re: I wonder how many teams are trying to copy LSU’s offense from 2019

Sure, just need 3 1st round WR, a 1st round RB, the best QB in college football.

Exactly. Brady lucked out having the best offensive line in the last 12 years at LSU along with FIVE #1 draft choices at skill positions, and a serviceable tight end.

You mean the 2 interceptions where they tried to complete over Stingley? Yeah that was an excellent coaching decision

Worked out well for Bama. Like Kirby said, it came down to execution.

None in the sense of running the same plays from the same exact formations. Ensminger is creative and always has been What they want to "COPY" is effectively a PRO QB situation where they have a graduate not being bothered by class room attendance or normal student activities for 2 full years coming to work with the coaches in the early AM and not leaving til late at night Notice UGA jumped into that game with a one year guy but LSU had Burrow to improve him 2 full seasons.

They also want a senior laden OL who have been in the weight room for years like LSU had. NFL style wr like LSU had and again the continuity of the OC. Those are the things all teams are trying to copy. Including LSU.

Burrow was the difference. LSU couldn't have ever run that offense before. LSU never had a Burrow or anything close. LSU has been stacked with rb's and wr's but never a competent qb in the passing game.

---

This is it. LSU was running an NFL style offense with and NFL QB and WRs. Burrow and the WRs made checks and route adjustments on nearly every play that allowed them to be efficient against any defense. That is what NFL QBs and WRs do. Not everyone can do that. If you ever wonder what a professional team would look like against a college team, look no further than last year’s offense at the end of the year bc that’s what it would look like.

Moss was more than serviceable.

It’s a relative term. Moss was not drafted. That is the NFL’s opinion of him. To compete for the college championship a team needs NFL talent liberally sprinkled all over the field. Auburn, with Cam Newton, is one of the few examples of a Championship team that did not have mostly NFL talent on the field.

The NFL - every single team - thinks Moss is not good enough to warrant a draft pick. I think he was extremely sure handed, was a decent blocker, and took advantage of the defenses’ attention being elsewhere. I call that serviceable. To say more shows admirable loyalty, but isn’t correct.

Burrow was the reason the offense was an all time great offense for sure but you don’t need a Burrow at QB for this offense to work. He just brought it up another level.

FIFY

As long as we keep our COPY of it around I dont care what the others do

I agree about the line except for that no one was doing them favors. But thing was, the run game was mediocre, the receivers were plain bad, not getting open and endless drops, and the line was doing awful. Everyone's to blame equally, joe is the one who was doing well despite no one helping him.

LSU didn't do a single thing schematically on offense that was new. They didn't reinvent the wheel. What LSU did was have a 1st round RB, 3 1st round WR's and the greatest QB to ever play the college game at least for one season.
