Help me to understand, all who believe we were vanilla last night to not give Auburn anything to game plan against so that we may surprise them.
1. We should be able to be as vanilla as possible and still score at will against SELA

2. Why is it only LSU being vanilla? All these other schools are putting up big offense agains shite schools, why are we the only ones that "save our playbook?"

3. How has the "saving the playbook" argument worked every year when LSU fans do it after 2 weeks? Answer: Not good.

Aubun, our upcoming opponent, threw long, threw short, ran screens, rushed wide, rushed up the middle, ran typical GusBus offense, even ran RPOs with QB keeping the ball, ran a couple draws, jet sweep, put a WR in the backfield at times, split out their FB.

All in one game. Why? We now have to prepare to defend all of that. And they did it successfully because it was a cupcake, so we have to assume they have the plays, can execute the plays, and will call the plays.

What did AU learn from our game?
Blitz, they'll go max protect, jam the WRs to slow the QB clock, get sack/throwaway/breakup
