re: Joe Burrow will lead us to the promise land next year.......

---

1. Entire offense coming back next year(now have chemistry with talent)
2. When had time to throw Burrow has elite accuracy
3. Another year with Aranda (defense will always be good with Aranda)
4. Ed O fixes problems ( every weakness we had last year was strength this year)
5. Easier schedule

---

What this fails to account for is the unknown, unforseen circumstances that affect every football team, every single season.

Winning championships is as much about preparing/reacting to misfortune as anything else. How has the head football coach handled that aspect of his job?

1. Offense

Senior QB co.ing back with 2nd string QB now with 2 years of college under his belt.

Offensive line returning 4 of 5 starters. With the possiblility
Of a previous starter coming back into the fold and supposedly a instant starter for the guard position could possibly make this our best online I can remember recently.

A sseasoned and capable RB with a promising young dou expected to provide relief and spark.

Experienced allstar talented WR corps, see if they can expand route tree and repertoire with burrow this summer.

The weak point is TE but if mclendon and parker makes it this year rhey will be able to make that blocking role.
The person I am most excited about is mcmath he was previously my personal favorite at the WR position. I'm very anxious to see how he grows im hoping he is the begining of the recieving tightend begging back at LSU.

2. Defense
LB Phillip's is looking all world to me. Chaisson is kind of a wild card but I believe he will be penciled in as a starter, how does he come back? How the rest of LB corps shakes out between, divinity, anthony, baskerville, queen shoot if we get Taylor back I think we will have 2 years running the best 2 MLB in sec. I believe this is still the strength of the defense.

I honestly think the second strongest unit will be defensive line. All the guys are coming back except big ed. I think awrence and fehoko step up again next year, but also Logan, farrel and hopefully sop are going to be huge. You add shelvin at NT with ika rotating I think that the Dli e if healthy will hold their gaps all year and not be bullied as they were at times this year.

Then the defensive back end you can classify as a whole or separate. The safeties if you classify that as a group then they are even ahead of the LB in skill group. Delpit, Stevens monroe and if they can spare him and allow him to play where his skills can best be used for ball hawking kelvin Joseph I just dont know if lsu has depth to allow his to practice solely at safety. The worrisome spot is CB but by halfway point could be strong point Fulton and stingley on the corner with Vincent being very reliable and future starter. Then raydarious and flot both have big years I personally really like what I see on highlights from flot but from highlights jones did not play much cb on highschool I saw. They both are underrated imo but I'm a tiger fan so... lol


From what I see as a weakness on next years team is TE, and CB. I think both are covered if shallow.

Next weakness would be injury. imo that would be burrow getting seriously injured or Phillips/delpit seriously getting injured any of those guys goes down that could seriously limit our ceiling.


Ha I know it's coming so yall can screw off with the corrections.

Holy crap idk how I forgot about him that's right he was supposed to be the truth this year

Not unless our mentality and scheme change on offense. Let’s just say our OC somehow gets better at his job next year scheme and play calling wise I am very skeptical that O will let him stay aggressive and not sit back and rely on the defense to win the game. He’s been prone to do this and you simply cannot win championships in this day and age of college football coaching like that.

That's what I've been preaching, Crucial Taunt, but plenty of folks round here have chosen to pretend otherwise. If he doesn't change his mentality, there will be a lot of sad mo fo s on this rant after a 10 & 2 or another 9 & 3. No way O goes 11 & 1 pussyfooting like he did at A & M.

I didnt know he was a tour guide, luckfully I had my passport renewed recently. I've never been to Iraq but the the Tigris and Euphrates is a beautiful piece of land. Count me in.

*promised

Yes!

*promised

He better get a hell of alot better at throwing the ball then. We will have an all time great LSU defense next season. I sure hope it isnt wasted like ot has been at LSU for the last 10-12 years now
