Ensminger is not going anywhere. Orgeron is going with who he trusts and who is running the offense that Orgeron wants.

Freshmen and sophomores are all that LSU has. Any decent player leaves after 3 years.

LSU's analysts had been studying Alabama since the summer. They had every game broken down in detail for the last two years. Orgeron went to the Administration and almost doubled his number of analysts from last year to this year just for the Bama game. They knew everything there was to know about Bama. There were no surprises. However, when your offensive and defensive line is getting their asses handed to them for the entire game,planning goes out the window.

LSU was shutout but they are the only team this season to get Alabama's best for 4 quarters. Everyone else was getting blown out and they scored against Bama's backups.

Now we have talent? This is the same crew that predicted we would be 6-6 or 7-5 this year.

Admit it. This coaching staff has done a really good job this year!

I hear people saying open it up. How can you go to a pass heavy offense when you cannot protect the passer and your QB is not that accurate a thrower?

Also, passing the ball is hard. The amount of processing that a receiver and a QB has to do per play takes a while to develop, more than one year unless they are just exceptional mentally.

Another factor is the limits of personnel. I know that Steve loves to run an Ace formation, (Two TEs and two flankers, one back) but he has not had two healthy TEs all year long. So he is not able to run everything that he would like to.

Our OC is good enough. No one works harder. Heck the man sleeps in his office some nights. As Burrow improves his passing and the O line improves their protection, the offense will thrive.

Alabama was an anomaly. That was the best college team that I have ever seen. No one is going to hang with Bama this year, just give them the trophy now.
By the way they are young. They will return almost their entire team for next year.

Just pointing out that everyone wants to be critical of the offense but our defense has its share of problems.

A coach can scheme his arse off but ultimately it comes down to personnel.

I see more threads and posts on here bashing Odell than anything else, but sure. Odell is a diva. Odell is one of the top 3 WRs in the league. Odell is good for recruiting. Odell works hard and wants to win. Odell has never been in trouble with the law. Those are facts. DWI

So he has accomplished something because he has not been arrested?

His actions are not justifiable. He is acting like a bad team mate. If you have a problem with someone's play then ask to talk to them behind closed doors YOU DO NOT GO TO THE MEDIA His actions in the past could have been severely criticized by his team mates in the media but they were not. You would think he would provide the same courteousy.

If he is unhappy with the team ask for a trade. Personally I would trade him, he is too big a disruption to the TEAM

Despite what others would have you believe in this day and age it is still a TEAM SPORT

Defense was never Miles' problem. He had to change his offensive philosophy to stay and he refused to do it.

The Tigers have a stretch with Georgia, Miss State, and then Alabama. They are not coming out of that unscathed.

Ultimately it comes down to who has the most horses. I feel we need some more up front.

The Tigers are ranked #6 and that is great.Some "experts" are even putting them into playoff contention and that is good. I keep wondering though are they THAT good.

They beat what I feel was an over-rated Miami team. They did not exactly dominate an outclassed SLU and there were times in the Auburn game that I felt LSU couldn't stay on the field with them.

Can they take down Georgia or push Alabama to the limit as a college football playoff team could do?

What are your thoughts exactly how good is LSU?
