Will LSU ever start the first drive of a game with a pass?

So far this season, we have started the opening drive of every game with the same play; dive off tackle right side. Is it just simply the safest way to shake off the butterflies?

No
We're going to run the ball early and often in the 1st half against Bama to see what kind of success we have.
If the beginning of games with Ware so far are any indicator we're going to have a TON of very short runs on 1st and 2nd down.
It takes LSU until about the 2nd quarter to finally get a push up front when running with Ware. It'll be even tougher against Alabama.

a playaction deep pass would be nice. Everybody in the world knows what to expect on the first play.

We did against NWST did we not?
I assume you mean our first offensive drive of the game?
12-Jarrett Lee pass complete to 2-Rueben Randle for 43 yards to the NWLA24, 1ST DOWN LS, out-of-bounds (1A-White, Bert).

Last time I say LSU start the game with a pass it was 2008 and georgia is still running the other way with that ball.

Might be a trick play waiting to happen. Going deep on the first play of the first drive. Seems like a Lesticles type of call.

1st play; WR reverse for 32 yds
2nd play; statue of liberty Beckham for 20 yds.
3rd play; flea flicker deep to RR touchdown.
that would fuk their heads up for the rest of the game.

Auburn: Blue for 5 yards
Tennessee: Ware for 16 yards
Florida: Ware for 4 yards
Kentucky: Ware for 1 yard
West Virginia: Ware for 2 yards
Miss State: Ware for 3 yards
Northwestern: Pass play for TD
Oregon: Ware for 3 yards
So we've started out with a run up the gut in 7 out of 8 games. It averages 4.4 ypc.

The entire Alabama defense and everyone in the stands will have their eyes out for play action on the first play. It would be no big surprise.

Don't think so. LSU has played smart football the whole year. They will try to access the defense the first few plays. LSU playes a possession or two very conservatively and then opens up the pass game. IT makes sense we have such a huge turnover margin.

Miles figures his strong team can run it down the throat of anybody he plays. So far he has been right. Remains to be seen if bama can stop the up the middle attack of LSU. If they can't gonna be a long night for the bamas. Of course Saban has much the same game plan gone keep hitting our defense with Trent runs till we stop him. If we can't stop bama's run gonna be a long night for the Tiger faithful. The real fun will be if neither team can run the ball against the opposing defense then the offense's adjustment will determine a winner
