Can/ should we reset expectations?
Posted by Mike Honcho on 8/2/20 at 10:07 am121
This morning I was watching the game Georgia game from 2018 which is seen as joe’s first signature win. They were #2 at the time and he played really well. I was shocked when I saw his stat line was 15 of 30 for 200 yards and no passing touchdowns (2 TD on the ground). I realize now that this kind of game is what I would have considered good two years ago but now seems so mundane.
Has 2019 spoiled us forever into thinking QBs should always average 350 yard and 4 TDs per game?

Did you also notice the difference in the 2 offenses? They were completely different schemes.

Never expect what we saw last season
With that being said.. if we have changed our offense.. I think a fair expectation is around 250 with 2 TDs

If you’re expecting Brennan to be Burrow you’ll be disappointed. He’s got a ton of ability. He’ll be fine. But he just needs to do him and not try to be Joe Burrow. He’s following up the best season by a college quarterback EVER.

Of course it’s obvious it’s a different scheme. My question is will we ever feel comfortable watching an average QB again?

I’d love to hear someone on here tell me that they’ve seen another coach abandon the run faster than Smart did that day. It was weird.

The yardage/TD totals can be reasonably maintained, obviously not record levels, but the key thing is that our passing game shouldn't be thought of as a hindrance anymore.

The main thing you (we) need to realize is that Myles will not be able to save the day like Joe. That huge throw to JJ against Georgia, the same kind of scramble against Oklahoma etc.
What we can reasonably expect of Myles is to make good decisions, be consistent with hitting the slants/bread and butter plays, and being able to lead the offense

Those are the best plays. When the other team does everything perfectly and has him dead to rights and he still takes it and turns it into a 50 yard play. Those are the plays that break the confidence of the opponent. Joe didn’t do a lot of those in his first year but he did last year.
I think Brennan will be able to do those if he can achieve a high level of confidence in his abilities like joe had. Brennan isn’t a green freshman anymore. He is entering his 4th year in the program and was in every meeting with burrow and Brady last year. He is chomping at the bit to show he can do it.

That is the reason I am predicting great things from Brennan.
Burrow was, "Ordinary Joe" in 18, then the offensive scheme was changed. In addition, throwing to Jefferson, Marshall, Chase, Moss and Helaire, was completely different than throwing to the 18 group.

While the D of 2019 was good enough, I expect 2020 to be much better. The only real question is LB and we should be fine there as well. D line fixing to eat and a rotation which doesn't lose anything

I don’t think he abandoned the run. They had some big plays up the middle to start the game, Aranda adjusted, we stuffed the run and then they tried to pass on first down the next drive, which was incomplete, and led to two more passes afterward for a quick three and out.
One drive doesn’t mean they abandoned the run.

I have always expect LSU to win any game LSu have been in the game even in 21 to 3 Lenornd almost broke a few long runs and their one touch down should have been called back with three or four holds

Expectations are like opinions they are yours and don’t let anyone tell you other wise!

I just always expect 10 wins.
