You want him to be all "Well, we're probably going to lose"?

The only thing that matters with this team is Saturday. Not next week not playoff selection time....next week. That needs to be the focus of everyone in foorball ops. Whether they don't or do make it none of that matters if this organization don't pour everything they got into Texas.

Got to keep your team motivated. Reminding them their back is still against the wall if they want to have a shot is important so that they don’t have a letdown performance. Speaking through the media to his team like Saban would.

I’m sure inside the building they’re not talking about that and focused on improving redzone conversions execution. Whether they actually will or not is left to be seen. Pretty far along in the season to expect drastic improvement though

Is it better to flame out in the first round of the playoffs, or make it to a good bowl game and win?
Be done with football December 19th, or play Ohio State in the Cheese It bowl on Jan 2?


To be honest, gimme the cheese it bowl. I don't like our chances against most of the current top 12.

It is not hard to believe when you look at his personnel alongside Leavitt is a one or two read guy. They have Green who gets doubled/tripled and then Harris. That's it. They don't have any big bodied guys outside 3 guys and Harris is not that big. The other guy can't even sniff the field probably for a reason.

Agree. Even if we win out, there's tie-breakers between Kentucky, Bama, and Ole Piss that we aren't on the right side of.

What Lane says depends on the types of questions he is getting as well.

Yeah talking about playoffs this week is retarded honestly. Beat Texas, and we can discuss next week how beating Tennessee ought to lock us in. Talking about playoffs when we have to get 2 top 10 wins while we haven't beaten a single one yet is annoying af.

So say you make in the playoffs in the 11 or 12 spot. Now you are on the road for the first-round game, and it isn't even a bowl game.

Nothing? Really?

You’ve seen NOTHING that makes you believe we can win a football game?

Some of you people are so fricking hellbent on being retarded that it isn’t even worth trying to engage with you ‘sky is falling and everything SUCKS’ retards

We definitely don’t deserve it. If the chips fall and we get lucky you’re damn right I’ll be excited however I don’t expect to win the whole thing. I’d be happy with just getting a CFP win.


Wouldn’t that be spectacular if we get another crack at Bama and knock them off at Tuscaloosa?! Similar to bama vs Oklahoma last season. Sooners beat them in regular season then bama got the last laugh.

One read and then take off QB, with receivers who don’t get separation. Along with a OLine that’s patchy at best. Not a great mix.

We have plenty of explosive players, they just don't put them in explosive situations. Also Leavitt misses guys wide open because of tipped passes or interceptions. The amount of tipped balls he's had when his target was wide open is the wildest I have ever seen for any QB ever. The dude is not Kyler Murray or Deigo Pavia small, but still gets balls batted doing at least once a game.

I’d rather he beat teams like Alabama and Ole Miss. The offense is a mess.

The playoffs for LSU is done; it's over

They have the 7th best odds to win the championship. The playoffs are still a possibility especially if Bama and UGA are the only 1-2 loss teams in the SEC.

Also, yall sound like a bunch of big puss in here over the offense. It's definitely something that will get fixed because Weis and Lane know how to coach offense

You are right. LSU isn't winning the next two games unless some serious changes are made in the offensive play book and calls. LSU has plenty of weapons but only talks about them, rarely uses them. They virtually do exactly what the D wants them to do....wasting a play or two running between the guards on 1st and or 2nd down. Never roll out and run or throw like the best teams just one look at a first option receiver than then throw it into a raised hand or helmet or scramble like a drunk sailor. Nothing clever like Bams inside fake end around untouched....our only play out of the ordinary in the game was the I formation pitch, and guess what, we scored untouched. But of course, we have a rule that you can only run a very successful play just one time a game....so we never saw that play again in the game.
I don't know what school of play devising and calling plays our offensive gurus went to, but they would do well to spend the offseason under the tutelage of the Utah OC. They have 1/2 the athletes and twice the offense LSU has. Yes, we can march down the field against 2 deep safties, but real offenses score points, not yards. Until major changes are made on offense and I mean major, LSU may not win another game...LSU is just too predictable and after an entire season of film, Arky can probably even figure LSU out. I am not optimistic we have the right staff, and until changes are made, I will need to be proven wrong, and you should be also. This is totally unacceptable on many levels.
