My thoughts on Auburn
Posted on 9/15/15 at 4:45 am

Auburns offensive line looked very very weak last week against Jacksonville state. Jeremy Johnson won't make as many mistakes as he did last week, but with the pressure on him all game, let's hope he makes a couple. I would be willing to bet big that if he throws one interception, LSU wins. Our defense is too stout to give up any opportunities. We go from facing possibly the best QB in the SEC to possibly one of the worst QBs in the SEC.
The game plan we used for Miss St is perfect for this game. Run the ball at their weak defense. Let Auburn make mistakes. Dak played a perfect game against us and still lost at home. Don't go away from what's working to show that Harris can go for 250 yards. Let's leave that trick in the bag for Bama and Ole Miss.

I'll take an ugly SEC win any day.

Auburn had 4 starters on D out for that Jax St. game. If the main 2 of the injured guys can't go, Carl Lawson and Tray Matthews, it is gonna get ugly for my Tigers. If Les would let Brandon Harris run the read option LSU could probably run for about 400 yards on Auburn's defense.

JJ will throw 2 INTs to LSU DBs. They don't have the same rushing attack, if it's the OL or backs not sure but they aren't executing it like last two years. LSU understands what to do against Muschamp's Ds and this is probably his least talented LSU has faced.

My thoughts are ...
They have lots of talent (more than miss at)
They have good coaching
They are embarrassed after last week
They were overlooking Jacksonville St.
We will play vs a challenged football team.
It's a rivalry game.
I don't know why our fans are so quick to chalk this game up as an easy win.

way too early to think we've arrived or auburn is bad.
you've nailed coach miles game plan, though.

After watching most of the Auburn game Saturday, I'd say running the read option play a few times(about 20) might lead to some success.

The other play JSU killed Auburn with (besides the read option) is the quick slant, which I have seen us throw since 2013.

Auburn is a talented team. They know that they haven't performed up to pre-season hype. They have athletes and good coaches. Muschamp is too good to not be working night and day on solving the read option problem.
Saturday will not be a walk in the park for LSU. I think LSU wins another close one which will certainly get the idiot chorus squaking again.

OP... Agree with most. Except we have 8 of last 10 years with similar pattern so we know there will be no "opening up" against anyone UNLESS... like last year vs Miss State, we are 3 TD's behind. I think we really do have one of the top 10 groups of receivers in the country. And I was not high on Harris until I saw the change in him in the game and in the way the passes were finding the receivers. His charge is to "Not Lose The Game". Everything we see, while incredibly frustrating to watch, is about not losing. The team that came out in the first quarter was not allowed to play for most of the second half. We will have all close games this year. And frankly a 11am kickoff in Syracuse the week after two SEC tilts is trap game city. Syracuse playing a premier SEC team at home where a win can make their season and frankly help them recruit bigger/faster/better. I think we eak out victory against Auburn, but it's plain to see the SEC west isn't what we thought it was. It's Syracuse that I think we trip up on... ala Jacksonville State and Toledo... And Syracuse is much better than both of those AND playing us at home.

I disagree for these reasons:
1) auburn's hurry up will wear our our defense in the second half
2) despite their slow start auburn is a better football team than msu, sans the qb position
3) historically, auburn seems to gel by the time our game arrives, esp at the qb position. in the second half, if our D again tires, the auburn qb will get his mo back. I've seen this many times
4) our punting sucks. it is not good enough to play field position football and is likely to cost us a score in this game.
i'm not advocating an air assault but I am advocating making first downs and keeping our D off the field as much as possible. muschamp's a good coach and you can bet he'll defend against the run first. we need to go ahead and let harris throw the ball.

Auburn is gonna come out on fire. The best way to come back from almost losing to a nobody team is to win a conference game win. Against LSU nonetheless. I think LSU will win it but not by much. Another nail biter. 28-24

Les will keep the game close and give AU a chance to win late. It's just how Les does it.

JJ can come alive and that makes me nervous, but I think crowd noise can play a big role in this game. The crowd needs to disrupt their tempo and any rhythm he may find.
Posted on 9/15/15 at 10:55 am to tigerclaw10
I just hope that it doesn't click for JJ until week 4. They still have good receivers.

Louisville ran for 258 against them in the opener. I think Buga and our OL will skull drag them

disagree. I think he will make more.

Oh man, Death Valley!
It's gonna be loud. Can't wait to rattle this QB.

Can we get the guys who heckled Bo Wallace last year back for this game. Johnson might be even more of a headcase
