re: LSU has more to contend with now then ever before.

Correct. Penn Sate is not a great team. Weak secondary, LBs weak at pass coverage, poor special teams, and a less than stellar HC, WRs that cannot separate and a QB who cannot work progressions.

Nil has made BK’s job a lot harder

If we are going down that rabbit hole, we MOST LIKELY don’t have JD If we didn’t have BK. Those dominos are the same as people saying Ed O was horrible, although without him, we never would have had Burrow.

See how this goes?

That being said, my jury is still out on BK’s long term effect on the program. But I do feel confident in keeping us at a decent level, can he with the Ship? We shall see, but you have to be good and lucky at the same time!
