I’m not sure how you think that contradicts my point. Had LSU’s defense and special teams played at that better level consistently, their ceiling this year would have been an SEC championship and a CFP berth WITH the offense they had.

Stetson Bennett passed for 116 yards and an INT on 6.1 yards/attempt in a 16-6 win over Kentucky. He did pass for 300 yards against Missouri but only completed 56% of his passes for 7.3 yards/attempt and no TDs while leading Georgia to only 26 points. He had only 140 yards passing against GA Tech. They scored 37 but 20 of those points came from short fields created by defense and special teams. The Missouri game was part of a 3-game stretch in which Bennett had 0 passing TDs and one of 4 games total in which he had none. He only completed 50% of his passes with 2 interceptions against Florida. His inconsistency didn’t stop Georgia from winning the title.

You’re trying to paint it like the defense and special teams were the only reasons LSU didn’t win the SEC this year, which is absurd. They held FSU to 24 points. Two wins this year the offense scored 21 and 13 points.

Bennett’s “inconsistent” was a hell of a lot more productive than Daniels’. He threw for 1,500 more and 10 more TDs.

If Daniels can do that LSU will be in a good spot. If he’s still sub-3k and 20 LSU will be in right about where they were this year.
