No.. You gash them with the best RB in the nation

So 15 yards passing in a second half to a team that was thrashed by southern miss in the air means that ALL check downs to runs were aggressive play calling. Not buying this! 15 yards passing because passes were checked down to runs is almost like an army or navy run offense ! And if so why do we recruit great wide receivers in the first place. I bet every passing offense would laugh at this thought process . Or offense that is more balanced than LSU .

they're sending a blitz that the average fan wouldn't know that they're sending

Well now all auburn has to do is send a blitz on one side and they'll know that the play will be a run to the other side. Great.

As the season progresses., BH gets more experienced with reading the blitz on the fly, we'll call more pass plays.
It isn't as simple as throw a slant where the pressure comes from. You have to immediately decipher between man blitz and zone blitz. You have to figure out where the pressure is coming from and if anyone is dropping out. Is it cover 1, cover 2, cover 3, cover 6? Combo coverage.
The opposing defense still has to expect the play action pass anyway. Guys are going to be pinning their ears back on a blitz call either way it goes, so that's a null and void point.

While this may be true, the problem for me is if these checks to runs continue to happen, teams will figure out that LSU won't check to a pass. You have to eventually show to ability (or threat) to pass in these situations, even if it's just a quick slant or screen. That's the only way to back the pressure off. Otherwise teams will pin their ears back and play the run.
Please, please write a letter to the coaching staff telling them this. You might be the only person in the world that has thought of it.

Easy way to know if it's man or zone blitz: put a WR/TE in motion.

That's the problem. They don't respect the play-action at this point. If the coaches/players know it's going to be a run no matter what, you're saying they won't play it more aggressively or have a different plan all together??
I mean, leak out a RB from the backfield. Yes, it's that easy.

The great QBs look at film of themselves and opponent . There has to be a WANT for this to happen. If not then all of this qb development is just patch work .
Could someone please tell me how the Ohio state qb checked off to passes and runs with very little game experience against Alabama

if they are blitzing, that doesnt mean hey lets run...sometimes that means throw to the vacated spot...
Posted on 9/15/15 at 12:41 pm to Gray Tiger
I don't know anything about former players getting called idiots for criticism but I do know they have criticized the offense in the past. There have been a few in recent years, including Rueben Randle, PP7, and I think OBJ. Just saturday Randle Tweeted, "Every year its the same stuff" :( #LSUProblems

This makes sense. Running in to a blitz may not move the chains, but it certainly wont lead to a turnover. Safe call.
And if Fournette gets 1 step past the line he is gone. Blitz means nobody on the second level is there to stop him.

Jeez
Kid is starting only his second game. Didn't have best performance his first game and had to be relieved. Didn't get to play a warm-up game as scheduled.
You think it's possible that the coaches just wanted him to get through this game? Prove he can see the defensive scheme accurately while giving him a safe check that can't be baited into a serious mistake like a pick 6? If it shows on film he recognized the schemes correctly maybe they can increase his options as games go by?
We didn't get the warm up game he needed. Got to factor that in.
