re: The H-Back position...

We also have much better RB depth then Pitt has, better OL, better TEs, well pretty much everything so LSU can run up the middle much more effectively then Pitt could. I mean that has been LSUs bread and butter, so the only thing that will change is that the linebackers will not know exactly what to defend which will make them a step slower, which will give our OL the advantage. They won't be able to just hit the gaps full speed like usual, while pulling their safeties down for the edge. They have to beware of the fakes which in this offense is very very very believable.

We won't be successful on every down but all LSU needs is (1) hole, (1) missed assignment, (1) missed tackle, ect. and we take it to the house or for 50 yards. Against the cupcakes LSU will be driving at will up and down the field. Against the tougher competition we might do that every other drive, or even every 3rd drive is still much more efficient then we've had in the past. I can say this offense will avoid 3 and outs much more then the previous offense and that's exactly what Aranda's defense's are built for. We are going to have a good season OL depth or not.

Another person you forgot to mention now playing that F or Hback position is Stevens, who just switched. I think he plays plenty there this year.
