Not less. We're not good enough yet to take these games off and run a basic offense or defensive package. Try exotic shite. Let these freak athletes have fun. Open it up. If we win a natty then yea maybe holds your cards closer to the vest. We need these game reps to execute more plays not less.

And deprive us of win-melts? No way.

That makes perfect sense, and most competent coaching staffs would try more, but we don't have one of those. We have a head coach and a geriatric OC that no other school in the country would hire. But they love LSU, so it's ok, right?

Same shite different year. Game 4 and the offense is still looking for an identity. Stupid penalties. Guys that you wonder how they are on scholarship? No innovation on offense. Why not throw the ball to the Rb and try some screens before we play uga and bama? I guess we will still be wondering about the offense come game 8 as well. We are cursed somehow on offense.

I don’t think we should really “open” it up but why not call stuff that you already used this season. You can’t hide stuff from other teams if you already used it in other games.

It’s the SEC. It just means more.

they did in the beginning of the game, running some hurry-up pass heavy. Game got too close and didn't want to get into a shoot out so we played our winning card against them. That they can't match us up front and we ran the ball so we could win the game. If we got all flashy there is a real chance we lose that game. If you wan't more flash but more inconsistency watch some big 12 football.

We are - more backups getting playing time. Coaches building depth.

Maybe you did not notice that we did try to open it up and play younger players and wound up digging a hole in the 2nd and 3rd quarters. We had to go back to all the starters and pounding the football up the middle because we let the game slip.
