Ed Orgeron On LSU's Offensive Struggles: "We've Lost Our Identity Since The Georgia Game"

LSU head coach Ed Orgeron commented on the team's offensive struggles during his weekly press conference on Monday. Here's what he had to say:
quote:
QUESTION: What do you think it takes, it will take to find the offense that you had against Georgia, it's been a real struggle over the last month. Do you think it's not only execution but scouting or are people taking things away from you? What do you think is happening there?
ED ORGERON: Yeah, I think for some how some way we lost our identity since the Georgia game. We're trying new things, maybe we're trying to get a little too, put too much in, we need to simplify. I asked Steve to go back and look at the game and figure out what we did right there because we were clicking pretty good that game and let's look at the things that we did, I think it's more or less to simplify. We're putting too many things in, are we trying to cover up some things that are some weaknesses, maybe. Maybe some times we feel like we're handcuffed, we can't get as many receivers out as we want to or something like that because of protection or whatever it may be. But I did ask him to go back and look at the Georgia game, look at what we did well, simplify and today we're going to do a lot of that stuff and look at what the guys are doing to us on defense, the defenses that are giving us problems, have answers for those defenses because we're going to see them again.
QUESTION: You just talked a lot about the offensive issues but seemed like the last few games the screen game in particular has really been taken away a lot. What do you think the issues might be there?
ED ORGERON: We looked at it yesterday, and we looked at tendencies, we looked at on the down and distance we called it, we looked at formation, we looked at what are we giving away, what are they doing to take away from us. And you're exactly right it's not working. We had a screen cut up and we looked at it as a staff yesterday and some things we have identified. So we have to do some things different to help us in the screen game, obviously it's important in our package.
QUESTION: Is there anything you observed about Burrow and Jefferson that makes them such a big combo?
ED ORGERON: Yeah, I think that first of all, I really like the techniques that Jerry Sullivan has taught our guys. You can see, especially against press coverage, you can see the foot work and guys are getting free, guys are getting open, I thought Steve dialed up the game plan on the, in the passing game, the crossing routes were wide open. Those things are working well. I do expect Joe to play better. He's had some really good games, he's had some okay games, and he knows that, he's a competitor. I would expect him to pick up his game the next couple games.
