If we do, it will be to throw the defense off and set up the shotgun spread
Lane Kiffin did it to us all the time

After we jump out to a double digit lead in the second half, I would love to see Coach O trot Carter out there to lead block for a steady stream of fresh backs until those fricksticks from Texas are laying down just so they can get a play or two of rest.

Yes you can but there is still a time & place for the I formation. That's short yardage & goal line. Even the team the current offensive system is based off (Saints) uses I formation & a fullback occasionally. If you watch enough college games week in & week out, you see so many spread teams fail in short yardage situations trying to run the ball because it simply takes a fraction of second longer to run from shotgun/pistol especially when the defense is packed in tight to stop the run.
Exactly my thoughts. I’m not saying we should go I formation on 1st down or anything but when we need 2-3 yards, I think it still holds value.

Cant do shotgun all year

You don’t need to run I formation to run the ball so no.

I would run some I on short yardage, but LSU has dominate the LOS with more power than these boot licks have ever felt no matter what!

We will def run some I formation w Joe under center. Bookit

There is something to be said for the late clock eating drive to put the game away. If we have a big lead late and get the ball with 6 min left, I wouldn't mind seeing us in the I-formation grinding out 1st down after 1st down.

I think you will see either tony carter in as an extra back/te and we will run some lead blocking plays out of the spread. I also look for some counters out of this formation and some play action to the HB/Te out of this formation. I believe this is how they will get our power running game going.
