Actually, they were right for ONE GAME. I don't think Georgia thinks are offense isn't good enough.

5 field goals..Our Red Zone offense was shite.




and it takes more than one game to accumulate this


Total Offense-12th
Passing Offense-12th
Rushing Offense-10th
Receiving Offense-12th
PPG-10th



Number 1 in Kicking and Punting though

The Bama game confirms one thing

---

What it confirmed was that Ed O shite the bed against Bama again and he will continue to do so until he brings in a capable OC.

At season's end, Ed will boast about his 11-2 or 10-3 record just like Les Miles did, and totally ignore how we are always so frightened of Bama to the point of embarrassing results.

Screw the record, if you can't field a team that can compete with Bama, then Ed needs to go.

Again, everyone is so quick to fire off the (take your pick):

Ensminger sucks!! Fire him!!
Orgeron sucks because he hired Ensminger!! Fire him!!
Alleva sucks!! Fire him!!
Burrow sucks!! Play pretty boy Brennan!!
Same offense as Miles!! WTF!!

Then you say:

If you consistently lose the LOS, offense will have a bad day. SO yes, you have to win the LOS.

---

But then you say:

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!

---

Before this game posters said we needed short routes to quickly dump the ball over the middle and on short slants.

I saw maroon jerseys waiting for these exact plays saturday night.


So back to what I said in here already...

quote:

---

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.

---

So if you lose at the LOS, you lose. And if you lose at the LOS, it doesn't matter WHICH scheme you play. Yet, somehow there is a scheme we can switch to that will exempt us from this rule.


Take a step back for a second...
If it has been consistent that we lose at the LOS, isn't it time to toughen up in the trenches?


By the way, I'm still waiting for someone to tell me the offensive scheme that allows you run the ball & complete passes (for positive yards), convert 3rd downs, & score TD's when you get beat off the snap and manhandled every down on the LOS.


By the way, this leaves out other issues of concern like:
Running routes well enough to get open
Catching the ball when it is thrown near you
*I'm still leaving the run game out because if you lose the LOS, forget running the ball.

Lol, uga game was the 1 game the offense was good.

LSU ranks in the bottom of ncaa and sec. it's terrible.

---

I wish our fans would've realized this early on. They set themselves up for failure.

The only thing that the Bama games confirms is that this Bama team is in a totally different Class than any other team in the NCAA.

Tell me one other NCAA team LSU could not give a good game.

You act like we don’t lose to other teams. Or look like shite against inferior teams.

I mean, it’s like you forget that we lost to Troy and we’re handed the biggest loss from Miss st in history last year.

This isn’t about Bama. Bama is just a measuring stick that is confirming how far we have fallen. We used to be on that level

Wrong thread.

I do believe that! Combine that with Saban's comets of: 'this the most complete team I've ever seen' and 'when win the toss Ihope we elect to kick arse.' These are very unusual for Saban and I think he has the horses to back it up.

I never claimed to be better than anyone. Let's straighten that out up front.


You just said our oline is better that 90% of the ncaa. Off talent and instinct alone we ought to beat most teams off the line play after play by your assertion. We haven't, have we.

Right, it's because you're wrong.

My opinion is that you need talent and coaching, and this other little thing called execution.

We need to work and strategize, and then execute.

Did you read me say anywhere in this thread to fire or bench this player or that player? No. I've seen and many others have seen glimpses of what this offense is capable of, and I want more of it. I frigging wish they brought a whole lot of it saturday night. A lot of factors influence what 11 dudes wind up doing on the field. More so when the other 11 dudes are doing to exploit your weaknesses.

I haven't said bench this lineman who blew this assignment or even bench that guy who can't catch. They're our team and coaches, and fans (at least where I come from) are supposed to support them. Not fire them or bench them because they lost to a college team that could probably beat a few NFL teams right now. We've only lost one other game.

Any line of work, if resources are not being used to their potential, you look to management. That is the coaches. They have to figure out what needs to be tweaked and fix it.

Did the oline play the at the same level against bama, UGA, auburn, Florida? No.

Same or very similar talent on the field each game with very different outcomes. Coaching? Execution?

That's on the tigers (coaches and players...the TEAM) to figure out. And they all need to improve somewhere. If I had the answer I think I'd be making a lot of money coaching football.
