but their play don't look like ours.....So what is he saying? I think he means our recognition of the weak spots and miss matches is the difference, not the play called..does anyone have a different take?

Also our quarterback is 10 times more intelligent via audibling, read progression, knowing whether to take the run on the option, etc.

He really meant to say "We got our arse beat and I still don't know what just happened."

He’s not only coaching like it, he’s officially speaking like Les Miles now.

Burrow is uncanny at ID'ing the weak spot and exploiting...he may have just not targeted open players only 10 times all year...and threw it to others for completions anyway...

The separation our WRs get helps as well.

Other teams do not have these abilities against premier talent...bama under Tua is closest...
Ehlinger was a bit fearless.

Clemson is close, but TLaw has a tendency to stare his prime target down, his arm and excellent receivers cover up for his matchup selection. Clemson WILL take tons of downfield shots.

I think what he means is simple.

He doesn’t have the guys that LSU has executing the plays. Alot of people don’t realize how good our trio of receivers are.

He was going through the "bargaining" stage of grief

nope, they lost the playoff and were ranked in the same place they were this year when we beat the crap out of them; #4.

He said it before that game also. Pretty much said LSU isn't inventing rocket science as far as football goes they just have the horses to execute it better than anyone else.

After the game in his interview, Joe Brady said the same exact thing.

2 1/2 minute video - GEORGIA HEAD COACH KIRBY SMART EXPLAINS THAT THE TIGERS AREN'T RUNNING SPECIAL SCHEMES OR PLAYS, THEY ARE JUST EXECUTING WITH HIGHLY EFFICIENT PLAYERS.

I think he's saying that his X's and O's are the same as ours but our Willies and Joes are better. Especially the Joes.

No baw, Georgia lost to Bama in the CFP championship. Jalen Hurts got benched for Tua and rallied them to the win.

He means horses boss. You have 3 NFL caliber receivers, a Heisman winning first pick worthy QB, a TE capable as a receiver and a blocker, and a running back that is equally dangerous running routes and running the ball.

They may have the same plays buried somewhere in their playbook but they don’t commit to them. Both in practice and in game.

Same issue we had under les. Spend 90% of your offseason practicing running plays and 90% of first downs running the ball bc it’s easy and you know it’ll work against 9-10 teams you play.

But those two games a year where the runs on first and second down are stuffed you haven’t really practiced the passing concepts. Even though you “have” them.

It’s why the secret playbook stuff under Miles and O’s early tenure was so retarded. If you have an elite offense you unleash it week one and roll. You don’t look like shite and save your explosive passing for your top ten matchup
