It took a while for the running game to catch up to the rest of the offense. LSU should have been gashing teams like this all year.

The fronts are super soft and the holes are huge

If you put Leonard Fournette in this offense he breaks every record under the sun.....either that or Joe throws for 7500 yards. Teams would have to pick their poison.

Holy fricking stupid. Fournette in this offense would be ridiculous.

Big difference in style of the offense and the position LF got the ball.

We were much more predictable and less spread out. Teams came in with a game plan to stop the run and did not respect the pass. Now teams are coming in with a gam plan to stop the pass and this is leaving opportunities for the run game.

How quickly we forget? LF7 rushed 1958 yards in Miles offense. I’m scared to see what he would have done with a Spread attack full time. Remember he played in that system in High school in NOLA. I saw firsthand. He would have rewrote the record books. Please stop it

I don't remember a RB with better hands than CEH. And he seems to get better every game.

CEH is now 2nd in the LSU record book for catches by a RB in a single season with 39. Needs another 11 to tie.

If he would have gotten another 4 carries for 9 yards against Arkansas, he would have qualified/set the LSU record for yards per rush.

This fanbase is filled with low IQ retards. This is the correct answer here. The wholesale changes with the offensive scheme & philosophy has had a tremendous impact in creating running lanes in the run game.

Opposing defenses can no longer creep both safeties within 5-6 yards of the line of scrimmage or run blitz at will otherwise Burrow & the receivers will make them pay for their actions.

Both Guice & Fournette put up some ridiculous numbers playing in Miles outdated offensive scheme but they would put up video game numbers in this current offense. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a buffoon. Also, anyone who feels that it's necessary to shite on a former player to praise a current player is an idiot, sidewalk fan.

This is the truth as well. The passing game clicked right out of the gate but it took awhile for the run game to get it's footing. It took the offensive line more time to adjust to the new blocking scheme & CEH to get a feel for where the holes would develop. Its all clicking now both run & pass.

In fairness to LF and DG, they didn’t get to play in this offense.

CEH has been incredible, but it’s scary to think what prime LF could have done in this system.

no need to lift up one player by shitting on others. We were very fortunate to have those guys. Choosing LSU over bama cost LF a lot, including a Heisman, which comes with a lot of money and prestige. LF deserves our complete respect and appreciation. DG for the simple fact of not minding competing against LF and DW.
