that there was zero creativity in the 2 weeks between MS State and Bama, zero. nodda, zip, zilch, not a single creative thought in the mind of our offensive coaches.

No. Rebuild.
We are a top 10 team, just the top 1 or 2 would be huge favorites.

Are they on pace to be one of the best defenses ever? No. I'd say the obvious answer to your question is yes. It is an absolute abject failure to get shut out at home.

You could have complained about literally any aspect of this team and this staff, and the Bama game would have confirmed your complaints.
I just think it's important to remember that this is the same offense that put 36 on Georgia.

Again
People like you continue to miss the big picture. I don’t know whether it’s ignorance or insanity. The offense overall ranks near the bottom of college football. We can have very good games and very bad games mixed in, but over the long haul, statistically we can’t win a championship with the level of offense we are producing.

This is correct.

Right, that's one game.
The offense's ranking says it's an abject failure.
For the offense to be that good vs UGA and that poor vs Bama defies logic, other than the conclusion that UGA was a fluke.

Regression to the mean
We are still capable of a great performance. But our offensive production when averaged over the season will lead to multiple losses because when we have a bad game it’s REALLY bad to the point where the defense has to score and be almost perfect.

Someone do me a favor.
Tell me which offensive looks or schemes work when you lose every down at the LOS.
Last time I checked, if you lose in the trenches, you lose the game.
We can save the "I told you our offense sucks" until after this is discussed.

Sans Georgia we have looked just bad
Even Georgia was somewhat misleading.
Defense set up some short fields and we moved the ball OK between the 20s. But the offense died as soon as we hit the red zone.
How many good drives (not short fields set up by D) ended in TDs that day?

Uhhhh. The offense ran I think 15 plays for 52 yards in an entire half against Hammond.

If you consistently lose the LOS, offense will have a bad day. SO yes, you have to win the LOS. LSU won the LOS against UGA (outlier), LSU has struggled in almost every other game.
This has been the story at LSU for years! What has been the constant? The offensive scheme! this is the exact same offense as Miles, only difference is more shotgun. If you are struggling at the LOS, then change your scheme to counter your weakness!

Like everyone else said, the anomaly was the UGA game, this O has been bad for YEARS and the numbers prove it. The D is what gives a lot of scoring opportunities and inflates the numbers. When has the O EVER won a game when the D was not playing well? I sure cannot remember that in recent history (10 or so years).
Here is the issue- Too many are focused on the result and not the "process". Even when Satan loses, he constantly finds ways to improve. Is he that way to a fault and a miserable individual? Sure, but we cannot keep saying, "well, we won, so no need to point out where we need to get better".
That is a loser mentality and not holding our HIGHLY paid coaches accountable will forever produce the results we have been seeing.
No HIGHLY paid coach is beyond criticism, either they find a way to maximize the talent they have (and how to get better talent), or get the frick out of here.

I think the more realistic question is whether the outlier game against Georgia somehow excuses the numbers in other games. I would also add that the offense was greatly aided by the defense against GA, as has been the case all year.
I guess I should have read to the end of the thread, since this sentiment seems to be obvious to most.

Orgeron does not have a fully developed personality that has the ability of introspection. Thus, he cannot see where he needs to improve and he blames others.

Sadly, that's correct. I knew it would take time for the offense to get going with the new OC and scheme as well as all of the new starters. The problem is that we don't see it trending better. Completion percentage is not improving. Consistency running the ball is not improving. Pass protection is not improving and run blocking is not improving. Red zone offense is not improving.
It's now 4 straight games without a passing TD and that includes the UGA game. 2010 when Jordan Jefferson was named starter was the last time LSU has gone 4 games straight without a passing TD.

I dunno man.
For all of our deficiencies in the trench, there is no excuse for not scoring a single point at home.
