I'm critical of every other team that plays sloppy ball.
What does it matter if Im critical of the team I cheer fo?

i've been making the same argument on here since 2004 (yes, when Saban was roaming our sidelines)

You and I will never see eye to eye on this.
Game reps on something that we can plainly see is better than what we are used to seeing. ...and the reps would be minimal, taking reps away from younger backs not named Fournette. What about them?

Strange, I was expecting us to be sloppy at least during the first half. long trip east, New York, young kids. Just like when teams travel to Hawaii to play. they are almost always sloppy at first. no big deal. They took care of business in the second half. Harris threw some nice passes and LF is LF. Syracuse 5th string QB is best 5th string QB I have ever seen.

DBU might be in trouble if a kid making his first start in major college ball can throw 3 TD pass on us in a half.

Who started at RB and how good were they each year? Which year was there more of a necessity to throw the ball?

RBs don't really need reps the same way a passing game does
the running game is simpler (just as stopping it is simpler). that's why teams who win titles have legit passing threats
when was the last time a team won a title without passing for 2500 yards or so? i don't know but i bet you it's been a while

does a great running game now negatively affect your efficiency stats? i didn't just post total passing yard

Stats are stats, but without noting that Jennings played only 1 Power 5 program and Harris has started out playing 3 including 2 from the SEC and 2 on the road in home stadiums...I am hard pressed to find a valid comparison.

Matt Flynn in 2007 had 24
McElroy in 09 had 25.
It's been done. I'm not saying they don't need to throw the ball. All I'm saying is that you're putting emphasis on practicing game reps and Harris has thrown the ball more and more each game.
Was 16 throws yesterday nit efficient? What's a good number? 3 more passes? 4? What's that accomplishing?

It effects the necessity to run the ball.

huh?
i just ran the stats for teams and i went back to FSU in 99 and one team, OSU in 2002, didn't hit 2500 yards (they were close)
2014: OSU over
2013: FSU over
2012: Bama over
2011: Bama over
2010: Auburn over
2009: Bama over
2008: Florida over
2007: LSU over
2006: Florida over
2005: Texas over
2004: USC over
2003: LSU over
2002: OSU under (by 75 yards)
2001: Miami over
2000: OU over
1999: FSU over
flynn had 2400 but missed 2 games and RP had almost 700 so LSU in 2007 was way over. mcelroy alone threw for over 2500 in 09
also of note, i don't think going further into the 90s will help b/c of the 12-team standard schedule + CG + bowl stats

he had one bomb and little otherwise

working on timing in the intermediate passing game to gain trust in it so we use it
working on pass protection (which apparently needs a lot of work)
working on the reads for our route tree against defenses
we need to pass until these phases of the passing game are humming in unison. they obviously are not as of yesterday

we are playing shite teams. we will win without a complete meltdown. we will run on them even with a meltdown
saying "we need to run when we run well" is irrelevant when we can put in our 2nd string and run on them (EMU more than 'Cuse)
does anybody doubt that we can put in jennings and guice/brosette next week and run for 200+??

Has anyone told you that your misery over the fans is FAR worse than the fans misery over any perceived issue you may have with others making their opinions known on here?
Your misery and never ending crusade to tell people why they should not be so critical is very sad.

That same message applies to you as well , OP.

Oh look, BeeFense started a thread to bash LSU fans, how shocking.
Next thing you know runningTiger will call someone a Deceptatiger.

Yes, many LSU fans live in a bubble with no perspective of the other college.

let me add this point
if our passing game develops to where we sustain drives, we will have more plays to divide up. the "plays" argument requires a zero-sum analysis of the total plays our offense may be on the field, which is not reflected in reality. our # of plays is not static and an improved mid-range passing game developing to sustain drives means more carries for LF, Guice, Williams, etc
