why? this is 100% 20/20 hindsight and you are delusional if you think the same people wouldn't be bitching if SE ran for 150 and scored 38 which is also possible

Maybe so. But I think his run threat was a more sure bet going into the game than his ability to throw so many perfect well-defended passes, don’t you?
There’s no way you or anyone else could’ve known that leading up to the game.

These same people are blaming LSU for the Florida loss and they rushed for 215 as a team. How would it be received if Ehlinger rushed for 150 on his own?
This is not even getting into the fact that rushing for that type of yardage shortens the game and takes possessions away from LsU’s Offense.

Because it allows him to criticize Aranda, even though O had a hand in the defensive game plan.

Of course. I stated all week he was a better runner than passer. I'm sure everyone die looking at the UGA game.
I'm not down on the defense at all.

he could be referring to Notre Dame or Florida as well
The Notre Dame game where we had a CB miss a tackle AND our safety who was supposed to provide help over the top also missed a tackle? What exactly was Aranda supposed to do different?
but we can talk about the Florida game where our offense scored 19 points got the ball back twice needing only a field goal and scored -7 points.

why I think the scheme sucked and execution was poor (eyes on QB and out of position players
This just isn’t correct at all
we had players in the right position frequently and they failed to make a tackle. Posted on 9/13/19 at 10:21 am to Srobi14

Ok, Lawerence wasn't a running threat, that's kind of an irrelevant take.
Have you watched Lawrence play? He can make plays with his feet when needed.

And that was certainly was a case of just exceptional man beaters and great throws in very tight coverage.
But Ehlinger wasn’t? I’m now convinced you didn’t watch the game.

Texas couldn't stop us if the blitzed or dropped back...terrible point
Modern offenses have ways to attack both.
Realistically the only way to slow down these offenses when they are on is if you can dominate the LOS with your front four, and we really can't do that.

Yeah. Completely destroying your point is terrible.

Wow!
Those 30-40 defenses didn’t play a top 10 team on the road. Some of our fans just bitch because it’s Friday

Don't make it look like I said that nonsense

Ehlinger is going to continue to prove this wrong. The dude is a good quarterback.

Yep, Delpit missed a few that truly surprised me.
Also, there was one long touchdown where a healthy Fulton probably makes the leaping interception but he failed on his jump...or he simply misjudged the ball. And there was one where the defender had great position, but Ehlinger just made an even better throw. So, the defense was there and just couldn't make the play and/or their players just made a better play.

The best you can do on d is make very tight windows and confusion for a good qb. Sometimes they beat you and Ehlinger did on some plays but he isn't Payton Manning, we gave him too much and that is about all I have to say about that.

My bad.

We couldnt stop A&M when it counted. We need to be able to get a stop when we need it to close out a game. And we couldnt.
So just completely forget the rest of the game or the offense shitting the bed or the punt returner shitting the bed.

Based on what exactly? Define the metric and formula you’re using to make this claim and then list the 30-40 better defenses in the country.

This is exactly what happened Saturday.

And it makes you look clueless. We took away what everyone seems to agree is his biggest strength, and he made some absolutely great throws to guys that had defenders in position.

LSU gave him small windows for most of the night.

No, he’s more like Tim Tebow or Cam Newton, which is harder to defend at the college level.

You can post this 1000 times if you want, it’s still wrong.
