Passing to win. Running to lose.

Our RB is better than the QB and the WRs catching. Running the football is LSU's identity so why go air raid? Running is what wins in the SEC by wearing down the defense. Physical run games executed at high levels with the option of using play action is the most difficult offense to stop.

we are blessed to be able to manhandle opposing teams and rush so effectively.

all i ask is that when they do load up and we are so predictable it is causing 3 and outs that we would open it up and get more creative.. via mixing it up such as passing.. like one 1st or 2nd down.. and medium yardage passing..

that's all. i don't care about stats in terms of how many passes attempted or yardage thrown for.. what i care about is seeing our offense flourish and we continue producing touchdowns like i know LSU is capable of every time they touch the ball.. so much talent on O. no reason not to have confidence in our talent and abilities.

I think the problem is, there could come a game or two where LF is stopped. We will have to throw to win. Our D just gave up 24pts to a 5th string QB. We have to develop some kind of passing game in order to survive any shoot out. I though BH threw the ball well Saturday. We , at some point, will need a 270yd passing game.

It isn't about yardage. It's about being able to show balance whenever the run game is finally stifled.

I'm pleased with our offense so far. We are a run first team and having been running the ball at will so can't see why anyone has an issue with our offense. As long as we are winning games and putting together good drives and aren't going three and out every series, I'm happy. I'll take 400-500 yards of offense all day, I don't care how we get it as long as we get it.

Would I like to see us air it out some against weaker opponents? Sure, but just to work on that area of our game as it needs the most work and we are going to need to be able to throw the ball later on down the road.

I think LSU under the leadership of Miles, Cameron and Steele are right where they need to be. The programs grows stronger with greater potential each week.

Its not just about running or passing. Its about being balanced. Harris has a gun but LM doesnt let him use it. LF7 is a beast and when he has almost 200 yds in the first half, then that should REALLY open up the play action. Being one dimensional will only get you so far. What happens when LSU runs into the team that stacks the box and all the sudden LF is held to less than 100yds? Every team out there pretty much realizes LSU is not a passing threat.

I think the fear regarding the lack of balance is that if a team like Alabama with a vicious front 7 is able to contain our running game we will need to be able to pass. In years past our passing game was much better by the time November rolled around so I am not worried just yet. We have seen improvement week by week. Florida will tell us a lot about our offense imo...

imo, the answer is common sense. running teams win championships. BUT, they need a passing game to convert 3rd and longs to keep the drives going (other reasons too).

there is a segment of posters on here that obviously think PASSING YARDS is the most important stat there is even tho there is obvious proof available to counter that argument. these folks will not quit their whining until LSU adopts a pass happy, multiple receiver game that minimizes the run game. many teams do this and look really good. Baylor gave up over 50 points this wk-end and still won their game. this segment would have loved that kind of game.

why does this segment value passing yardage so much? my theory is that they grew up with video football and that's what they call exciting. kinda like winning baseball teams need excellent pitching some fans want teams that knock a lot of taters and score lots of runs.

theory over; it is a FACT that being able to run the ball and control the clock are instrumental in winning championships.

I love waiting to see LF break one on any play he is in on. Passing is great and flashy, but the way LF is rolling, I wouldn't change it for the world.
