You want to talk about safety issues? Forget the no-huddle, LSU coach Les Miles says. Let's talk about holding.

"If I had the magic wand on changing rules, I would call holding much more effectively," Miles said on Wednesday's SEC coaches teleconference. "I think those guys that are pursuing the defense have to have their hands inside. ...
