Alabama and Georgia have big physical lineman on both sides of the ball. Arkansas has a solid line. It’s time for LSU to put Kardell Thomas in the starting lineup and add some physicality to their game. It’s time to return to the days of old when LSU was known for being physical and powerful and dominating. Time to recruit and play the players who are road graders. Time for a return to the path of iron man football.

You don’t just become physical with a shake up.

This thread isn't going to go as planned. He isn't even a top 9 lineman currently.

I saw Thomas on the sideline. I pointed him out to my buddy because of how fat he is.

Being fat doesn't make you physical.

It takes years to recruit and develop a great OL. It will take us years to get there absent transfer portal or junior college players.

And yet fans are complaining about the offense can’t run the ball. Can’t protect in passing downs but yet they should stick with the current starters. Time to make changes to see what will give a spark to this team. Competition will either light a fire ?? under some or ignite another given an opportunity.

IF you think this solves the OL problems you havent been paying attention.

You really think if Kardell was any good right now they wouldn't try him out? We've literally played like 11 different Olinemen this season already.

Charles Turner should be at the back of the dog house. He probably cost us the game with his goal line penalty on 4th down.

There’s a reason why Thomas isn’t starting. He looked out of shape. Sopsher and Thomas haven’t played any meaningful football, because they both suck.

I know a shakeup is needed. If you don’t think so then wait and see. The QB can’t keep taking physical hits, the running backs need a lane to run through. Fans can voice their opinion as much and as often as they want but to understand the position of a lineman then you better have knowledge and experience at that position or your just another talking head.

His idiot coaches forced a timeout right before that due to their inability to make a play call in a timely manner. Completely kills the flow of the offense.

Well, there is some precedence with this staff. They continue to trot out TDP when it’s apparent to anyone with eyes that Kiner is a better back.

Only thing Kardell is road grading are the people in front of the buffet line. Dude looks like he weighs 400 lbs. I doubt he could finish a series much less a game.
