I know in the second half versus SELU we were only sending out 2 receivers. My thoughts were it would be better to spread the field and give Butrow more quick options to get the ball out of his hands. It felt like we were just trying to get the game over with in the second half.

Do you think we go to a 2 receiver set or spread out Auburn?

I'm sure Slinger and O have a brilliant gameplan devised for this week. Get your butts ready.

Spread them out with receivers & a RB then make Burrow kill the defense with his hot read especially if the defense blitzes. Throw where to area where the blitz is coming from.

It worked against South Eastern, I'm expecting to see more of this moving forward

You gonna have to spread Auburn out, you know they will put 8 or 9 in the damn box.

This was my exact thought when SELU was loading up the box. I figured we would see Ensminger spread the field out in the second half to get some reps in. But instead we just pounded the ball. Made me mad, i hope to god we can pound the football against an FCS school.

Well, one thing they could do is run a split back set and actually use our RB's to block and/or catch out of the backfield. But it's been illegal now for about 10 years for LSU to throw passes to RB's out of the backfield, so there goes that idea.

I agree. I think we’ll see a tremendous improvement to 321 ypg in offense

I think spreading the field and having a quick passing game would be harder for defenses to defend...also going up tempo
