might be a decent QB coach but he called plays like a retarded kid playing Madden.

Perhaps.

But there could be an argument that the only difference in success between this year's offense and last year's offense is Daniel's ability to scramble/run...which is really more a factor of improvisation than playcalling.

LSU threw for 13 more ypg last season. Johnson threw for more yards in 12 games (2815) than Daniels this season (2566). Johnson also threw for 27 TDs while Daniel's has thrown for 15. LSU has 15 total TOs this season. Last year they had 16. LSU's RBs averaged more ypg last season than the RBs did this season. LSU averaged appx. 5 more ppg this season and 1 more offensive TD per game this season. The biggest difference in terms of yards gained between this season and last season is this season you had a QB run for 800+ yards from scrimmage (including sacks), while last year your starting QB ran for -41 yards (including sacks)

Now, when you have a QB with the ability to run like Daniels it would be foolish not to incorporate that into your offense. And there were absolutely designed runs called for Daniels. Several of them. But I think we would all agree the majority of his long runs came off of QB scrambles rather than called QB run plays.

So the question could be asked: Was this year's improved offense a result of improved play calling? Or was it more of a result of a QB who could turn an otherwise negative play into a significant gain simply through improvisation?

I'm not taking a position one way or the other. Just a another way to look at it.

I don’t think anyone who coached under O in 2021 should be looked at too negatively. That wasn’t a sinking ship, that ship was sunk. Hard to get a read.

This is a crazy stat. Im guessing TDP going off on Florida helped.

The fact that the defense seemed to still improve toward the back half of the season should speak very well to Daronte Jones.

TDP would have been a huge addition to the backfield this year.

Yep. And he did it largely with the second team.

Rhule is putting together a great staff. They are an easy team to root for.

Are they a great fanbase? Or have they just been trash for 30 years? Tennessee seemed like a tolerable fanbase until their douche baseball coach came along and they tasted success and turned into Alabama’s fans 2.0

My dad has always maintained that Nebraska has one of the biggest a-hole fanbases in the country when they’re on top and I 100% trust him on things like that

The defense improved drastically because Oregon finally accepted his ridiculous defensive approach/concept didn't work after Lane Kiffin told him as much following the Ole Miss game. LSU didn't just "improve" in the Alabama game. It was an entirely different defensive approach. Which leads to the question: Was Jones really a bad DC? Or was he hamstrung by a moron HC who thought he actually had a deeper understanding of football than he has really ever had?

Ed Orgeron had the greatest job in the world. Be the HC, recruit, and stay the hell out of the way in terms of the actual on field approach/gameplay. He couldn't do it. The moment Aranda left was the moment he got excited to implement is fan-fiction late 80's Miami/early 00's USC combination defense with no deep understanding as to why those defenses worked; what personnel was needed to make them work; and why they may not work against today's offensive approaches.

He was like a guy who saw a house in Oregon and wanted an exact replica to be built in South Louisiana without any understanding that maybe the weather, or soil conditions, or other factors weren't conducive to building that exact house here. He just new what he wanted it to "look like" and instructed his builder to make it look like that. So when it inevitably fell apart he blamed his builders, rather than accepting that exact house shouldn't have been built here in the first place.

Not being in track meets every game due to the defense actually getting stops this year plays a part in that.

He can finally stop running around the field aimlessly... now he can just run aimlessly around the QB

no balance in his play calling after LSU ran the scripted plays.
