I don't see Bama scoring 40 on us next year. They'll be lucky to get half that. But unless we improve dramatically on offense, 20 will be plenty to beat LSU.

Nope. We need to be As good or better in the trenches. See 2010 and 2011. We had shite qbs both years

Yeah, I'm a critic of the qb quite a bit, but our O-line got their shite handed to them the last three regular season games.
Didn't even look like our guys belonged on the same field with Bama's big uglies.

2010 Bama front 7 wasn't nearly as good as what they're returning. And I don't like to think about 2011.

lacks confidence



I'm curious why a guy is still starting if he lacks confidence at this point of his career.
Is the qb cubbard at LSU really that bare?

I think Brandon will shine next season. Effectively, this past year was his first. They say the biggest improvements happen between year 1 and year 2. They also say that in the context of team performance from the 1st to the 2nd game.

I can't wait.

In the middle we were fine. Hawkins and Alexander looked like garbage..especially pass blocking... In all 3 losses.

He shores up those short/medium throws and gets a lil more comfortable running the read option stuff then look out

I'm going to beat the dead horse. Confidence is his flaw but it is a great one. I don't think he has what it takes to lead a team to a championship.

You are correct, sir, with one caveat. You beat them by letting your Brandon Harris-type QB play like a Brandon Harris-type QB. (Hint: we don't do that.)

Ah geesh... this again.

I refuse to believe our offensive linemen woke up the morning of the Alabama game, and collectively decided to not try hard.

When a quality opponent knows your limited playbook, to the hole/gap... WHAT you're going to run, WHEN you're going to run it, WHERE you're going to run it, HOW you're going to run it, then, that enables them to beat you to the punch. Our offensive linemen were doomed in that game before they took the field.

It's just that simple. He can beat the lesser teams but looks totally lost against the good ones.

I've said this 100 times. I hope he can turn it around because he does have the tools.

Na no Johnny 5. My cousin called me that as a play on my number that I wore since I was about 10.
