Posters claiming to have seen the scrimmages, bemoaning how bad the offense looked.

We were warned. Orgeron said as much tonight, they weren't going vanilla, that's what they can do.

Aranda will have his work cut out for him keeping this team in games during conference play.

Multiple saying Burrow was slightly above average too, but noooo you can’t speak I’ll of the Savior and his >50% completions in 2 games! That man is a GOD!

To be fair, I don’t think O would admit to being vanilla. He would be an idiot if he did.

Goddamn.. the sky is falling people are so fricking annoying. They didnt want to go high flying and give Auburn all the tape they needed. I mean, wasnt that obvious to yall? I don't even like Orgeron as our head coach even a LITTLE BIT but the win-loss column is all that matters. Him and E felt like it was the best course of action to get to 3-0. Just take simple steps in your head to figure out why the offense was so vanilla. It's obvious. Like super obvious.

I saw one scrimmage during camp. It was ugly.

It was hard to tell if the O was that bad or D was just that good.

Even if Burrow is only above average, thats not the problem

The problem is we have a poor offensive scheme with a shaky offensive line. The WR's for some reason cannot get open

There is just too many problems to offset

Without Aranda, we may have lost tonight. That's a very sad and unsettling thought to have

Hell slightly above average is what LSU fans have wanted for years. Burrow isn’t bad at all, our Oline may be bad, but Burrow is not the problem.

I know sometimes this is said in jest... and often in all seriousness. I really don't understand the principle.

There are 2 things you want your opponent to get from watching your film:
- things you do that they fear pose matchup problems
- make them prepare for, spend time/resources on

"secret playbooks" do neither. Besides, shite don't change year over year that much. Les's film in 2012 looked the same in 2015. Just like Gus'.

They had no problem getting open last week against a much better secondary. Tonight was all on the o line. When you have to max protect and only send 2 receivers out, it's going to be hard for them to get open. They're basically both double covered.

The defense was great, especially since it wasn't at full strenth.

Miami was either running a lot of zone coverage. SELU was straight man to man and they won more often than they lost.

This is what happened. Not many qb's and wr will look good on two receiver routes with CB and safety coverage. Burrow was also telegraphing those throws.

The most alarming thing of the night was how badly the o line got worked. They keep that shite up and conference play will really suck.
