    IMHO, The problem with LSU, when it comes to playing Bama, is not lack of talent, its a lack of creativity by the offensive staff...With that being said, LSU will never and i mean NEVER beat Bama with a pocket passer...Look it up, every team that has defeated Bama had what in common? Scrambling qbs, spread hurry up offense...Which happens to be the very type of offense coach o doesnt care for....Get use to it Tiger fans...we are dealing with Les Miles part 2.. win a lot of games every year and continue to lose to Bama every freaking year......LSU needs to stop hiring all these OLD SCHOOL HEAD COACHES.....

    So you have a problem with Aranda as the D coordinator? We need better players plain & simple.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the vast majority of our drafted players have been from the defensive side of the ball.

    Who gets more blame? E or Cregg? The WRs were not impressive. Disappointed in the run game.

    Great coaches exceed expectations, the offensive performance was disappointing.

    There are quite a few high profile RBs and WRs. I think we have OL innthe NFL. I bet our offensive recruiting rankings are pretty good. It sure seems like underutilized talent.

    I think Bama deserves a lot of credit, but our stats have been sucky all year. O needs to right the ship; E and position coaches might not be the innovative minds we need.

    And the running back drafted by Jacksonville appears to be a bust. OBJ is the only WR that comes to mind.

    Actually, Ensminger has done a decent job this season. Problem isn't the O-Coordinator, it's the O-Line. If you can't block for the running game or protect the QB in the passing game, no O.C. is going to be successful. Blaming Ensminger misses the mark, IMHO.

    We need to recruit better on the Offensive Line and develop the guys we do recruit. That seemed to be the biggest problem tonight.

    Fournette had over 1000 yards last year as a rookie. He has had a hamstring problem this season so far. A hamstring is not a serious rehabilitation type injury. Way, way too soon to call him a bust.

    You need to post more often. What part of west Texas are you in?
