach still feeling his way.
Finally, the LSU offense. Who knows what to expect? If I were an interim and the fan base was calling for creativity on offense, I would open up the playbook. You would see a triple reverse, flea flicker onside kick every other play. In between that, I would ride Fournette (sp?) like a mule, unless he's hurt.
So many unknowns.
