But as Gings5 said, and I agree with him on this. The problem with blaming the OL for some of Durham's issues is that Berry beat him out for the #1 RB position and was more explosive when he was in the game. Same QB...same OL...did better. No, as I've said the 2 main reasons that Berry is better than Durham are:
1) he sees the LOS better and is able to find even a tiny hole that is not necessarily where it was designed to be
2) he is much quicker than Durham...NOT faster per se, but quicker. The time it takes for Berry to get to the LOS after the handoff is less than it take Durham. That is incredibly important when as everyone agrees, the OL isn't exactly going to be holding their blocks long...or holding the DL's jersey. :rotflmao:

Wow, you keep digging the hole deeper and deeper. BTW, if you really think that this forum is full of idiots, how moronic does it make you look that you are posting here? :rotflmao: You are fence post dumb!

I saw the BCS/computer rankings that were used before and should have been used this time. You could see from this committee that politics ruled the day. They felt like they HAD to put in an ACC team after what happened 2 years ago...couldn't put in Virginia...couldn't put in Duke...so Miami, come on down! Notre Dame was ABOVE both Alabama and Miami, so there's that.

I will start off and give kudos for using "you're" properly. But after that, you sounded quite the patronizing poster who BTW should take your (also used properly BTW)own advice and not start a useless post.

No, when I throw the word "dummy" around, it fits.

Hey a-hole, buy a calendar. He said "LAST YEAR", dummy! You must be a miserable excuse for a human being.

I don't have faith in Durham...I used to. His repetitive ankle and foot injuries are a concern. He has NOT shown quickness despite showing speed...NOT the same thing. Berry is both quick and fast...Durham only the latter. And I have dumped on the OL as much as anyone but i have seen SEVERAL instances where there was a hole, not where it was supposed to be, and he didn't see it. He doesn't see the LOS well...doesn't "run to daylight" well.

None of that is on the OL...that is on him for not doing better when the play isn't blocked where it is supposed to be blocked.

The way I read this and it is according to Ed Orgeron, so take it for what it is worth even if I'm interpreting this right, Lane Kiffin was being considered for the LSU job BEFORE this season. He asks Orgeron LAST year what he thought of the LSU job which sounds like to me he had been contacted.

Yeah, another poster having no idea what they’re talking about.

I was NOT the poster :lol: but to be fair to him, he might have been looking at the 247sports site at the LSU commits/signed list. In past years, they have had a little clock for those signed who were going to enroll early. They still have 0 "little clocks" listed for any LSU signee. So maybe 247sports doesn't do that anymore...or they do it really, really bad. :rotflmao:

Durham regressed despite being injured last year and having the same OC both years

I guess you didn't see the short interview with Durham a couple of weeks ago that was linked here, AND you may not believe him but this is what he said.

When asked about being injured last season, a reporter wanted to know how he was this season health-wise. He said "Actually, I'm hurt more this season that I was last season."

"You look for the game, get outscored 27 points from behind the arc. That's the difference in the game."

I wish that was the only reason LSU was blown out.

Wait, are you insinuating that LSU getting outrebounded by 13 boards had something to do with the loss also. :rotflmao:
