He’s Teddy Bridgewater / Jeff Blake. He can move, but he really doesn’t have the running playmaker gene.

All off season, we said we need to survive the 1st quarter of the season to allow for the young OL to gel and develop some as well as Nuss and WR’s to mesh a bit more.

What changed?

So if he thinks they were out coached, he should just lie about it and tell us what we saw with our eyes didn’t happen?

You’ve been watching Trump too long.

Ole Miss
Bama

To a lesser degree, UF, A&M, OU.

Gooden, Pybern, Payton all showed out on the line.

Delane, Cooley, Haulcey…. what a defensive transfer class! Wow!

dude looked like trash as a prospect, would have bet my house on him sucking.

He definitely seems confident.

Yeah 2022 was just as bad on ST as 2023 was on defense. Also last year I have no clue WTF was going on between Slade Roy and Peyton Todd but we could not get a snap and hold down for a FG to save our lives it was ridiculous.

Forgot about that despite never seeing anything that shitty in my lifetime.

I’ll start by saying I’ve been very happy with BK at LSU. I really appreciate the analytical nature and consistency in how he runs the program—it feels like a “Saban-lite” version of The Process.

That said, BK’s special teams have, without question, been the worst I’ve seen in my time as an LSU fan (going back to the Eddie Kennison days).

For decades, our coverage and return units were consistently among the strongest aspects of the team—until BK arrived. I’ve heard the struggles chalked up to a lack of depth, which I can understand to a degree, but it’s hard to buy completely. I don’t recall LSU teams of the 90s being stacked three-deep everywhere, yet special teams were still a weapon.

This year, though, there’s no excuse. We’ve got 3–4 legit LSU-caliber return threats (Brown, Thomas, Anderson, Watkins), and based on the two-deep, our coverage and return units should be loaded with dawgs.

I want the ball at the 40 after kickoffs again. I want consistent 15–25 yard punt returns. I want to see us flying downfield and knocking heads off on coverage.

Worst case scenario IMO, we are just good (floor) on Offense. I kind of think we have the same floor on D, maybe slightly lower.

However, If LSU makes special teams great again, that could be the difference between being a good team and being a great team this season.

I know what you tried to say. I'll take 17 returning starters all day and every single year. frick Ohio State. The same Clemson group last yr lost 1 more game than that 20 million did. Ill take chemistry and returning players all day.

Mentioning wins and loss record from teams from different conferences is so 1990.

Who the F cares that Clemson had a better record (barely) than us last year. They played UGA… the rest of their schedule was garbage. The one other mid to upper tier SEC team they played waxed their arse at home (South Carolina). SMU almost embarrassed them in the ACC championship.

I think their offense is average.

By all reasonable expectations, our Offense will be good to very good. Good is the floor as that was who we were last year.

By all reasonable observations, Our D is finally stacked again. We’ve got 2 real dudes at nearly every position. The past 3 years, we barely had a real dude at every other position.

Watch and bookmark this shite, we win by double digits…
