LSU offense vs. Bama offense

So, I'm watching last night's game and focusing on what Bama is doing to shred ND's defense.
I'm no coach... But what they are running doesn't look a lot different to me than what LSU runs. They just seem to be a lot more successful with it. So, seems like execution to me.... And an OL with what Herbie and Musberger say are 3 or 4 NFL 1st round draft picks, a QB that will be a Heisman favorite next year, and TJ Yelton that Mark Ingram says is possibly the best running back ever at Alabama. Better than Ingeam and Richardson in his Opinion.... So that's all, I guess.

it starts with the OL. It is way better than ours. The run blocking is the formula. I agree that the offense is not much different.

so it has all been on the line since 2009?
and who is responsible for developing them? recruiting them?

How many times did we run out of the shotgun this year?
Sorry I don't see the similarities. They run a lot from the spread while we run mostly out of the I with double te's

It is all about execution, but these Miles haters can't admit that. They have a good offense on NCAA 13 and they think an offense can be successful unless there is huge creativity in the offensive game plan. When in fact, CFB is about executing the plays you run well. Not about calling some bullshite play no one has ever seen.

Run up the middle and PA pass. That's what they did all game. The difference is Bama's OL alone got 5yds every run play and McCarron had about 7-10 seconds to pass every pass play.

Our offense is really not that difference, the main difference is they just execute to perfection, meanwhile we continue to go 3 and out... Bama's O-line is the heart and soul of their team. Because of that mammoth o-line it is possible to make AJ, Lacy, and Cooper all look like heisman finalists... They are better than us in the oline department, wide receiver department too only cuz we dont have a mammoth of a man like Cooper. Our backs is every bit as good as their backs are IMO. AJ is better than Zach only from experience. But i actually do see alot of potential in this offense if he has the given time from the oline

Not similar at all. Bama ran mostly one back sets. Didn't see a FB all night. Pass routes are more sophisticated, like flooding a zone with three receivers. They throw to the TEs and RBs, so the QB almost always has 4 or 5 receivers and can look for mismatches or single coverage. They throw out of running formations and run from the spread.
They rarely max protect. Generally they leave 5 or 6 to block and put 4 or 5 receivers out running routes at different levels. Forces the defense to stay back in coverage and helps the O-line pass protect.
Most importantly, their play selection is not predictable based on personnel, down or distance. Keeps the defense honest.
It is not a complex offense, but it is well designed. The Bama players excute well because the Bama coaches give them the tools and a level playing field. They aren't constantly working against defenses that can anticipate the plays and sell out to stop them.
LSU's offense has ranked n the bottom quartile nationally over the last five years for a reason and it is not the players. The players come and go, but the coaches stay and keep doing the same thing but hoping for a different result.

Yes it starts with the O-line. But Alabama makes a defense have to make decisions with the plays that Alabama runs. On any givin pass play thay have 3 or 4 recievers attacking every single level of the field. It isn't a fluke that the RB's catch so many balls with room to run. It seems like LSU just runs 2 recievers out in simple routs all the time. LSU seems so predictable just by the personnel they run out on the field. Just my two cents...I'm not trying to make any enemies
