After seeing Bama's OL blow ND off the ball, it's even more clear to me that LSU's players deserve a full time OL coach, at a minimum


Key in this statement is "seeing Bama's OL blow ND off the ball" It sure makes calling plays look simple when an OL dominates like that. Other than the players executing, what is the difference in the plays that Alabama is running and what we have been running?

Are you serious? Have you seen 1 damn option? Notice how these coaches call plays that their players can actually execute.

I agree 100% that the line makes a difference, but playcalling is only part of it. You have to actually coach your players and know their strengths and weaknesses.

Are you watching this game? How many counter run plays have they run. Are you watching the multiple array of pass patterns that their receivers are running?

I don't remember seeing us run a post/flag pattern all season.

It is also nice seeing a running back get into a rhythm before being substituted. It is very different than watching Hill run for an average of 12 yrds and a TD on the 1st two plays and then not come out for the second series.

Their offense is light years ahead of ours. It's not just execution. Their plays look 10x as sophisticated as ours.
