I only object to using dishonest arguments and cherry picking stats to suit your claim. I agree he is not as good as Saban or Meyer, criticism of the in game adjustments and offensive development is valid. [/quote]
I can respect that, but trying to have an honest discussion as to why bot...

Several of them were. But they were telegraphed plays somewhat by Lee, but moreso by the playcalling. Lee just didn't have the recognition pre-snap to call off the plays and audible into a new one....

I'll stand corrected on 2010, but not 100%. Alabama simply lost a ton in 2010 on the defensive side of the ball. It is one thing to lose 4-5 players on each s...

Lee really wasn't as bad as his stats/pick 6 issues made it out to be. They did absolutely nothing to help him with play calling that year. They tried to force some of the pass plays despite having a legitimate running game.

yeah the net effect on THIS team would be interesting, b/c our offense doesn't give the D time to rest at all [/quote]
Despite the defense getting tired, if LSU scored more it would've forced UF to pass more. The fatigue killed LSU's DL at that point. UF could only do that because the ga...

Those teams from Bama and Florida that we beat were getting depleted because they won titles and sent tons of players to the league. It wasn't normal attrition.
Criticizing Les' in-game coaching doesn't equal cla...

 | re: Comparing the LSU Offense to the SF 49ers Offense - GangnamStyle on 10/7/12 at 11:16 pm He has one of the most physically gifted TEs in history and uses creativity in his play calling. That's the major difference.
LSU has no identity and instead of mixing things up tries to force things.
Also, SF's offense has been pretty mediocre until this game. ...

From starters we only lost Blackwell and Collins is an upgrade, so not sure how this guy is saying without the injury our OL would be worse anyway then last year.
We are worse on the OL because Ben Wilkerson is gone as the leader on the sidelines...

Not really. Our defense has been lights out even without those players.
We've struggled because of our offense. While Blue is hurt, LSU has enough depth to have that not matter.

 | re: So, injuries closing the talent gap = LSU in trouble? - GangnamStyle on 10/7/12 at 10:34 pm You didn't miss much outside of a really nice screen play to Hill.
The playcalling was just horrible and gave the offense no rhythm after the first drive, and the calls after the fumble were just bad leading to a FG.
We didn't even try and get the running game going and UF schemed beautifully...

Jenkins simply needs to be in a position where he doesn't have to think much, and he'll be average or a little better. Put him in a position where he has to think, and you're b...

Neither could I. We actually used the TEs and exploited an opening that we had created for ourselves with stale play calling all year. Then when UF adjusted we didn't and boom, offense gets shut down.

 | re: So, injuries closing the talent gap = LSU in trouble? - GangnamStyle on 10/7/12 at 10:15 pm The reason our offense looks good for a drive or two start the game is that they use the entire week to plan those initial drives. After that, if the team adjusts to counteract that plan, then the gameplan doesn't adjust. They just ride the defense praying they'll hold up.
That's all on Les and S...
