It's not that we're not Talented.

It's that we just get pushed around out there. All game long. There is NEVER a time where an Auburn or a Mississippi State team should ever out physical us. That's the most embarrassing thing to me about all this. We've ALWAYS prided ourselves on being the the most physical team on the field since the Saban era. And this year we are timid and frankly scared looking out there.
Yeah we are young. But just because we're young doesn't mean that we should get pushed around and punched in the mouth an not punching back. This is still football this is still a physical game and we aren't that right now. Too much arm tackling and not enough people looking to hurt the ballcarrier.

Give these young guys another year in the program.

You do realize the difference between a 20/21 year old and a 18/19 year old right?

i agree with most of what you said, but part of the problem ive seen across the board is players try to tackle with their shoulder instead of wrapping the ball carrier up with both arms when they make contact. You may knock someone over but you cant tackle with just your shoulder. Hit hard yes, but dont let them get extra yardage because you didnt wrap up.

J Adams and Kwon will hit, that's about the only two.

Indecisive young players aren't as experienced. Raw talent doesn't make up for hours in the weight room. Not only that, but when your QB play is so bad(and let's not pretend it's not awful) it makes the blocking that much more painful. An extra second or two pass blocking every play takes its toll. LSU's offensive line is never going to be bailed out by the QB. That's a problem.

There's good years and bad years. We'll be better next season after our guys gain more experience/weight/muscle.

Our current talent on the roster is overrated, defense especially.
