LSU became a soft program under Kelly. Soft culture. TCU & USC were knocking the crap out of each other tonight.

Could not agree more. Say what you want about Miles, but his teams had "chest'.

This past year was THE softest OL I have ever seen at LSU

When you don't hit in practice, you can't hit well in games (but you suffer less injuries at practice).

USC lost because Atleast 3 defenders didn’t put forth full effort or try to wrap up tackling a RB on 3rd and long in overtime , when the other team was playing for a game tying FG, and let him run in for the game winning touchdown.

Probably the softest football play I’ve watched all year.

It was obvious from year one. Our much hyped OL the first two years could never block or move a DL backwards. No one noticed it because Jayden Daniels was so good at improvising and made our stats look like we could run the ball. This is how you can use stats to lie about your program.

It is also evident that the SEC is not as tough as we would like to think.

Football in general at the HS and below level is getting soft. Go to a HS or even middle school game and you’ll see an awful lot of arm tackling and lineman pushing/shoving instead of hitting. Coaches aren’t allowed anymore to run the Oklahoma or the bull in the ring.

Kids simply aren’t being taught contact at lower levels anymore.
