We lost to Troy due to no talent but we just beat Florida in the swamp. What gives?

We have talent but a lot of it is young and we lack depth in key areas. This is indisputable.

Depends.... if you are Team O we have no talent
If you are against O we have talent


Based on recruiting classes I guess I am against O

Florida sucks too. Talent has never been the problem, effort has.

Talent deficiency is just an excuse.

Florida's offense is about as horrible as one can get. While the win is good, it's not nearly as good as people are making it out to be. The chances of that kicker missing an extra point are very very slim, almost flukish as a matter of fact. If we put together a mistake free game and are all on the same page this game isn't even close.

Prob a little better than UF but no QB. And def down on talent from recent squads.

Yes, but once that talent gets tired, the drop off behind them is significant.

Agreed but all that being said we have something to build on.

What are you, a retard? Three true freshmen and a red shirt freshman had to play, and none of the players on defense except for Devin White are as good as the players they replaced from last year. However, you're right, if coach O wasn't such a piss poor coach, his predecessor would have left him better players. Thus, it's all coach O's fault!

This team played markedly better as far as intensity

Do we have talent?

We let's see. 2 of our 3 best players played hurt (Guice & Lawrence). Key our 3rd best player is still playing back into shape

We played 3 Fr on the OL.

Our WRs are terrible

We played a walk on at LBs at times

We lost 16 players from last years team that were in NFL camps this summer.

Numerous high draft picks

5 of our top 6 pass catchers

We returned 4 sacks outside of Key this season

This team has pockets of talent but when you're dealing with 16 freshmen playing regularly and injuries to your best player, you're not going up be as good.

Well that's all coach O's fault. If he weren't such a piss poor coach, his predecessor would have left him better players. So therefore coach O is the source of all our problems this year.

You are being dishonest if you can't see we are lacking talent in the trenches this year. Name one other team in the top 75 that doesn't have twice as many offensive linemen on scholarship as LSU has right now.

Aren't you the one that said O will coach here for as long as he wants and it will probably be 10-15 years lol?

Well, if coach O wasn't such a bad coach, his predecessor would have left him better players. Thus, it still goes back to coach O as the source of all our problems.

Yeah, but after I realized that had coach not been such a piss poor coach, his predecessor would have left him better players. Thus, all the blame for piss poor play is all his fault. You know if you can't beat lunatics, become one yourself!
