To me it just seemed like a really big gamble to spend all that money and leave OL a ?


Davis starting tells you something about how the coaches feel at RT.

why is Bordelon the designated whipping boy? Honestly, I think he has played fairly well.


Davis still needs to improved, but he’s a LOT better than he was last year. He had a couple of really good blocks vs Clemson and faced their best DE on many snaps.

Don't get me wrong, I hope so, I think that the Clemson win will play out just like last year when it's shown that Clemson isn't any good and has no heart. They only beat GA S 22-7 last night

Bah came here with like 25 straight starts, I'm really surprised that we weren't more sure about what we were getting with him

Bah was absolutely atrocious.
Rewatch the game and focus on him and him alone, and you will literally either laugh your arse off or punch a hole through the television. We bring in a Big 10 lineman that wasn’t even All conference honorable mention and he’s struggling, go figure.

Davis has improved. He is another whipping boy. As I recall, he only played one year of HS football. He needs to continue to develop his footwork and a nasty attitude.

The prime OL candidates went to the NFL
There weren’t any. Texas got a LT but we got the best OL available in Seaton and Bah.

There's more than one OL position. Saying the OL is fine just because we spent alot on a LT is close to the dumbest shite ive heard in a long long time


That’s not at all what I’m saying… you claimed they didn’t put anything toward our oline

And any offense is only as good as it's weakest link.

2 games in, it's hard to say what the weakest spot is. There's a lot of contenders, including QB, RB, and WR.

But... I trust Kiffin to sort it out. He's an offensive genius, he should be able to get this put together by the end of the year.

That's technically true, it's also true that the LT and the C were the only guys really thought of as very quality starters. Our LG wasn't good enough to play on last years line, the RT was one of the worst graded Ts in LSU history maybe the worst. Bah did have 25 starts but looked like shite against Tech. To pretend that we addressed the OL the same way we did other positions is just fricking dishonest and to pretend that the OL isn't BY FAR the biggest ? Is also just dishonest. I hope they improve but if they don't they will be the reason we don't reach our goals

I wondered if there may have been a shortage of talent in the portal, if so that would be the answer I was looking for, we obviously went all out for Seaton once we knew he was available

Ole Miss runs a 4-2-5, same as Clemson and LSU. LA Tech ran a 3-3-5, and LSU probably didn’t put in a ton of effort to change what the OL would do. They thought their shite was gold after running all over Clemson.

Interior OL just needs to be more aggressive at the point of attack. There was a lot of hesitation due to confusion from La Techs defensive front 7's movement/alignment. If you're going to make a mistake in assignment make it at full speed. Just put a hat on someone. There were several times where Bo and Bahh just sat there and watched two guys go through because they were so confused on the front.
