When LSU has the ball
Khan Jr.: Keep feeding Fournette until you have to throw the ball. Forget about any criticisms about being conservative in the second half against Mississippi State. LSU won the game, bottom line. Auburn isn't lighting up the scoreboard right now, so there is no sense in going away from a strength until Auburn proves it can stop it or LSU falls behind.
this last part is important. LSUs system only works when LSU has a lead, but it has become quite common for that lead to slowly evaporate. Then when LSU has fallen behind, they decide to (predictably) start passing the ball.
Whats the point? this years LSU team cannot simply rely on doing just enough to get by. the offense must keep defenses honest by being more balanced the entire four quarters, not just building a lead early and then relying on amazing defensive play. they simply do not have the numbers on defense like in years past.
LSUs running game is so powerful that the offense can afford incomplete pass on 1st down, still get 4-6 yards on a run play on 2nd down, thus keeping harris in 3rd and manageable situations.

But why not just run on first down? LSU averaged over 5 yards per 1st down rush.
So, on average you are setting up for a 2nd and 5 (without first down penalties).
If those stats Continue there is very little reason to throw on first down frequently. I'm not saying to never do it.

LSU should fire Les Miles for having a second job.

LSU passed 3 conseq downs for 1/3 and 4 yds after the 3rd qtr fmask penalty 1st down The run ypa was about a yard better than pass and burned clock.
Runs on that drive alone may have negated the time for the drive of MSU missed fg attempt.
Keep with your strenths until the weakness improves, imo.

We were a missed FG away from a loss.
