I mean yes his entire offense is predicated around 3 things; getting the players with the ball in space, going extremely up tempo, and being very agressive on 4th downs

He got lucky last year and almost lost at Oklahoma

He was up late in the fourth by one score in his own territory. He went forward on fourth down and didn’t get it, but there was a penalty.

Could’ve been catastrophic

Lane might troll all of us and run a Les Miles style offense.

IMO it depends how quick this team gells. I still have some concerns about Sam Leavitt's recovery. Or the quality of their backup QB's.

We should get a good idea of LSU's talent and potential after that first game against Clemson.

I have complete confidence in Coach Kiffin's ability to field a winner - he's proven that time and again. I'll even go out on a limb and predict a 11-1 record. That's how much I trust Lane Kiffin.

The clock keeps ticking.

Will the backup offensive lineman use a two or three-point stance on third down and four, or less, on their end of the field, at home, moving toward the north end zone, when temperatures are less than 70 degrees on odd days in October?

When Bobby Bowden was building Fla.St back in the day ,he would be very liberal with trick plays and taking chances. When they became a power those trick plays and taking chances went out the window. I think once he gets LSU back to national prominence he won’t be as much of a gambler, he won’t need to be.Allthough he still will take a few chances just not as many.

I hope not. Going for it on 4th down is always the wrong decision regardless of the situation and the opponent.
