quote:1. We should be able to be as vanilla as possible and still score at will against SELA
Help me to understand, all who believe we were vanilla last night to not give Auburn anything to game plan against so that we may surprise them.
2. Why is it only LSU being vanilla? All these other schools are putting up big offense agains shite schools, why are we the only ones that "save our playbook?"
3. How has the "saving the playbook" argument worked every year when LSU fans do it after 2 weeks? Answer: Not good.

Vanilla or not this offense sucks and that's the bottom line right now. It can improve but do we have the coaching to improve it is the question.

All in one game. Why? We now have to prepare to defend all of that. And they did it successfully because it was a cupcake, so we have to assume they have the plays, can execute the plays, and will call the plays.
What did AU learn from our game?
Blitz, they'll go max protect, jam the WRs to slow the QB clock, get sack/throwaway/breakup

Look at the plays in the second half and it is clear as day they went vanilla.
And you still missed the point.
A team like SELA should not be able to shut LSU completely down even if we went 100% vanilla and ran the most basic of plays ever.

Exactly. And I still see people in here claiming we held back as to not show Auburn our hand. Thus completely ignoring the rest of my OP. WHAT ABOUT EVERY TEAM WE FACE AFTER AUBURN???? Why are there some who believe we’re just “holding back” until Auburn? Wouldn’t make more sense to practice our full offense against inferior opponents to work out kinks? I mean if we’re so worried about Auburn and all. If we see something different against Auburn I will gladly eat tons of crow.

That is on Burrow. I know he said he isn't the sliding type, but he's going to have to become the sliding type real quick. It dosen't matter who the opponent is, your QB taking hits like a RB will not fly for long.
