Dig through my posts and you'll find dozens. A lot of us were concerned when Syracuse and East Michigan held LSUs passing game in check. It's just not an offense that's capable of winning the West.



It's hilarious that people are posting to defend our passing attack. Those are the people that never actually watch football games they just look at the box scores the next morning.

Yes, actually. You tell them that by passing early and often and spreading the defense out wider than our 1 WR big sets. If successful, the box won't be stacked anymore.


We passed early and often in the UF game. Try again.

I watched every second of every game. And also, link to me defending the passing game on the whole. I'll wait.

I just point out the bullshite. Everyone was on board and said they were bringing Harris along slow, but he was improving.

Now when LSU actually slings the ball around, just like everyone wanted, they get blown out.

LOL, LSU ran 38 plays for 178 yards from 3.29 in the 3rd to the end of the game. We scored zero points. We looked ridiculously incompetent trying to pass, and were just padding receiver stats at that point. Harris went 12 of 29 in that span.

Nearly have of our plays and over 1/3 of our yardage came when we were down 21 points.

Our 2011 & 2013 offenses were great. Do I need to post facts proving it or do you want to continue believing your biased opinion?

The offense was awful throughout 2012. Clemson shut it down. A decent offense and LSU probably wins the NC.

Exactly. Posters forget how many players we lost to injury in 2012. It was the most I'd ever seen at lsu .
Starting rb, 3 starting olineman, 2 starting lbs and we lost a heisman finalist to off the field shite.

Arkansas game the coaches ran shotgun on the first 21 plays.

Yes, which was too much to ask Harris imo when we didn't do nearly enough during the season to develop the passing game.

Do you even watch the games? Bama dominated us up front, you can't do shite with that.
Some teams are able to win games even with a bad day on the ground. We are not.

And?if you have to have 1 phase of offense be dominant you want your run game to be dominant. Why haven't all these pass happy teams won titles?

True. Even when Odell was here he was rarely wide open

That's what happens when you lose 3 starting oline players.

There's your horrible lack of dicipline from the head coach. That's just another reason he should be canned.

I hope you're fricking joking. OBJR and Landry got open plenty at lsu. It's like you people just imagine a diff reality so you can shite on lsu's success.

We have 2 of the best wrs to ever play at lsu? So they were never open and had to make circus catches.

I didn't say anything about 2011 but since you mention it, it was a decent offense but not special. That team lived off ST and defense and you know it.

2013 offense was good, Never said it wasn't. But it also featured NFL skill players. Without NFL skill players, the offense fails. And do you see anyone of Mett, Landry, or Odell's caliber on the roster?

Oh and the 2013 offense STILL failed against Bama. So the best Miles offense, with an NFL QB, WRs, and RB, still can't score shite on Bama.

So yea, you think 12 passes in a half is throwing "early and often", but you want me to try again?

Throwing the ball 51 times because you're trailing by double digits isn't what everyone wanted, I'd think you'd be able to realize the difference there.
