Does LSU let Jennings air it out to practice his passing? Or does LSU mainly work on run blocking skills?



I was impressed with Jennings pocket presence. He did twirl around a lot but he seemed to avoid rushers and was aware of them. He was not a standing statue like Jefferson always was.

If you think LSU can just force their will of running the ball against SEC elite defenses then think again. The offense needs to be balanced otherwise it's 7-8 in the box for every play.

He'll probably throw for 3 TD's.

Don't think there will be no airing it out. Continue to work on that running game and pounding the rock for at least the first half and wearing them down.

People act like we don't need to work on the run game.

We had 17 yards rushing at half time the other day. We definitely need to work on that 1st and foremost.

Here's another utterly predictable LSU fan bitch/complaint/question/desire/issue/, etc, etc . . . we need to stop being conservative and pass more. I swear to God it's been the same going back decades. No matter who is coaching. No matter who is at QB.

I don't need to see them air it out but I wish they would spread the field alot more than the I form. Jennings did better in that formation and we ran it better too. I know that isn't Miles' MO though.

Hell yes I was. Everyone should be;

dude's a sophomore, playing not at home, down 17 to a ranked opponent, and the most proven offensive threats on the team, the running backs, were getting shut down. Most of us would shite our pants in that situation, but he didn't. He stood in there, figured out his speed option (Dural), his physical playmaker (Diarse), and route/possession option (Quinn), and led a rally. He made plays when he absolutely had to. He didn't drown when things went way bad.

Criticize his throws and reads if you want to, but his presence was A+.

Bruh.. I like Jennings but pocket presence is definitely a glaring weakness. He's only played in two full games and been sacked 5+ times already.

PLUS everytime he feels any form of pressure, instead of stepping up in the pocket he does a little spin move and basically spins into the pressure.

Also, I think you are confused on what pocket presence is.
