It's only a matter of time before LSU offense gets rolling.

I think LSU's offense is sputtering because of a considerable lack of experience at the skilled positions. QB is a rookie. RB's experience has been limited by the 4-5 back rotation. The WR group is very young. Only OBJ has experience and how often did LSU pass last season? It will take time for all of these inexperienced players to get comfortable. Add in offensive line injuries, and you have the recipe for a slow progressing offense. It's a good thing we have talent. It won't be long before it all comes together ... I hope.

So what's LSU been averaging points per game over those 5 years? In the SEC.

Checked out the offensive stats last night on ESPN. The Tigers are beating Bama in nearly every offensive stastical cataeory. I think the penalities and the pass blocking is poor. They need to put it together this weekend in Florida.
I still think our athletes are the best in the SEC. They need to play up to the competition. Mett will be fine. Give him some protection.

The very same thing could be said about Texas A&M but the offensive philosophy of Sumlin makes the difference.LSU's offense is too predictable compared with A&M, yet, A&M has a freshman QB, not nearly as good of running backs and an inexperienced O-Line.Our offense is just too predictable.

I think predictability is a large part of the problem as well. I just didn't want to put too many points in one post.

I think if the Tigers come out Saturday amped up and not sleepwalking, focus on the task at hand, might not be that close.

One area where Texas A&M didn't have great success early in Saturday's 70-14 win over South Carolina State was the running game.Apparently, you haven't seen Alabama's O-Line and don't believe the coach of A&M Sumlin.

Those fancy smanzy offenses are what you do when you don't have enough athletes to do what LSU and Bama does on offense.

When you have the "hosses" you just line up and dare the other team to stop you...nothing fancy required.

That is the tried and true way to win games and championships. The casual fan hates it of course, but lets what see what Sumlin's record is Compared to CLM in 5 years. I know where I'm putting my money.

Sounds like the 2013 LSU Tigers will be a force to be reckoned with, then,

But wouldn't it be nice if wishful thinking always happened the way we wish? With *CLM at the helm, one never knows what to expect.
