No don’t you see, that loss was Aranda’s fault. “O and E” clearly would have won that game if Aranda was a decent coach.

Now that's a bold prediction. I hope you're right on this one.

Eta: typo

Still waiting on comparison of Steve E's Offense to others

Right. And Jimbo is 16 and 10 in his last 2 seasons.

O is 19-7, what's your point? Will O be lucky to not lose 3 (or more) in 2019?

Edit - Jimbo is 14 and 10 in his last 2 seasons. And my point is that Jimbo is not the world-beater that the Negs make him out to be. He had a few good seasons at LSU and FL St. But he is just an average HC otherwise. A 4-loss HC otherwise.

I'm not sure he's gonna have quite those numbers, but I do expect a good season. As you said, he's got everything in place. I'm just not ready to say that this offense is gonna set records.

Burrow would need to nearly double his TD total from last year to come close to Russel in 2006 or Mauck in 2003.

I was happy to see us kick arse at the end of the year but the pass defenses they faced weren’t exactly elite/stiff competition

Arkansas-87
Rice-124
A&M-98

I hope they can continue to improve. We will need them too for the 2019 season

Running game should be better for sure next year.

Russel in 2006 posted the following stat line:

67.8% cmp. %
3129 yards
28TDs-8INTs

Burrow's 2018 stats:

57.8% cmp. %
2894 yards
16TDs-5INTs

He might throw for more yards, but I seriously doubt he comes close to the TD total or completion percentage. If Burrow posts Russel's 2006 stat line LSU wins the NC.

I guess the question is, is Burrow the limiting factor here or is Ensminger? I'd like to get Buckeye Jeaux's take on this.

You realize ed orgeron's greatest season ever is 3 losses right?
This year was only his second year ever with a winning record.

TD total isn't really that much of a reach. Completion pctg, that's going to be more difficult.

The Auburn loss in 2006 was what cost Jimbo some goodwill at LSU.

I'm comparing the "Holy Grail" of ball coaches, Jimbo Fisher, to the reality of what he actually did as OC at LSU.


Holy grail lol

Ok, why are you comparing numbers from 15-20 years ago?

Has nothing to do with today and F'n retarded to do so, unless you're trying to drive a particular narrative.

Doesn't matter if you're Pro SE or anti SE, this is dumb

If you're going to compare, do the numbers of E and fisher from 2016-2018.

points per play?
Yards per game?
Red zone efficiency?
3rd Down %?

While you're looking up those numbers, compare against miles/Cameron 13,14,15

Love to know how that compares.

If Jimbo, a championship winning OC and head coach, is just average, then what is O?

He’s 12 off. That’s a TD per game difference. It would be a huge jump.

And is, IMO, more important. Completing passes keeps your offense on the field and in rhythm.

It's a troll. This guy has it in his brain that the "haters" love and continually bring up Fisher when the only person bring up Fisher is Jeaux. It's an unfair comparison. Fisher is one of the best offensive minds in college football for the last 20 years. Ensminger has been coaching TEs and from what I've heard on the radio his input wasn't valued when Miles was here.

Means nothing.... or better yet isn’t critical.

If he has same number of yards, completion percentage and keeps ints at a minimum offense will be just as productive.


A guy can toss it for 300 a game and avg 1 td.
Likewise another can avg 180 and 2 tds passes per game

What’s the diff?
There isn’t one.

Offense success is measured in multiple ways but at end of the day it’s Tds scored... that’s really only thing that matters.
