re: A play you wish LSU had run more

For having Jamarcus Russell as QB, and a load of NFL draft pick WRs. You could count with two hands how many deep balls were tossed the whole of the 2006 season, especially some games like Auburn and Fla, where the box was loaded for a team that had shown a mediocre running game. It often didn't make sense. At other times, it was downright shocking. It was like looking at a showroom of Lambos and Ferraris that rarely if ever see the road.
And despite the change of coaching staff, especially when retaining of the former staff's OC, why Skyler and Trindon weren't tossed some more bubble screens is confusing. They had the same, if not superior cutting abilities and open field moves as Reed, of whom had excellent world-class Irvin-esque push-off and helmet-lean skills..an art-form for those that master it's subtlety. I realize the Ro-to-Reed Bubble was more a necessity than latter era superior balance and depth LSU, but still.
