Some real talk here: our offense sucks at scoring efficiency

How does it going about getting fixed?

We aren't winning the biggest games by kicking all the field goals with this Jim Mora-esque offensive philosophy.

We have found much success in winning the turnover battle. That cannot be counted on in a game-to-game preparation.

How do we get better from here? Eight games in, isn't this who we pretty much are for this season? Why would it magically improve now?

I'd start by calling non hb dives or qb draws once they get in fg range

It was obvious to me (and even the announcers) they didn't care about scoring tds as much as the guaranteed 3 in that specific game setting

I don’t care about stats. W’s is what matters at the end of the day.

Can you speak on your prediction that LSU would get routed by state?

Holy frick. I felt like it was the way to go. You just needed a W E called good plays and then we got more conservative once in FG range because that’s all we needed. Don’t read too much into it

We can move the ball until we get into the red zone. Then no clue what to do.

I think they do what’s necessary. Getting points on every possession. And last night that was enough. Against Georgia that was enough.

Well stats plus turnovers lead to wins, so I think you should care.

I thought last nights redzone woes were more due to weather than philosophy. A 3pt lead over the dogs last night might as well have been a 30pt lead. They couldnt score.

Rouge is a loser who will keep making negative predictions about LSU until he gets one right. He’s dying for something negative to happen to LSU football.

You said LSU wouldn't be able to stop the run. What happened?

We scored 36 on UGA last week. This week they were conservative in the red zone because it was a wet field and points were at a premium.

Nothing to see here,move along.

My thoughts as well. I didn't care for the 3rd and 6 play where we through the 3 yard out route at the sideline. But, I understood playing for FGs on the 3rd and longs. It was obvious that State wouldn't be able to score.

No, still don’t care.
A win is a win and all that matters at the end of every game is a win.
