if Kirklin, Palmer, and Boutte are burners LSU need to find ways of getting them the ball besides a pass. If they run the same game plan used against Mizzou on Florida, Graham is going to make things very uncomfortable for Brennan.

Florida has given up more pass yards than anyone we've played.

Their defense is about as bad as ours.

True!
But they rank 5th in 3rd down conversions on offense....LSU is 75th
Yikes

So, the OP is right, they have to get creative in the run game...also flip the script on 3rd play calling .

Take a gander at their third down conversion rate on defense.

FWIW, I agree with OP, we have to establish a running game, I just find it funny that people keep assuming we've played the worst defenses in the SEC so far.

They need to watch film of how the 49ers get the ball in the hands of guys like Deebo Sammuel and Bradnon Aiyuk. They give them end arounds but its never predictable.

Yes - it does need to get more creative.

I'd love them to get creative and put Marshall, Gilbert, Emery and your choice of Kirklin/Boutte/Mcmath on the field and saying you are our guys go score points.

Offensive issues are situational. Use Emery early in the drive via run or pass and 3rd down issues could be reduced by down and distance. Keep those guys on the field, prevent substitutions, and let them work.

They’re 75th

LSU can’t convert on 3rd...they allow everyone to convert on 3rd...

an unstoppable force meets an immovable object
