Why is it year after year there is this feeling that LSU could explode on offense, with the right guy at the helm, but it never happens?

I don't think that's the case. If this offense was just Top 50, the team would be exponentially better. That's not too much to ask for an upper tier program like LSU.

It's a mindset issue.

LSU always seems to tell their QB: Don't throw into coverage, don't take a sack, don't throw an interception...

Not, "complete passes, let 'er rip, take some shots,' etc.

LSU can win 9-10 games a year by simply running the ball, playing defense and winning field position. Unfortunantely, it takes more than that to beat Alabama or other elite programs.

You can beat Georgia by 20 points when you win the turnover battle 4-0. You lose to Florida when it's 0-0 or 0-1, however.

Ed O / LSU needs to fundamentally change their approach to offensive football. Get away from the Les Miles / Charles McClendon model of "just run the ball" and head towards a more dynamic "score as much as you can" mindset.

Because we’ve never had the right guy at the helm. I wasn’t crazy about all the motion and window dressing of Canada, he wasn’t my first choice or even my 5th choice. Ensminger stinks.
