We have yet to see a high powered offense coupled with a stifling defense. That's about to change.

If your defense scores 0 in the NC, your offense can't score 0 and win!

You saw Laird and Ross come up big in that last game on Saturday. If they start to hit the ball consistently I think we can ride an explosive offense to a championship

LSU has to score in order for LSU to have a chance to win.

Look at the high air raid offenses and see for yourself.
Oregon? Close but no cigar.
West Virginia? No.
Texas Tech? No.
Oklahoma? Not as long as Bob Stoops is there. So keep him there.
Okie Light?
I would like to see our offense step it up, through the air but I don't want it to turn into a major air raid team.
Our bread and butter is running the ball, right into the opposing team's defense. I'd like to see that continue, it just beats up a defense mentally and physically.
I would like to see us get away from the 8 plays (being facetious) we seemed to constantly run last season. Pass, pass, dropped pass, run, run, punt, but we would score. But it was always the same plays. If I know what play is coming, the opposing coach sure should know because I never played a down of football in my life.
And I think we'll get away from that trend and throw some stuff at opposing teams that'll be tough for them to manage.

SEC offense that have averaged 500 yards per game all-time (edited from "in recent seasons." Looking back, nobody averaged 500 ypg before 1995 Florida):
2012 Texas A&M, 11-2, 558.5 ypg
2010 Auburn, 13-0 (national champs) 499.2 ypg (Round up to 500)
2001 Florida, 10-2, 527.5 ypg
1998 Kentucky, 6-6, 534.2 ypg
1996 Florida, 12-1 (national champs), 503.9 ypg
1995 Florida 12-1, 534.4 ypg
I'm just going off SEC statistical leaders. If there were teams that averaged 500 ypg and did not lead the SEC in yards, then I missed them.
So in the history of the SEC, there are 6 500-ypg teams (yeah, Auburn gets an asterisk) and they have combined for a 64-12 record, two national titles and three games where they played for national titles (1995 Florida lost to Nebraska in the Fiesta Bowl).
Half the losses come from that one Kentucky team that was all offense, no defense. Kentucky gonna Kentucky.
So yeah, if you can put up numbers, do it. I don't think it hurts your defense. It might hurt your defense's statistics, but at the end of the day, it's not about that.

The pistol is not an offense, it is a formation.
