Frank Wilson might have given a little insight on 2014 offense...

At about the 2:00 mark, Wilson hints that LSU will be in more spread formations. Zack was more of a pro style QB. Last year, they worked with Jennings on the things he does best. There won't be any new formations. It's just that we will see a lot of stuff that they practiced last year but didn't do in the games.

I really like the idea of spreading the field out more. It will open up more running lanes for the RBs. The biggest issue is preparing the young WRs. If the #3 and #4 WRs don't develop, we will likely see a lot more two-TEs.

Hidden Playbook!


Really though, good to see this. Not to :beatdeadhorse: but Crowton made the players adapt to the system and it hurt us. Cam's flexibility of adapting to personnel is going to pay big dividends.

I really like this look for LSU this upcoming season. It gives them a lot of versatility to run/pass and to make things easier for the new QB. I think we have the athletes to effectively run this formation and have multiple threats on the field. I also expect to see a lot more 2 back sets in the shotgun to use misdirection to our advantage.

Yeah, saw on Nola article where Miles was talking about getting Smith and true fresh Washington in on plays this year. Seems like Cam is taking aspects of the NFL and college game and forming something big. 2015 and 2016 will be a fun arse ride.

Most should already know this. When Rivers announced he was going to transfer he said it was because LSU was going to a more spread type offense.

pro style QBs can run spread offenses just fine. Drew Brees is a master of it.

You don't need a mobile QB to run the spread either.

A slinger works just fine

TMaGee would flourish in a spread offense.
