Sorry guys Hurts is not the difference. LSU has not developed the OL position well enough. The difference in the trenches is why Alabama has beaten LSU. Etling is not a terrible QB. I would argue behind Bama OL he would have done quite well.

ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. It's a shame it takes a bama fan to know the lsu team better than half the lsu fans on this board.
Bama beats lsu in the trenches. specifically offensive tackles, defensive end, and defensive n/g, tackle.
If you watch the game this year. The two teams were pretty close. Our tackles couldn't handle their ends. In turn, etling was rushed and panicked. Hurts didn't have a lot of time either. however, as the game wore on, our d line tired and he became effective up the gut. (Gilmore) This was later exposed by atm. Gilmore w/o beckwith behind is a HUGE WEAKNESS.
What is really frustrating, two of the position they have the edge at are result of Louisiana players. Williams and Robinson. Put them on lsu's team, take them off of bama's team. You might win that game.
If you look at the games lsu lost this year. Wisonsin, Bama, Au, and Florida. All four teams defensive line whipped our o-line.

Oh I didn't say that Hurts was the difference. I said
Which is what Hurts did. McCarron may be the best "QB" they've hd in a while.
We definitely lost the trench battle against Bama a few weeks ago though.

Well, I guess LSU's DL is just that much better than AL's, b/c in the game I witnessed, each QB completed one long pass, otherwise I saw 2 QBs that couldn't throw accurately on even short passes, but one of those guys was able to move the chains w his feet.
The 4th Q began scoreless. Hurts threw ONE pass in that Q and it was incomplete. The only meaningful yards gained were by Hurts on the ground. After 3.5 Qs of being one man up at the point of attack, AL FINALLY scored.
If LSU had a viable rushing option at QB, AL would have suffered the same fate, and outside of getting away w holding, the OLs were negligible. Man for man, AL's depth and talent on the OL is better, but on that night, it was nothing a mobile QB could not have overcome. In other words, if Etling could run a 4.4 and take a hit, we wouldn't be talking about your OL.
