Then they need to learn how to lineup and run their routes.

I agree, Drake is to talented to be on the bench, playing time against good corner backs will only make him better.

Absofrickinglutely!!! And since the coaches love Gauge so much make him the special teams hero, the gunner, return kicks etc.... But he has got to be taken out of the WR rotation is just isn't fooling anyone!!!

Yes good thing you can count. It's a matter of which ones know which receiver spots with the responsibility of be being lined up in that spot along with know the route tree namely on option routes. And when you Trout out in four wide on a constant basis you have to rotate them so now just name four more decent back ups

Canada can stop with the cute shite and run normal formations these guys might learn something

Running JV level slants, posts, and fly routes with Davis and Sullivan is 10x better than any other offense we have.
Results speak for themselves, and both guys have already been much more effecting with their PT than Gage and Dillon

Exactly. People overthink this sht way too much. It's great that Gage and Dillon know more routes than the other guys, but where has that gotten this offense? With DE panicking half the snaps it would be great if those where the safety valves more on more plays than the others. Hell they were worried about Drake and the other bigs dropping passes, but every receiver has dropped 1 or 2.
People act like the WR position is the hardest to learn. Tell them the routes if you have to and send them on their way. Even Anderson, McMath(who I believe is going to be a star), Stevenson, and Neatherly. That's 4 without even mentioning Gage. Good coaches figure it out. They know how to get the best playmakers the ball.

Remember all the idiots that actually thought Gage was good enough to be a starter, over Drake Davis no less?
Davis is a raw product. He's played football maybe 4 years. Probably has played more basketball and soccer than football in his life. But, he has elite physical talent that should be on the field. Give him simple routes and hell even if he only catches bombs, that's a winner. I have no idea why Anderson still hasn't played. He should be no less than one of the starters. His highlight tape still reminds me of a future #1 star WR.
Davis, Chark, Dillon, and Anderson should be the starting four with Sullivan, Netherly, and Gage rotating in. Brennan should be in shotgun running an uptempo passing attack throwing it 30-35 times per game. LSU needs to get aggressive.
No way in hell this OL will allow methodical ground and pound. No way this defense will stop most teams from racking up 20+ a game. If a team with inferior talent like Syracuse (Dungey's decent as a QB, but come on), can put up 24 points and 384 yards (over 300 being pass yards), on LSU, @ LSU, what can Auburn, Bama, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Ole Miss do?
Brennan needs the Troy game to prepare for UF and Auburn I still don't think people realize how bad Etling is going to look once the real deal kicks in this season. With an average at best run game right now, we need somebody slinging the rock all over the yard. I would also like to see CEH tote the rock and get a chance in the passing game as well.

Seems to me the oc needs to find what works. He's getting paid too much for what we've seen so far.
The whole argument for Canada was he was going to utilize the talent. So far he's not doing a great job at that. And we've seen a few ocs do just fine in their first seasons, so I don't buy he doesn't have the players.

Canada was heralded as he can adapt to offensive personal and offenses around the QB. We've seen very little of that. What a fraud

All of that

First off, let me say I agree 100%; however, when they go 4 wide with Moreau and Gage, that's done so the defense doesn't sub in more DBs. LSU can show different looks with that personnel group. I'm starting to think they don't go traditional 4 wide in the shotgun because the oline can't block when the defense knows a pass is coming. That's on Canada to start putting some draws and screens on tape.
As good as Davis has looked in his spots, I think he still struggles with the mental side of the game. On Brennan's pick, it looked like Davis was suppose to go outside. Last week he couldn't get lined up and caused a timeout.
Teach the kid 3 routes and be done with it.

It's not their fault they don't like up correctly. These kids come from high schools with 4 wide sets almost being the norm. Lineing up in 4 wide sets is natural to them. Fault lies directly on coaches!

O literally said this after the MSU game. I line is a major issue
And to OP, I think I agree about Davis. He looks to be the most talented WR we have played
