Hey dipshit

Briles the OC got hired at FSU and Applewhite got fired cause he’s a shitty coach with the worst defense in the country and no offense of his own.

Are you so fricking dumb that you don’t know Briles isn’t the HC at Houston?

Facts are facts and Briles is no great OC based on coaching at Houston, FAU, or in the no defense league of the

Don't the "facts" show he produces a top 10 Offense at every stop he's been OC?

You say he isn't good because they lost to

But in those games the offense put up 49 pts.

Yet you have determined that by doing poorly in one bowl game it is a "fact" his offense can't play a good defense. That's a bit absurd don't you think?

Ensminger is great because we beat Miss St 19-3 when the defense gave us the ball inside the fricking 5

I'm not even going to get in to all the shite that's wrong with our offense this year, but people thinking one game proves anything about Briles ability to coach QBs and an offense is just moronic.

If someone wants to take a "wait and see" approach I could get that. Maybe he won't do as well in the acc against Clemson. Who knows, but saying the bowl game last night is THE reason he sucks is just short sighted. It's so weird too because I don't think they dislike Briles as much as they just want to prop up E. Briles is just the example they are trying to use (poorly) to prop up our poor Offensive performance this year.

No. You dumbass. I swear you are the poster child for the idiocy which the Rant is known for. You are the consumate "ranter".

You and idiots like yourself seem to believe that a coach has some magic fuking playbook which can cure LSU's problems. LSU would not fare any better vs. BAMA (WHICH IS WHO WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH) with Briles and probably do worse than 9-3 (9 points and a screw job from being 11-1). Orgeron inherited a rough situation at LSU. Miles had not recruited well on either line and this is where LSU is getting beat by BAMA.

There is no way to outscheme getting your arse beaten physically at the Line Of Scrimmage. There is only 1 way to fix that and that is by recruiting more and better DLs and OLs. This is exactly what Orgeron is doing and nitwits like you who think there is just an easy fix by hiring another OC are just demonstrating your lack of knowledge of what LSU's problems truly are and what the required fix actually is.

I am finished talking about this. If you want to dream go ahead.

No. The stupid "take" is by numbnuts like yourself who are actually impressed by an offensive coordinator rolling up points on Texas Southern, SMU, Tulsa, Tulane, Navy, and losing to Temple and Texas Tech among other light weights.



I mean we scored 31 vs SELA. Not bashing, that's just a fact.

What do you think about that type of offensive output? We're a superior team to Houston yet we score fewer points vs the same level of competition.

No I don't think anyone really believes that and I think everyone acknowledges our o line was bad this year. Really bad. However our o line is not the only problem on offense we had this year. Some of it was coaching related.

1) you don't know this. You're just speculating and not really doing it based off any facts (just the army game I am guessing).

2) the number to beat against Bama is zero. An OC would have to put up 1 pt in 8 quarters to be better against Bama than E. Again this is just speculation on your part that we wouldn't do any better, but I think it wouldn't hurt based on our current results with E vs Bama.

3) last year we actually out gained Bama on offense. That was with Canada who had less talent to work with than E did in 16. So I have a hard time believing that an OC who has had top ranked offenses at every stop wouldn't be able to at least score one point in 8 quarters with LSU talent.

While it's true we need better line play it's not the only problem our offense had this year and not all the problems were player related either. That's the part you seem to just ignore or deny. I give Orgeron a ton of credit for this class. If he gets another guy like Ish or another day lineman its gonna be great. However, you can't beat Bama on talent alone. They have more talent/depth than we do. Beating Bama requires creative game planning and play calling as well. I haven't seen that from our OC yet. It's my biggest complaint about E. He typically had a good game plan for the first half, but when the defenses adjusted to it he never really seemed to have an answer.

I just don't get why E is above fair and rational criticism but Briles is somehow a shitty OC based on one bowl game performance. You keep calling people rantards and dumbass but you're not being completely honest about our own offense.

There definitely are ways of doing it and good OCs find those ways.

You think Baylor had a good OL when they started those high powered Offenses.

They were shite had been for years.

So starting QB isn’t relevant in scoring points?

QB is the most important player in any offense.

You’re a fricking moron.

“His” offense has been successful at Houston, FAU, and Baylor.

But losing your QB doesn’t help any offense.


Missing players is only a valid excuse when O loses to Troy. Other teams are expected to overcome them.

Why is this on the rant? Head Coach Edward Orgeron believes OC Ensminger is doing a tremendous job.

Yes I do. I will like it more when our oline can put the same 5 on the field for more than 3 games a season. There are no cheat codes for that madden punk

How many OL were injured after Ole Miss?

1.

Charles started 9/12 games
Cush 12/12
Lewis 12/12
Deculus 10/12 at RT.

The first moth was a mess, but we were also playing southeastern, La Tech and Ole Miss

So we are I guard away from a trash offense?

You like an offense that can’t score TDs and can’t throw the ball?

I remember the last time FSU hired an up and coming OC. Worked out pretty well for them.

Did it?


Are you suggesting that Fisher didn't have a great stint at FSU as their head coach?

Fisher was 83-23 and 5-2 in bowl games with a national championship in his 8 years at Florida State. Granted, his last year there sucked, and since he was the head coach, the majority of the blame falls on his shoulders. But sometimes bad shite happens.

And since he has to shoulder most of the blame for that bad season, he should get most of the credit for those other 7 years, where his teams won 78 games and only had one year where his team didn't win at least 10 games.

It's funny to listen to some of you guys go on and on about Fishers last season at Florida State, which was bad, but totally disregard the rest of his time (which probably 90% of all college football fans would love to have) as their head coach.

Then you are critical of an LSU coach who goes 9-3 while playing in the toughest division in college football. One who has wins over Georgia, Auburn, Mississippi State, and Miami.


Georgia (11-2) was a very good win. Kudos to o, the coaching staff and the team for a great win.

Mississippi State (8-4) was a decent win. Although the offense didn't do much of anything. Particularly in the first half. LSU may have been fortunate that State's offense was worse than ours.

Auburn (7-5) and Miami (7-5)...

so every team that's not physically dominant than their opponent on the OL will lose a lot of games? Nonsense.

A good OC can craft an offensive scheme that maximizes his teams strengths while minimizing its weaknesses. And also take into account his opponents' strengths and weaknesses. If we're bad on the OL, spread out the defense and get the ball out of the QBs hands quickly. Get the ball outside to playmakers in space - don't try to pound it if we're weak up front.

It's called gameplanning. And it's not rocket science. Coaches get paid millions and allegedly work 20 hours a day and sleep in their office. What exactly are they doing?
