This is a 9-10 win team with the right play calling

Despite their youth, the talent on this offense is better than half of the schools in the SEC. We have 2 outstanding receivers with some solid guys behind them, a stable of great RBs, 2 great OTs, and average interior linemen. The difference between the offenses of LSU and Ole Miss, Alabama, UGA, MSU, and TAMU is quarterback play, and the difference is not in the talent of their QBs.

In A&M's first drive this year (on the road in a hostile environment with a QB in his first start), their first 2 plays were a swing pass out to the RB (gain of 7) and a quick WR screen (gain of 11). Yes A&M has a pass heavy offense, but these are 2 of the easiest passes in football and they let Kenny Hill settle into the game. In Alabama's first game this year they were breaking in their first year QB Blake Sims, and the first play was a WR screen that went for 25 yards. Their second play was a quick hitch that went for 6 yards.

LSU set Brandon Harris up to fail with their play calling in this game. 3rd and 7 on the first drive, and we run the ball? You may not need to throw the ball a ton to win games, but you always need to have the threat of a pass. That was a direct sign to Auburn that we do not trust Brandon Harris, and we have no intention to let him make any plays. When we finally threw the ball, it was to a WR on the opposite side of the field running a pretty deep route.

Don't tell me that what we are seeing is a result of attrition to the draft. Attrition to the draft would be a 38-28 loss @ Auburn. We have incompetent play callers and every team in the SEC can and will take advantage of it.

With our offense, Dan Mullen, Gus Malzahn, Hugh Freeze, and Kevin Sumlin would be having a field day.
