the rb rotation hasn't made any sense this season at all

I would like to see Fournette getting more carries.

I can't for the life of me figure out our fricking rb rotation. 3rd and short? Ok send out Darrell Williams for a toss dive. Wtf? RBBC is one thing, but there's no rhyme or reason to ours
Bilj it's like they pull a number out of a hat every play

There is no ryme or reason to our whole entire offense, and it's been that way for a while. It's like there isn't any real game planing for matches or fakes or getting a defense thinking one thing then doing the opposite. It's nuts!!! I'm freakn tired of it too. It's time for a change what ever that might be??? Sorry but I'm tired of Les Miles and his inability to create something from nothing.

Why did we start our 4th best running back? And while we're at it, if fFournette would stay in the game for more than just three plays at a time, maybe the defense wouldn't be able to key on him so much.


It starts with the top goofball

We start the season against Wisconsin and it looks like they were finding every way in the book to get afournette the ball. The more we play, the less they seem to get afournette involved in the offense. IT MAKES NO SENSE. The kid leads the team in rushing numbers.

It makes no sense. Once again, he did not get into the game until the FOURTH SERIES against Auburn. Inexcusable.

Honestly I think so far Williams has been more impressive in more limited carries than LF. I mean LF definitely has the ability to be amazing and far more talented but sometimes he seems timid when he runs to me.

Williams has done absolutely nothing but run straight into the pile and break some tackles. He has been gifted 2 goal line TDs. Same as Hilliard.

I honestly don't see what you guys have seen. He had one run where he bounced off the tackle and scored. All the rest has been just get a tough 2, 3, or 4 yards. I don't understand what is so impressive with banging your head against the wall for 1-3 yards after contact.

Fournette is #72 in the country in plays over 20 yards. He is the leading freshman rusher in the SEC and is averaging over 5 yards a carry behind a shite tastical line and passing game.

A good number of LSU fans masturbate to that, see the reverence for Hester.

Fournette has gotten plenty of touches; if anyone says they're not disappointed in his production so far, they're lying.

I don't even care. The RB rotation was the least of the problems. Barry Sanders wouldn't have made a difference.

Re look at the team stats.

Fournette
Hilliard
Williams


That is the correct order.

Which back starts is totally irrelevant. It is situational. Probably Saturday they wanted the experienced senior in the game to start to offer senior support to Brandon Harris stating his first game an don the road.

They have been way behind in three games which has created the n need for more passing than they would like in the second half.

If they can avoid such huge deficits going forward look for Fournette to carry 15 to 20 times with a couple of passes to him out of the backfield. Once Harris settles down into his role we should see a better flow. He wont face the hostile environment that he had against Auburn.

it should be


fournette
fournette
fournette

and use the other guys to spell every now and then. We are TERRIBLE offensively, and only one guy has shown any sort of ability to be a homerun threat. Play that guy all day please.

I don't disagree. Fournette = workhorse. Run his arse.

it's hard for anyone to get touches when you convert ZERO 3rd downs
