How about 4 TDs per game? Gaining yards won't do us much good.

250 passing yards translates into allot of scoring per game with our offense. Gaining passing yards will translate into allot of TD's when you have as good as running backs as we will have.

As long as LSU is moving the football, I don't care how they actually get it in the endzone. The death of this offense has been their approach of: 1st down - running into a 9 man box for 3 yards; 2nd down - running into a 9 man box for 2 yards. 3rd down - attempting a very conservative pass to one pre-designated receiver, or being so terrified to try to pick up the 1st down through the air that they run up the middle on 3 and 5 to no avail.

If you go back to 2013, which is clearly LSU's most prolific passing year since at least 2008 you'll see that outside of the UGA game and the non-conf cupcakes, LSU didn't score a ton through the air. They did however keep the chains moving on third down with the passing game.
