Is not a certain degree of unpredictability a huge advantage for the offense?

Instilling doubt, confusion and indecision into the defense can make an offense much more difficult to stop. If so, why is the LSU offense so reliably predictable? Is CLM trying to set the table for the gumps? The loss to UF suggests otherwise.

Until last week, any pop Warner coach could defend Lsu on OF. Les did a better job of play calling last week. Lets hope it will continue.

Losing our entire offensive line is a huge strategy that has been in the works for some time now.

we run the ball because we have talented backs, a great defense, and a qb thats's about to play only his 7th game in college.
it's how you when in the sec.

when Mike Leech was putting up video game numbers with Harrell and Crabtree at TTech he did an interview and said they basically had four plays they based their offense off of to do what they did. Execution and talent is a LOT more important than unpredictability or play calling. Unpredictability is kind of like running gimmick plays. It may work occasionally, but you can't base an offense off it.

Well, if one has players that simply cannot execute plays, then play calling is perhaps a moot point, but you believe that keeping the defense guessing has no significant role in offensive success?

Unpredictability should always play a nice role though in your offense unless maybe you're just totally superior in talent and superior in execution.

I agree with this. Do not think LSU is good enough to line up and blow the other team off the ball when it knows what is coming.

And we're about to line up against a qb who's about to play only his 6th game in college and leading the SEC in offense and rushing.

You are confusing unpredictability with inconsistency.

I think you have blindly stumbled onto the truth. CLM is indeed setting the table for the Gumps. He is directing a maddeningly predictible, confused and ineffective offense for a reason.
CLM hates LSU and is trying to to everything he can to generate losses so that LSU will fire him and he can finally get the Michigan job.
If he loses to Alabama this year, which is his goal, the heat from rantardoes like you will be so intense that he will be fired in the locker room right after the game.
Thus freeing him to persue his dream job while at the same time giving jerks like you the ultimate mental orgasm.
You have to admire a plan like that.

This. Except, the word WIN. We are a powers run team and impose our will on teams. or we did until we lost 3 Olineman. People need to realize this.

Predictability and redundancy are also bad practice in posting on message boards.
