Heck, if '10 could resemble '07 I'd take that in a heart beat.

What do you think the chances are that could happen?

Graspin' for something positive.

Crowton and Chavis both were victoms of poor lines. We had the worst lines of any LSU team this decade.

No running game and zero pass protection = no offense.

Blitz on thrird down and never getting to the QB = 3rd and Chavis.

If we can improve the lines with the new faces next year, we will see drastic improvement on both sides of the ball.

The scheme that was good enough to set records and win the NC has not changed so the answer is yes if(A)The QB play improves mentally, in execution and in leadership skills (B)The Oline improves say 20% in efficiency. The rest, skill position depth, speed,desire, that's already in place. Gary and Les just have not been able to adapt their schemes to young guys with talent but lacking know-how and leadership. Hell, with the points and yardage of '08 less the turnovers the team could compete for titles next season IMO.

we can hope, and it is possible with a more experienced qb that it can happen. i don't know that it will, but i do think our offense will be better. but then, it can't get much worse.

I think Crowton will return to his '07 form since he will have an experinced quarterback to run his offense. If he dosen't than he should be replaced.

As much as I'd love for to see it, I don't see it happening. I fear as long as Studwara and GC remain here, we'll have "3'n Crowton"*.



* Reference to all the 3-and-outs. I just made it up.

At this moment, I don't see why anyone would think the chances are great. As long as we are weak on the lines and at QB,it's going to be tough. And I don't have any reason to believe there is going to be any schematic or philosophical change among the coaches.

We might have the best offense in LSU history in 2010, but I'm gonna have to see it to believe it.

Probably not. He new at LSU with an offense that has been coached with the details and fundamentals. Crowton may have great schemes, but he has very poor coaching/teaching skills.
