Did not realize we were missing our best back-end players. Pretty remarkable!

We’re playing within what we can do with a mediocre OL and a true freshman qb, this isn’t hard.

We had 3, probably 4, maybe 5 first round guys at the skill position last year FFS.



I just don't get why this is so hard for people to understand. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Y'all just be patient. This is a rebuilding year for us. We lost 30+ players from last years team. Today the team DID show improvement. I'm encouraged by that.

Excuses. Teams with less or comparable talent, experience run more creative offenses. Freshmen and RS frosh QB play in these systems.
Could Ensminger run some misdirection, a jet sweep, etc? No. He’s limited.


1) name a true freshman running a complex offense effectively. Clemson has the best talent in America, they are 1-1 with a true freshman. Very close to being 0-2. Struggled with Boston college.

2) jet sweep and misdirection is your definition of complex? ??

We had 3rd and shorts constantly that we converted. That's the point

Running plays have not been revised since early games. Nuttin, but I did like the pass to TDP coming out of the backfield. Should have been a TD.

I felt the same after the mizzou game. Same read formation over and over.

There are 3 players contending for offensive ROY, all from LSU. And that doesn’t even count the best receiver in the land that opted out. Execution! Kirby Smart told the media that LSU runs the same thing as everyone else, they just executed on a very high level. All of that is gone. All of it. It takes a shite ton of practice and snaps to get it back. Be patient.

The only reason we won today is because O and E didn't try to win with an 18 year freshman QB. They were smart enough to exploit Ark weakness there DO.

Masterful offensive gameplan. Had they listened to you we would be 2-4 instead of 3-3

frick off. This team has no experience and they are playing conservative to protect against that.



Don't waste your breath, most think throwing a true frosh QB to the wolves is ok.

Our offensive creativity is gone

We’ve gotta produce some big plays without asking Finley to do too much.


With Burrow LSU is 6-0

This is more on the players than coaching.

The culture of sports is changing with players opting out, leaving early for the draft and not playing bowl games to protect their draft status. Retention of players will become as important as recruiting for coaches.

In a given year a team like LSU will lose a dozen seniors, half a dozen juniors to draft and attrition of players that leave the program for various reasons {mostly lack of playing time or personal issues}

This 2020 LSU team basically doubled the number of productive players lost after a season.

This is more about the Jimmy & Joe's than on coaching.

With this said I do not like Bo
