I'd have to say play calling. I know Cam is good at what he does, but I'm not convinced that He and Les are confident enough in AJ to really open up the play book. I'm not concerned with MSU, cause I don't think they have the stones to beat us if we've come to win the game instead of not to lose it. Dak, my arse! Grinders, my arse! If the team comes to play and the play calls aren't candy assed, the game wont even be close. If we even come close to losing, it'll be self inflicted IMO. They have the best team they've had in years, sure. However, this is LSU. We have Bulldog on the menu every year. Any thoughts from thy brethren?

Off:3rd long after two straight toss dives.
Def:Our front 7 getting gashed like Wisconsin did us majority of game.

My concern is our rush defense right up the middle. I think MSU will hit that hard.

I get what you're saying, but I don't see Dak Prescott being able to throw his team on his back and just run shite.

Then your biggest concern isn't play calling - it's AJ's competence (or it's Mile's and Cam's incompetent evaluation of AJ). That would be the root of the problem, not play calling.

BTW, the coaches are doing a professional job of bringing AJ along at the proper pace. It reminds me of Saban bringing McCarron along his sophomore year. Saban protected him with Trent Richardson and a sturdy defense; didn't ask him to do much; then, when he absolutely needed him, he gave him the reins.

Mile's is risking losses with conservative play calling, but the alternative is risking losses by turnover. He'll only do that if he has to.

I worry most about our o line.

The play calling doesn't bother me as much. So many hoping for aggressive calls...what happens if he throws a pick or we throw three straight incompletions? Then everyone will be like "run the ball!"

Dak doesnt have the elusiveness that cam did. i see him being more tim tebow like. he has the build and leadership to put the team on his back. very nervous about this game.

Except for Tebow being surrounded by some of the most talent to ever put on a CFB uniform. Dak is a pretty good QB, he has a few weapons.

If we don't turn it over, establish the rush, and don't give up anything on ST, we will win.

With that said, enjoy another Miles Special...comin at ya.

If he gets the ball around Diarse or Dural...they'll catch it.
