In all seriousness though guys, do you think it’s time to get a new strength and conditioning coach.

The problem starts with Zeraux and the good ole boys network ends with E. Everything that was exposed last night was there in the SLU and LaTech games. Period.

Ensmingers play calling has been pretty good. however, it doesn't matter what play you call when you can't run between the tackles, you can't run wide,
Then why did Ensminger keep calling the same fruitless crap? First and 10, down 22 points...run the ball between the tackles. Was his game plan to get us into 2nd and 8 or 9 all night? That's certainly how it appeared.

I actually agree. The Georgia win gave people false hope though. Good thing Fromm played like shite.

8 quarters

0 points

Less than 400 yards offense

With the 2016 and 2018 roster...that's two very different rosters. You can't blame lack of talent on the line or at skill positions for both of those teams. LSU has recruited better than that. And yet Ensminger couldn't get any points in 8 quarters of football

Ensminger covered up LSU’s deficiencies all year, Ala exposed them big time, no elite talent in the Oline.

LSU will never beat Ala without 5 star linemen, Coach O it appears can beat any team but Ala, just like Charlie Mac

Yea when the OC's gameplan for a weak oline is long developing play action passing. Who's fault is that?

When you have a weak oline you put your qb in shotgun and have quick routes to throw too not make him turn around for 2-3 seconds to run a play fake that no body is biting on because you have negative rushing yards
Am I remembering correctly... on the near-safety with about 4min left in first half, was not Burrow under center with an empty backfield?

Magee gave up edge to Moses, almost untouched. Couldn't see, I bet you WRs didn't get off the line smooth AND/OR were running deeper routes.

IF I remember this correctly it is a perfect example of a primary issue(s) in one play:

- scheme. If are backed up and want to pass why are you under center with an empty backfield?

- OL. Obvious. Warned y'all about Magee. Yes, Deculus is struggling and not where we want him to be. Magee is not the answer however.

- WRs, gotta help a brother out and get the job done. We have 6'4" 220 physical specimens getting in slap fights, and losing, with 6'2" 185 lb freshmen DBs.

What? We have been garbage on offense all year. Before the bama game our offensive production was ranked in the high 80's and 90's in every meaningful statistic.

So, you are saying that OC bears no responsibility for Oline performance or lack thereof?

There are ways around it. Ensminger has no clue.

Because those o lines sucked as well. Said it back then as well....good enough for average SeC teams....not against Bama...
