re: Breiden Fehoko says LSU’s defense shut out the offense in Saturday’s scrimmage

It's a gift. But seriously, all this hype coming out has me more optimistic. I mean Coach O and Coach P wouldn't be putting all this out if we were in for another disappointing season right guys? Coach O took over a program in need of an overhaul and he's done a great job of totally changing the direction of our program

He's being sarcastic.

Lets see: New QBs, new RBs, new WRs, new OC . . .

in the spring vs a stacked Aranda defense. Shocking.

Well, to be fair, the new OC has been on campus for a few years, including interim OC just 2 years ago, so he knows the personnel.
Brennan and some of the WRs had playing time, there should be some rhythm with at least one guy.

This isn't a stacked Aranda defense just yet, as we have about the same depth in the secondary as we did last season on the O-line.

None of this means anything yet, but I do hope to hear that the passing game is able to produce at some point.

Sure is

The personnel that we have on both sides of the ball up front, and the size, speed and ability of our line backers and DE’s. You might want to take a look, more talent up front than we’ve had in years and line backers aren’t 6’1 / 190 anymore. Look at the depth and size and you may get your answer

Travonte Valentine and Frank Herron unblockable

Yeah, they obviously haven't opened the playbook for the last 5 years or so. I am assuming that they are waiting for Saban to retire before showing their hand. Last year people told me that we didn't throw a slant against BYU because we didn't want to show the offense if it wasn't needed. Why do they show all of the running plays early on, since that is what the team does best? Seems like making easy throws, like a basic slant just for timing would be beneficial. I don't think a slant should be tucked away in a secret section of the playbook. Not showing a playbook is severely overrated, as you can't get better at things unless they are practiced in game situations. Misdirection and formation changes should be implemented throughout the year and maybe 1 or 2 "trick" plays per game. The basic passing game should be utilized every game, because game time repetition is the only way to perfect the craft. Look at the Patriots, Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson, and so on, and understand that they do not remain vanilla until they can't be. You need to be comfortable with aggressive/ creative playcalling, so it is a strength when it is needed. Teams that only use aggressive playcalling only when down several touchdowns never find rhythm and are usually not successful. This play not to lose concept has to go, as it has proven to be unsuccessful over and over again.

we haven't seen fehoko perform at all in an LSU uniform. He had three sacks total at tech. I don't want to crown this dline the greatest in LSU history before they play a game. its funny watching yall crown players and units before any game has even been played. slow down on the praise you stupid frick and let them show out then give them praise.

Also the defense is in year 4 with Dave Aranda opposed to the offense who is learning the 3rd offense in 3 years under a coach who is still tweaking with his playbook.

Logic is not welcome here.
Only O and E hating allowed.

Exactly this is probably the most talent LSU’s ever had on the front 7
