It's been 1 scrimmage, and agian you have ZERO clue who even gave up 5 sacks. context actually matters even if you can't admit that.
Last in the SEC in sacks allowed in 2018. More trouble protecting the quarterback to start off fall camp in 2019.

"Context"
Not sure why you cant admit without any context of WHO gave up the sacks it's not that relevant. Do you think only the starters play in a scrimmage? I'm not saying you're wrong, but you absolutely are drawing conclusions on information without all the relevant context.

Magee is a mauler in the run game but pass pro has caused problems

I'm not sure what makes you think things reset every offseason. They don't.
Previous results matter, and I'm drawing conclusions from more than just a scrimmage. I'm not sure why this bothers you so much.
Here's a piece of advice that many of you need to accept: People are allowed to have different opinions than you.

I'm not sure how many times I have to repeat myself, we hear you, dawg, I am specifically talking about the very 1st scrimmage of fall camp, all we heard was "5 sacks were given up", they didn't say who, or what lines did that. Do you agree or not agree the context behind that can make a big difference, ie:
"The 1st team OL gave up 4 of the 5 sacks"
is a bit different than
"The 1st team OL gave up 1 of the 5 sacks"
I'm not having a different "opinion" than you, I agree the OL is the biggest question mark heading into this season, I'm specifically talking about you drawing conclusions on what you specifically said, which was well we still suck because we gave up 5 sacks in the first scrimmage.

Don't expect an honest answer. Theyre just here for the melt.

I thought the defensive line did very well today,” Orgeron said. "There were a lot of guys out on the offensive line of scrimmage that were not playing. Especially on the second team, a couple guys are hurt. So there were guys who don't normally play on the second team."

Well I'm not just talking about the 1st scrimmage. That's just the latest data point being used to evaluate the position group.
You're hung up because I pointed to the most recent results in a long string of results to come to a conclusion. That's your problem.

Your original comment only talked about the 1st scrimmage, and you even gave some context which we know, which was some guys relevant to pass rush were out, and the RPO offense is supposed to limit sacks getting ball out quicker, but also failed to think what about the context that was on the offensive line, like Oregeron NOT saying who gave up the 5 sacks, or him saying a few guys were missing off the 2nd team OL.
Again, do you agree or not the context there is extremely relevant in knowing things like how many pass plays were called, who gave up the sacks, etc...I dont think anyone is worried about what a few walk ons did on the OL, but the starting OL performance would have been nice to know about and actually given context to the conclusion you continuously are coming to.
The problem here is you only want to argue 1 side with only those side's arguments instead of admitting all facts into the equation.
I'll assume if you still cant answer my question for a third or fourth time you are just admitting defeat there through ignoring it continuously.

I hope not because that would be dumb
Btw: sacks in scrimmages are touches

No. The problem here is most people don't want to believe the offensive line may hold LSU back again.
I don't have a problem believing it because I watched them finish last in the conference in 2018, and I take comments like "most improved unit" from head coaches with a huge grain of salt.

I';m literally right there with you saying it's a huge question mark, stop trying to pretend like you're fighting a battle no one sees an issue with.

I guess since you still didn't answer my question for the umteenth time you are admitting that without the relevant information on WHO gave up the sacks coming to a conclusion on the 1st scrimmage is pretty dumb now on the OL pass blocking.

Glass half full types. You can't logically discuss anything because"historically bad" is always the answer.
Veteran group, new offense, I'll bet on some improvement.

Oh my bad. Was "I'm not using just the scrimmage stats" not clear enough for you?
Ok let me try again:

Having concern over the guard position isn’t my worry. It’s the tackle position.
Pretty much.
Guard seems solid, tackle is a question mark. Do think the offense will take pressure off the tackles though.

Your original post on the 5 sacks allowed only talked about the 1st scrimmage, you specifically mentioned the 1st scrimmage and only that and said the OL is still a huge issue based o nthat.
We all know about last year, everyone admits the OL sucked last year. We are talking about the scrimmage THIS year though and the context of the 5 sacks.
Again, why is so hard for you to admit WHO gave up the 5 sacks could vastly change a conclusion?
If it was only 0-1 by the 1st team OL are you saying that doesnt matter at all?
Sounds like you just made an assumption the 1st team OL gave up all the sacks and ran with it. I mean, it's possible, but it's also possible they played ok too, and 2nd team/walk ons gave up a handful of sacks, too. We dont know that, because the context of that information wasn't provided.

I think Charles will rebound this season. I'm still concerned about Deculus at RT.

The problems are at LG and RT, Charles will be good this year. We haven't figured out LG or RT to this point IMO.

He looks lighter. Hopefully that shows in his footwork
