I think we probably lose 3 more. Florida on the road is tough, Alabama is Alabama, and Ole Miss/A&M are really good teams. Arkansas is better than normal and we always struggle. I think the games will be more aesthetically pleasing, but the results will be pretty much the same.

I really think that this new energy and offensive "change" will dominate the remainder of the year. Remember before the season when everyone thought the offense was going to be different...and that was the justification for being national contenders. Well now it appears it will actually be different.

LSU can finally be what we thought they would be.

Except we can't create a new offense during the middle of the season. The offense won't look that much different hopefully the production and play calling will be better

LSU doesn't have a Qb to do that. I know people don't want to hear it, but LSU has an incredibly tough schedule the rest of the way. I just don't see them doing any better than 4-4. I'll give them Mizzou (and I wouldn't be surprised if they lost that one), S. Alabama, and Southern Miss, but @ UF, @ Ark, and @ A&M will all be very very tough. We all know how good Ole Miss is, and Bama is Bama.

8-0, SEC championship win, Playoff berth, NC.

Anything less won't do.

I dont think we will be "creating" a new offense. Simply running our offense under a system that works.

We have short, middle and deep pass plays.
We have inside, outside and misdirection running plays.

When used accordingly the offense will function.

Having position coaches actually be allowed to determine the on-field personnel will go a long way.

There are so many little things that are said to have changed and IF they actually change...this team will be noticeably different.

I think we'll know a lot more tomorrow.
We have the talent to run the table. We face a lot of obstacles. But I'm gonna remain cautiously optimistic.

Flip Ole Piss and Arkansas. Arky is not nearly as strong as the former.

We found out that Brandon Harris wasnt who we thought he was. I think Etling really has surprised a lot of us..for the better.

He can play well enough the manage the game. We dont need him to go out and be superman. As long as he isnt forced into obvious passing downs/situations and can just execute our offense then we can win. And im not saying that he cant execute in obvious passing downs either.

Our offense was just so freaking predictable under miles.

EX: Guice comes on the field, lines up at wide receiver and goes in motion...you know hes getting the hand off.

EX: D. Williams comes in and lines up at fullback in a short down situation. You KNOW hes getting the hand off.


Serious question, Has our offense ever lined up in shotgun with 3 wide, LF7 and Guice in the backfield on each side of the QB?


Just a little creativity with our skill guys could be a match up nightmare! Our skill guys are so underutilized, its frustrating.

5-3 or 4-4 (against my better judgement)

Who knows - maybe there will truly be a spark but we have the same players that we did last week. O line getting their sh*t pushed in, secondary was ho-hum. Couple that with a semi injured LF7
