Because I watched the game!! Listen, I have been as down on Jefferson and Crowton as anyone the last couple of years and I think our offense was 80% of the time very basic but did you see how many young kids we had on the field? On the 97 yard pass Mathieu, Reid, Mingo, Montgomery, Simon and many other first time starting players. They made some mistakes granted, but to get down on the whole team is wrong. Did I complain when Miles started playing Big Ten football in the middle of the 3rd quarter, absolutely, but I recognize the youth of this team and that Jefferson has gotten better. I also believe that Cowherd was right this morning when he said that many good teams looked bad because of youth but had explosiveness and LSU does. Lets wait until the 3rd game of the season and then see if we have gotten better.

This team does have talent and explosiveness....but the coaching staff will negate that edge.

If you say you watched this game that is great. Did you watch any games last year? What we saw was the same offense with the same on field leader with very little change from an offense that finished ranked in the triple digits last year. Our offense truly accounted for 1 touchdown yesterday and if it weren't for the great field position afforded us by special teams a case could be made that we wouldn't have scored at all on offense......bottom line is what I saw Saturday was a case of same ole same ole on offense and it was fairly sickening.
