Don’t worry, whenever they finally bench Nuss that will be fixed because MVB can run

Van Buren isn't a SEC-level QB......maybe our O Line isn't, either.

This would be laughable if it weren't so pathetic.

Have yall seen enough first hand evidence now of why Alex Atkins was fired at Florida State? You DON'T GET FIRED if you're good at your job. FSU is no different than LSU. Atkins is just ANOTHER in the long line of of WEAK & LAZY hires by BK.

Remember when we were #1 in the portal and we had the best roster ever? Where are all the people that were taking victory laps and patting their backs when the season started?

It is truly amazing that our offense has actually got worse as the season has rolled on

3rd down conversions are the real test on if someone is a good coordinator or bad coordinator.

We have had two bad OC's this year.

Lane will fix that, if he is the guy. Of course, Lane will do some silly things like going for it on our own 30 with a 3 pt. lead, but I can live with that after watching this season.

They are decent but not as good as even the worst SEC teams.

Fun fact: WKU is the first FBS team with a winning record LSU has beat this

Against the 108th ranked run defense. And our OL standing around watching D lineman and LBs run past them

But remember, we’re spoiled. Those are the two questions that were asked by Cauble. Third down conversion inefficiency and no run game. He said those questions were ridiculous. REALLY?? Can’t imagine someone with so much coaching experience AND success can be so f’ing clueless.

FIFY. It’s a team game. If they can’t convert 3rd downs or even 4th and inches, it doesn’t seem to matter much who the QB is unless they are the second coming of JD.
If you are trying to run the ball on third and short and consistently lose yardage, that’s OL, play calling, will or toughness, and mental when a drive is stopped by penalties

After reading Dandy Don today, I’m not bullish on Lane landing here. It’s not going to come down to $ for him or NIL. Ole Miss and Florida will match. It will be about what else he thinks he gets from being there, whether he thinks he and his family will be happy, and opportunities for championships IMO

Dandy Don knows as much as you or I. This board has better sources than he does. Chicken has better sources.

That’s not a fact. Clemson is 6-5.
