Everyone in the stadium knows that when Dural and Dupree come out of the game and they put in the "Blocking Receivers" its going to 100 percent be a run.
If I were the other team and I saw Sullivan and Davis come into the game I would load the box with 9 guys.

Same way they used to do with Trindon Holiday. They bring him in for 1 play to give him the ball, then take him out. Real subtle.

and don't tell me Sullivan and Davis, true freshmen, are known blockers.

It is also how they use Guice when LF is in the game.

Has Sullivan played a down yet. Davis hasn't played much. I'm positive Dural and Dupree have played most of the snaps and LSU has run the ball. Check your facts and get back with us. If you are a teenager....post less and comment on other posts.

How about throwing to some of the blocking receivers; think we got scored on by blocking (TE or OL) last year.

Against Wisconsin, Dupre and Dural played the vast majority of the offensive snaps, but we did occasionally sub in Chark and Ferguson and only ran the ball. Against Jacksonville St, we substituted the wide receivers a bunch, so other guys did play much more.

I can't speak about Sullivan, but Chark, Ferguson and even Russel Gage played in some 2 wr formations. Davis played some and had a catch and nice run after catch on our last drive.

You mean LSU telegraphs their plays? Yeah I agree, especially the last two years when Trey Quinn and John Diarse were in the twins lineup to block 99% of the time.

Same thing with Spencer Ware and Michael Ford... Ware was the up the middle bruiser and receiving back.. Ford was the speed option guy, or off tackle runner.

This has been known to anyone with a brain for the last few years.

Oh look, Quinn and Diarse or coming in the game and Dupre and Dural are going out. 99% chance it's a run.
I would love to see the numbers from last year on this.

Just looked at the Wisconsin film, every pass. Not one time did we attempt a pass without Dupre and Dural on the field. This is the predictable crap I just don't get. I notice this watching on my couch. you think opposing coaches don't?

Before the Quinn/Diarse running game combo, Miles used the James Wright personnel group too.

Been this way for years.

I've been looking for the quote, but I believe Alabama said that we were predictable by personnel. If the players say it, everyone knows it.
